Might have to grab one of those Satisfye Grips.
Glad to see ya here Wood!
Self promo! Go BUY THE LIMITED EDITION BEATEM UPS GRIP!!!
If you are coming to Europe please pick me up one Wood 🤣
Top switch UA-cam 100%
I prefer the Fixture S1 on my standard switch
(S2 for oled)
On my Skull & Co grip i use the triggergrip on the left and the large rounded grip on the right to kinda simulate the Satisfye style.
Very comfy combination.
Same!!
I was thinking of that combo too , one of the reasons I’m leaning more towards the skull & co grip as opposed to the satisfye, another being the ability to dock the switch with the grip still on
Im so glad I found your comment
Going to try this..thanks!!
Your the best at this, you put them all together in one video , and you where quick and fluent , keep it up.
Love this video! I got to meet you at the Team Crispy event in LA some years back and it's been so nice to see your channel grow throughout the years. Please keep up the good work!
I never used any alternatives on my OG Switch, but noticed more weight on the OLED that led to more discomfort. I invested in the Grip Case From Skull & Co and i love it. I alternate from the small ones on the go and switch to the trigger grips when at home. Big improvement for long gaming sessions.
I noticed it when I was playing Splatoon 3 after I upgraded to an OLED! Massive difference after I got the GripCase.
My favorite switch accessory was this rubbery case that had a detachable flap that would cover the screen. It also has some slight grips to it too which was nice. It served as a grip and a super lightweight case that adds no severe bulk to the device.
That is my favorite too! I feel like no one is talking about it. One thing, I’m considering getting the split pad pro, but will it fit on the case? Since there are little prods form the back of the split pad pro
Yes. Got one of these for my oled. Like the case for my switch lite but for my oled. Love it
Cover the screen? Does that fight off against sun glare?

@@TommyThePenguinno there is a legends arecus one coming out too
Video quality = GOALS
Love your content. Thank you for always giving out good info! 😁
Planning to get Switch OLED next month, so this video is quite helpful since I'm also planning on getting some accessories to go with.
I bought these clip-on grips for the joy-cons, which weirdly each side has a slot to store a switch game in. I'm just happy the OLED's joy-cons are the same size as other joy-cons, as they fit well, and the black contrasts nicely with the white joy-cons.
What an amazing quality of a video Kevin.
On Skull & Co’s losable small piece, i actually did lose that locking piece for the top of the grip thanks to a certain 2 year old gamer of mine. I emailed them and while they dont offer that specific replacement, they said if i reordered the whole grip and provided them the order number, they would refund the cost of the order minus shipping. Not a perfect solution but pretty cool of them.
Now that's customer service
@@noclipp valid, just feels a little wasteful to buy a whole new grip for just the one piece lol
Same thing happened to me last week. They told me to make a new order, but it could be ANY order, you didn't have to order the grip again. I order some cheap screen protector and they are sending it to me and refund me the money along with the clip .
I had the satisfye grip for my old switch and loved it. Had ordered the new one but I live in Ireland so due to issues shipping out of HK it would be months by the time I got it so I cancelled the order. I got the hori split pad pro and loved it but didn't like the loss of joycon functions. I just picked up the crystal grip case and love it so far. So handy it can be docked as is too.
My Satisfye grip for my Switch OLED model that I ordered back in early December JUST arrived about 2 weeks ago. Man those shipping delays were a pain in the ass, but the grip is absolutely worth it tho!
I ordered mine 12/20 and still waiting. Just got shipping on the NeoGrip I ordered yesterday. I preferred Satisfye with my Light so when I upgraded to the OLED it was the obvious choice. But I’ll take the product I can get.
Love the video ! And thumbs up making it HDR compliant! Looks great!
There is the OIVO grip and is one of the best grip ever as well, the grip holds 5 cartridge games on the back and it has a stand that you can set the switch in different angles, you should try that grip too there is for regular switch and OLED and is $15.. it's one of the best.
Finally got to pick up the Switch OLED a couple days ago. Ordered the Neogrip because I have the Gripcase for my Pokémon Sword and Shield Switch Lite and really liked the interchangeable grips. Really glad I got the Neogrip as it fits well and feels great. Planning on picking up different colors of the interchangeable grips to match my Joycons.
getting the split pad pro today! can't wait to use them since I play a lot in hand held
Thank you new to Nintendo Switch im excited!
I went with the Hori Split Pad Pro and bought a case made for it and the OLED Switch. Couldn't be happier. Makes the Switch bulky but as a person who 99% of the time uses handheld. Nothing beats this.
Do you have any suggestions for a cover to protect the back of the Switch while using the hori controller?
*This is great, thank you.*
I just received my Skull and Co grips and hands down it is the most comfortable grips I held on the Switch.
I have Satysfe and Hori Split pad pro. I think owning both are beneficial, because Satisfye is a great daily driver, but split pad is great for FPS. Only downside with split pad is remapping the back button being limited to a button on each control pad. (Left control pad can’t use X, Y, A or B that you would typically use, since those buttons are in the right control pad). So I remap my right side to Jump and leave it at that.
I got the binbok joycons on a whim a while back after reading the reviews, and I reaaaly like them. I was very pleasantly surprised with them as far as being third party controllers from a random company I’ve never heard of.
#binbokgang I love it!
I'm really enjoying my binbok controllers they're essentially hori split pad pro controllers that didn't forget to forgo some features. And for the most part those features aren't needed except for gyro I am completely baffled and amazed that the split pad pro does not have at least gyro some games really lean on that for the switch and not having it sucks balls.
Same here. I like that they keep motion controls, have rumble and can be used as a secondary full controller. It actually lead me to play more often in portable mode since I can actually control much better with actual analog sticks.
I love basically everything about my binbok joycons. I got a newer model that doesn't have the shitty dpad however my left thumb stick feels way worse than my right thumb stick... just my experience with them
i just wish deadzones weren't a thing on all third party, otherwise i love mine
I've tried a LOT of the options and my favorite for comfort is definitely the Satisfye grip though for some games like Smash Bros where you want some slightly beefier joysticks and buttons the Bin Bok controllers feel a lot more ergonomic than the Hori split pad pro.
have you fixed the deadzone on the binboks?
The video that I need!
It depends entirely on what game you are playing and how you like to play.
I play all Indies in Table Top model with joycons.
I play all Fighting games with a Pro controller.
When docked I prefer to play with Grip or pro controller.
If I play portable shooters or platformers I use my pro controller screen holder.
Portable if playing RPG's I use my satisfy grip.
The Hori is the best! Great grip and good buttons & sticks. No history of stick drift. Otherwise I'd choose the Skull Crystal grip as it's officially dockable. It can also be used with a mountable battery like the Gulikit. These are my recommendations.
Background looks great
Skull n co thumb grips and grip case on the lite is so damn perfect.
I absolutely loved the hori split pad pro, super comfortable, but they kept breaking on me after a month or two without being abused at all. I've been using skull & co grips for two years now and they're great, really help with wrist pain I get when playing laying down in bed
I got the red split pad pro for Christmas and it's soooooo comfy and I can never see myself going back to regular joycons
I use the Fixture S1 and am really happy with it since I get to use the Pro controller with it
I think I’ll give one of those split game pads a shot. It’s a shame that there’s no official split Pro controller. It’s a damn great controller. Great video.
Try the Fixture S2 for oled, S1 for standard switch
@@mikeuk666 i have a Chinese knockoff that I got for a couple bucks off AliExpress, doesn’t work properly anymore. Sadly the fixture’s delivery to my country is just insane.
I've used my normal joycons for probably less than 20 hours and I've had my Switch since I think 2018. For handheld mode I literally only use the Hori Split Pad, its so much more comfortable and I don't even care about rumble.
Binbok and skullco gripcase are my choices
When you're frozen with indecision, having never used a grip, so you just continue with a bare switch.
I've had my binboks for 6 months now and they have been solid no drift, recommend removing the stickers under the d pad it makes a world of difference
have you fixed the deadzone?
gotta love the hdr
Answered my questions
Docking the Skull n Co case also blocks the USB ports on the side (or at least the larger grips do). I remove the joycon to remove the switch from this case as I don't want to break the little catch.
Skull n Co is my favorite
Man if only satisfye made a dockable grip. It would be so great. I had to go with the skull and co neo though about half the price and potentially dockable was too good to pass up.
Worth noting- Soon Hori is releasing an accessory that will let you use the split pad pro like a pro controller, unattached to the system. They will also be optionally bundling with future versions of the split pad pro.
They released it. Sadly, it’s wired. They should’ve made some kind of wireless thing
I went Hori split pad for most of the gaming at home and the skull and co grip case for when I take the switch out of the house. I have the white oled and wanted and option that could be removed all the time without worrying about scratching the joy cons
You should review the ovio switch grip I find it in Amazon and they have a pled version also
When I first got my oled I didn’t have a satisfy for it. I ordered one but it was back ordered for 2 months. I went and got the split pad pro and loved them! Still use my satisfy preferably tho
I use Satisfye grips for my Lite. They became available in the UK months ago.
I ended up having to get a grip. I bought the Binbocks and absolutely love them. They make the switch so comfortable to me. However when in sleep mode they drain my battery. On my Oled it'll go from 80% to 35% after a couple hours in rest mode.
I know it's not an issue with my Switch, because it does the same thing to my friends
You forgot to mention that the binbox or Nyxi 3rd party joycons can act as a wireless pro controller outside of handheld mode for tabletop or docked mode , that why i picked them over the Hori split pad pro (not everyone can afford both a pro controller and joycons )with the BinBox and Nyxi you get 2 for the price of 1
I'm just waiting for the Fixture S2 to finish production. Got an email a few weeks ago saying they started manufacturing it!
Great news
Holy HDR Batman!
I love my split pad pro and I really wish I bought the binbok controllers instead. It really makes use of the switch as a dockable console
Sweet, jacket! Very military techwear-ish.
If you want to spend the money, get the grip, the boxy pixel aluminum joy con with the d pad, and the zagg screen protector (oled version only available at best buy). You have the ultimate handheld experience this way. Oh and get the case bundle with the satisfye grip which is supposedly the best protective case you can get. Like I said, if you want to spend the money.
Both are great. But I like my Binboks soooo much more. I just bought another set since they have a transparent version now.
They also have them in white!
And yet many people love it as it is.
Kevin can you do a video of zengrip pro & controller, what is the best option to get?
I experimented with the grips on the Skull and Co and noticed you can emulate the Satisfye grip by using the trigger group on the left side, and the larger rounded grip on the right side. Definitely comfortable!
Dude, this is so awesome! My NeoGrip arrived some days ago and I gave it a shot. Works like a charm!
I use the pro controller with a mount that holds the switch above the controller. This to me is by far the most comfortable and accurate way to play.
Which mount do you use? I've been considering purchasing one of these as well.
That's the Fixture S1 (S2 fits oled model)
@@mikeuk666 I wanted to get the fixture but at the time they only had the one for the non oled model.
What do you use for games that require using joycon and make use of motion control? Binbok? Nyxi? Or just the traditional joycon.
So I’m getting a Switch OLED on Sunday, but my new Satisfye grip doesn’t come until the beginning of March. Will the OLED fit in my current Zen Grip?
I bought the DOBE controller/ grip, it's actually better than everything you showed here, plus it has motion control, mapping back buttons, and rumble
I've been using the skull and co grip case and it's amazing and I feel very safe about my switch not breaking if we're to drop it
Does it have the crystal case at the back? Or just grips
The locking mechanism on the grip is for when using the original non oled switch.
The other aliexpress ones are worth trying. The mobapad joycons. Amazing buttons and sticks miles better than binboc or hori but unfortunately the back button acts like a macro instead of a reassign and it turns on Turbo if pressed too quickly. These would be perfect if it wasn't for that.
how is the mobapad deadzone? if it's free of deadzone, that's an instant buy. currently have binbok and hori's right now to try out, but deadzone seems to exist on all third party options
Loved The Hori split pad pro has great thumbsticks, dpad and buttons including the triggers, I unfortunately had to return mine because of the way the plastic met up on the side seam, it was super sharp like glass. anyone else have this problem? Was debating picking up a new set. also have the skull and co neo grip super comfortable got that with some thumbstick grips from them love the concave ones.
If the satisfye came with a grip case style I’d buy it but I need something with protection…
Skull & Co claim that the grip case is dockable... which is somewhat true, but it feels a little forced into the dock and flexes the top
My right binbok pad is not clipping correctly to the switch, not being recognized as attached to the unit. The result is that the switch doesn't recognize both side at the same time because the left one is recognized as attached but the right as a wireless controller.
Just ordered the new splatoon neogrip.I believe they made it slimmer to dock more easily
I litterally only use the hori pad controller for 3 months now and this is the best feeling controller for my switch more then the pro controller I don't even care it has doesn't have rumble
Can you still use the grip when the joycon are removed? Im a college student and change constantly between table top, hand held and docked. Wanting to know if the main body of the switch will still be held in place with out of the joycon as removing the grip would get annoying
EVERYBODY LISTEN UP. The best grip for the oled switch is the OVIO grip on Amazon. Holds 5 switch cartridges and has an awesome stand that’s durable and can help playing in handheld mode. Has the same hand kick out so the hands are way more comfortable than skull and co. And I know I have both. People it’s only 16 bucks on Amazon…
You’re welcome✌🏼
That's what I said too, the grip is amazing, I had the skull and Co and it was fine but man the OIVO grip is a blast!
Great video. What is the name of the game shown in the video?
Are you going to cover the binbok slim?
any idea of the hori attachment for the split pad pro will release separate. so far i have only seen the bundle. the hori split pads + the attachment. I already have the split pads, so i rather just get the attachment.
I honestly just use silicone covers for the joy cons and switch whenever I play handheld. Can’t really find replacements though
Satisfye only way to play switch lite!
Loving the clear ice edition on my Pokemon edition
As someone who has tried pretty much every option out there, my top 3 choices are: #1 Fixture S1 mount for the Switch pro controller. Unfortunately the S2 hasn't come out for the Oled yet, but it's fantastic for the older switch versions. #2 The Hori split pad pro and finally #3 the Satisfy grip Right now I go between the Hori S.P.P. and Satisfy grip pending on which game I'm playing. When Fixture finally releases the S2 for the Switch Oled, that's definitely going to be my main way of playing because there's nothing like playing on your Nintendo pro controller anywhere
Doest the fixture get heavy?
@zurd mannakella Not really. You can position it to where the weight is counterbalanced and where it is most comfortable for you. Just got the S2 myself. Watch some UA-cam videos and give it a shot if you're interested. You can always get a refund if you don't like it. I'd recommend getting it from Amazon. Happy gaming!
Split pad pro are awesome
Please, make a video about the IINE joycons, they're close to the binbok ones, but it not the same, is hard to find full reviews about them, specially when there is two diffent types, the normal ones and the Elite ones, so, if you could.
Which joy cons that are more efficient to the battery kevin?
Ironically, I've used both joy in replacement's and the hori is way less comfortable and gives me hand cramps because of its flat back while the binbok has actual grips that are there to hold on to and feel like a real controller.
My favourite accessory has to be my bin bok joycons
My favorite is currently the MobaPad M6. They look very similar to the Hori Split Pad Pros, but they have gyro controls and rumble. It has some shortcomings, but it does have awesome sticks and mechanical buttons.
What about the OIVO Grip? I used one for my regular Switch and Loved it
The perfect grip mate.
I would get the Satisfye grip if only they had a black option. The white just clashes with different joycon colors :/
I've been interested in the binbok ones but I also keep hearing about quality control issues with them, like someone had theirs come with a sticker just, like, underneath the dpad? And other issues like buttons being messed up and things like that.
At what point do you take screen protector off and enjoy the “pristine” screen?
Does the OLED Satisfye grip still leave rubber marks on the back of the tablet?
Can u compare the moba pad pro? It looks like a more advanced version of the split pad pro. We have extremely similar tastes, so I really want ur take
The oivo grip is pretty nice and has an oled model available now in different colourways. Not sure how available it is to you guys in the states though
I wish for a Right side joycon with the stock above the buttons...just like the left joycon
I bought the Binboks and they're 👌.
Any suggestions to protect the back of the Switch which works with the binbok attached?
Not a single vid with Kevin not wearing his hat 😂
what is the name of the game you're playing on this video?, it looks like cyber shadow
I want to try the Binbok but afraid of the dead zones so I’m leaning towards the satesfy grip
Just got the oled it's great wish I got a switch years ago but I'm an xbox gamer lol
Thoughts on the satisfye ronin?
I just bought the skull and Co
