First and foremost, the ergonomic design of the controller fits perfectly in my hands, allowing for hours of comfortable gameplay without any strain or discomfort. The buttons are responsive and have a satisfying click to them, giving me precise control over my gameplay experience.
One of the standout features of the Pro Controller is its exceptional battery life. I can go days, even weeks, without needing to recharge, which is a game-changer for someone like me who loves long gaming sessions without interruption.
The controller's connectivity is seamless, whether I'm playing wirelessly or plugged into the console. I've experienced zero input lag, ensuring that my gameplay is always smooth and uninterrupted.
Additionally, the Pro Controller's versatility is impressive. It seamlessly transitions between Nintendo Switch and PC gaming, making it a fantastic investment for gamers who enjoy a variety of platforms.
Overall, I couldn't be happier with my purchase of the Nintendo Pro Switch Controller. Its exceptional build quality, comfort, battery life, and performance make it an absolute must-have accessory for any serious gamer. Whether you're a casual player or a competitive gamer, this controller will undoubtedly enhance your gaming experience.
What makes this controller so good? Well, theres a few things:
Quality: You can tell from the moment that you pick up this controller that it is made of quality materials and is going to last. Everything about the controller feels good from the material it is made of, down to the action of the buttons which are all have very crisp action.
Battery life: The battery life on this controller is fantastic. I typically recharge it after several gaming sessions and have yet to run into battery issues. It comes with a high quality USBC cord that will last just as long as the remote.
Comfort: One of the biggest downsides to the controllers that come with the console is that they are too small and uncomfortable. You just can't move like you can with a regular full sized controller like this one. This makes the gaming experience so much more enjoyable.
If you have a Nintendo Switch and you really want to enjoy the games you play, this is an absolute must have. Believe me, you will not be disappointed. I enjoyed it so much, I decide to get another one for playing with a partner/friend.
The first thing I noticed about the controller was how comfortable it is to hold. The grip is smooth and ergonomic, and the buttons are placed in a way that makes them easy to access without feeling like you're reaching too far. The controller also has a good weight to it, making it feel substantial in your hands without being too heavy.
One of the standout features of the Switch Pro Controller is its battery life. I've used it for hours on end without needing to charge it, which is a huge improvement over the Joy-Con controllers. And when it does need to be charged, it only takes a couple of hours to get back to full power.
The controller is also incredibly responsive, with no noticeable input lag. The buttons and joysticks have a great feel to them, and I've found that it's made a big difference in my gameplay. I'm able to be more precise with my movements and actions, which has helped me improve in games where accuracy is key.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Nintendo USB Switch Pro Controller to anyone who spends a lot of time gaming on the Switch. It's a game-changer that will improve your experience and make your gaming sessions more comfortable and enjoyable.
Sure, you might get some life out of them. But for how long? Weeks? Months, if you're lucky. Whether it's the syncing, controller drifting or inability to charge. Or all 3!
The reviews will always be mixed. You will be tempted to save a few pennies but how many will you go through? 3 or 4 different ones no doubt.
I must have looked at 10-15 different ones that ranged in price from 20-40 dollars and not one stood out from the rest. So... I went for the obvious choice, the official one!
Yes it costs more money. But does it? Will this out last at least 3 other controllers, more than likely!
I only needed one wireless controller so went for this one. Zero regrets. Charge is stilling going strong. Feels comfortable. Only down size is that it is more expensive, but 100% worth it. As it rarely goes on sale, you don't have to worry about when to buy it as it's only ever one price!

Para jogos que exigem que se pressione os botões muitas vezes ou que se use muito os analógicos, acabam ajudando a poupar os joy-cons, que são mais frágeis e onde pode ocorrer o "drift".
É bem confortável de se jogar, bem melhor de pegar do do que um joy-con, no geral. Mas claro que os joy-cons também têm suas vantagens, podem virar 2 controles e possuem os controles de movimento utilizados em alguns jogos específicos.
o único defeito que eu diria, é que por vezes, o nintendo switch não detecta o controle tão facilmente... Por vezes, eu tive que conectar ao cabo HDMI, junto ao switch e o controle, para ser detectado. Além disso, é um pouco mais pesado também do que um joy-con, mas isso já era esperado.
No geral, excelente controle pro Switch.
Pro:
-Comodo
-Resistente (il top con una cover)
-Tasti ottimi
-Bluetooth eccellente e veloce
Contro:
-Prezzo (non tanto un difetto, ma comunque posso capire che 70 euro di prezzo pieno può far arretrare molte persone sul comprarlo, ma fidatevi che ne vale davvero la pena.. prodotto originale sempre il TOP)
Consiglio:
-Da prendere quando è in sconto ASSOLUTAMENTE, anche delle cover sia per gli stick che per il controller stesso!
(terrò sempre aggiornate le mie recensioni su questo e su tutti i prodotti del mondo nintendo switch)
The Pro-Controller is one thing and one thing only, a great controller. The buttons and sticks are more precise and give you much more control over the game. The grip is better and more comfortable and the layout is simply more intuitive. Playing some games almost felt like an entirely new experience as the added precision from the Pro-Controller made accomplishing some feats much easier than they ever were with the Joy-Con's. If you plan on any serious gaming I feel the Pro Controllers are a must. The Joy-Cons are serviceable and fine for some games, but the added control from the Pro Controller is worth it.
Pro's:
• Much more precision and control with the Pro Controller over the Joy-Cons
• 40 hour battery life vs the joy cons 6
• Much more comfortable in the hand than the Joy-Cons
• Can be played while wired to the Switch Consol
• Slightly cheaper than the Joy-Cons
Con's:
• The Joy cons are essentially two controllers, where the Pro Controller is only one
• Heavier than the Joy-Cons. However, I felt this added weight actually helped with the comfort
• No motion tracking or other functionality that the Joy-Cons have
Thoughts:
I would say unless you need 2 more controllers, or are replacing the Joy-Cons, go with the Pro Controller. Head to head in some games like Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the player using the Pro Controller would have an advantage over the one using the Joy-Cons. The Pro is much more precise, comfortable and easier to use.
