    Vibration motor issues - 3:05
    Final thoughts - 4:07
    Overall, if you're looking for a cheap Nintendo switch pro controller and you're ok with some minor quirks, then this might just be the controller you're after. This fake Pro controller functions almost identically to my real Nintendo switch pro controller, and I was able to easily connect it to my Switch and start playing with it.
    This is likely the best fake pro controller you will be able to find - it's evident that it is made using almost identical parts and assembly processes to the real Nintendo switch pro controllers (it looks and feels identical to my real Pro Controller) and considering it is so much cheaper than the real pro controller, you can't really go wrong.
    Be aware, however, that it is clear that the quality control of these fake switch pro controllers is not very good, so you do run the risk of receiving a unit with some issues, which you may be able to resolve via Aliexpress.
    Overall, I'm super impressed with this fake Nintendo Switch Pro Controller! Thanks for watching!

    I don't know if you can really call something a review when you're taking it at face value. You didn't test NFC. You didn't tell us about the analogue stick dead zones. What's the battery life like? Does it charge quickly? How is the Bluetooth range? You literally gave no tangible information for us to consider purchasing. This is legit an unboxing video, not a review.

    • @I_THE_I
      @I_THE_I 4 роки тому +7

      Hmm true

    • @itsMKiAM
      @itsMKiAM 4 роки тому +21

      The fake pro controllers don't have NFC, the battery lasts anywhere from 15-20 hours in my experience with them. I simply bought the authentic pro controller when my left shoulder button wouldn't work anymore. (Due to pinched ribbon cable.) It charges quite quickly, but the cable they add with the controller is not very fast. I'd recommend taking the USB-C cable (when you're not using docked), buy a $5 "dock extender" and use your controller like that to play while charging. Gyro feels very good and intuitive, and the rumble is just had to turn off for Smash, but played a lot of Smash with it. (left shoulder button went out second day when playing Fortnite.)
      My overall experience is a [7/10], merely for the fact the copying of the design and feel (not as cushy, though) was pretty great. The quality is definitely on the cheap side, but if you're desperate for a pro controller, or just really don't have the money to spend (like I was), these will be so worth the money.
      **Make sure to get a warranty, and don't let them tell you "it's not covered" if it's a third-party company, and they say they can't replace it.

    So, do pro controllers not calibrate in general? Or is it because they're knock offs?
