Anaithsol's Reviews
If you love Nintendo Switch, you’re going to spend a lot of time playing it. The Comfort Grip brings the left and right Joy-Con Controllers together to make one comfortable controller, so you can play as long as you like. Ergonomic, rubber grips will keep your palms happy and your fingers from cramping at home or on-the-go. Simply slide each Joy-Con Controller down the rails until they click, and view the player indicator lights through the front. ProTip: the Comfort Grip stands up on its own and looks great next to your Nintendo Switch Dock.

Fantastic Alternative Option

Verified Purchase:Yes
Let me start off by saying that I originally owned a Switch Pro Controller before purchasing this item. While it was a great product overall, I wasn't completely sold on it due to the hefty price tag attached as it, in my opinion, wasn't a massive improvement over the Joy-Con Grip included free with the Nintendo Switch.
Now, that's not to say that the Joy-Con Grip is without its frustrations as it does introduce a rather cramped feeling during long play sessions due to its design. After researching this particular item via numerous anecdotes by consumers across various websites, I decided to make the purchase... and I couldn't be more glad that I did. This product has completely alleviated that cramped feeling that was all too commonplace with the original Joy-Con Grip. There's not much change in the overall design aside from the backside where all the improvements were made; the new texture delivers a smooth yet hardened rubber feel, and there's a modified ridge instead of the original rounded one right beneath the shoulder buttons that has made a world of difference in how the grip is held to the point where I would dare say it feels more natural than the Pro Controller or other controller options currently available for the Nintendo Switch.
I personally purchased the black variation of this item, so it hasn't delivered any disappointment whatsoever in that regard, but I can confirm that the red variation does not match up to the Neon Red Joy-Cons and that the backside is indeed colored black instead of red. The overall feel and quality of this product is quite a few leagues above that of the original included grip, so it's quite surprising to hear a contrary report from the other review posted here.
With all that said, I absolutely recommend Power A's Comfort Grip to individuals who are content with the original Joy-Con Grip provided by Nintendo as it only delivers improvements on the design. For folks looking for alternatives to the Switch Pro Controller, I strongly recommend giving this item a try as it delivers quite the competent controller experience at a very modest price tag.
