This is a great controller and performs exactly as described. It connected instantly and the buttons all work and feel great.
One issue I seem to be having is that when i plug the USB in to charge through the switch dock, it doesn't work. The light blinks and then stays off, indicating it's not charging. This is extremely strange, because when the switch comes out of sleep mode, the light goes on and is steadily charging. It's not the cable because when I plugged it into the wall, it charges just fine. And I have other things in the dock USB that charge just fine while the switch is asleep. Could just be a minor flaw, but also sort of annoying.
I've read some reviews saying it feels a little cheap. I see what they are saying, but I think the top matte finish feels amazing and the buttons and joysticks feel sturdy. I do think $50 is a little steep for this controller, but I believe you are paying for the fact it is a licensed controller.
I would recommend this to a friend

Perfect solution to the joycon drift issue. These controllers made by PowerA are great and I have had zero interference issues when using them. This particular controller is also rechargeable unlike some of the first PowerA remotes. This is a must have if you are a switch owner!

I like playing my switch docked if I know I’m gonna be playing a game for hours on end. Playing with the joycons in the little thing but over time my hand starts to cramp. I got a cheap controller but it needed AA battery’s and it felt cheap. This controller however feels like the real deal. I can charge it and i can play for a whole week straight without changing it again. I also love how it has some Weight to it.

I bought this for my wife who plays Animal Crossings and various Mario games. She absolutely loves it and wishes we would have bought it sooner. I originally got her the 8bitdo sn30 Pro+ Controller, and while it was constructed well, we had endless issues keeping it paired to her Switch. This controller, once paired, remains paired with the switch, unlike the 8bitdo. This controller is an excellent pickup at $40.

I love PowerA products. They are one of the best 3rd party companies. We got this with our Switch OLED upgrade, and didn't want to spend so much for another ProController. This controller is pretty much a ProController minus the rumble which is totally fine.

Pros:
-inexpensive compared to a new Xbox or PS controller
-paddles on the bottom come with it and you don't need to buy them separately
-great ergonomic feel
Cons;
-inexpensive compared to a new Xbox or PS controller (my brother doesn't treat it as well as I do and I've noticed the buttons slowly start to sit lower and lower)

I've been really impressed with this controller. The programmable buttons on the bottom come in really handy.
I love how I can wake the switch and controller both by hitting the home button. Hitting the power or sleep button on the console turns off the controller. It does everything I want it to do and more. Excellent value.

These controllers work. Make's hooking up the switch to your TV and a group of people huddles around playing a lot more fun. Would recommend these controllers. They are very light, feels a little cheap, but I own four so that's saying something. I left this review on the white version as well. Overall these controllers are great and are a must if you're playing mario kart or something else with friends.

The Controller is an Official Nintendo Product…I was confident & content this equipment will last for years to come…Good Graphics, doesnt rub off or peel, plus the “Turbo Buttons” are a plus on Smash Bros, or Mario Kart…
