Customer Ratings & Reviews

If you aren’t using a pro controller for your Nintendo switch you need to. This are really comfortable, battery last for several days of heavy use, and they are sturdy and don’t drift like the joycons.

If you're one of those players who see a weighty controller as a sign of quality then you'll be very happy with the heft on the Switch Pro Controller for sure. Pleasingly, it also feels really solid - there are no awkward hollow plastic noises when you tap your way around the chassis, and button presses don't produce any awkward loud clicks. I own an Xbox Elite 2 Controller, an Xbox regular controller(released 2-3 yrs ago), a PS5 controller, and this Pro controller. This one has the best weight sensation for me, I'm a 5'2" girl. Yet I still feel this controller is a little bit overpriced (and the PS5 controller is even more overpriced). But you really get no choice when you want to have a controller on your Switch and can't buy anything better at a better price.

Great controller, no issues after playing on it for several years.

I love this controller except for one flaw. The controller feels comfortable to hold, is responsive and holds a long battery charge so you get to game for quite a while before having to recharge it. However, like the joy-cons, this controller will eventually start to drift. I've never had this issue with any other Nintendo controllers but I guess something is off with the Switch generation. On my 2nd controller after a few years.

It is without hyperbole that I personally call this controller the best console controller on the market as of right now. It just feels the most comfortable. Not to mention, through Bluetooth, it works as a PC controller as well. It's a tad pricey, but I am not at all disappointed with the quality.

If you have a Nintendo switch then you need this controller. The handles are textured to provide additional grip for long gaming hours. Extremely comfortable and very long battery life. I purchased mine at launch and charged this only once! If you have big hands like me don't rely on the joy cons.

Feels great in the hand, super comfortable, and ultra long battery life. It's pricey compared to the alternatives but very well worth it (and much better than using the joy-cons in the cradle).

This Nintendo Switch Pro controller is a great purchase. It’s well-made, comfortable, and adds value to gaming by allowing play away from the screen perfect for longer sessions without being too close to the screen. Highly recommend for Switch users!

im really lazy and dislike removijg my switch joy cons and worrying about their battery. So after playing smash and zelda with this controller and experiencing no drift i was sold. Great for the money and comfortable for bigger hands.

Joy-Cons, I love you, but...no. The Pro controller is so much more comfortable, and the battery consistently lasts me WEEKS without needing a charge. Haven't had a drift issue with the Pro as I did with my joy cons. Highly recommend.

Feels good and weighty. I think its overpriced but its still the best controller you can get for the switch.

The controller has a great feel and is a MUST have for Zelda and Splatoon. The feel is very comfortable even more than the ps4. Compared with the xbox though, it is definitely comparable. I would highly recommend if you could and want to dish out the money. I was very much against it as well until I tried my brother-in-laws. I fell instantly in love but wish Nintendo would lower the price on this... but hey, that what you get for Nintendo... Buy all these extra components that you wished you got with the system and overprice it all. #hardtobeanintendofan

The price was a bit steep but this controller is a must have for sports and racing games. A big improvement from the "controller" that comes with the switch. The battery life is exceptional as well. I really like the feel and texture.

Having to buy a new pro controller to replace one with stick drift isn’t my favorite circumstance, but buying from Best Buy did make the experience painless. Simple to find online, and delivered quickly. The pro controller itself remains pretty great despite eventually developing stick drift like all modern controllers; needs to be charged maybe once a week even when playing Tears of the Kingdom heavily everyday, and comfort which may be even better than the PS5’s dualsense controller.

This controller is a high quality addition to your gaming adventure. The controllers charge last for a very long time. It has a good weight to it and is compatible with all games. The rumble and motion features make it great to use with any game.

Very much a premium controller, sadly a premium price too. I have a very hard time using the joycons for any significant amount of time without hand cramps. This thing however is great. My only complaint is the price. I got it on sale around the holidays otherwise I probably would never have gotten one. Glad I got it. Battery life is great & it feels good in the hands. Comfortable to play on for long sessions which cannot be said for the joycons, even with the included grip.

Forget those tiny joycon controllers, THIS is where the action's at! Anyone who owns a Switch should plan on getting this controller sooner rather than later...the analog sticks are much bigger and more responsive, it has a proper d-pad, and at 35 to 40 hours of battery life it usurps even the PS4 and Xbox One standard controllers. It does still have some sync issues with the Switch hardware, but just make sure to connect it with your Switch via the included USB-C cable for the initial use and you should be fine. By the way, the included cord is only 3-ft long...so depending on where you sit you may want to invest in a longer cord for use while charging. The Pro d-pad still leaves something to be desired when used for fighting games, it's still much better than trying to struggle with the joycon buttons or analog stick. It's a bit pricey, but I still recommend it.

they fit in my hand - perfectly. they have good weight without being too light or too heavy. they charge quickly and hold the charge well for a good amount of play time. my only gripe is that the y, x, b, a button were designated a bit more clear (so i can see which is which) it is often hard to see the letters on the button. other than that - great controller.

I really can’t say enough good things about this Switch Pro Wireless Controller! The performance is flawless—every input is quick, precise, and responsive, making gameplay incredibly smooth. The build quality feels premium, and it’s comfortable enough for hours of gaming. Without a doubt, this is one of the best gaming purchases I’ve ever made!

This works great and I’ve experienced no “drift” when maneuvering tight spots in games!
