Very comfy, difficult to deal with.
The media could not be loaded. This controller is basically a poor mans joycon. If you do not have the money to buy a regular joycon then you buy these.Starting off they are really easy on the hands especially if you have bigger hands. They are pretty cool looking tooStarting drifting day 1. What's worse is that they'll drift randomly.The range on these SUCKS. I play my switch on my bed mainly and when I have one joycon disconnected and at most 3 feet away from the console, the imputs gets lostIt is INCREDIBLY difficult undock joycons. A chore is an understatment. It is a full on dedicated task to pull the joycon off.They die waaaay to quickly and even when charging with the provided cable battery life varied from 1 hour on a full charge to almost 5 hours.They randomly disconnect even while playing in handheld mode.The vibrate isn't the HD rumble that rolls though the joycon. It's way more louder and random. It could pobably break glassIf you are like 30 dollars short of a real joycon and can wait don't buy these. If you're looking for a gift for someone and you like the color scheme of these buy stickers or learn to replace a joycon shell.UPDATE September 12th 2020I contacted the manufacturer about a replacement and I'm not sure if they've updated their design but the controller is a bit easier to pull off, possible with one hand if dedicated and the battery life lasted well into the 11 hour mark. The range and vibration is more or less the same.

Not worth it
The controllers are fine at first, but within the first couple weeks the controllers begin to drift a lot on both of them, which is why I got new controllers in the first place.The second problem is that while playing in handheld mode the controllers randomly disconnect and it takes some fidgeting with them to get them to reconnect for a couple more minutes.To solve the above problem I have to take them off (though I usually like playing in handheld mode) but the controllers themselves are really hard to take off! And the battery life for when they are disconnected isn’t very long at all.Additional notes are that they feel very plastic-y and cheap, and the vibration is insanely loud on them. The controllers have a green light visible through the plastic when playing on them. The buttons have indents on them which makes them not as comfortable to play with and the control sticks are flat and not very comfortable.I loved the wide variety of controllers and wanted a cheaper alternative to the $80 joy cons Nintendo sells, but these are not it. I would just wait until you have enough for actual controllers. I wouldn’t buy these again, and I’d recommend stickers or as another reviewer said, just replace the joy con cases.

Drift
I bought these because of the stupid drift on the original controllers. Immediately I was so excited opened the box to use them and what do you know, they already have the drift issue. So disappointed, the switch is my favorite gaming system currently but it seems there is no solution to the drift problem.

Trash
Purchased these as an alternative to the Nintendo brand joycons. You know, the ones that are plagued with drifting issues?Started out okay....then the right trigger button started to get sticky/hard to press. Then the right joy con died completely. Let it charge all night on a regular charger, wouldn't come back up.Decided to give it a second try and ask for replacements. Same story, except it was the left one that died this time.I really hate that no one, not even Nintendo, knows how to make joycons that aren't complete garbage. I wish you luck with your journey to find quality, affordable joycons but DO NOT BUY THESE.

Drifting, won’t charge, & not compatible with Ring Fit
We bought these so we could still use the Switch while our original controllers are being fixed for the drifting issue. Unfortunately, these have given us issues from the start. First, minor drifting issues - not as bad as the original controllers, but really annoying nonetheless. Second, one controller is nearly impossible to slide onto the console or the piece that connects the two controllers together to be used as one. Third, even after charging for more than 24 hours, they are still “low battery” from the minute they are taken off the charger. Fourth, they are not compatible with Ring Fit, which we use daily in our house. The Switch won’t recognize the controller when it is in the ring, so it won’t let you start the game. These are going back.

Looks can be deceiving
They don’t charge very well, I attach them to the switch allll night to charge and sometimes they won’t even charge. I can definitely tell the difference when I’m playing because they aren’t as sensitive as the remotes that came with the switch. Playing Mario kart with the tilt controls is frustrating. I found it weird the arm strap is tied on, it doesn’t slide on to add the back buttons like a normal switch remote. They look super cool but I don’t think I’d buy them again based on their actually use. They’re easy to hold cause they have a groove that makes for good holding.

Dead after 2 months
Loved this product right away but 1 of the two controllers will no longer even turn on. Left in charger without touching for 3 days to see if just “extra dead” nothing. Waste of money

Still working, small delay lag on input with motion controller if play quick action reflect game.
I unsure if it just me or not, I notice input lag - I play boxing fitness - other games, you cant tell. I play pokemon and not a concern. Overall, every thing seem to work but I only have it a week, will update on the most common problem if Bluetooth start to disconnect according to other reviewer. I haven't notice any disconnection problem yet.Update - currently one of the controller, right one (blue) is loosing charge fast. May return it earlier. + constant disconnect from the blue one. Could be related to the battery.
