Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Charges via usb-c, so you can charge it either plugged into the usb slot of the switch dock or connected directly to the ac adapter. Holds 2x joycon controllers, turning the joycons into something resembling a traditional controller.

After removing the handles this works great for me. That smoky translucent color is totally my * and makes me so happy! Works perfectly as intended.

The most essential purchase for the console. I love that it's a wireless controller because wired should only ever be used for computer gaming. Just should have been a pack-in for theconsole.



Cons

Tried connecting both usb 2. It doesn't charge the right joycon. Should have been included with the console. Save your money towards a pro controller.

Quality


Th grip to the control is great and the charging capability is a plus


I’ve used the iron joy-con grip that came with the console throughout the years.


The grip nintendo gives you with the switch has no capability in charging, which it honestly should since joy cons just notorio...  Read More


I wish nintendo included this with the switch instead of the grip that doesn't charge.

Price


Definitely worth the extra money in my eyes.


Don't buy it if it's being gouged for more than $30 (msrp).


It's really no extra cost to them to have included this charging one and while this might generate more profit for them, it fur...  Read More


Price is more than what i would have liked to have paid.

Shipping


The product arrived on time, in good condition and works properly.

Packaging/appearance


The packaging and instructions weren’t in english although it says u.

Competitiveness


I used to buy name brand compatible products and just found them to not live up to the standard of the brand they represented.


It is a shame nintendo never thought in sell this control in the same bundle with nintendo switch.

    Helpful for only have one dock but want to play with 2 full controller sets that can separate


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This isnt a huge issue aside from the fact i paid 5 dollars more for the exact same product but with japanese labeling


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It feels just like the regular joycon grip but with a charger port which is great because i was sick of my joycons dying while i was on stream and my knockoff pro controller has a poorly made analog stick which causes some erratic movements at times

    I wish nintendo included this with the switch instead of the grip that doesnt charge


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    No other way of saying it even if it seems like an exaggeration


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The grip nintendo gives you with the switch has no capability in charging which it honestly should since joy cons just notoriously are some of the worst controllers out there in terms of battery that and cough joy con drift cough cough


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The charging port is at the top but thats because its meant to be 34plugged into the dock34


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    While i generally dont mind holding my switch when i play i notice that my posture is pretty terrible since i end up hunched over the consol
