I love these joycons. I researched the HELL out of various third party joycons before settling on these I love the rgb function that’s my favorite part cause I’ve always wanted something like that but rgb stuff is usually for pcs and I don’t have a pc. I had some trouble with them for a while but after updating the firmware on my laptop it fixed them problem and they’re still a fantastic third party joycon pair.
Nowadays there are so many different ones that are similar to these and even a bunch made by binbok themselves so it's very easy to get confused and or buy the wrong one.
Good review! I've been thinking on buying those too, I'm just worried that the quality may vary from one product to another.. they seem pretty inconsistent. But they do look really nice and I think they feel better in the hand than normal joy cons too. Also, you deserve more followers!
Thank you so much! And I totally understand that! It’s the risky part of buying from these random weird brands. Thankfully this one seems to be fairly consistent, but you definitely have to buy at your own risk!
Just got these 5 mins ago and they feel great to use but the shoulder buttons are horrendously loud. If they were the same volume as the original joycons or less then they would be absolutely perfect. Going to sell them on or return them as I don’t think I can tolerate that much clicking.
Have had them for about 2 months now. My first set had same issue with right remote z button being extra clicky compares to the left so returned them. 2nd pair came In first 2 weeks right remote was definitely quiter than the first set, but after being used the clicking noise did get louder to how it was on the first pair.... I wonder if something internally gets worn out amd causes it to make the noise. Other than that definitely best remote available for the switch.
great review on those joycons. I've been meaning to get a pair of these real soon, which brings me to a question for you: have you tried using it on PC(through joyshockmapper app or an emulator) before? If you did, have you ever experienced disconnection or input delay issues?
Hmm🤔 I haven’t tried using these on pc. They might work with a Bluetooth connection, which then I would bet there’s a pretty significant input delay. Sadly, wired would be a challenge since you would need a USB C cable ran to each Joycon
No dead zones that I’ve noticed! For build quality, it’s definitely a cheaper plastic than standard joycons. But the HD rumble feels just as good to me, and the motion controls are solid!
@@BaxTechYT They are too stiff. Nexigo joy cons d-pad is better, 75% close to the nintendo pro controller, and they are similar to the standard binbok in size but they do not have the slim version and their buttons are not as clicky as binboks. I wish binbok can just copy nexigo's d-pad and that would be the dream combo.
@@MrLorenzoVidsthis is why traditnal mushy dpads are better > like the 8bitdo pro 2 I have the gameboy edition it’s amazing I don’t play docked only handheld and tabletop mode I have the switch OLED My custom gameboy joycons broke tho . So maybe I’ll get the retroflag not the nitrodeck
I still wondering on these, I own the Split Pad ones which i love but wishing i had controller for TV mode but don't want to spend so much ona controller, wish i knew if these good or should try cheaper ones for that.
These have been very solid for me so far! Plus they’re pretty dang cheap. And the even come with the lil rail so you can use them as a standalone controller!
Got mite fore a year now.. My only prob is that the lock mechanism is kind of a soft plastic.. and due to wear and tear a sort of groove have developed.. now it would slide of from time to time.. or just randomly disconnects.
@@BaxTechYT i went stone age on mine, stuck 3 pieces of paper in the railings to tighten it up a bit so it wont slide off.. and never took it off again.. But aside from that.. its solid and haven't experienced drifft yet..
I love this controller except for when I watch crunchyroll. my switch when docked is the only device in my room that allows me to watch CR on my TV (Samsung). Can’t watch a full episode without the controllers falling asleep. If anyone knows how to stop them from shutting off please let me know.
Hello, I am considering buying these binbok slim joy cons since I am having trouble with L trigger with my original one. I would like to ask, have you tried playing first person shooting with these binbok joy cons and does it have any delays? And another. Does the these binbok joy cons doesn't turn off if you turn off (not sleep) your nintendo switch. Sorry for too many questions. I just want to make sure with what I am buying. 😅
Thanks for commenting! I have not tried these with FPS games, theres not any on switch that appeal to me. But they can wake and turn off your switch! Same functionality as the standard joycon, just a lot cheaper!
I got them yesterday, the joysticks are already ruined somehow. They crack and stops whenever I use them. Idk what to do, do you have any tips? I spent $80 for them for all the shipping and stuff pls help
Ok, but is there not a way to fix them? Like switch out the joysticks or oil them or anything. It took like 3 weeks to get them so I really want to keep them yk
@@lego-bricksinmotion9638 hmm I really don’t know. Amazon has aftermarket joysticks, but finding the right ones to fit the binboks might be a challenge
@@BaxTechYT yeah I ended up ordering the og pair a lot of people were saying with the slims their hands tend to cramp up after a sesh so I thought it was safer to go with the bigger pair since I have larger hands
@@BaxTechYTupdate. The clickiness in the right trigger broke and became super sensitive. The second you make contact it will shoot. I bought split pad compact and they were great but I ended up buying these again. I just like them that much more even with the hori having back buttons. These are still my daily drivers for when I travel or just play on the couch as they are a bit smaller which make it compact. Any thoughts on a proper case for them?
Lots of reviews in Amazon with the L1 or R1 buttons snapped off. Mine did too after 10 months. Prob the best shape for pro joycons but poor build quality.

Heck yeah, they’re so good! Apparently they’re next to impossible to find now. Glad I snagged a pair before they went away
Nowadays there are so many different ones that are similar to these and even a bunch made by binbok themselves so it's very easy to get confused and or buy the wrong one.
I don’t understand why Nintendo won’t make these for real
Right?! Nintendo just hates giving the fans what they want🤣
Probably would cost WAY more, seeing the regular joycons cost 80$
I cant get over how under talked a iut these are. They are perfect

Liked and subbed, great content. You pointed out things no other channel has, appreciate you 👍
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoy the content🙏🏻
Great review! But as a neatfreak i always get distracted by dust(where your dock was) en dirt on everything. Especially the switch screen 🤢
🤣you’re a better person than me. My three dogs make sure everything stays dusty
Can you do binbok white slim vs the chunkier one
looks like they improved them since i got mine a couple years back
They’ve definitely made them better over time! Now they just need to rerelease these with Hall effect joysticks
Are you going to try the new NYXI Blitz Joy-Pads? They look so good!
I honestly didn’t know about them, but they’re on my radar now! Thanks for the suggestion!!
Could u try reviewing the G-Case for the Switch? Or do your top 10 Switch games?
I do have a case video in the works, but it’s the Satisfye grip!
How are they holding out after a year? Any issues?
Just got these 5 mins ago and they feel great to use but the shoulder buttons are horrendously loud.

What site did u find them on

I think a lot of it just comes down to an overall lack of quality control! But all in all, I can't complain. They're hard to beat for the price!
Why was no one talking about the random peach emojis like every 5 second😭
Doesnt have a joycon atm and thinking either going nintendo brand or one these third party style ones for games that the joycon does feel better.
They’re a solid choice!

@@BaxTechYT i see. that's unfortunate. thanks for the reply
@@otppoppy787 no problem!
Is there any dead zone with these joysticks? And are the effects and overall quality similar to that of the normal joycons?
No dead zones that I’ve noticed! For build quality, it’s definitely a cheaper plastic than standard joycons. But the HD rumble feels just as good to me, and the motion controls are solid!
@@BaxTechYT Can you test it please? Other reports say they definitely have but. I wonder whether they might have fixed it...
I had these. they did have deadline problems. only ones with no deadline issues is the hori split pad, official joycons and switch pro controller
Any updates on joy con drift?’
They are almost perfect. I just wish they have a better d-pad
Really? I loved the dpad. It's a little small, but for how compact these are I can handle it
@@BaxTechYT They are too stiff. Nexigo joy cons d-pad is better, 75% close to the nintendo pro controller, and they are similar to the standard binbok in size but they do not have the slim version and their buttons are not as clicky as binboks.

@@MrLorenzoVidsthis is why traditnal mushy dpads are better >

Can’t watch a full episode without the controllers falling asleep. If anyone knows how to stop them from shutting off please let me know.
If nintendo brought out a lite oled Id buy it. I play pretty much portable most of time and i hate joycon wiggle
I feel that. I'm just hoping we get a new Switch eventually

@@geellax3733 no problem! Glad I could help!
I'm thinking of getting these for my Nintendo Switch as my joy-cons getting loose and won't stay connected time after time
They're good! They can get a little loose if you take them on and off a lot. But way cheaper than real joycons!
@@BaxTechYT is the quality very good on the binbok?
@@MrMartellSincere the only complaint i have is the dpad, it’s too mushy for me.
Quality can be hit or miss from what I've found! No issues on mine, but sometimes you might run into a bad pair
are these Binbok Slim joycon & iine Genius the same product with diffrent brand name?
Can anyone keep me updated with whether their deadzones got fixed? Definitely not buying them before they get rid of that..
I didn't have any deadzone issues on mine!
I had the v1 version of the binbok, very good 🙂
I gotta try the v1 sometime! They’re crazy good for the price
Have had them for 2 months and suddenly, My right trigger stopped working. Sent them an email I hope they send me new one for free or repair them
Fingers crossed! That's the sketchy part of buying from these random companies
Hi, do you know about some pro joycons the same size as the originals?
Hmm I'm really not sure. Usually to add pro level features, the size has to be increased to accommodate the extra buttons
I got them yesterday, the joysticks are already ruined somehow. They crack and stops whenever I use them. Idk what to do, do you have any tips? I spent $80 for them for all the shipping and stuff pls help
I would contact them or the website you bought them through! If it's amazon, they should allow you to return or exchange them!
Ok, but is there not a way to fix them? Like switch out the joysticks or oil them or anything. It took like 3 weeks to get them so I really want to keep them yk
@@lego-bricksinmotion9638 hmm I really don’t know. Amazon has aftermarket joysticks, but finding the right ones to fit the binboks might be a challenge
Would you recommend the slim or regular version?
I love the slims, but a lot of my friends prefer the chunky boiz
@@BaxTechYT yeah I ended up ordering the og pair a lot of people were saying with the slims their hands tend to cramp up after a sesh so I thought it was safer to go with the bigger pair since I have larger hands
I’ve had mine for about 5 months and I’m a daily gamer and I haven’t had any drift issues yet
Nice! That's definitely good to know. Mine are still holding strong!

Alright, do the joycons slip a bit on the console in handheld mode?
Mine have a little play on one of the joycon
@@BaxTechYTthanks, should I go for these or just stick to the normal ones?
@@BaxTechYTand is there any drift?
@@Princeforrealz I love these. I suggest keeping both on hand
@@Princeforrealz no drift yet. But they’re not Hall effect, so it could happen eventually
Lots of reviews in Amazon with the L1 or R1 buttons snapped off. Mine did too after 10 months. Prob the best shape for pro joycons but poor build quality.
Hmm thankfully that hasn't happened to mine. They're unavailable on Amazon now, which might be the result of the issues people are having with them
do these support amibo?
Sadly no:(
Any drift yet?
Nope! Which I switch around between these and a few other pairs quite often
@@BaxTechYT nice just ordered some glad to see ur doing well after all these months
came for the joycons clicked like for the bASS
Bro i bought my binbok joycons in December and I still haven’t gotten them what should I do
If you ordered them from Amazon I would submit a refund request!
Well I ordered them from doyoky
the link is dead.
Yeah, sadly these are no longer available:( didn’t wanna replace the link with a product I haven’t tested
