    Not the same quality of the controller we got with our system. This one quit working after six months of use. Started dropping the connection and now it will not turn on. Went through the suggested trouble shooting steps but no solution found.

    after a while the joycons start to feel broken unlike a ps5 controller. It’s still a good controller but it definitely wears down quickly.
