I bought these so all my family could play our Switch 2. I’m so glad they are bigger than the Switch 1 controllers. I love the chat button and using them as a mouse. Great addition of features.

Nintendo Joy-Con 2 (L)/(R) is a substantial upgrade over its predecessor, offering refined ergonomics and innovative new features that make it a must-have for the Nintendo Switch 2. The fragile rail system is gone, replaced by powerful magnetic connectors. They snap onto the console with a satisfying click and detach easily using a dedicated release button. Whether you're looking for a replacement or a second set for 4-player Mario Kart World, the Joy-Con 2 is well worth the purchase

The new JoyCons feel amazing. They are larger than the Switch 1 JoyCons and are more ergonomical. They feel natural and more sturdy in your hands which makes for better gameplay.

These new joy cons are expensive BUT they are fantastic. You can use each part separately as its own controller for many games which is nice. Some of the new "features" are a bit gimmicky (mouse control?) BUT can be pretty useful in some scenerios. Mario party jamboree for instance has some great mini games that use it perfectly. Overall i do wish it was cheaper but its nintendo so that will never happen.

My controllers got drift after a couple days. Hopefully a new pair resolves it, but still, the controllers are better than the previous gen.

Extra set of joycons is always useful. I like they can be split to be two controllers. A bit expensive but since they can be used as 2 controllers its worth getting them.

They were perfect. I dropped my switch2 and it bounced on 1 joycon. After that,the ZR button would get stuck. I was able to use it with the controller grip but not on the actual switch 2. The replacement made it so nothing happened.

Nintendo fixed most of the problems with the original Switch's JoyCons, added some neat features, but the problem of stickdrift remains. For what this cost, Nintendo could have given us hall effect sensors.
I'm not satisfied with them, but I'm not dissatisfied with them either.

Bought an extra set of Joy-cons for my wife. We play the entire family (across the U.S.) on game night and we all participate. It is a great time. If you have a switch and only one set of Joy-cons Purcase another set for your partner to play with you.

These controllers are much better than the Joy-Con originals. The size is a lot more comfortable to handle (they are a bit larger than the original switch Joy-Cons). The buttons do not stick, and the new magnetic clip works great!
