    Holds a charge for an exceptional amount of time, more comfortable then the more expensive joycons with pretty much all of the same functions

    I love this controller because I regularly play Xbox and it feels no different playing it on the switch. Very comfortable and good charge.

    Best controller out there. Pricy but not worth going cheap. Try to grab on sale or with points.

    Best Switch Controller

    A must-have for any serious Switch game play. Probably the best d-pad compared to current consoles (re: PS4 and Xbox1). Decent weight, feels good in hand. Battery holds charge well, can get more hours than a non-docked Switch. Rumble is weak. PS4 controller is superior, but about equal with Xbox1 controller. Is overpriced though!

    I've been a Nintendo fan for many years and they have never disappointed with controllers, especially this one. What makes this such an amazing controller is it's an original Nintendo product, not a 3rd party product. My only complaint is the price. Other console's controllers top off at $60 so paying more than that is a little extreme and hope Nintendo drops the prices. A controller shouldn't cost more than a game.

    It's overall an outstanding controller. It's extremely comfortable and responsive; however, the d-pads often have problems. I have two of these, and you have to fix the d-pad from making incorrect inputs by taking apart the controller and adding some tape to the pivot. Nintendo has to fix this.

    Great controller but a bit on the expensive side

    I'm used to paying $20-$35 for controllers. This is $70 which is hefty. Outside of that the left joy and the right joy are just a quarter inch too high. I like it slightly lower for more control over the movements. But outside of those two complaints, everything else about the controller is awesome! Very accurate controls and the batter lasts forever. I like the look and the feel as well. Had no problems with my Switch detecting it as well.

    I am a day one Switch owner and avoided the pro controller all this time. Since I predominantly play in handheld mode I didn’t think this was necessary and when I played in docked mode I thought the joycons were good enough. I finally decided to get the pro controller because my friends kept telling me I was missing out and they were right. Now I actually enjoy docked mode much more than I used to. A great, sturdy controller which enhances the gaming for sure.

    I debated having the pro controller due to the fact the switch comes with the joystick controller. The price seemed high, however after buying i can’t ever to back to the joystick controller! It connects super easy to the console, feels great in your hand. No complaints! If you have a switch, this is a must have accessory!

    My son stands no chance against me when I use this controller against him in smash. I was scared he would beat me, but then i got the pro controller and dunk on him continually.
