    Bought this for my kid to start playing games on the switch. I took it for a test spin, lights are a nice touch, changes from red to green when charging. The buttons though are slightly stiff, but once broken in, it will be on par with the nintendo pro controller button feel. Overall, me and the kid love it and recommend it for others.

    These are so cool to play with. The controllers themselves work pretty much as you'd want, but being able to play with the colors is great fun!! My wife and I have claimed our controllers with the different colors. Being able to recharge vs the endless need for AA batteries is a huge bonus.

    So I bought 3 controllers at the same time when I bought my Nintendo switch. By far this was the one I liked the most. I went ahead and bought this same controller but the purple one. I highly recommend this controller to anyone that loves controllers with lights.

    This controller has great battery life and feels really good in your hands. I’d say the only flaw is that the instructions are through a QR code and it didn’t really take me to the actual manual? I had to search Google for the answers on how to map the controller and change the colors. Otherwise great.

    The controller works very well and the option to change colors is fun! Charge holds well and charging the device doesnt take long. Only complaint is I wished it vibrated like the main controllers.
