Customers are pleased with the color, ease of use, wireless functionality, and overall quality of the Joy-Con controllers. Many appreciate the ability to play multiplayer games, the battery life, compatibility, and appearance. However, some customers have expressed concerns about drifting, size, and connection issues. Despite these concerns, the controllers are generally well-received.

    I bought these because my previous Joy-Cons were suffering from major drift issues. I've had them for a few months now and they seem to be fine. I really hope they don't fall victim to the same issues as the other ones. Nintendo has said that they have fixed the issue with newer controllers but the jury is still out on that. I'll definitely follow-up on this review in the future.

    If you bought a Nintendo Switch with the included neon blue and red Joycons, these are perfect for completing a set of each color. That's because when you buy this 2 pack it includes the opposite color side from what's included with the system. My kids and I absolutely love it. -1 star because the Joycons sometimes tend to have "drifting" issues where, after months of use, the switch believes the sticks are moving on their own while playing. Nintendo was able to fix this problem for me twice for free by sending them in for repair. To be clear, I have not had any problems with this particular set I bought at best buy. The problem popped up with the ones that came with the system at launch back in March of 2017.

    In person, these don't quite match the pictures. The pink is a little more on the reddish side (but still a bright pink) and the green is a little deeper, more like a lime than watermelon). Other than that, these things work great! Used them to replace my OG gray ones that one finally got the dreaded drift on the joystick.

    My son is very happy with these controllers. His first set finally died after a year. So we decided to have him pick out a new set. So far they work well and hold battery well.
