    These work just like the other Joy-Con controllers. They’re really vibrant in their coloring. Everyone notices them when they come over. They really pop compared to the red and blue ones and especially the grey ones. As for use, they’re just like any Joy-Con controller. Work well within about 10 feet of the console. They can get spotty reception if there is something between them and the console. I keep the console docked below the TV. If I’m laying on the couch, the coffee table can be between my hands and the console. When this happens, I have had some issues with responsiveness. This is no different than other colors or the pro controller.

    Need More Controllers

    Seriously, you need more controllers. The console only comes with 1 set. Some games use half a joy-con, some games you use them together. I purchased all different colors.

    Great for Extra Players But Expensive

    These are great. They pair easily and everything but they are kind of expensive. Best part of the Switch is that it comes with 2 joy-con controllers which makes it possible for 2 players to play most games that are out so far. But I got these because they are too small for me to use so I use them in the controller base.

    These were a birthday gift for my daughter. The colors are fantastic, and just what she wanted. I dont understand why nintendo cannot figure out how to make a a joystick that isnt prone to drifting. This would be my only complaint and its overall with any of the nintendo joycons.

    The controllers are Nintendo and work as designed. Love the colors as my nephew went to Clemson. I know they’re Splatoon colors tho. I try to stick to original brand as much as possible to ensure the best game play. I’ve had third party before, sometimes I’ve been disappointed and sometimes not. But I’ve never been disappointed with Nintendo.

    The purple joy con immediately became my favorite colored joy con the second I took it out of the box. It's such a vibrant, dark purple and it matches perfectly with the Mario Red joy cons. The orange one is a lot more bright and I wish it was a similar darkness that the purple and Mario red ones have, but goes extremely well with the purple or the neon yellow just in time for fall. :) The controllers literally slide onto your Switch and can be used instantly. The time it takes to open the box and begin playing a game on your Switch couldn't be any faster!

    decent quality. Pricy. They do the trick. Officially licensed stuff from Nintendo is always priced higher. It doesn't necessarily mean that its the best built controller as we know about the joy con drifting problems years later its happening.

    Not much to say, I purchased them new. They work as they're supposed to. A bit pricey, but that's just a Nintendo thing, not BestBuy. I was able to get them affordably with points from my BestBuy card. While these weren't the colors I wanted, they are pretty cool. It also feels so much more study than the ones which originally came with my switch.

    My daughter broke one of the original paddles so we had to buy a new set. Originally she was looking for the blue but when she saw these neon ones she had to have them. She said she loves them because they are cool looking and sometimes when she is talking and not paying attention she would almost put the wrong one on the wrong side, since the originals were both gray. That doesn't happen with these because they are color coded. She said she loves these way more than the originals that came on the game. I would say they hold up exceptionally well. Overall very happy with our purchase :)

    A buddy of mine had purchased the Neon set Switch and I finally got a chance to see the colors of these Joy Cons up close. The blue and red neon really pops and I knew I needed to add them to my Switch. When my left joy con started having some thumbstick issues, I picked these up so I could keep playing while I sent my original gray one in for repairs. Still have these on even after getting it back because I love the colors so much. That aside, they function just like any other Joy Con does. Well worth it if you want/need to add another pair of Joy Cons to your Switch for multiplayer play.

    The price is a little high… but other than that they were really easy to connect to my switch. The colors are very bold if that’s what you’re into.

    Nintendo Switch Joy-Con - Neon Red/Neon Blue

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I got an extra set of joy-cons so that I could play with my friends or family. Pairing the new controllers was extremely easy. In my opinion, they are a bit pricey, especially if you have a lot of friends and family and you want more controllers. My Switch console came with the neon blue/neon red joy-cons, so I bought the neon red/neon blue joy-cons that way I could have matching color joy-cons on my Switch. The neon blue and neon red are such great colors! I also think the neon yellow and neon pink/neon green controllers are also very bright and colorful.

    If you're concerned about the price, I don't blame you. But you do have to consider that you're essentially buying 2 controllers, and also nothing really beats going from portable mode to docked mode and playing on the couch with your arms spread out for maximum gaming comfort. Then passing the other controller to a friend to play some light multiplayer. Recommended if you have occasional friends or family that like to play, not recommended for single player gamers.
