Fantastic.
Hori Split Pads are my absolute favorite switch controller, hands down. Being able to then utilize them in the same way as any other standard controller type, as opposed to only operating in handheld, is just perfect. I already owned a set of them, the gold and black Pikachu edition, but I love them so much that it was worth it to me to order this with an extra pair, just to have a spare set! I do wish it could work wirelessly and be recharged, but it’s not that big of a deal to me in the grand scheme of things. Also, the cord length is quite ample, so no issues there. No lag/latency from inputs, no fuss, just plug and play perfection. These are worth the purchase!

Necessity for larger hands
I was looking for a controller to add to my switch collection that actually fit my hands, as long periods of use end up with painful and cramps, and this is the solution. If you also have larger sized hands, you need to get these as they are so much more comfortable. Sure, you do lose the motion tracking from the original controllers, but with the joycons, that’s at the expense of comfort. I end up choosing these every time over the joycons. The buttons and joysticks feel premium, and have a great feel in the hand. I would recommend these to any of my friends, including you.

Improved comfort
This feels like a substantial upgrade for playing Switch games in portable mode. The buttons are bigger, the joysticks are bigger, the D pad feels comfortable, and the added paddles on the back are handy. It also has a turbo and autofire setting for buttons. This is exactly what I wished the joycons were.Potential drawbacks are no rumble, amiibo or gyro features are included with the splitpad. Also, I haven’t found a way to test it but I wouldn’t jump to the conclusion that the bigger analogue sticks make them more precise. Safe to assume that at best they are just as good as the Pro Controller that Nintendo makes however even those sticks have a shorter range measurement than say an Xbox controller. You can test this on PC in Steam with the analogue stick calibration settings.None of that matters to me though. This is the best way to play the Switch in portable mode in my opinion. I wouldn’t even consider getting a Switch 2 until Hori makes a version of these for it. I’m just not a fan of the joycons, they are way too small.

¡Este control es mi control principal ahora, tiene botones extra, modo turbo, lo tiene todo!
Siempre me han gustado los controles grandes, porque tengo manos grandes y un control pequeño es muy incómodo de jugar, pero este control es grande y adaptable tiene esas luces rojas, y un modo turbo y unos botones programables por sà solos se puede programar y copiar la función de cualquier otro botón del control, tiene una lectura rápida de movimientos, no se me ha trabado ni una sola vez.El control es simplemente perfecto, me preocupaba que no sea inalámbrico, pero tiene un cable tan largo que ya no es necesario que sea inalámbrico, es justo lo que buscaba es realmente bueno la entrega llegó rápido, no tengo ninguna desventaja que decir sobre este control, me encanta el diseño, el tamaño, los las funciones, lo adaptable que es sus botones adicionales, su tacto, el material todo es mi opinión sincera, le doy cinco estrellas sólidas de mi parte, realmente me encanta, y ahora mismo es mi control principal, no pienso usar otro control que no sea este, lo adoro.

A handy alternative, if you are good with the features
I bought these to replace another Hori split pad set, which lasted 6 years until they met an untimely demise (sheared off after a kid dropped my switch down a flight of stairs…)This version comes with a wired USB dongle that they can dock into, turning them into a wired USB controller for the switch. Worth noting: when the controllers are attached directly to the switch, they present as JOY-CONS. When they are attached to the wired adapter, they present as a USB GAMEPAD. This matters for some types of games that don’t support gamepads. The added versatility is nice, because many third-party options show as gamepads regardless of how they attach to the Switch.The controls are decent for a third-party product. They won’t match Nintendo, but they are good enough. They feel comfortable for larger hands, and my kids prefer them over the original joy-cons.The biggest downside to this unit, are the number of features left on the table: no gyro, no rumble, and no power of their own (must be attached to the switch or the gamepad dongle). If a game requires detached joy-cons or gyro controls, these won’t work for you.That said, they are one of the few third-party options that properly present as joy-cons when docked into the switch. All of these third-party options make compromises to hit a competitive price, and you will have to decide which compromises make sense to you.

A Great Wired/Handheld option for people with big hands
I have big hands, so the Joy-Cons are my least favorite controller.This one is way better for big hands, or if you want regular-sized buttons. Only downside is no Gyro, but you can use it handheld or Wired and it works GREAT. Bought it 2 years ago and just remembered to review it, but it’s been working great since then, no issues.

This is amazing. Huge upgrade from Joy-Cons. Joy-cons feel finicky and cheap, more like toys. These are robust and comfortable in hand. The analog sticks are also much bigger and feel more accurate. The buttons are nice and clicky and it’s nice to be able to connect it in docked mode.

Since it has almost no feature at all (no Bluetooth, no rumble, no gyro, no nfc and it’s made of cheap plastic) it must be priced at most the half of the offered price.3 STARS for one for the most overpriced joysticks in the market is so fair I believe…

Un controller che mi ha stupito, l’ho comprato per mio figlio perché ci si può collegare la cuffia per giocare on line. Una volta estratto dalla scatola la prima sensazione é di una alta qualità , controller analogici rapidi e scorrevoli bottoni ben distanziati e che restituiscono un fantastico feedback. Il primo test ha dimostrato la sensazione avuta nel unboxing. Funzione turbo comoda, tasti programmabili superbi.Tenete a mente che non è wireless ha un cavo USB, lunghissimo……altra nota positiva.I due controller posso attaccarsi alla Switch per sostituire i joycon originaleilgiorando l’impugnatura.

Son seul défaut est qu’elle n’est pas sans fil. Les macros se font rapidement et les sticks n’ont pas encore drift a ce jour

La marca HORI es sinónimo de calidad, no son los productos más económicos, pero valen cada centavo. Soy usuario de la marca desde el 2007 que compré micas y un stylus para mi Nintendo DS Lite.Estos controles son robustos, pero a la vez ligeros, llevo usándolos más de 2 años con juegos demandantes como Ninja Gaiden Master Collection y hasta el momento todos los botones funcionan perfecto y las palancas no presentan DRIFT.
