    If you love playing your switch I would highly recommend this controller. It takes gameplay to another level. It feels really good in hand and it seems to be a high quality product.

    Fantastic controller with excellent battery life and comfortable grips/buttons. The only problem is my D-pad registers UP when I press left or right. I understand Nintendo customer service is addressing the issue, but until production units are consistently improved, buyers should be aware. Despite the problem, this is how I played Zelda for 120 hours last month, and in that game it was fairly easy to adjust. However, I do have nightmares of how this will affect super jumps in Splatoon 2...

    The Nintendo Switch Pro controller is an excellent piece of hardware. The controller is comfortable, the battery life is amazing, and you get a real D pad with the Pro controller. The controller is a little pricey, but it is completely worth it.

    Playing on this controller after getting used to the joycons controller is life-changing. It's comfortable and has a nice weight to it. Finally, it has a real + directional pad. The battery lasts very long.

    Bought two controllers as Christmas gifts for my nephew and his wife, and they love it! It's easy to use, and they love the feel of the controller in their hands,. Not too big or bulky.

    The Switch Pro Controller is a must have if you like playing with multiple people. It allows comfort for the user and plays wirelessly from a good distance for a long time. Highly recommend for any Switch player.

    If you have the option to buy this controller absolutely make it a mission to do so. The joycons are fine until you have a pro controller on hand, this is a controller I put on par with the Ps4's. Except the buttons feel sturdier, battery life is better, and there's a more satisfying weight to it. Input latency doesn't seem to be an issue and for the switch's current and announced offerings the pro controller looks like the way to go. Though the price is still a hard pill to swallow.

    Works great. I use this controller all the time instead of the joy cons. It just fits better in my hands. Takes a bit long to fully charge but the full charge lasts long and you can use a USB-C cord.

    This controller does it all and does it well! Wireless, rechargeable, motion control, Amiibo compatible, HD rumble, charging cable….i now have three of these and they all perform flawlessly. The buttons and joysticks have a good solid feel!

    The definitive controller for the switch. The joy cons have their specific use but this is what you need for everything else. Ignore the cheap alternatives if you can.

    This controller feels the best in my hands. I bought two so that I could always have one charged however the battery life exceeds expectations and that was probably overkill at least for me.

    This is pricier than other standard controllers for PS4/Xbox, but this is definitely worth it. Battery life lasts 40 hours, buttons feel great, and it's extremely comfortable. I played 100 hours of Zelda with this and never felt uncomfortable.

    Way better than the awful joycons, bo drift yet, but I'm not holding my breath for it to stay that way. Feels really nice for all games though, as long as there is not drift in the future.

    Seriously, this is probably the best quality/feel game controller made for any console platform. Very responsive, nice weight/balance, and great ergonomics. If you have a switch and play at home you need several of these!
