I love there are two back buttons like a Playstation pro controller. They last a long time before needing to charge, and the controller has a premium quality feel. The analog sticks for this controller last a lot longer than the joy con sticks (stick drift issues). The major downside is that there is no rumble. Other than that, this is a great alternative to the pro controller.

If you're looking for a wireless controller that won't break the bank then I recommend this controller. My old wired controller broke and I needed a new controller but wanted wireless and I'm pretty happy with it. This controller has the option to map your controls. The battery life if pretty decent as well. I have small hands and this controller fits perfect. My husband that has bigger hands wishes it was slightly bigger but definitely beats the joy cons.

This controller has come in clutch for me. After not wanting to shell out the extra $ for the Nintendo branded remote, I took a chance on this one. The reviews were right as this works perfectly fine as a substitute. Feels great on the hands as I'm able to play games like Mario Kart for hours on end with no issues.

Got it for only $40 and it feels pretty good the buttons on the back feel kinda cheap but the rest of the controller is nice and premium definitely better than other controllers selling for $60+ in my opinion.

It’s a great controller! Works as intended and the lights are a nice addition. The light programming can be a little tedious and complicated without the instructions, but works perfectly once set for turning on and off. Love that you can turn it low and conserve the battery but keep visibility at night and dark settings. Comfortable to hold and has a nice weight to it. Would definitely recommend.

This controller has my ideal ergonomics. It's comfortable to hold in my large, long-fingered, man child hands. The coating on the frame is smooth and feels nice to the touch.
The controller is matte black, so it doesn't show dirtiness. This is a blessing and a curse. Your friends won't be afraid to use the controller because they won't see it covered in grease and months of cheesy snack stains, but you may be less inclined to clean it. In my experience, not cleaning this controller regularly will lead to buttons sticking down when they are depressed.
I do not eat food while I play games, and I don't think that I'm a particularly heavy user. You must be diligent about cleaning this product. This is an issue with all controllers but I believe I experienced this issue earlier than with other controllers across a variety of consoles.
Outside of this issue the product is wonderful to use. As mentioned it feels great to hold, you can keep a solid grip on it, it pairs easily and has great range, and the buttons/sticks have a nice tactile feel and are very responsive. There are grip buttons, and a button under the middle of the controller. I haven't found a use for these yet but I appreciate having the option. The controller charges via a USB-C port which I am super happy about, and the controller holds a charge for much longer than I would expect.

I bought this computer for a wireless replacement to my wired pc controller as well as another option for my switch. While basic, it has been extremely solid, and the rechargeable battery is a plus.

Got this as a gift for my son and it connects perfectly to the Switch 2. He absolutely loves the design and couldn't be more happy with it. Can not wait to get more

This was a Christmas/Birthday gift for someone special and he loved it and it is working out fantastic, so glad we went into Best Buy and saw this, no other stores had what he wanted.

This controller is graphically appealing and easily links up wirelessly to your switch. It sits comfortably in your hands for playing the games on switch. Similar to a pro controller for its performance.

This is one of the best gaming pads I've tried. The ergonomics are very comfortable, and the texture has grip without being sticky. The buttons and joysticks are very responsive with minimal play. The battery lasts for several hours and holds a good charge. It's able to power on the Switch with the Home button as well, which many controllers will not.

I recently had the pleasure of trying out the PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch, specifically the Mario Mayhem edition, and I must say, it's an absolute game-changer for any Nintendo enthusiast.
From the moment I unboxed the controller, the attention to detail and love for the Mario franchise was evident. The iconic red and blue color scheme, coupled with the familiar images of Mario, Luigi, and other beloved characters, instantly brought a smile to my face. The controller exudes a nostalgic charm that pays a perfect homage to the iconic plumber's adventures.
One of the standout features of this controller is its wireless capability. The connection was seamless, and I experienced no lag during gameplay. The wireless range is impressive, allowing me to enjoy my favorite Nintendo titles from the comfort of my couch without being tethered to the console. The freedom to move around without compromising performance is a significant plus.
The build quality is top-notch. The controller feels sturdy and comfortable in my hands, and the buttons are responsive and tactile. The layout mirrors the traditional Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, making it easy for anyone familiar with Nintendo's controllers to adapt seamlessly. The addition of motion controls and vibration feedback enhances the gaming experience, adding an extra layer of immersion to every play session.
The PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller also boasts a fantastic battery life. I was able to enjoy hours of uninterrupted gameplay before needing to recharge, and the USB-C charging port ensures a quick and convenient power-up.
What truly sets this controller apart, though, is its affordability. Despite its premium features and special edition design, the PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller comes at a reasonable price point, making it an excellent choice for gamers on a budget.
In conclusion, the PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch - Mario Mayhem edition is a must-have for any Mario fan or Nintendo Switch owner. Its wireless convenience, solid build quality, nostalgic design, and budget-friendly price make it a standout choice in the crowded controller market. Upgrade your gaming experience and embrace the mayhem with PowerA!

Great controller for the price! Switch 1 and 2 compatible. The only thing you are giving up over the Pro Controller is the rumble feature and the NFC-related things

I love it feels so much better then holding the switch handheld as my hands begin cramping up after a while, My only complaint is the buttons the way they feel and sound when pushing not really the best, especially when playing games where you need to spam B for example.

This controller is a nice add to playing games on the Switch with your family—especially if you are looking for a larger controller than the mini ones that come with the Switch. No latency, easy to set up, batteries built in, and nice build quality compared to the more expensive Nintendo brand.
