    Bought this as a gift for my wife. She loves using it! Says it fit her hamds very well, is easier to hold than the individual joycons, and tshe loves the color and lights. Our kids like the led lights so much we ultimately bought a second to avoid arguments.

    The controller is a great mix of style and performance. The design with customizable RGB lighting looks amazing, and the ergonomic build is super comfortable for long gaming sessions. It pairs easily with my Nintendo Switch, offering responsive buttons and lag-free wireless connectivity. The customization options through the PDP Control Hub app are a nice bonus, letting you map buttons and tweak the lighting to your liking. Battery life is decent but could be better for extended play. Overall, it’s a solid controller that combines aesthetics and functionality. Highly recommend it!

    Switch Controller - Good for Switch and Only Switc

    Its a really beautiful controller that feels really well in your hands; however, it really only works best with Switch. When you try to connect it to Steam, you get some stick issues where the system cant read that youve pushed the sticks all the way forward so you end up walking around everywhere.

    PDP Controllers Better than Joy-Cons & PowerA

    This is the controller you want to buy if you're looking for an alternative to Joy-Cons. I'm not a gamer, I'm a dad that plays every now and then with the kiddos. The weight and size of this controller is perfect for adult hands and my kids prefer using the PDP controller over the Joy-Cons and the PowerA controller we have. The battery life gives us hours of gaming. The waves are a bit bright but you only notice them if you're not holding onto the controller. I would highly recommend the PDP controller over the Joy-Cons and PowerA, however, some games, like Mario Party, require users to use Joy-Cons. You may pay a little more for this controller but it's worth it. When you find a deal, don't hesitate and buy the PDP controller.

    Got these for my kids so they can all play together on Mario Kart World. Easy to set up, no issues connecting with the Switch 2. Was able to purchase 2 for the price of one Nintendo brand contoller.

    I love this controller. Super comfy grip and fun! But I would not use it for games like Mario Cart or racing games. The buttons under the handle, near the palms of your hands always get tapped when playing, and it triggers menus during your play.

    Good value, good performance, fancy RGB (per the wife’s request). Grabbed this for Switch 2, as it’s compatible.

    Got this for my wife. She loves it. It’s really light weight but is made fairly well. I’ll never touch it for fear of breaking it. But it’s great for the price.
