Customer Ratings & Reviews

The joy con grip worked for me but always had a slightly smaller grip than I wanted -- this worked great to solve that issue. Lasts a long time and doesn't feel light.

It’s a great way to play Switch games. The controller melts into your hands and is much more comfortable than a GameCube controller. However the controller may be a bit pricey especially that you need to spend $300 for the console along with an extra $60 for a game just to enjoy the experience. Luckily I bought it when it was $50. If you ever see it on sale again, I recommend to pick it up.

If I have one criticism of the Switch, it's that those little joy cons are not super comfortable to use for extended periods of time. Even with the provided dock that they slot in to in order to simulate a full sized controller, they are just too small to use for protracted play sessions. After a while with them, my hands get kind of stiff, and I guess if I wanted to be a responsible adult, I would take that as a sign that maybe I should take a break and go do something else. But, a different part of being an adult is the right to willfully ignore those signs and continue on doing stupid things. Fortunately, the Switch Pro Controller enables me to do just that and to play for hours and hours on end in phalangeal comfort.

This is a must have controller. If you want more of the original experience with a more comfortable grip gaming long periods of time get the pro controller. Charges quickly, hefty price but quality is very good.

Good feeling quality controller. Good battery life.

Great controller better than the off-brand ones. Would buy again from Bestbuy

The grip is more comfortable than the Joy Con that comes with the switch and makes solo game play more enjoyable and has an excellent battery life that's rechargeable.

The joy cons that come with the switch are great for daily/travel play, but I can say that this controller is a big QOL improvement over the joy cons. Very happy with this controller.

After going through knock-off controllers from third party manufacturers and consistently being disappointed with performance, decided to spring for a pair of these. They work great and are clearly built well.

Bottom line: you need this controller. This is the only controller i use to play in TV mode. Excellent battery life, great feel, and it really enhanced my experiences with Mario Kart, Tetris, and Zelda. Get one!

This may be the most comfortable controller I've ever held. I'd heard that, and didn't see what the big deal was just from looking at it, but then I held it and was sold. Definitely a noticeable upgrade over the joy-cons + grip but also just too dang expensive. I've seen the price breakdowns of all the tech that's inside and it is a fair price based on that, but paying $70 for a controller is still hard to swallow.

We have tried aftermarket controllers and some of them work alright, however this is the only full featured controller in this price range. It is original Nintendo and works flawlessly with the Switch.

The standard controllers that come with the switch are good for travel but are much smaller and to me are not as comfortable for home play. I like these larger full controllers much better. Very Durable!

The controller feels & looks great!! Pairs easily to the Switch & has great battery life. I have not experienced any lag or other issues so far. Even though the price is a little steep, I do recommend buying one.

Best thing you can buy for the switch. This pro controller fills good in your hands and it's better the using the joy cons. If your going to play with your switch for hours I will recommend the pro controller.

Liked the joycon but the pro feels better in the hands and battery last longer. My joycons developed a drift issue with the joysticks, so far no issues with the pros

Works perfectly way better than the controllers that came with the switch would buy again customer service was great they actually stopped what they were doing and got the product for me the case was empty and went and got me one from somewhere else in the store without even asking I don’t see that very often these days

I have to admit I haven't really used the joycons.. Except for SniperClips.. Mainly because this thing feels right.. A must for those with larger hands and find the joycons a bit small.. Great battery life..

A month in and so far, so good. A slightly shallower profile than our PowerA controller, it’s easier for my kids, who are under 10, to hold in their smaller hands. But it’s also more comfortable for the adults as well, and it has the multi-level rumble feature which is valuable for some games, so it’s the preferred controller of our household. It’s pricier than other controllers but it seems to be the best per the reviews I read, and so far, I’m in agreement. I’d consider buying another, although I’d still look for a sale just to knock off a few bucks off the price tag.

love the controller!! it's a great alternative to the joy cons and in my opinoin, a much better gaming option as the controller feels better and has better battery life than the joy cons
