Works decently with a switch. Great for those retro games
This controller is pretty much a super nintendo controller with two analog sticks attached to it. Honestly this was a must for me considering the nintendo stopped selling the super nintendo controller for switch. This one works just as well while also giving you the option of play other games with it. I love having this controller for the super nintendo feel. The controller feels a tad bit cheaper in material but it works well. The one thing I noticed about this right out of the box is that the battery was completely dead so I recommend just letting it charge at least an hour before trying to pair it. The pairing was pretty simple. You just power the device on and follow the same way you would pair a controller on the switch. Honestly if you want less headache it does come with a type c cable, I would recommend just plug it in and you are good to go. You only need to pair it once and it will auto pair after that. It has all the needed controls to control your switch from home button to screen shots. It has the control number on the bottom right in the front of the controller. It does charge via type c which is great. The controls are pretty on point. I tried this with the classic nintendo and super nintendo app on the switch and it make it feel like the classic game play again. I could also switch to other games that require analog stick like pokemon and it works great. The buttons themselves are pretty responsive. It does not feel like it will wear down any time soon. There is no drift or lagging. The battery can take up to two hours to full charge and last up to four or so hours. It reaches pretty far but you will notice a lag or disconnect as the battery gets closer and closer to 0%. Overall this is a pretty good retro controller to have for your switch. You can pair this with your computer as well if you want but I primarily use it for the switch. It gives me that nostalgic feeling when playing retro games on the switch while giving me the option to use this controller on modern games. It is very responsive and last for some time without needing to be charged. It will also work while being charged. The only issue I would say when you receive this is the battery may be dead like mine so just plug it in to charge for a few minutes of that is the case. Also that you will notice a material difference between this and the original controller but it does not effect performance.

Great controller
I like the size of the controller. Comfortable for my hands, easy to program and gives a nostalgic feel.

Budget controller - satisfying level of quality
I bought this controller primarily for the switch. The controller has a cheaper feel, but buttons and d-pad have an adequate level of quality. The right amount of clickiness. Not mushy. The analog sticks work well and the placement is fine even for larger hands. The vibration is maybe a bit strong and leaves something to be desired but I doubt vibration would make or break someone’s decision to buy this controller. Battery life is on the shorter side but really not an issue, especially if it’s just a spare controller. Just plug it in after your session. I had no issues getting it to connect. Just make sure to make the change in settings regarding wired pro controllers function. I’d buy a second if it was needed, the price is right.

Comfy controller
It's not perfect but it works great and for the price it is actually worth it.

It's not perfect, but it's decent enough...
The controller alone is pretty decent at best. It feels comfortable to hold, it's pretty responsive, and it has a good battery life. The main problem I have with controller is that the the buttons in the middle (+, -, home, Turbo) are places in an uncreative fashion, and there's no capture button to be found anywhere on the controller. Another problem I have is that the Left and Right Joysticks feel slippery at touch and they have no grip (disregarding the grip that comes with the controller), and the joystick is too thin, making it feel rather uncomfortable when trying to play certain games that require fast movements and reaction. Overall, it's good enough.

Exactly what I was hoping it would be!
The controller is the same size as the old SNES controller, but slightly thicker to accommodate the extra L/R rows of buttons. Setting it up on the Switch was easy once I read the instructions. The color-coded buttons were especially helpful for my younger players as I could direct them to hit the Green or Blue button.The included photo of the bottom shows the nice bump downs which help with the comfortable feel while using this controller in my older gamer hands.Overall, it's an excellent value for my needs! I plan on ordering a few more in the near future. few more in the near future.

It's totally worth it! DO IT!
This controller is really awesome. I was afraid I might be falling for the "nastalgia" factor of it, but it really does offer a great experience. This controller does have motion control built in, just like your joycon controllers. The spacing on this controller is a bit small but I do find it superior to the Joycon handheld "joint" spacing. If you use other systems like PS4 and like to play your switch too, this controller, I find, is easier to switch to after playing with PS styled controller. The only improvements I would add if I could, is the weight! It's super light. In fact when I received it, I thought it might be fake. Well it's very real. It's just, well, weightless. I do wish It was heavier, to give me confidence that it won't shatter if I drop it, and just that extra "wow" factor of it being a nostalgic controller.It is chargeable with a type C charger. So those who are still hanging onto the micro USBs might find it hard to find a replacement around the house. But if does come with a type C charging cable.In summery, this controller works! It's light, and it's cheap. Almost too good to be true, but it is very true my friend. Pick up one of these pieces of nostalgia and make your gaming experience just this much better.

Dont do it
I used this thing for two days and about two hours total and the right joystick is already messed up to where its constantly being tilted. Unreal. Stay away from off brand controllers. I just wanted a nice deal and now im paying the price.

Great old school style modern controller
I bought this controller to use with my Switch. I play the classic SNES games a lot and found the Switch controller was difficult with those games. This makes the SNES games easier to play and was exactly what I was looking for a good quality classic wireless SNES style controller. Works great would recommend for anyone looking for a wireless controller.

Great controller... Service team great if there is an issue
I really enjoy using this controller, works and feels great... no lag or delay like another controller I had bought... unfortunately it stopped working after a month or so... their service team reached out and has offered to send a replacement... it’s understandable that even with great products there’s issues every once in a while, but with the service team helping out I am still very happy with the purchase... great value and controller, and great service if you happen to have an issue

Bueno por el precio
Aunque se siente de calidad un tanto barata, es acorde al precio que pagas y cumple su función, en general es cómodo y bueno para emuladores y otros juegos estilo 2D, eso en PC, en N Switch sin problema y funcionando muy bien.

A great controller for the price.
It works with PC and it's a bit of a pain getting it working with Android, but it works great with Switch. It even has motion controls.

So much better than the joycons
I picked two of these up as the joycons were just too much of a pain to use for most games. The joysticks themselves on the joycons are way too sensitive, and have a very limited range of forgiveness for being slightly off. It was causing a lot of frustration on quite a few games where a joystick is just not really needed. These have been great thus far. Worked right out of the box and charging them doesn't take long. Playing doctor mario, or really literally any game at all that doesn't expressly need a joystick is just 10x more pleasant. The size in hand is comfortable and buttons are easy to access.I am going to try these with zelda next to see how that works out, but it might be a challenge since that game uses every single component of the joycons, albeit not always very well.
