Hycarus Nintendo Switch Controller, Built-in Gyro Sensor and Turbo Functions for Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, Wireless Bluetooth Gamer's Choice for Nintendo Switch Motion Control

Great controller overall. I felt the Dpad worked reasonably but the rapid fire mode works great and the rumble is really strong. Pairing is easy enough and the Analogue works well.The controller is fully wireless and easy enough to sync. It can't wait your Nintendo switch. Overall, well worth the money! It's really comfortable to hold and a decent weight!

A decent quality controller that seems to be reasonably well madeIt’s comfortable to hold and easy to useIt’s got everything that you need to enjoy your games and it’s reasonably priced

Everything worked fine test the controller first if everything is working correctly don't calibrate it, you can go to calibrate it and if it seems the left stick has any issue like mine does (upper left lower left position on the left stick appears to have a dead spot, when rotating the stick in circle, the stick isn't registering it going fully to the edge) , in games with just up down left right movements like ssbu it doesn't impede in any way, in games like zelda where you can walk diagonally pushing the stick in the direction mentioned above, will result in walking rather than running, and doesn't dodge correctly, there may be an update from hycarus to sort this but not tried yet, the update controller settings on the switch only update official Nintendo joycons and Pro controllers you will need a laptop or desktop to update after market ones, battery life is 2.5/3.5 hours but you can plug it into a wall socket to charge it while playing if you want just don't plug it into the Dock as it will charge but can't be used at the same time for some reason, feels alright in the hands button clicks are fine no delay noticed. I now use an 8bitdo USB Bluetooth adapter and usb-c to usb-a cable in tabletop mode and use my ps4 controller, in Dock mode I just plug the 8bitdo into the Dock the cable isn't needed in Dock mode.

We've gone through ~6 different makes of Bluetooth controller for use on the PC. This is one of the keepers. It's fairly lightweight (a lot lighter than the official Xbox controllers), rechargable and works reliably. The only thing you have to get used to is that the buttons are labelled "wrong" for PC games.

Great and easy to use. Favourite for the kids and they fight over it.

This controller, for the price, is excellent value for money. It works well with the Nintendo Switch and, in addition, can be used with Windows PCs with Bluetooth or Android phones.The grip and design feels good...almost like a PlayStation / Xbox hybrid. The fact that it lights up makes it even more unique.I've dropped 1 star purely because it uses the older micro usb connection to charge it. The Switch usually has usb-c connectors, which are generally faster. It means having to have another cable plugged in (the official controller uses usb-c).All-in-all, I can definitely recommend this as a cheap alternative to the official controller.

Bright design impressive handling

The Hycarus Nintendo Switch Controller is a cheaper option than the Official Pro Controller for Switch at nearly half the price but this does come with a few compromises.While the Pro controller is built by Nintendo to work specifically with the Switch and connects pretty easily, I found that the Hycarus took a little extra work and doesn't feel as well made. Out of the box you get the controller, a USB lead to recharge it and a set of instructions. The controller had a little power but needed fully charging first. Once charged the instructions say to pair using the Home and Y buttons, which worked, unlike just the Home button on the Pro. It remembered the pairing after the console was switched off and on, too, which is a good sign. I also tried pairing this with my Android tablet and it worked well using Bluetooth, so this is another useful feature should you want to have a Switch type controller on Android for some reason (button placement on Nintendo controllers are different to the norm, so it won't be as useful as an Xbox controller).The main issues come down to build quality. the D-Pad feels good and I like the turbo button, always a useful feature. The lighting system is good and I appreciate the buttons lighting, but the whole thing is let down a bit by the Analog sticks. The sticks feel as if they have a lack of response when compared to the Pro controller. They occasionally have drift issues and for those needing precision this is not really suitable. However, it's still useful for a second, cheaper, controller, possibly for a younger player. The only issue with this is that I'm not sure how robust this is.For the money, it's unsurprising that this controller has compromises and it's fine for casual gamers, hence the 3 star score. It's pretty good as a second (or third) controller for when you need to play couch multiplayer. Just make sure you know what you're getting when you buy.
