    Flawed D pad and analog triggers. Feels good in hand, but is pricey for what you get

    Very nice controller that feels great but we've had one issue where we can't reliably connect two of the joy cons and two of the pro controllers to our switch at the same time without one of the pro controllers dropping out sometimes. Someone mentioned this has happened to others but I"m not sure. Maybe just something to look up before purchasing.

    My grandsons love video games and use this daily! They tell me that it is fast and very responsive... they used it all summer and it still functions just as well as it did the first day!

    If you game a lot on the switch you need this controller. The joy cons just don’t feel right compared to this controller. A tad bit pricey but feels like an Xbox controller

    This controller is phenomenal, the joy grip is uncomfortable and poorly situated for real gaming. This controller makes a casual system feel like the elite gaming devices of the competitors.

    Bought this for my girlfriend to play switch games. The default controller is not great ergonomically, so this is an improvement.

    I find it easier to play with then using the jot sticks and making a(n) smaller controller, with all the new ever controllers from the late 90s, it just feels a lot easier...

    This is motion control capable as well: just as you would use the two Switch controllers separately for motion control, there are motions you can make with this controller. Very Cool.

    Great controller. None of the button stick and there’s no ‘walk’ to the joysticks. Would 100% recommend

    Personally I prefer using my Xbox One controller on my Switch using my 8BitDo adapter but my Switch Pro Controller is a close second. My only real complaint with this controller is that they use nearly identical sticks as the Wii Nunchuch which have very little grip

    Using the Pro Controller is so much butter than the JoyCon controllers. And I love that it uses a USB-C connection for charging.

    While the joycons are great, this controller adds the home base feel to the system, and makes maneuvering around games easy and works great as a second player controller when needed.
