I'm a semi-new Switch OLED owner with a fondness for old school membrane buttons, so the joycons to me are somewhat unpleasant to use. Zelda ToTK in particular has poorly thought out controls, so getting a controller with bindable/programmable grip buttons has increased my enjoyment of the game! I have been surprised by this Funlab Firefly Luminous controller so far and I have to recommend it at the US $30 price point. It feels like a blend of an Xbox One/X/S controller with a Switch Pro Controller, with a hint of Sega Genesis in the D-pad (cross-style spare comes in box). Now I can jump while running plus moving the camera, and this gives me a sense of fluid control usually reserved for mouse and keyboard.
Unless Nintendo radically changes the control scheme, I hope these controllers work on the Switch successor. It makes me feel weird investing in a controller or several this late into the console generation without knowing. Even still, fantastic run down video and breakdown of each controller. Very much appreciated!
I had a Rival Labs controller that was $30, it lasted 3 years before getting stick drift. Had gyro and rumble and battery life was decent. GameSir Nova Lite having Hall Effect sticks is great especially at the price point. I love the feel of the controller especially the dpad for 2D games.
I haven't charged it since I received it. You can check my original video covering it for more. I used it just yesterday and I have been playing every game on my switch with it as my main controller. It's listed as 12 hours of gameplay. So far it seems to be true.

I can't imagine a reason for Nintendo to remove Bluetooth, so probably nothing to be worried about!

Really good video, i wanted to buy a pro controler but the the stick drift issue is not tolerable for that price. I'll pick Game sir nova.
I just spent $20 on a wireless usb adapter for the dock so I can use my ps4 controller on it 🤷♂
Have you tested the battery life on the gamesir nova and can you share the results? thanks :)

How does the easysmx x05 compare to the nova?
I prefer the Nova. Nova feels better and has HD rumble.
My Nintendo switch pro controller has designs on it I thought that was the standard but looking at yours I guess mine is not the standard
Standard is simple black. There are eight different variations, if I'm not mistaken.
@@RedBandanaGaming okay thanks for telling me
@@RedBandanaGaming I appreciate the info
Awesome video I believe no because there better version out there
I bought the switch pro controller used $48
