    apparently there are some fake switch pro controllers that now have been able to get the update controller firmware update too. And nfc feature.
    Or some are official switch pro (inner components) but with the (exclusive shell as a fake copy that is reshelled.)
    These fake switch pro controllers are getting more complex each day.
    Only way to know if it’s real is the hd rumble. The cheap ones won’t use the real part since it’s too expensive. Only the original will have it.

    Nice video but there are many wrong statements: I have both a half 2018 and a half 2023 original controllers , both standard black and I opened them to check inside (same board as shown by you and HD rumble). The 2018 doesn't have the marks on the left handle but still has a flat spot in the same place without the dots of the texture, also the text and logos on the back (the one of your scratch test) protrude, meanwhile on the 2023 are engraved. I think you can't really tell without opening.

      So what are you saying? If you only have one switch pro controller it’s harder to compare and know if it’s legit or not.

      I bought 3 fake controllers and the bad thing is they can't update the firmware, had trigger and gyro drift problems it was annoying so I'd rather buy the original so that's what I did and no problems so far.
