good controller except no amiibo reader
Just to compare, i do have a nintendo pro controller which works great, i use that with my oled switch, but since i have already installed most of my games on my original switch, i bought this controller for that. What i did was buy a generic black pro controller clone, but not sure if it's the internal battery, but after it pairs, only about 30 minutes playing and it loses it's connection which i think is because the battery is starting to lose it's strength. This controller is a licensed product, so you can tell when you get it that the quality looks great. This clear one especially looks good with the adjustable led lights/colors ;or just leave it to fade in and out of different colors. It is pretty bright, but i dont mind it at all. At th;e USB plug, there is a button that lets you pair easily. Once the controller is registered to the switch, it usually can connect with just alternating pressing the top right and top left trigger ;buttons like you would with a normal pro controller. Home button and +- works the same and the joysticks feel good and did not drift or anything weird like maybe some cheaper controllers ;might do. There is a sequence you can do to recalibrate all the controls so that's pretty good if it ever does drift. It comes with a normal USB rectangular end plug to usb-c for the controller side. Th4 instructions inside only has a QR code to look up the instructions but you dont really need them as you just need to put your switch on that page which shows paired controllers and press that pairing button, then press the l/r buttons to pair. You can tell when the controller is paired as the leds come on when it's paired and stays dark if not. Anyways, it's a solid controller for slightly lmore then half the price of a real pro controller, totally worth it. If i run into qny trouble will post here but so far it's been a great controller.Update: i ran into one problem lol, it doesn't read NFC, so no amiibo's for like totk or echoes of wisdom, too bad, or this would be a perfect controller.

Love this!
Just as good as a Nintendo brand Pro Controller but looks better and for less money. Works well. It's got extra buttons built into the backs of the hand grips. When plugged in the LEDs "breathe" red when charging, green when fully charged. Battery life is great.

Works great! And not too spendy
We like this controller its affordable compared to the others and it works just as well. Im glas we decided to get this one for Mario kart and a couple other games with motion! It makes it so much fun. We need a couple more for the rest of the family. Definitely planning on purchasing again

Pretty control that lights up! (but a little difficult to charge)
I would give it a 5/5 but it does not fit the official Nintendo JoyCon/controller charger. You can't lose the charging wire that came with it as the plug is deep in the controller and the entrance is not wide enough for standard USB mini cords :(It looks great though and I am still happy I bought it.

Better than the Official Nintendo Pro Controller
I bought my switch in 2020 and bought this controller in 2021 after the official pro controller I bought with the system started drifting (for those who don’t know what that is, basically the controller's joystick was no longer responding accurately to my input). Although the top 4 small bottoms are differently mapped than they are on the official pro controller (the home and the ‘+’ button are switched, and the screenshot and the ‘-‘ button are switched), this controller is MUCH more comfortable the official Pro controller. After 30 minutes of playing a game like Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, my fingers start to hurt and get frictions burns with the official controller, but this controller has a softer, less bulky feel to it that gives me no discomfort even when playing more “physically demanding” games like Xenoverse for hours. I mainly bought this controller for Fortnite for the extra map able buttons on the back (there’s 2), and has significantly better gyro functionality than the official controller. And considering I’ve bought two other Amazon controllers for their LED capabilities (which were absolute garbage), I can happily say that compared to other LES switch controllers out there that this one is actually FUNCTIONAL and looks amazing when playing. There’s a bit of learning curve for getting used to mapping new buttons, but changing the colors on the controller is easy. The battery life on this thing is also amazing, It’s never died on me and I only really charge it when I remember to like every week. Considering this is about $25 cheaper than the official pro controller, and I haven’t experienced any drift in the two years I had it (I bought a second controller since my older one started making an annoying clicking sound that wouldn’t budge even with WD40), this was soooo worth it. Definitely got all the value for my bucks!

Cool for gamers
Bought for my 10 year old son at the time. Weve had it for a while now and no issues. It lights up and vibrates. THe light up is cool, there is only one setting, not multiple. Lights up well with batteries or a charge. Compatible with any of his gaming systems.

Good Buy
Well worth the money! I originally bought an off brand remote but it was very difficult to connect. This one is very easy to connect to the switch even if going from the regular remotes to this one. All the buttons work great, the battery lasts for a long time, and the lights look great.
