    One of my best pro controllers

    This is actually going to be a second switch though my experience thus far is that i couldn't be happier with my decision. The controller feels sturdy and comfortable in my hands, and the buttons have a satisfying tactile response. The battery life is impressive, lasting hours on a single charge. The ability to use the controller with both my Switch and PC is a great bonus. Overall, it's a fantastic companion for any serious gamer. Highly recommended!

    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.

    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.

    A very fine controller

    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.

    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.

    This controller gets the job done with whatever you throw at it. Comfortable, and the charges last a very long time. Durable too as its a Nintendo product.

    One of the best controllers Nintendo has made

    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.

    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!

    If you want to experience playing the Nintendo Switch at home with a high quality controller than this is the one to own. I even use the controller out of docked mode, it’s very comfortable and easily one of the best controllers around.

    Ergonomic & Superior to JoyCons

    It's far more ergonomic (comfortable) to hold and use than the JoyCons, even if you use the grip attachment you get with your console. If you like your Switch, but lamented the lack of a traditional controller... the Pro controller is for you. The feel of this is closer to that of an Xbox One controller than of a PS4 controller, if mainly due to the asymmetrical joystick layout. I tend to like this. Some may not. Either way, I can't imagine you'd prefer using JoyCons over this. If own a Switch and consider yourself an even remotely serious gamer, then you need to grab the Pro controller. It's well worth the money, especially when on sale.

    A very pricey Switch Controller

    If you are okay with the basic joy-con wireless controllers which come standard with the Switch, then I wouldn’t recommend this product. However, the small controllers can become uncomfortable for long term use if you have big hands or cramp easily. This wireless pro controller is very pricy, but if it is necessary it is a high quality product. I recommend it, but it is over priced.

    I was very hesitant to go in for the Pro Controller at it's high price point, but Nintendo has created one of my all-time favorite controllers with this one. Amazing battery life and very, very well worth the money.
