A cheaper alternative to drifting Joy Cons!
My official Nintendo Joy Cons (that came attached to my switch) unfortunately started to drift whilst playing Animal Crossing and if you also play that game, you know how precise you need to stand sometimes to dig that particular hole for a flower or laying a path! I found these after looking at reviews etc (on other websites) and they work as they should! Not as comfortable as the joy con as they stick out at the sides a bit and the plus and minus buttons are a little hard to press but overall they are a cheaper alternative to the official ones you can get and now I can dig my holes in ACNH with no drifting! A side note, the controllers will keep trying to update if you play with them in handheld mode but it never works so just keep cancelling the update option. I also found that if I tried to connect them to my switch after disconnecting the official controllers, my switch would crash and display an error code. To avoid these minor issues, just use the Proslife controllers when you turn on the console, don't update them and they work perfectly! They rumble and they have indicator lights, if you are playing whilst the switch is charging, they do flash, which might annoy some people! (They also flash when charging on the dock when not in use - I just cover my switch to keep it dust free and the flashing is also covered!)

Not perfect but worth the price!
Honestly I quite like this product. It is translucent purple plastic with coloured buttons, so it is totally reminiscent of the consoles of the 90s. Also, the joycons are quite ergonomic and comfortable to use. Plus, just connect them to the switch and they'll work!I have two cons though. First, the switch recognizes they are not an original Nintendo product so pretty much every time I use them I get asked to update joycons several times. Nevertheless, these controllers will not be updated as connection error will always show (I think that protects them from not being able to be used with future switch updates).The second con is the green lights inside each controller. Normally these wouldn't be seen, but because the controllers are transparent this light will shine pretty much all the time, which can become quite uncomfortable after a while.

Nice but description could be better
nice to hold specially on the switch itself they also can be charged while on the switch so no need to charge separately like stated. There not the shade of purple I expected they are much darker n dull as they are see through plus they’ve been reduced in price on the day I received them so 2 things I wasn’t pleased on otherwise nice joy cons whether they can be used in exercise/dance games I’m not sure as I don’t use them like that so can’t comment

Great Cheap alternative
A great alternative to the actual controls. However, you have to charge them separately otherwise they keep flashing once on the switch. If not charged but used on the switch the buttons are slow to respond.

Good :)
They worked with my switch but every time I turn it on it asks you to update them which you can’t do because they’re third party. You can dismiss the notification and use them but it does get annoying. Otherwise they’re great, been using them for months with no issues.

don't bother
Lasted a couple months before they started to drift.Amiibo doesn't work and nor do they update with the console.Rubbish all round really.

Not a bad cost effective alternative
PROS- Cheap.- They work well.CONS- They must be individually charged.- They do not fit into any attachments.

Dodgy
This product seemed like an amazing option to combat the drift I know will come from getting another set of Nintendo joycons, it’s not. The left hand stick didn’t work at all, and the response was intermittent at best
