Repost. Was able to get one. Couldn't pair w/my console. Exchanged it and same issue. Followed all instructions. Turns out I had to restart my switch (NOT sleep, but restart) and it connected. Decent 4th player controller.

I picked one up last week for this price. Good deal for an entry level wireless controller. It doesn't rumble or support Amibos, but functions like a normal controller.

These work fine but feel unbelievably cheap. I personally wouldn't buy one again, but if you're looking for the cheapest thing to do the job as say party controllers, they work just fine

Absolute garbage. For me the manufacturer would have to write me a check and send with the controller for me to even consider it. Even then I'd be hesitant.

Horrible deal. I sold mine for $10 on offer up and it was the Zelda edition.

Heads up, in my experience with Xbox, it is best to go with the original controllers. I tried many brands including Power A.They are all horrible. It is truly amazing, all of them. Spend money the right way and get the original controllers.

I got two yesterday for $15 each.

Not sure where all the negativity for these is coming from. I've been using one that I got used for a year and it's been pretty decent.

My only complaint is that it will stay on and drain the batteries if you forget to put your switch to sleep.

Were these available for the same deal in different colors or just the black/red?

Cheaply made indeed, however their replacement/exchange program is great. With their 2yr warranty, they sent me a brand new controller for FREE. And you don't need to send the broken controller back, they want you to just keep it.

Edit: Great controller for your guests for playing Smash (no way I'm letting them use my pro controller).
