Still, it's not like Nintendo's Joy-Cons are known for their reliability and overall this is an excellent option if you want to pay less and do more. That flex, combined with its lightweight, makes the whole thing feel flimsy. There's some flex where the controllers slot onto the holder giving it a tenuous feel. The holder is unusually wide, too, and with the controllers attached it's actually larger than a Pro controller.

Unfortunately, this won't allow you to charge both controllers at the same time each of the controllers needs to be charged separately through their USB-C ports or while attached to the Switch when it's charging (you can leave the controllers attached when docked). The included holder joins the two controllers together to form a single Pro-like controller like Nintendo's Joy-Con Comfort Grip. The Home button can wake the Switch when you're ready to game and you can even change the color of the LED light rings around the thumb sticks. They both have a mappable button on the inside of their grips as well as turbo buttons. Their design makes them awkward to hold as Joy-Cons but it can be done, and each has adjustable rumble and motion controls. However, unlike Hori's controller, the Binbok Joypad can be used off the Switch because each has a built-in battery and Bluetooth. This gives you the comfort and larger controls of the Pro controller while you use the Switch handheld. There are left and right Joy-Con-like controllers that can slot onto the sides of the Switch, similar to Hori's Switch Split Pad Pro. With this third party I discovered this flaw that turned me away.Binbok's Joypad is a combination of Nintendo's Joy-Cons and its wireless Pro Controller. Hence some strictly function only with Wii U Gamepad and Wii U Pro controllers. No dead-zones in analog during testing and worked great for Super Smash Bros.Īgain, ''The Wii U console will only register it as a wii-remote'' b e mindful if you choose to use these controllers on certain video games. Overall, it's not a bad controller it worked great, no input lag, although, the shoulder buttons were clicky and had some misfire registers which happened very rarely.

If it weren't for this flaw, I would purchase more. The controller while it is third party, ''The Wii U console will only register it as a wii-remote'' making it unplayable on a good selection of my games(ex:Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild) which allow only Wii U game pad and pro controller.

It took me awhile to figure out during a 2 day test-run, however I can now pinpoint the issue.

The controller worked great with the exception of this major flaw that turned me away. It's a good budget controller but keep this detail in mind.
