Highlights
Quality
Very well built and comfortable to hold.
Feels very good quality and syncing it with my switch was very easy.
Lasts a few days before it needs recharging.
The rumble is so weak you almost can’t feel it, which i don’t like.
Price
I’m glad i bought this instead of coughing up $60 for another pro controller after mine broke.
It's really a bang for the buck.
Get two of these for the price of one nintendo pro controller!
Shipping
It shipped fast and was packed well.
Sadly that is absolutely the norm with amazon shipping these days.
I ordered two of these same controllers same day on temu shipped 5-7 day shipping all the way from china.
Competitiveness
The quality is better than nintendo brand for nearly 1/4 cost.
This controller is much cheaper than a nintendo pro controller, and does a good job overall.
Unlike the powera and pdp controllers licensed by nintendo, this has rumble.
Not only is the d-pad more functional, but the joysticks are much more accurate than any of the nintendo licensed stuff at any price.
