    Pros- easy to use and very responsive Cons- not a huge fan of either color,knowing Nintendo they will have lots of "special " editions. These work great and are very easy to get used to. However, I'm not a fan of either of the launch color sets and there will probably be quite a few new sets coming out in the next 6 months. Stick with the launch controls until you see one you really want. The price is too high to buy more than one pair.

    All Switch owners need an extra pair of joycons. I already owned a blue-red pair from when I bought the Switch. I was super happy to find that i can mix the colors so now instead of two blue-red pairs, the controllers are configured so you can match them blue-blue and red-red. The controllers are very responsive and have 1 year Nintendo warranty.

    Docked one star because I bought these only after the left one on my first set started drifting. However, the colors are beautiful and so far no issues.

    Decidedly not fruit

    Having had no prior experience with fruit-colored and shaped peripherals, I can unequivocally say now that these are not actual pieces of fruit. They do, however, expertly function as Nintendo Switch controllers and do not require peeling, chopping, or de-seeding. I'm a little disappointed in myself for not going to the grocery store first, as I might have saved some money. tl:dr - Do not be fooled into eating these.

    i bought this pair to skin and re-skin with a set of third-party atomic purple covers for a friend's gift, and it was a bit difficult to disassemble/reassemble not due to any mechanical difficulties so much as just how compact/tiny everything is. i suppose it goes to show what an efficient piece of hardware this is. sturdy, too, as despite initial missteps the units still functioned (these were corrected, ofc)

    Four stars only because I think they are a little small and can be awkward at times. Otherwise they're the quality you would expect from Nintendo.

    Joy-Cons

    Got these joy-cons to add color to my switch. If you are going to buy Joy-Cons BUY THE PROTECTION PLAN! Joy-cons are notorious for drifting after long hours of use. This has been an issue since the launch of the system and hasn't changed. So it's worth the $20-$30 to be able to come in and get them replaced that day instead of shipping them to Nintendo for them to be repaired and being short controllers for several weeks while you wait.
