Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is one high quality controller. The battery life is insane and it feels like a Xbox controller (in the best way). I had only used the joy cons before this controller and WOW, what a difference! All the features of the joy cons in a very sturdy, COMFORTABLE and long battery device...nice!

If it is hard to get used to two handed operation of the switch this is the way to go. Great battery life, comfortable, and similar to other console controllers. Just fyi if you get a wired controller to save a few bucks you will probably be wishing you got this first as they have issues. We ignored the warnings and here we are now.

4 years owning a switch and I finally bought the pro controller. Didn’t want to get an off brand so I went with this one. It’s great quality and feels great.

I read good things about this controller but didn't expect that I would like it myself so much. It feels heavy in hands and has monstrous battery life. I wish microsoft and sony could keep up with this battery life. See through design feels a bit weird at first but now I started to like it.

If you are going to use your Switch as a console game, in addition to a portable gaming machine, you will want this controller. The controllers that come with the switch are great for when you're mobile, but if you want to do some serious Mario Kart driving, you will want the full-size controller. It works great and holds a charge for a long time.

The ease of use, battery life, and perfect size are the main reasons.

This controller is definitely my favorite when playing on the Switch. It does support basically all of the features of the joycon, and the 40 hour battery claims do seem to be fairly accurate in my experience. The price is a bit steep, but all of the tech that is inside this controller, combined with the ergonomics and general experience make it worth its price to me.

Huge improvement from joy-cons in terms of joystick feel and precision. D-pad is functional, but inputs are sometimes registered incorrectly (not a major issue for me, as I do not play D-pad heavy games). Charge lasts a very long time. Pricey, but worth it if you frequently play your Switch in docked mode.

This controller is practically the most comfortable controller compared to other favorites like the Xbox controller... The buttons are big and the level of comfort is top notch. It's only con is that it lacks a headphone jack for audio... Which is not always for chat, but for the convenience. Overall my new favorite controller

I had the Nintendo Switch with 4 Joy-Cons (2 each side) since 2018. Everyone in the family and their friends love it, but especially our toddler loves to bite on the thumbstick which always results in the thumbstick pad getting removed. Now all 4 of them are lost, probably to the housekeepers vacuum cleaner. Of course these only cost about $5 each to replace, but as I researched this I also realized that our 8 year old really struggles with holding the two separate Joy-Cons, she really just wants them both together in the Joy-Con grip or attached to the Switch itself, which meant I was connecting and un-connecting a lot of Joy-Cons all the time! I finally realized that the Pro Wireless Controller was the permanent solution to these minor inconveniences, and also made Completionists in our house much happier with the smooth responsiveness and comfortable grip. Now I am considering getting a second one for multi-player mode. Best accessory I have gotten so far for our Switch, makes the games much more enjoyable!

Pro Wireless Controller: excellent build, precise controls, long battery life — perfect for serious gamers!

I cannot play my switch on my TV without this controller anymore. The buttons, triggers, and sticks feel amazing and the quality is top notch. The handles also have a rubbery texture all around which feels great in your hand. Feels like a great and durable product and I would recommend this to anyone.

Since getting my Switch a couple years ago, I off and on looked at the Pro controller. I finally got it and the only thing I regret is not getting it sooner. It did take a little time for me to get used to the buttons because they pressed a little differently than the joycons and the placement for the home and screenshot buttons. It doesn't take long though to get used to and it now feels weird using the joycons in the grip that mimics a controller. It's definitely worth getting this one vs. a third party Pro controller because all the ones I looked at didn't have the vibration in the controller like this one. I thought this feature was good to have as it can be important enough to certain games. I've had minimal connection issues between it and the Switch and for the two times I did, it didn't take long for it to sort itself out. I found the battery life is also wicked good to the point where I can use it for several days before I even have to charge it. I'm completely satisfied with this purchase and I can't highly recommend it enough.

Best controller ever from the design, to the grip and feel. Your always in control with the Nintendo switch pro controller. And with the Nintendo switch stand you can play it in hand held mode while the joy ones are connected. You can use the pro controller while the system is in hand held mode. Top notch system baby.

This pro controller is the most comfortable controller I have ever used. Before this I really liked the Xbox One controller but this blows it out of the water. Amazing 40 hour battery life and great tactile feel to the buttons. Note: Triggers are digital but feel good when pressed. No 3.5 mm headphone jack USB C Charging cable is included [Great quality too]

I much rather prefer the pro control to the joycons. I like the weight and perceived durability of the controller. That is not to say it isn't durable for I haven't put in through a lot paces.

Must-buy item for the Switch, this controller has amazing comfort, is very well-made, battery lasts a long time, and feels very "premium." I play ALL of my games with this controller as I am an old school gamer. It's a little overpriced in my opinion but hey, it's one of the best gaming controllers I've ever held. Two thumbs.............. WAY UP!

Far superior controller to the JoyCons. The JoyCon is fun for what it is but far too small for my average size hands and their clip on to the screen design far too limits their function. This controller is far more comfortable and versatile plus has a really solid battery life. Be mice if some more color options were more available.

The Pro Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch is the best investment you can purchase for your Nintendo Switch. Works flawlessly . Much better control and feel than the included Joycons that are included with the Nintendo Switch. Definitely purchase a Pro Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch. You wont regret it. Just wish the price was more affordable.

It’s a solid controller, feels well made, and it’s definitely an upgrade from the joy cons, BUT it’s too expensive in my opinion. $70 for this thing is just Nintendo being Nintendo. New Xbox and PS4/5 controllers cost less. If you can find it on sale or for $10 less, (WM) pick it up. PS. It DOES hold a charge incredibly well. I’ve had this thing for about 2 weeks now, have only charged it once, and it’s STILL at 50%.
