    I loooove the color of these joy cons! I've been using them for about a month and have had no issues with it so far. I bought these as back up because I heard that the Nintendo joy sticks can drift after a while but it has been fine.

    These Joy Cons are functional and necessary if you’re using multiple controls. Downside is expense.

    Great fun colored joy-cons. These are cool because technically they can be 2 separate controllers or 1 controller. All the multiplayer party games you could think of work natively with joy-cons, and they're well made.

    These cost way too much, but what ya gonna do. They never last long and seem to need to replace them once a year. The knock off ones cost less but do not work well.

    I like the matte feel of these joy cons. It’s sweet to have these with the protection Best Buy so when they eventually drift. So far so good. I enjoy joy cons in general because of the freedom I have to hold them in any position.

    It's an older color scheme, but one that I like as it's not too crazy colorful. Truth be told, I rather these came with the swithc rather than the red/blues. I do like some of the newer colors, but if you have a need for an extra set, this does the job.

    I have used non-official controllers. A waste of time. I now only use officially licensed products. I will never buy the cheaper ones again. These connect easily, respond quickly, analog precision, and are durable. Well worth the extra cost.

    Purchased the Pink & Green Switch controllers so that I could have an additional set for my Switch. Play it with my husband and we each have a set and then we bring it over to my family and we play with 4 at a time. Love the colors as well!

    These respond great and the charge lasts quite awhile. My only complaint is they are bit overpriced for a controller.

    So far , so good! We will see how long they last. Several problems occurred with the original controllers.Something tells me that Nintendo knew the controllers that came with the switch wouldn’t last. Hopefully these will.

    I bought these to replace my original grey ones, which had terrible drift. I think they are a little overpriced, but if I want all the features of first-party controller (gyro is a must for me), then I need to pay first-party prices.

    Bought this second set to play 4player mk8 with the kids. Works great. Thou small,,, I never feel hindered by it. My problem is having to rotate the controllers on the switch while docked to avoid battery failure. I know they sell a charging stand, but for those who don't have it... inconvenient
