    This controller is solid. Feels a lot like the Xbox One controller and for larger hands it is way better than the Joycons.

    The Pro Controller is hands down the best controller for the Switch. It's almost ridiculously expensive but it feels great and is a must for Mario Kart.

    This is my second pro controller for the Nintendo switch, the other one is a Hori model which does not have the same build Quality or features. Not to take away from the Hori model, Which is a licensed third-party controller for a Nintendo switch. I just like the quality and features of the Nintendo pro controller better. The price of the Nintendo pro controller is $20 more then the Hori model, But you get what you pay for.

    This controller is exactly what I was looking for for my Nintendo Switch. It is nice and comfortable so I can play games for hours without worrying about my hands hurting like they did with my other controllers. It may be a little pricey, but it is worth paying around $70 for a quality controller. This is one of the best controllers I have ever used for gaming. I would highly recommend other Switch gamers to pay around $70 to get this controller because it is so good.

    Probably the best controller for the Nintendo Switch. Great for kids because of the smaller foot print but it is not a disadvantage for adults either. Buttons are very responsive, as well as the joysticks. Battery life is amazing. Anyone buying this controller won't regret it.

    This was our 14-year old son’s favorite Christmas gift! He wanted a wireless controller for his Switch and we hit it out of the ballpark with this one. He took it on our ski vacation and I think the highlight of his trip was hooking up his Switch to the big TV in our VRBO and using his new controller. He says it’s works like a “regular” controller and it “looks cool”. It’s perfect in his book!

    Smart money controller

    I wanted a controller to enable multi-player, and asked a few friends. In the end, spending a little more on the official brand was my choice, to ensure quality equipment that will last. Spend smart money once, i always say, and save money in the long run. The unit is solid, connected seamlessly, and though it has different ergonomics than the Joy-Cons, it is easy to adapt to.

    Super comfortable with easy to press buttons. Transparent plastic reminds me of my old game boy. One of the best controllers I’ve ever used Three small negatives. 70 is too much, get it on sale. There is no headphone jack and no dedicated power button. I have to press the home button a few times to turn the console on.

    This is the most comfortable controller that I have ever used. It just melts into your hand. It is held back from being the best ever by a couple shortcomings. First is the lack of analog triggers which is disappointing but forgivable. Second is the surprisingly horrid D-Pad. It is mushy and often registers left and right inputs as up.

    It's a little pricey for a controller, but it's the best controller I've ever used. I've used it somewhat regularly for over two years now and there's no issues with any of the buttons or joysticks, which is more than I can say for the Joy-Cons that actually come with the Switch. Plus, the battery life is great and it charges relatively fast too.
