I actually picked up the Split Pad Pro a few months ago. For the most part, I was pleased with how it functioned, but there are some significant trade-offs as well. Here's a complete list of the (potential) pros and cons (I say "potential", depending on whether or not any of these factors actually matter to you)... Pros - Undoubtedly more comfortable. I found that I could play games almost indefinitely without any cramping whatsoever. - Buying the Split Pad Pro, in its entirety, costs less than a single Joy-Con. - Possesses a proper D-Pad (personally, I've never found the left Joy-Con button setup to be a detriment to my gameplay, but obviously, I'm not most other people). - Possesses the extra back buttons and the Turbo Function (neither of these I felt a particular need to use, but again, different strokes for different folks) Cons (all of these stem from the fact that the Split Pad Pro is intended only as a straight-up, bare bones controller, without any bells and whistles, so here's what's missing) - No rumble feature (I have one friend who wouldn't miss this at all, but sometimes, the Rumble feature can be essential, depending on what games you play) - No motion controls. Granted, there are only a handful of Switch games that actually utilize this function properly. But if you like your motion controls in games like Splatoon 2, Resident Evil: Revelations, or even Overwatch, you may find this setup lacking. Of course, you can always combat this problem by simply replacing the right side of the Split Pad Pro with a standard Joy-Con, but it does kind of defeat the purpose of a more comfortable handheld experience. - No internal batteries. This means that not only does the Switch Pad Pro not function when it isn't hooked up to a Switch, but It requires power from the system to work, draining the Switch's already questionable battery life that much more. - Portability becomes an issue. While the Split Pad Pro is indeed more comfortable to hold, when it's hooked up, the Switch becomes so much bulkier as to almost defeat the claim of calling it a handheld system*. Also, expect to have a hard time, finding a Switch case that can accommodate it, even when disassembled. So far, I've only found one case that I was able to jury-rig into fitting the controllers, in ANY way comfortably. (*Also, When the Split Pad Pro is hooked up, the Switch becomes so bulky and off-balance that the kick stand has absolutely no hope of holding it up.) Bottom line, whether or not the Split Pad Pro is worth your money will depend entirely on how much you'll appreciate what it adds and how much you'll miss what it takes away. That's a question each individual person can only answer themselves. I'm just providing everyone with the facts. Hope this was helpful. ^_^
@@zarbaboiarchive1680 not a primary console player, so im more used to keyboard and mouse. The only thing closest to the accuracy of a mouse is gyro, so no, I can't live without gyro.
I literally bought my hori split pad pro on Friday night , then to see you review them a few days later is pretty funny to me. What a coincidence though. I do prefer them over the joy cons but i wish they had a rumble feature.
A convert! Yeah, I love the Split Pad Pro. It does lack motion but I tend to not play any motion-heavy games, particularly in unlocked mode, so this doesn't bother me in the slightest.
Have these and they are great, try the Binbok though, they are awesome. Got the slimmer ones and playing wirelessly with the split controller is amazing.
Great job bro.. I did buy it but sold it again just wasn't my style, I prefer the satisfye grip with the hori Dpad joycon...cheers George here from Australia 👍🏾
The binbok joycons are really awsome also, basically the same thing but has built in Bluetooth, motion controls, and can wake up the switch while not attacted to the switch
@@partymantis3421 Hori accessories are just licensed by Nintendo, which makes them pricier. They are not made by Nintendo. To be fair, Hori has some decent history and knowledge, so it's suprising how their product is doing worse than the competition. But that's probably just because the Hori Split Pad was unique when it came out and other companies used that and improved on it.
Love these controllers. Got it the momment they came out. Only thing i miss is the rumbling when fishing on stadew valley, lther than that.... its amazing
I have these (though mine are the red ones) and I love them. My only complaint is that there is no gyro controls. Means I have to swap them out when playing games like BOTW during gyro control shrine sections. It would be nice if they were wireless and the home button woke it up. But honestly, I don't really care that much about that. Just the gyro would be all I'd want for this to be ideal in my eyes. Not to say that you're points about the cheap feeling shell, sticks and buttons aren't valid, because they absolutely are. But it just feel soooooo much better to hold than the tiny cramp inducing joycons. Though I don't have the issue with its width that you do. I have my arms by my side when sat up just fine. If anything, I find it more comfortable than having my hands together on a standard controller.
To be fair regarding the gyro control shrines in BotW how would you even do them in portable mode? you wouldn't be able to see the screen waving it around
@@HeyItsRicki85 I always play in portable mode. Its not that difficult to do the gyro stuff, but it can take a few tries to line it up right when you're doing something fast.
These are pretty much permanently on my Switch except when I take it out of the house, since I don't have a case that can fit them. They also can take a beating; my son had dropped the Switch several times, enough to make the controllers pop off. I was able to repair a set a few times before it couldn't be revived, so I just bought another pair and I have mismatched Joy-cons now. I think it's good for kids because in general it's easier to hold onto it while carry it around, and there's not as much inside to break as a regular Joy-con. The D=pad and the grip are my favorite features of course, but I agree I'd like the D-pad in the place of the left thumbstick.
I think a Turbo button is only useful in like side scrolling shooters... I feel like I used a turbo for one of the megaman games as a kid, but that's probably it.
@Nobody comments are not funny you troglodyte Man they just wants a more ergonomic switch in a new revision, a lot of people do. If you wanna pretend this random person you replied to is the same person who will complain about portability right afterwards, thats a horrible argument. Another horrible argument is telling people to buy a seperate product if they just have constructive hopes for what they personally want to see with the next Switch revision. As if the Switch is a perfect machine that people could never ask more from 4 years after it came out. Personally, I think having a model that is small like the lite, and another one thats feature-rich and more comfortable like the OLED model, makes some sense for two different use-cases.
@@camilofuentes7056 I mean I can't speak for everyone, but I think it's alright being disappointed and constructive about what you wanted in something, while also simultaneously making the best of it and doing your best to enjoy it anyway
@@oceanman4843 It seems that way yeah, hopefully the frame doesn't have some minor alteration that interferes with the grip. Either way though, I already own the grip, most don't. The grip also lacks rumble, which I quite enjoy
The controller you described at the end sounds like one of those Switch Pro controller mounts. They cost about $15 on amazon and you just use the switch pro controller and then u mount the switch on top of it basically. Similar to ones people use to mount there PS4/Xbox controllers to a cellphone.
Only downside to the Hori split pads is that they lack a battery in the controllers and you in turn have to lose battery life to the switch overall. Give it a try. The switch will last longer with joycons versus split pads. But they are comfortable
I had these like since they came out years ago but yeah I'm glad you figured out what made me feel weird when holding. It's that digging your fingers into the back thing BUT you figured out the answer! you need a 'pole' at the bottom, thank you! You didn't mention the lack of rumble though xD. (but you probably thought of it as assumed since no third party has it) also it doesn't fit in a carry case :( so strangely that makes me want to keep it at home BUT who plays their switch in handheld mode at home??
I bought these from Wal-Mart for apex legends and fortnite since it had back buttons, but so honestly dissappointed how you can't map the left back button to the A button. The left back button can only be mapped to the buttons on the left joy con and the right back button can only be mapped to the right joy con. I returned them as soon as I could
I didn’t like these because they didn’t have rumble. I know many competitive players will remove the rumble for a lighter controller but for what I like I want the feedback just because. I opted for the binbok which aren’t as nice in some ways but have rumble and motion. The full sticks and buttons are much more comfortable with the ergonomic grip on these pro controller options
Hey nihongo, I want to know what you think of the Hori Real Arcade Pro N. It doesn’t have that much reviews, and I want to see someone like you review it! ^_^
Would had been a great controller if it had motion. Without motion the controller is too limiting. Other unlicensed 3rd party controllers similar to this has wireless (with grip), motion and rumble and they cost about the same. However the build quality isn't as good as Hori Split Pad Pro
I have binbok joycons and am pretty happy with them. They are super comfortable but also work wirelessly and have rumble and motion controls. And they look nice aesthetically too. Hori not having wireless feature was a dealbreaker for me.
Nihongo, can you confirm if the split pad wobbles while slotted in? There's a very slight wobble on joycons in the rail that has a chance of getting worse over time. Would you say this has better rails to slot in?
It doesnt wobble, unlike the joycons. Now the bad thing is, you know that weird stand on the back of the split pad? This thing's so tightly fit on the switch rails that it scratched the back of my switch by that protruding thing on the split pad.
They only work in hand held mode as they do not have battery's or wireless chip in them. If it wasn't for the split pad pro Binbok wouldn't have made their knock off.
Ok listen one thing to know, they have an annoying lil tab on the back so you aren't going to be able to use your case. Like if you have the flip cover or anything. Also they do not fit in the travel cases except the big lunchbox. They have no rumble, so games that use it for item finding and other indication purposes are boned.
Was your the daemon x edition? I bought those when they first released and had problems with the sticks after a while. Bought the newer red ones and compared internals. They are the same ones. So hopefully no more issues. I have 3 pair in total. 2 Daemon x machina editions and 1 newer red one.
I recently bought a Switch Lite / Pro controller mount by OIVO. It looks a bit ridiculous at first glance, and it is a bit heavy at first, but it's incredibly comfortable. Having a real controller with the lite mounted on top is so much better for my hands and neck. It's perfect for Monster Hunter Rise. Not really portable at that point anymore, though ;)
I wonder how it holds up with platformers such as Rockman 11 or Sonic Mania. Got used to the original D-PAD's quirks by now but I'd never say it's anywhere near as good as Nintendo's classic D-PADs or even Sony's.
Too expensive for what it is really (or rather what they are lacking compared to some other 3rd party pad pro that are similar to it) I get it when it was released in the beginning when there nothing like it at 1st but now there are other options with more features and with much less cost.
Yes, since Switch OLED uses the same rails as the regular switch. So any joycon like accessories will fit. The ones that might have an issue fitting are the grip cases since the OLED switch itself is slightly longer by a few mm.
Dualsense controller : this is not a dpad. ;) i never used my Switch with the jcs attached. At home i used the pro controller. And on the Go mostly too.
@@VxHokage007 tbh its not the best but everything else is fantastic. they are so much more ergonomic than regular joycon it makes me want to play everythin handheld now. the sticks are like 1000% better than tiny joycon ones. rumble, gyro, works detatched from the system, sexy leds. they are awesome and what the joycon should have been since launch. they will hopefully just improve on the d-pad in the future.
SOOO MUCH BETTER... I use the S.P.P for compact carrying to work and such.. But the DOBE controller grip is amazing and much more convenient also provides all functions outside of Amiibo support
Hori Split Pad are great controllers ! Sadly, they do not support gyroscope... and I think Gyro is a mandatory feature for FPS... :( I can't play games like Borderlands or DOOM Eternal without Gyroscope... Switch has a gyroscope built-in but developers needs to use it instead of the Joy-Con's gyro... but no one is doing it.
Dude i been telling you to buy these for years. This is just A new model. The original wher the " Deamon X Machina" Split pad pro. I preordered them when they where announced back a few years ago. And i don't play my switch without it
@@davidslevs For old games like Legend of Zelda: Skyward sword. Do you think those devs will get any money from this mediocre "remaster". They didn't even gave the option to play games you already own in the new system.
Don't buy this. Had one "which was actually fantastic" until it broke within a year. I take care of my things, and it still broke and no longer connects to the Switch.

Surprised you only just now started using these. They made quite the splash when they were announced a few years ago.
Yeah I always thought it was too bulky for the train but now that we’re all at home and not going anywhere suddenly it’s more appealing lol
Man I hope split pad pro can be used in docked mode. Binbok is good but split pad pro have better d pad
They only work in hand held mode as they do not have battery's or wireless chip in them. If it wasn't for the split pad pro Binbok wouldn't have made their knock off.
The biggest down downs side to these controllers are
1 not ver portable
2 makes the switch screen even look smaller
eversince I found a suitable case for the split pad pro I never used my joycon when I go out..hehehe
Name of the case?
Lucky Fox split pad pro case
Ok listen one thing to know, they have an annoying lil tab on the back so you aren't going to be able to use your case. Like if you have the flip cover or anything. Also they do not fit in the travel cases except the big lunchbox. They have no rumble, so games that use it for item finding and other indication purposes are boned.
I like these a lot but the analog sticks are way too big, they're hard to use when you want to make fast movements
I absolutely love mine, though after more than a year of having it, my poor ZR died out 😔
Good to know
Was your the daemon x edition? I bought those when they first released and had problems with the sticks after a while. Bought the newer red ones and compared internals. They are the same ones. So hopefully no more issues. I have 3 pair in total. 2 Daemon x machina editions and 1 newer red one.
I love these things only problems i have is that dont work wirelessly and drain the battery like crazy

MegaMan* 😂
Okay, now I have to buy one to find out if my fingers are in fact that short!
I have been using those for a month it's great!
I waited until a sale and used some store credits and picked one up for $35. Well worth it.
Was playing mine today and realized it's probably about the size of the Steam Deck
Too expensive for what it is really (or rather what they are lacking compared to some other 3rd party pad pro that are similar to it) I get it when it was released in the beginning when there nothing like it at 1st but now there are other options with more features and with much less cost.
I feel like the satisfy grip for the switch is the most comfortable option
Satisfy grip is perfect. Plus you still get rumble and motion control.
I wonder if it would work with the OG hori d-pad though?
if it had a screen in the middle it would be a sega saturn controller
Have anyone mod these to have every future as a nintendo official joycon?
I played botw with it and it worked amazingly, i just didn’t do anything with gyro..
What is up with people *suddenly* getting into the Split Pad Pro? Was there a boom recently, or something?
Getting more known
Will it fit the new switch oled?
Yes, since Switch OLED uses the same rails as the regular switch. So any joycon like accessories will fit. The ones that might have an issue fitting are the grip cases since the OLED switch itself is slightly longer by a few mm.
I want someone to put real joycon internals in these like the gamecube joycons.
Nice controller but wish it can also work on the phone too...
Goodbye Joycons hello no joycon drift

17:33- LOL
I think I found a controller to make my switch comfortable

how to turn your nintendo switch into an atari lynx....just joking this is the most comfortable solution to play handheld mode
If hori releasesd a battery power controller. Nintendo would be losing so much money.
Why the music in the background not good rather just listen to you rather than hear music that why I clicked on the video to see review

Dude i been telling you to buy these for years. This is just A new model. The original wher the " Deamon X Machina" Split pad pro.

And i don't play my switch without it
Cooooool

They didn't even gave the option to play games you already own in the new system.

Don't buy this. Had one "which was actually fantastic" until it broke within a year. I take care of my things, and it still broke and no longer connects to the Switch.
