    This is the best controller you can get for your Switch; it’s also the only controller officially made by Nintendo for their own system (aside from Joy-Cons). Bluetooth 3.0 for a seamless connection, a 40-hour battery life, built-in amiibo functionality, and rumble/haptic feedback. If you truly want the best of the best for your Nintendo Switch, go ahead and grab this controller today.

    This is the most comfortable controller I've ever used. The letters on the buttons are part of the material used to make the whole button, versus ink, so they haven't worn down at all and are still easily read. We also get at least 16 hours of out the charge, and recharging is easy using the USB cord. I often play with the charing cord attached as well, and it doesn't impair anything.

    I thought, for the longest time, the basic joycon controller cradle would be enough. But after wanting a more traditional controller experience I decided to see about this and holy hell what a difference. It's so much easier to use, less strain on my hands, and it's simple and elegant. It's a tad pricey, but getting on sale was a lot easier to handle. Definitely recommend.

    This is the way all games should be played. Battery lasts forever and it can survive a drop or two.

    Amazing feel, great response, awesome color. My two issues though, no headphone jack, which complicates things go online play in TV mode with the switch, and the left joy stick went out on me in less than a year. The warranty is only good for 3 months by the way.

    You can tell the difference between this remote and the cheaper remotes we bought on Amazon. It’s an awesome remote and I expect it will last a long time. It also has all the features to play all the games.

    Love the pro controller. The battery life alone is astounding. And it fits my hands better than the joycon controller.

    The pro controller is essential if you are coming from a traditional system like PS4. The joycons are adequate, but feel strange in comparison to, say, a dualshock 4. I also find that the Pro controller is much more comfortable for long stretches. I do wish it had a headphone jack.

    This controller is our primary switch controller for most of our games. Ergonomics are on point. The layout feels great and is super comfortable. No complaints on battery life. Price is a bit high but you get the tilt controls and amibo support. This controller is designed with serviceability in mind and in case something needs to be swapped out, this is by far the most intuitive disassembly/assembly. Well done Nintendo!

    The joycon grip that came with the system works but is not that comfortable. The pro controller solves the problem. Battery life is good. Didn't need to charge it that often. The only con is the price. I would be OK with paying around $50, but there's not much you can do about that.

    This controller is a massive improvement from the Joy-Con controllers. The button/stick layout feels more natural, and the grips are much more comfortable. My only gripe is that the controller is a little overpriced.
