    One of the best, most comfortable controller in the market. Far superior than ps4 and Xbox. It’s ergonomic, light and sleek. Sadly, it’s a steep price for it but stills it feels perfect in your hands.

    These controllers work really well. No pulling to the left or right like the controllers that come with the switch. Plus they fit in the hands perfectly.

    The Switch Pro Wireless Controllers are excellent and much more comfortable to use than the joy-con controllers. Battery lasts for a reasonable amount of use before needing recharged.

    In my opinion the best option for a switch controller! Often on sale for around 10 bucks more than other alternative, but butter. Has rumble, nfc, and feels great!

    Perfect for gaming on the switch. I also don’t have any drift issues with this. Added bonus. The battery must have been developed by wizards. I still haven’t had to charge it yet.

    Not an exaggeration. It’s a fantastic controller that feels great on the hands, features all the buttons you need for the full Switch experience, and a industry-topping 40 hour battery life per charge.

    Feels great in your hands. Button placement is intuitive and comfortable. The ABXY buttons are bigger than standard but you adapt quickly. It's pretty heavy. Battery is fantastic. Definitely over priced, but what can you do.

    Love this controller compared to the joycons. Good button placement and perfect size. Charge lasts a long time. Wish they were a little cheaper, but still worth it.

    The Pro Controller is an excellent controller for serious gamers. Its ergonomic design, excellent build quality, and long battery life which can offer 40 hours of play provide the comfort and responsiveness to allow for extensive play.

    Hands down this is my favorite controller from all of the current generation consoles. Great weight to it and everything just feels high quality. The battery lasts longer than the PS4 or Xbox controllers, too.

    I have larger hands and this controller saved me from the frustration of the OG controller. This took me from a low level noob to a Mario kart champion! This controller makes playing all games more enjoyable. Worth the cost

    Incredible Controller, Even in the Switch 2 Era

    My main controller is the Xbox controller. With that said, the Switch 1 pro controller feels much higher quality. I bought this before the Switch 2's Pro controller was even a twinkle in my eye and I even use it on the Switch 2. Buttons are snappy, thumbsticks are smooth, materials are fantastic, and the build quality is grade A. I only wish Nintendo would go back to having analog triggers...

    Great addition to our Switch

    The Switch is alright, a bit of a let down after the Wii-U since while the screen res went up a bit and the TV resolution went up a bit, they didn't do enough "new" for me to be happy with the next version of their gaming console. The hand held unit they include for the joy cons works, but it's hardly ideal... This controller made all the difference for using it from a distance though. Even with direct line of sight, the joy cons only had about an 8 to 9 foot range (absolutely unacceptable) before the signal loss was enough to interfere with gaming. This works at distances those won't. And it's more comfortable to use, easier to hold, and button presses are more consistent. If you have a switch, and play it NOT in handheld mode sometimes, this is a must have.

    Overall, the Switch Pro Controller is among the best in the business, bar none. It’s supremely comfortable and great for longer play sessions. My only gripe is that this was purchased as a replacement for another pro controller on which the left joystick had developed a drifting problem, so that might be worth keeping an eye on.

    Grip is good enjoy that it is study upon being dropped which I accidentally do a lot. Syncing it wasn't that hard and neither was getting started. The charge that it holds is way less then what I would expect though. Not sure if it is normal but just not used to it lacking in that way. Ps4 controllers can run a good five hours on a charge without issues. This one at least gives you muti warnings though it could just be the system being as good as it is.

    An excellent controller that exceeds Joy Cons

    If you have normal size hands (for a grown adult) and want to play with comfort, this is the controller for you. I have a lot of gripes with Joy Cons: their connectivity is questionable, size is too small, and button placement is unnatural. This controller has none of those issues. It's a little pricey but it's worth the money in my opinion. Definitely get this if you want to play Switch docked in comfort. Only negative is I don't think a Switch Lite user will get as much use out of this as I think the screen's size lends more to play in handheld mode. But to be frank I don't own a Switch Lite so cannot say definitively.
