Just ordered one of these myself today. I play mainly in handheld and have been using the split pad pro for almost a year on my OLED and I like how everything looks tighter and has a true pro controller use to it with the rear buttons. The fact these have gyro and rumble are just extra added bonuses. Definitely looking forward to when it arrives.

[@RoXolid]

Glad to hear it, I hope you enjoy it when it arrives

[@onetwo6039]

I really wish the split pad pro had rumble. They are definitely big enough to fit the motors.

[@RoXolid]

There are so many misses on the split pad Pro I don't understand why so many people love it

[@onetwo6039]

@@RoXolid I like them because they are a good size for my large hands and much more comfortable than the joycons. I don't love them because of the lack of rumble. So I play with the kinvoca 3rs party joycons or I'll use a tablet holder / stand with a pro controller.

Can you please tell me if your switches battery life is much worse while using this? I'm looking for the best controller-like alternative. I've been looking into these "grip case" style ones like the one you reviewed in this video, and the "split pad pro" kind, including different brands of them, and the type. I just want something that feels good but doesn't drain my battery faster, possibly something that improves my battery if you know of anything.

[@RoXolid]

Battery difference is nothing significant enough to report.

[@jessecrum8879]

@@RoXolid Thank you much. This looks like a great product, my only concern was if it made the battery life worse. You know because the original joycons had their own battery so just had to ask

The thumbsticks and dpad be better but other than that its still my favorite controller. i had thinking about getting nitrodeck but unsure if i should get it if i have this style controller already

[@nosfer4tu188]

I've been planning to buy the Dobe controller and I've been wondering how much battery that controller consumes. Does it drain your battery much faster? I'm currently trying to re-use my old switch and the battery health is not at top condition anymore so I'm wondering if that controller drains your battery fast.

Right there with you on Breath of the Wild. I played every LOZ game and have loved most of them. For whatever reason BOW just doesn't click with me. Super Metroid on the other hand, loved it. Picked it up on launch day and played until complete and it was amazing.

[@RoXolid]

I just never gotten sucked into it

[@metalrex]

Another question, I am planning to get a portable screen monitor that connects with type C. Would this Dobe controller work if I connect c type cable to it, instead of directly to switch screen? Kinda already got used to bigger buttons of Dobe

[@RoXolid]

I don't think that'll work. It would be like trying to play with the Joy Cons attached to the system while in docked mode, which doesn't work.

Bro got this for me for Christmas along with the carrying case. Thiugh he accidently got me an extra controller as he didnt realize case came with the controller in it.,somi got two controllefs and carrying bag. This style controller is still my favorite controller for switch, though i had been wanting ntirodeck i been hearing mixed reviews about it and the dobe sems like it fit better for my hands and easied to get the swith out. I still wish they made the thumbsticks the same size so you i can put the spare tnumbstick with grips for left side on for the right side. i do agree about the dpad but after awhile you dont notice it. (Have another version that i got last year that basically the same as this and an eggshell version that i got this year. Though then eggshell dpad feels betterr but i dont like the joystick) i would love if they would combine this controller feafures of fhe eggshell and gen 2, i had a gen 2 nut hqd problems with it qnd sent it back. Eggshell i oike but i hqd get thimbsticks caps to make it feel better whe using it. Main issue for me for this controller was dpad which couldne les stiff andt the right thumbstick could use a better grip.

[@letterm6656]

Does the switch oled do fast charge? I seen a handful of these third party accessories from complete housing to chargers brick made specific for the switch marketed as "fast charge". If I recall, fast charge is borderline meaningless for prior revisions.

So here's the thing, the Stock power supply techincally "Fast Charges", the fast charge claim is nothing special, and honestly I wouldn't recommend using anything outside of the OEM power supply from Nintendo
