tbh a lot of people don't use the dock that often including myself so that's why this joy con is purposely for the people who don't use the dock that much and imma buy it later ok see ya
@@ormancadam6453 it's all personal preference some people like this way better than the split pad pro and me myself I think it looks better because it doesn't make your Nintendo switch so wide and awkward to hold
@@eizlandaniel4804 I primarily use my dock, and would like to be able to switch back and forth easily, BUT... the fact that with this one I don't have to worry about the joy-con sides coming off the rails makes me still favor this one a bit more. The D-pad is my highest priority. Whichever has the best D-pad will probably win my purchase. I want to play Ghost's n Goblins outside on my steps on a warm night. With a great D-pad. My ultimate wish though is that I could find a joy con or grip with the D-pad at the top where the stick usually is. Anyone heard of something like that? Guess I could saw my SN30 Pro+ in half and glue it to the sides of the the Switch... 😅 Actually... scratch the glue, I could harvest the rails from some trash joy-cons I happen to have... hmm, getting an idea lol.
Bought this and the dedicated case and it's big and bulky as hell. But I'm loving the controller, joysticks and buttons feels more durable than the actual joycons. Only downside is that it'll drain your battery twice as fast. But it's a given since it acts like a wired controller. So expect shorter game time when playing outside.
I came back to say that I purchased one of these after watching this video a few weeks ago and I now use my switch every day now before sleeping. It’s very comfortable and works amazingly! There are a few versions of this around but I made sure to buy the “brand name” version even though it was $10-15 more then non name.
Been playing on these for about 2 weeks. I used it the first time, turned off the switch to charge, it came on when connected like normal; but the controller was not detected. Had to go into settings and re connect which was kinda annoying. It only happened once though. I kept trying to reenact to force it to do it again and it worked fine🤷🏾♂️. The D-pad is pretty bad though. If I go down it has the tendency to go right. It’s a very cheap feeling D-pad. That’s about the only issues.

Ah dude I got that one! I love the rumble. However it’s not a split pad pro killer for me due to the extra bulk and that stick on the right side. That’s really hard to beat Hori. I just wish the split pad offered a rumble option.
@@switchunboxing Thanks for answer! And the binbok joycon ? they seem to have all ! But not available in Germany and costs on their website 600 chinese dollar = 90 Dollar ! The Binbok has all ! rumble gyro battery etc
Bro you saved me some major time and you got a sub. I just got the controller and plugged it in and didn't work. I decided to look up a review and found yours. I watched and waited to see if I missed something because the instructions said to just plug it in and sure as a horse doesn't care where it goes, you said to make sure to turn on wired controllers.

I don't k ow if I'm gunna need em for monster hunter rise or not.
Hi there, I come from Germany and bought the controller because I had cramps in the handheld mod after 3 hours, but I can only recommend the one you have presented here. Nice greetings from Germany 👋🏻

This is the only brand I buy split pads from because of the gyro. The only good way to play handheld Splatoon. I played with the old model for 2 years before it gave into drift. Getting this new one tomorrow :) After a few hours of playing I can say they're just as good as old model, although a tad big for my little girl hands.

Looks better than the RetroFlag controller in my opinion. I never liked the GameCube color scheme, so I just colored the right thumbstick and buttons on my RetroFlag controller with a black Sharpie. Definitely recommend doing that if you got the RetroFlag instead of the Dobe gripcon, guys. It makes the controller look much less ugly (if you know what you’re doing).
@@cylodacoolest I only got the retroflag controller because I didn’t find out about the Dobe one until later. Plus I recently ordered the Nitro Deck controller for the Switch. It’s supposed to be 10 times better. But I won’t know until it releases.
@@YourOpinionDisregarded Oh okay, but I still don't like how you colored the buttons and stick with a black sharpie, still thinks it defeats the controller design
Ordered this one after watching the review. All is good except for the directional buttons: they are way too clicky for my taste and often register adjacent directions when clicked on. Any fix? Tia

@@Abdullah-tv8tm im going to be honest I have not played much switch after. I did play the entire Super Mario Odissey with it plus a few other games but in the last few months I played mostly PS5 but like I said when I posted it I enjoyed playing with it much better vs the joycons. I never tried the Hori "version" of this .
I love it I got to say best accessory I have ever bought for the switch also my rumble is very strong so strong I even have to turn it off on some games and I got the one with the case off Amazon.
This is my favorite joycon alternative when want to play in handheld next to the binboks. Its my preferred controller though sometimes i bring out the binboks now and again. I like to have the binbok thumbsticks and dpad as thats the only nitpick i have about the nexigo. Who knows maybe nexigo or some other company make a better grip controller. One my favorite thing is that you dock it in and shows up at a controller than a joycon, had few issues with joycons where the rails sometimes wont always be detected which be fustrating at times (Doesnt happen all time but still gets annoying and use some fixit hacks i found on youtube. With this controller grip had no issues when docked and being detected.
Got this grip on a whim and its surprisingly good. Sticks are a bit harder to move than Hori's Split Pad Pro but its solid. Right joystick is a bit lower than ideal but its a small gripe.
The sticks are shit, but hear me out. The sticks are shit since it snaps on the cardinal directions most of the time because of the deadzone, however the motion control alone is enough to compensate for this, that alone makes it significantly easier to aim. Besides the joycon sticks are far punishing on your thumbs cause of the way they're shaped and how small they are even if you buy a thumbgrip. The texture and the controller's shape is so comfortable, I've got hyperhidrosis so I sweat alot on my palm specially when it's understress, but due to the fact that the controller is so comfortable I barely sweat. Because of the texture of the controller it's not as warm on the hands compared to a rubber grip for the Joycons. I hated the thumbsticks because they don't match, as well as the left one being smaller than the right. So I modded it and changed mine with a DS2 thumbsticks and it works flawlessly. It feels like an Xbox controller, honestly it feels like what nintendo switch should've been.
I just got this little guy in my store (I work at a retro store in TX) and you were the first review I saw, glad to say I bought it and can't wait to try it out once I get off work!
So I got the Hori split pad a few months ago and the left stick has started drifting. Have you had similar experience? Could you do follow up videos of these third party controllers after a few months and let us know if they've started drifting?
@Gio Dela Cruz I use it full time now. My hands would go numb on normal joycons connected and now its not an issue at all. My only complaint is the sticks feel a little plasticy but i kinda jerry rigged my own solution for the right stick by super glue and a kontrol freak rubber top i like. The right stick has interchangeable sticks so i just prototyped on the smallest one I would never use and it worked out great.
That extra spot might be for the power cord… the Switch power cord is big… I just bought mine on Amazon and it shipped today and picking it up after work.. it does look cool
PSA dont charge your switch through the handle. It may alter the rate at which the switch is charged and the console is very sensitive to that. It could possibly brick it from what I have heard. I may be wrong but it's worth waiting for more reviews to come out to be sure
it's 20$ in my country. it's tempting but worried about 2 things: the dpad, and usb-c might cause to brick the switch. can someone share their experiences about these? especially the dpad, what other 3rd party controllers they are closed to in terms of stiffness or hardness to press on. answers are very much appreciated, tia:)
@@edgar9811 actually its really really goods... I havent notice any dead zones on my controller.. Maybe because i dont play fps games.. But i use the gyro in aiming so its not an issue on me... I highly recommend these controllers...
Binbok makes this same thing for 50 bucks, with gyro and wireless and they sync, and they are split or come with the center piece to be a wireless controller
Only interested in this for the D-pad, which apparently isn't all that impressive, and, like all other options to my knowledge, isn't placed in the primary spot. Why can't anyone release a left joy-con or controller grip specifically for retro gamers with a good D-pad placed at the top so I don't have to bend my thumb down? Absolutely nothing out there for handheld mode. Guess the search continues...
Is the hori split pad more comfortable then this?, Is it like the skull and co grip? How much heavier is it compared to the original joycons? Would appreciate a reply, thank u😅
This looks AMAZING. Big question.... comfort-wise, do you recommend this or the Hori Split Pad Pro??? I pretty much only play in handheld mode and I’m done with my hands cramping with my joycons 😂 Thank you!!!
I still have this controller and still like it. I have the eggshelk one that my brkther got me but i kind like the grip on thei ine better. I dod have gen 2 nut had issues with them. I woild keep this design and add the thumb sticks of the gen 2 style thumb sticks grips. I do like this one you seotch oit thumbstick. I did hear their was a controller that was solething between the original and eggshell stule one with built in dock
I mainly play in docked mode my JoyCoNs broke a while back and still want a portable full option that would replace the o.g ones but still fit docked and work wireless with motion and amibo functions
Hi, would you consider doing a video about the best online co-op games for switch.

@@CuteAssTiger i didn't actually sold my split pad pro, but after seeing other reviews I kinda regret buying this. People say that the deadzone thing is much more serious than this guy made us believe.
@@FS-gl9cg I actually got it. It is fine, the problem is that it drains battery a lot. Nobody mentioned that. The Split Pad Pro is superior just because of that.
Hey dude, nice vid! I have a request/favor for you. When I was 9 years old (i think) I bought a retractable controller from ipega for my phone, and I think it will work with a switch. Please if you find one of those make a vid reviewing it. Thanks
do you have any that is a joycon replacement that is like a nintento pro controller, with PROGRAMABLE buttons?? Hori fails because it's not reassignable...

One my favorite thing is that you dock it in and shows up at a controller than a joycon, had few issues with joycons where the rails sometimes wont always be detected which be fustrating at times (Doesnt happen all time but still gets annoying and use some fixit hacks i found on youtube. With this controller grip had no issues when docked and being detected.
Got this grip on a whim and its surprisingly good. Sticks are a bit harder to move than Hori's Split Pad Pro but its solid. Right joystick is a bit lower than ideal but its a small gripe.
The extended joy sticks is kinda what sold me. Super difficult to play FPS with joycons
New subscriber here!!! Awesome review, for sure going to pick this up!!!
I just ordered this can't wait to get it so tired of my drift issues this will be a good thing getting it today ordered it from Amazon
The sticks are shit, but hear me out. The sticks are shit since it snaps on the cardinal directions most of the time because of the deadzone, however the motion control alone is enough to compensate for this, that alone makes it significantly easier to aim. Besides the joycon sticks are far punishing on your thumbs cause of the way they're shaped and how small they are even if you buy a thumbgrip.
The texture and the controller's shape is so comfortable, I've got hyperhidrosis so I sweat alot on my palm specially when it's understress, but due to the fact that the controller is so comfortable I barely sweat. Because of the texture of the controller it's not as warm on the hands compared to a rubber grip for the Joycons.
I hated the thumbsticks because they don't match, as well as the left one being smaller than the right. So I modded it and changed mine with a DS2 thumbsticks and it works flawlessly. It feels like an Xbox controller, honestly it feels like what nintendo switch should've been.
What do you mean with ds2 thumbsticks? When i search goodle it says ps4 etc thumbsticks
I just got this little guy in my store (I work at a retro store in TX) and you were the first review I saw, glad to say I bought it and can't wait to try it out once I get off work!
How’d you like it?
After a week of having I must say best controller for the switch I can finally play Rocket League without joycon drift
Does it make the battery drain faster??
@@zerrot5302 yes but not by much I get around 3.5 hours on rocket league with medium brightness
How is the dead zone on the sticks?
I'm planning on playing borderlands with these :)
@@StuieHunter so far they have been recently great for me with the addition to no joycon drift 🤣 I could play Warface and Rocket league so much better
@@HunchoGaming762 thanks for the reply :) I think I might take a gamble on this and see if I like them too :)
Happy gaming to you :)
the way dobe did is like SEGA gamegear vibe
mann youre my go to when im lookin for a good honest review, keep up the good work.
I got this along with my switch and bought a split pd pro used for $18 a steal
First time viewer loved the video. I can’t help but notice how much your emblem looks like All Might
Hahaha it does! Never noticed that before. It’s actually a blupee from breath of the wild. Thanks for watching
Get rid of the orange. Make it all in black and I'll buy one.
Just custom it, paint, no consequence, whole thing is black anyway
I live in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 in if you want to buy it you can find it on Banggood or AliExpress or noon 150 ريال
So I got the Hori split pad a few months ago and the left stick has started drifting. Have you had similar experience? Could you do follow up videos of these third party controllers after a few months and let us know if they've started drifting?
I love this. It is so comfortable in my hands. Perfect for Smash Bros. I play handheld 92% of the time. This is perfect!
Thanks for the great review. Bought it.
@Gio Dela Cruz I use it full time now. My hands would go numb on normal joycons connected and now its not an issue at all. My only complaint is the sticks feel a little plasticy but i kinda jerry rigged my own solution for the right stick by super glue and a kontrol freak rubber top i like. The right stick has interchangeable sticks so i just prototyped on the smallest one I would never use and it worked out great.
That extra spot might be for the power cord… the Switch power cord is big… I just bought mine on Amazon and it shipped today and picking it up after work.. it does look cool
Wished for this for christmas and then I hear the part about the not for small hands .... ffs I'm a hobbit dammit xD
This might be a good addition! Would make portable way more enjoyable!
D-pad being "fine" is a deal breaker for me. Guess I won't be using this for Street Fighter or King of Fighters on the go.
I found it on Amazon with the case and it fits both of the Nintendos
I like the Hori Split Pad Pro more because I can dock my switch while they are attached. I wish I could do that with this product.
To be fair why would you have to use them anyway while your system is Dot unless you're using them as a controller
PSA dont charge your switch through the handle. It may alter the rate at which the switch is charged and the console is very sensitive to that. It could possibly brick it from what I have heard. I may be wrong but it's worth waiting for more reviews to come out to be sure
I charge my Switch With this grip one year almost and i have no Problems :) the grip have the PD Protocol like the Switch
@@Denisstrix glad to hear you had a good experience with it. I haven't gotten it myself but Ill take a look at it and see if it fits my needs.
I bought it today with a case 😊
How is it?
@@edgar9811 It's decent. I have a little problem with the D pad though it has a delayed response sometimes
it's 20$ in my country. it's tempting but worried about 2 things: the dpad, and usb-c might cause to brick the switch.
can someone share their experiences about these? especially the dpad, what other 3rd party controllers they are closed to in terms of stiffness or hardness to press on.
answers are very much appreciated, tia:)
There are no reports on switch bricking because of 3rd party controller unline docks and chargers...
I just bought my controller online.. Ill let you know how they feel once i receive them
@@heindiez thanks, comment is appreciated!
@@heindiez how is it? And are the dead zones very noticeable?
@@edgar9811 actually its really really goods... I havent notice any dead zones on my controller.. Maybe because i dont play fps games.. But i use the gyro in aiming so its not an issue on me... I highly recommend these controllers...
I have a feeling that backplate can't be good for cooling.
Wow that’s awesome looks great
Binbok makes this same thing for 50 bucks, with gyro and wireless and they sync, and they are split or come with the center piece to be a wireless controller
Only interested in this for the D-pad, which apparently isn't all that impressive, and, like all other options to my knowledge, isn't placed in the primary spot. Why can't anyone release a left joy-con or controller grip specifically for retro gamers with a good D-pad placed at the top so I don't have to bend my thumb down? Absolutely nothing out there for handheld mode. Guess the search continues...
Got this controller cuz of u and I absolutely love it only down fall is i cant seem to find the carrying case for it anywhere online. Any links?
I wonder what brand of Bluetooth adapter will still fit on this case... any idea?
I tried to look for this on amazon Canada but I could not seem to find it. Great content! 😀
I saw the latest Dobe TNS 19252b what is the difference between the TNS 19252 and 19252b?
19252b is an "upgraded ver" with wider grips and an added turbo function
@@dwigsobed08 I see. Thank you for the info.
I am definitely going to buy it because of wobble issue with the original joy cons... it makes me crazy while playing...
Just bought this dobe on shoope with the bag for around 25USD :3
dayum those intro shots are so dope
Is the hori split pad more comfortable then this?, Is it like the skull and co grip? How much heavier is it compared to the original joycons? Would appreciate a reply, thank u😅
Sad about the lack of replies...did you make a decision?
Yes the Split Pad is more comfortable and the sticks are better and it’s lighter.
@@artypsnsky4188 haha 😭
I bought a switch lite instead..luv it😄
It’s for the square game case that holds like 12 games
This looks AMAZING. Big question.... comfort-wise, do you recommend this or the Hori Split Pad Pro??? I pretty much only play in handheld mode and I’m done with my hands cramping with my joycons 😂 Thank you!!!
Highly recommended this. I just returned the split pad pro it’s feels weird in the hands but this feels right
@@kitotv6943 nice, awesome to hear!!! Thanks!!
@@kitotv6943 is your controller still work fine?
Do you still have this? I was thinking about getting it.
I took it out of the box and it didn’t connect at all despite me turning on the wired communication
I still have this controller and still like it. I have the eggshelk one that my brkther got me but i kind like the grip on thei ine better. I dod have gen 2 nut had issues with them. I woild keep this design and add the thumb sticks of the gen 2 style thumb sticks grips. I do like this one you seotch oit thumbstick. I did hear their was a controller that was solething between the original and eggshell stule one with built in dock
loving mine. they sent it to me for testing.
Hey, how durable are these? I’ve had issues with the Hori and others having bad sticks or triggers.
On Amazon UK it's just listed as the 'Zacro Controller for N-Switch'. I might get it, idk I think the Split Pad Pro is more for me.
I hate the gyro, so the split pad pro is perfect for me.
However this one seems decent.
Con can't power the bluetooth device by the USB-C port. Do u know of a way to power?
I mainly play in docked mode my JoyCoNs broke a while back and still want a portable full option that would replace the o.g ones but still fit docked and work wireless with motion and amibo functions
No such thing exists as of this writing.
Hi, would you consider doing a video about the best online co-op games for switch. I'm planning on getting 2 switch lites (1 for me and 1 for my daughter) to play online with her when I'm away from home
She only likes to play 2 player games together, So my plan is to get 2 lites for us to play online together 🙂
Stardew valley is a great game. Play it with my son quite a bit.
Except it covers the meaning overheating will be a massive issue
I'm selling my split pad pro and my extra power brick right now to get this.
@@CuteAssTiger i didn't actually sold my split pad pro, but after seeing other reviews I kinda regret buying this. People say that the deadzone thing is much more serious than this guy made us believe.
what do you reccommend
@@FS-gl9cg I actually got it. It is fine, the problem is that it drains battery a lot. Nobody mentioned that. The Split Pad Pro is superior just because of that.
how does the buttons feel like? are they similar to joycon buttons or switch lite buttons?
I ordered this the other day because of this video. Cheers, Mate!
How is it?
I had a good time. Never went back to my Joy Cons.
Hey dude, nice vid! I have a request/favor for you. When I was 9 years old (i think) I bought a retractable controller from ipega for my phone, and I think it will work with a switch. Please if you find one of those make a vid reviewing it. Thanks
How good is it for FPS games?
do you have any that is a joycon replacement that is like a nintento pro controller, with PROGRAMABLE buttons?? Hori fails because it's not reassignable...
The only reason I prefer the split pad is because I use it with a battery case
Bought from your link man...sweet video and I subbed, hope your channel flourishes!
I really appreciate that a ton. Thank you!
How is it?
@@edgar9811 its fire asf! Really comfortable
