    Comfortable controller to hold. Love that you can remap buttons to the two back buttons. Personally love that for games that require hitting the plus and minus buttons as those are awkward even on joy-cons. And of course love the lights. Being able to to change them or turn them off depending on my mood is a huge plus.

    Purchased for my Wife. She loves it. Works so seamlessly you would swear it was made by Nintendo. Quality feels very good as well. Not cheap or light weight.

    I’ve had major stick, drip issues with almost every joy con that I’ve bought… But these controllers seem to hold up very well… It’s also nice that these work with motion compared to some of the older pro controllers that don’t. I recommend this product.

    Feels almost the same as the switch 2 pro controller for significantly less in price. I have no complaints from a few weeks of use.
