Improved controllers
One of the better controllers that I've purchased. The battery life is good, but of course that varies with what you're playing. I like the ambient lights that a nice touch. Also, its has good hand grip comfort. I'll probably purchase another later this year to replace an older controller.

Love this rechargeable wireless option for my kids
My daughter loves this remote. So many color options (purple option, black and I saw blue), rechargeable, and the charge holds for hours. We played family feud on new years for several hours. Different color glow for charging and fully charged. Great buy!

Fun controller!
Great product, looks great and connects easily to the switch. Lights are a fun touch and it feels great to hold. No lag or delay that I've noticed thus far (after a few months of gaming with it).
