This remote is great. It lasts for hours before a recharge and feels great. Makes playing games way more comfortable than the joycons which aren't horrible. Def my go-to controller.

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.

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.

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.

Recently bought a Switch and quickly noticed that my hands didn't feel comfortable with the joy cons. I've read stories of the joy-con drifts and seeing how expensive the replacements are, I needed something else.
The many positive reviews sucked me into buying this accessory. Short story, it was worth every penny. The battery life on this controller is amazing! The controls are smooth and ergonomic. Could play for hours non-stop with no strain and still be wondering when would I need to charge this?

Bought this one because I bought a skin that only fit this controller. So far so good, battery seems to last for how long I play for. Have tried other controllers but this was seems to work well but a little on the pricier side based off other options.

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 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.

Amazing controller. Unlike many of the other brands of controllers such as PowerA, this controller feels like what you pay for. It is made with a durable plastic and has some weight behind it for comfort. I’ve tried some of the other controllers (namely the PowerA controllers) but they just feel cheap and flimsy despite costing $55.
The analog sticks are made of a nice rubber and are enjoyable to hold. This controller reminds me of an Xbox on controller- so if you like those, you’ll like this!

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.

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.

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

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.

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!
