The cord is long and good for someone who doesn't want to be too close to the tv screen. Easily hooks up to the switch and button mapping was quick and decisive. The headphone jack works ok.

Competitiveness
Bought this switch controller because i had used powera products in the past and didn't want to shell out $80 for a pro switch controller.
It came with 10ft length usb cable that is great option.
I buy these powera controllers more as a collectors series.

However it’s really lightweight and i get the feeling that the design will fade over time though it is yet to do so

The cord is so long that it tends to mostly pile up on the floor when i’m using it leading to some stress on the plug and most likely a frayed cord my friend also has a similar controller that i think may be this type and his is significantly frayed and has some stick drift

Luckily it’s just your average micro usb cord and it can be easily replaced

I did just order a second one of the white pikachu controller because my original got the drift but that was from constant and heavy use and it lasted a little over a year
