Orzly Grips compatible with Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons for Extra Comfort - TWIN PACK (2x BLACK) Universal Sided Grip Attachments for use with Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons

Even though the joy-cons are meant for easy two player portability, the controllers do feel a bit crammed and awkward to use.I bought these grips with the intention of improving that, and improve it does.The joy-cons are quickly slotted into the mini controller holes from top to bottom, and are secure and sturdy. Instantly when holding them, I could feel that they now handle a lot better. As an added bonus and something I don't see mentioned here, the LED's on the top of the joy-cons are clearly visible due to a 3mm clearing, and also the reflect of the shiny black plastic.Highly recommended.You can see my video demonstration of this product on my YouTube channel "CrawlinUK Games" or search for code: DMTHDDBgHTw

(Note: The grips I received were the "Improved for 2018" ones, as stated on the packaging)These are hard plastic grips that you put the Joy-Cons into for easier holding. They have handles, and two shoulder buttons that push on the Joy-Con shoulder buttons when you press them-as in, they aren't separate buttons that work in and of themselves, they just push on existing buttons. Both grips are the same.To use, you just push the Joy-Con gently in. It goes in easily, and comes out just as easily, but isn't loose and doesn't fall out or move around. There are a few gaps around the edges after putting the Joy-Con in but again it doesn't move around or seem to affect anything.We tested it with Mario Kart 8. Other reviews were saying the shoulder buttons didn't work well/at all or you couldn't tell when they were pressed. I didn't have this issue-they could definitely be improved, by giving more of a click say, but I could tell when they were pressed and didn't seem to have any issues drifting around the tracks. All the other parts of the Joy-Con were still accessible and easy to press and reach.The only other potential issue was that the hard plastic of the handles/sides felt like they dug into my hands after a little while, underneath the thumb. Putting a silicone section over these areas may help, and help with grip issues after playing for a while, if they were to redesign these again in the future.As is, I would recommend this (the improved 2018 version) for anyone who uses the Joy-Cons individually for multiplayer. They're inexpensive and made playing much more comfortable, especially for longer times.

I play Mario Kart a lot with my brother and found that whilst playing our hands would always cramp up - but now we can play with two proper remotes! The joy-cons fit perfectly, and the functionality is brilliant. Better still, the L and R buttons are press button rather than clickers, leading to even smoother gameplay.

Received these today and they are great (2018 version). Really impressed by the size and comfort. Only a little smaller than the standard grip. I've added a pic comparing the standard grip and PS4 controller.

A reasonable attempt at solving the problem of the small size of the JoyCons, marred by fit and finish problems.Fistrly, the JoyCon doesn't quite sit inside the grip properly- that's original neon JoyCons and recently bought grey ones too. However you press it in it never quite sits correctly- always a few mm raised at the edge closets to you.Second,y, the shoulder buttons are both hard to press and really indestinct. You don't feel any sort of click or satisfying "notch" so that you can know you successfully pressed them. To be fair, I've owned a few of these type of adapter grips over the years (Vita, etc) and, any time they attempt a hinged button, as here, it never quite feels right.A merely average grip. Unless they're dirt cheap, I'd wait for a better designed one to come along.

Arrived this morning and haven't stop playing with them since! So much better for multiplayer gaming. No more hand cramps from tiny controllers. Great size and feel!UPDATE: after a good few days using these I can honestly say they are one of the most successful purchases I've made. Literally haven't stopped using them and even prefer them to the official JoyCon mount! Very comfortable, lightweight, feels great to hold, easy to see player indicators and a perfect fit for the controller.

It does what its supposed to, it makes the joy-cons comfortable to use but there is a big short sight. The triggers have a long travel distance to the ZR buttons on the joy-cons, I don't understand why they didn't put additional plastic to shorten the distance, poor design choice. Also the bottom left and right of the joy con where the handles are for the controllers is very tight so it rubs on the joy-con every time you take them in or out, I've taken them out a few times and I've rubbed the marks off but I'm not sure how long i can keep doing this before the marks become permanent.Would i recommend? Yes if you're okay with the downfalls but I'd personally recommend looking elsewhere and try to find similar products that don't have these issues.

These are really good for adult hands to stop cramping when playing games using the individual joy con controllers. I only knocked a star off as sometimes it’s a little tricky when using the buttons on the top and you have to press on the side closest to the centre for them to work properly. Sometimes when you press quickly on the outer edges they do not work but once you get the knack of it they are fab.
