Pros and cons
Pros

- Motion sensing and adjustable vibration add options for games that use those functions.
Cons
- The listing says PC and mobile are not supported, and original Switch support is only planned via a future update.

Customer feedback includes positive reports about the controller's solid feel and value, but experiences with functionality, connectivity and button layout are mixed. Vibration and mouse functionality draw criticism, this matters if adjustable rumble is a priority or you expect a mouse mode, which the product features do not establish. The aggregate rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 373 ratings, but that figure alone cannot explain the individual concerns.
Positive themes
- Customer summary reports a solid feel and good value, controller quality and texture are also described positively.
Negative themes
- Customer summary reports negative reactions to vibration and mouse functionality, including complaints about rumble and missing mouse mode.
Mixed feedback
- Customer summary reports mixed experiences with functionality, connectivity and button layout, despite some finding that it operates like normal Joycons.
