A decent controller at a good price
The Nintendo Switch controllers work well with the included joypad adapter, but I find it difficult to use because it's so flat. My wife loves it, however!This was the cheapest alternative joypad I could find and I'm really pleased with it. It doesn't have the rubbish rubberised coating you get with some mice and controllers that makes them feel sticky and eventually rubs off in places making the device look like it has some kind of disease, but instead is hard plastic. It's smaller than an PS3 controller (only slightly) so not difficult to hold and appears to have all the functionality of the original joypad when you slide the 2 controllers in to place.Pairing it to the console was no problem and with the USB ports on the dock, you can charge the controller when it's not in use.For anyone that prefers a "normal" design for a joypad, or those that are just looking for a cheap way to let their friends play on the console with them, this is a great purchase.

Better size for adult Switch gamers, and no problems
Having never used an official switch controller, I don't have much to compare this to - however, it works as well as I would expect an official controller to work, so really no complaints. 4 stars for battery life, but maybe thats unfair without a real comparison. They connected to the switch out of the box and have had not problems with functionality or connectivity. Couldn't really ask for more.I bought two of these to accompany the new switch and they have been a great addition. Firstly because as an adult I find the little controllers a bit fiddly and dont have the co-ordination (yet, Im sure I could master it!) to play with a switch controller in each hand on the TV. Also a great addition for family + friends mario kart multiplayer!

A couple of tips ...
This controller works well (so far) and is pretty god value for money. Just a couple of things that may be worth knowing:- When pairing for the first time, release the 'Y + home' buttons as soon as the LED lights start flashing - do not wait the two seconds or so for them to finish flashing. I followed the written instructions to the letter, but just couldn't get it to pair. Went onto the Beboncool website and watched the video, and only then realised that you need to release the buttons quickly - the lights then continue flashing for way more than 2 seconds until it eventually pairs, and an image of the controller appears in the '1' box on-screen (unhelpfully this is not shown or explained in the instructions).- the controller is likely to be too big for young children with small hands. I bought it to play two-player Mario Kart with my 5 year old (my hands are way too big to use the tiny joy cons), and his little fingers just can't reach all the buttons - not a problem, as he just uses the original and I use this controller, but he was a bit disappointed that he couldn't use the shiny new thing.But all in all it seems to be a really good and responsive controller.

Superb - great functionality and price point
Arrived and took all of 2 minutes to setup and get working with my Switch - no issues, and clear easy to follow instructions.Great price point, feels solid and comes with a USB cable for charging too. Lots of features packed into this controller so for its price its an absolute must buy - especially when compared to some of the more expensive options (including the official controller).Why spend extra when you can have this controller with no compromise in function or performance!Recommended - does not disappoint.

A very good controller
Bought this for my Nintendo switch and what a bargain, I use it and I’ve got quite large hands but also my 7 yr old grand daughter uses it with ease so it is a great buy to suit all ages and hand sizes. Connection was super easy in a matter of seconds, it stays connected and has a good battery life, especially when my granddaughters wonder off leaving everything switched on until switch powers it down, in a casual gamer so I can’t say if this is a controller that is good for serious gamers but I’m very impressed with it and it is exceptional value

Very pleased with this controller.
Great controller, feels good in the hands when using and the controls are easy-feeling (if that makes sense). Vibrations work well too.Pairs easily, charges quickly and a charge seems to last for ages through the long game play this has had so far.We like the relatively 'compact' kind of feel to this; my daughter has no issues using it with her smaller hand size. Even my youngest hasn't had too much difficulty with it, surprisingly.We also like the finish on the controller, which lacks that tacky feeling rubber, favouring a more robust and solid material.With this additional controller we're ready to tackle new game play this Christmas now!

The worst controller ever made
What other reviewers have not mentioned is that this controller is designed for giant hands. Check the picture and think how close the sticks are to the edges in the first 2 controllers. Thats for a good reason. Then compare how far your thumbs have to travel over all that plastic with this one. You get the idea, total design fail, feels so wrong to use, thats why its so uncomfortable. Its like going from driving a mini to an ocean liner. Returned on day 1.
