    It's a solid controller. Holds a much better charge than the Wii-U pro one did. I use this for most games though the default Joy-Con is fine too in most cases. This just has a more comfortable feel in your hands.

    This controller is worth every penny! This controller fits comfortably in the hands for long hours, Even when playing smash brothers i prefer this over the game cube controller. Thanks Nintendo!

    Best Switch Controller so far, no complaints

    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.

    Good size for adult hands and has a more traditional button layout if you really want. Great for more competitive games like Splatoon 2 or Arms, but the Joy-Con can be just as comfortable for slower paced games.

    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.

    Nice controller with a comfortable grip. Controls are very responsive. Has a good weight to it. Perfect for Super Smash if you are considering moving on from your GameCube controller or JoyCons.

    Necessity for Switch Owners

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    If you own a switch, you pretty much need this controller. While the Joy-cons are OK for short periods of gaming, anything longer can really cramp up your hands. The pro controller feels and looks nice, and makes playing for longer sessions more enjoyable. I only have 2 complaints with it. I think it is a little expensive and they were hard to even come by when I was looking for them. Nintendo really needs to work on their supply issues.

    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

    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.

    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.

    The controller has been comfortable to play with. It’s better than playing with the joy-cons separately. The battery lasts a long time.
