DISCOUNT CODE IN THE DESCRIPTION. I have high hopes for these as I’ve used my white versions for months and they haven’t missed a beat.

I just received mine (milk white version). Very solid joycons. Very light imho, and I was expecting a little bit more heft but that’s a personal preference. One thing I have to say though is that the back ML/MR buttons may not have been quality control tested properly because the buttons recessed way too much into the shell, and the shell can be really sharp when you course your finger on pressing them down and glide your finger across the shell. Had to take them apart and superglue a credit card cutout shiv on the resisting wall for the back buttons to adjust the buttons correctly, and I used a nail filing pad to smooth the edges around the shell where the buttons are to make pressing them feel comfortable. After that adjustment they felt perfect. No regrets on the purchase.

THANK YOU! The instructions don't specify that you need to release the T button to implement the change to the RGB lighting. That aside, these are perfect for handheld play! I have my Pro Controller for docked mode, and these feel just as comfortable in the hand.

I got the Hyperion today. I will count up the pros and the contras: + No noticeable deadzones on both analog sticks + Vibration can be adjusted + RGB lights can be adjusted + Shoulder buttons are like BUTTER. You gotta love the smooth press on ZL or ZR + Mappable buttons on the backside + Turbo buttons - No HD rumble - No NFC reader - Turbo functions and the mappable buttons only work for each joycon. You can't map the B button on the left mappable button for example. - It barely fits in the original Nintendo Switch docking station, so a third party docking station may be recommended, but not necessary. You can put the console with the Hyperion into the station, but eh...it doesn't slide very smoothly into the station. I know some points are surely mentioned in the video. Just pointing out the sweet and also a few bitter points. I definitely recommend them to everyone. 🙂

Used the discount code along with points for signing up! Can't wait to try the Hyperion soon and compare it to my Binbox joycons that I have owned for a while. :)

It's a shame nintendo won't do something like this officially. Tbh nintendo not doing cool stuff like this is keeping the switch from being better than it already is.

I just got mine today and so far I have been quite happy with them. They work great, are super comfortable and apart from one game deciding to screw up the calibration (I might have had the stick slightly off center when I started the game) I haven't had any major issues. Only small nitpick is that the RGB on my units are quite different when it comes to intensity. My left joycon is quite dull where as the right one is bright and pleasing. But if I knew how I'd probably just turn off the LEDs completely. I find it a bit distracting and anything to save on battery life.

I've been looking at getting something like this. The small joycons make my hands cramp trying to hold the switch. One thing I find funny about trying to order these. Using the discount code you provide actually costs more in the end. They are 52 dollars, and any order over 50 shipping is free. The 10% off makes it 48, but then they charge 10 dollars for shipping....So with the coupon code it actually costs 6 dollars more than just buying it outright...

I bought these joycons 2 weeks ago from amazon. At first I had a few problems with the center piece; one of the rails was too tight and I couldn't insert the left joycon. No big problem, i filed down the rail and the problem was solved. I mapped the button, after a long session of playing I go to sleep. The next day the buttons were unmaped, it happened every single time I left the switch docked. I changed the colors to purple. Every time I docked the switch and left the joycons recharge, the color went back to default. After A few days both joycons started to ignore inputs of the thumbsticks. That's something I couldn't ignore, i had enough. I wrote these and many other problems with the joycons I had, asking for a change. They deleted the entire product from amazon lol... aside from the problems I had, they were great, loved the shape, very comfortable, loved the thumbsticks, loved the colors (when they worked), loved the buttons you could map, loved the fact you could play both in portable and docked, i loved many things about the joycons, but damn the problems I had sucked.

I have the binbok one piece, identical to these, the sticks feel incredible and the buttons are nice, tactile with a bit of mush on the triggers. love this, may get these joycons for more portable usage

I was doing so much research looking for alternative controllers found your video use the discount and now we wait thank you so much for this video it was really helpful

I'd like to see a comparison between these and the newer transparent binbok joycons to see if one is better

I bought this stick after I saw this video, and I love it. It feels kinda cheap and light but it works fantastic. Love it

Just bought the Hyperion , can’t wait to have and test it !!!

Another competitor of iine and binbok, so called officially licensed Hori still can't do wireless.

Looks very similar to the NexiGo brands… Really curious about how the quality of that material compares now 👀

I just ordered one this looks super nice

Cool to have better essentially featured joycons that are better and cheaper.

I was about to not even watch the video because these joy cons looked so good

Thank you for the great detailed review. I just ordered this for my son

Nice review, ordered using your code! 🎉 Thanks!

Great and in-depth review ! Used your code , can’t wait to get these bad boys ✌️ thanks for you good work pal !

Just seen a few reviews all pretty good so just ordered mine

I ordered mine in white on the 6th. Pre-order is supposed to ship today I think. Really looking forward to it

just received these. so far loving them

I have these - they have never left my OLED’s side once I placed them on.

I just ordered mine and I cannot wait to get them.

What's the sensitivity like on the thumbsticks? I had the original NYXI and loved the ergonomics, but found the sticks weren't nearly as smooth as the Hori split pad

Dang I didn’t look in the description before I bought

One of the dumbest things about the switch is it’s controls. Why Nintendo has left it up to third parties to fix this annoys me.

Where can I find them? I can't find them anywhere :'(

Right now, there's the Clear/transparent version for the Hyperion. I feel the Clear versions have better quality material than the classic version. I prefer these rather than the Hori pads, specially because you can use them as a wireless gamepad

Any deadzone on right stick or no deadzone ? Thanks ✌🏼

So take slim, sleek, modern , and make it chonk, and look like a 90's gamepad. Roger that...mission accomplished.

The biggest un-asked questions are, WILL THE STICKS GET STICK DRIFT? Do they have the new tech of magnetic 'holo sensors' seen in the kong controllers and the ayaneo 2? IF NOT, then it's just another set of mechanical switches that will inevitably fail you in the future. I don't care how pretty it looks if it will fail to do the most simple tasks it was intended for.

Got mine and I am a bit mixed on them. I had the hori split compact and enjoyed using them as they didn’t feel as bulky, however, I didn’t like that some button would get stuck, but I did like the joysticks and felt comfortable. The nyxi feel a little lighter than I expected and the build quality feels a bit cheap.. I do like the rgb lights and buttons feel okay. I do wish the xyba buttons had the letters in a different color or would also show the rgb lights. The sides do feel a bit wide, but I am going to try and get used to them. Overall, they seem great

I've had these for a week now and I LOVE them! I've been through soooooooooo many joycons and always had things to complain about with all of them. But not these! ....Okay. I have ONE complaint, which I cant find an answer for online so maybe someone here knows and can help. The problem: I dont like the RGB lights. They're distracting. So I turn them off. But every time my console goes into sleep mode and I turn it back on, the lights automatically reset. Is there a way to get them to just stay off for good?

I LOVE YOUR REVIEWS! So please, make reviews of IINE joycons, Genius and Elite version 🙏 They pretty close in looking to this one.

Joycon is both the singular and plural

Thank you for your review ! I've just buy one pair of transparent with your discount code :)

The joycons are really nice but the one thing that is bad is that the colors reset.

No HD Rumble in these? Bummer. Still might get them though

deadzone on a controller is part of controller calibration its kinda hard to have a controller without any deadzone config

Since the new ones are abit wider, will the new ones still fit in the Satisfye case or will it be a tight fit? I think I might buy a pair of Nyxi joy cons, cause I’m going to buy a switch and I’ve seen alot of good reviews on them, but I want to be sure that I buy a case for them that fits

Just got them and they are so good

Have tried it. Nothing for small hands. Have no problems with the HORI Pro Pad but with the NYXI i slide forward the bulky grips.

Is it possible to play with only one like the original joy con? For just dance by example

Personally waiting for joycons with electromagnetic thumbstick modules before getting aftermarket joycons. Until then I'll just use it docked with my 8bitdo controller.

I'd really love to see a comparison of these vs the officially licensed Hori pads, especially the build quality, particularly the D-pad. I know that the Hori doesn't come with wireless, rumble, and NFC support, but I'm leaning towards it because of the build quality (just basing it on my past experiences with their products as I've been using their pads since the SNES days.

What about the weight compare to the hyperion and the athena ?

I use a pair of controllers similar to binbok but from nexigo. They're not half bad. They always sell out though. So do binbok and nyxi. Why can't hori or nintendo make controllers like this?

Aren't the original Nixie joycon's the same exact joycons as the bin bok just different branding? I have the bin bok ones and when I felt the d-pad I thought oh God But then I used them and they are great. If I remember correctly you can do diagonals on it when you want to but don't do them accidentally unlike the Steam Deck were you can't do diagonals at all and the Switch pro controller where you do diagonals when your not trying to.

Might have to get me one of these.

I have a question, when they are attached to the switch, do they hold securely, I mean if there are no small involuntary disconnections due to a little play between the connectors of the controllers and the switch, if you move a lot while playing there will be no problem ?

Ordered mine last week ,look to be a good replacement .

Good enough to play something like Splatoon 3 which requires motion control on it?

How do you turn the led lights off? I have the transparent ones, and I would imagine it would be the same as the black one's shown in the video.

Can you use each joy con independently like the originals for games like Mario kart and 3d Mario?

Thanks for the review, I ordered because of your video. I received mine today but unfortunately the package was shipped without any protection inside. As a result, the joycon box was squashed and disformed when delivered. And I suppose as a result the right joycon is defective on arrival :/ the back button and joystick click on right joycon won't register. I suppose they are on CNY break now so I probably won't get any response from their support until end of Jan. It's really unfortunate because I like how the button clicks feel and overall shape. Just want to share my experience here, and hope I can get replacement or refund post CNY.

Best review I’ve seen

I bought many different versions of Joy Cons, but all of them except Hori always had the problem of an internal dead zone. and I wonder, they look great, but do they have an internal dead zone?

Hiya! Awesome video.. Are the joycons comfortable to use on their side for 2 player?

So how are the analog sticks and the deadzones on this new model?

How does the controller feel while attached to the switch? I had a binbok pair a while ago but returned them because they felt loose while on the switch and that made me uncomfortable.

In the deadzone test, you should really rotate the stick slower so you can actually see if it sticks anywhere. Most of these third party joycons have deadzones in the cardinal directions. You were rotating the stick so fast I couldn't actually see very well, unfortunately.

for a second I was confused when he said Zedel but he meant it as the zl trigger button

How many directions do the joysticks have? I've noticed my binbok controllers only have 8 directions that make gameplay on Zelda or dark souls a nightmare while the original Nintendo joycons are much smoother and feel like have more directional inputs

Can you use each as a single controller for 2 players??

Can they be used on PC? I play games mouse and controller.

I have never understood the joycon thing. I always have my switch in a controler that the switch actually slides into. All joycons move to much on the sides of the switch. Why would someone want 2 flimsy controllers on the sides of the screen?? Yucky 🤮 the screen needs support. This really chaps my ass. SUB BTW!

any thought on reviewing the new Hyperion pro? Looks like the the big difference is new joystick that offers no drift, what is your experience in the drift with the Hyperion at this point some months later?

as a mario odyssey and more original nintendo game player i need that vibration i got a hori split pad pro but sadly those don't have vibration in it

Awesome video! I was wondering if these worked with the two offical joycon charging docks. I can't find anything that answers this question.

Is this better than the white’s d pad? I love the white joycons but I can’t play fighting games on it because it will not for the love of god give diagonals

Do you know of a case that the new hyperion joycons will fit in when attached to the switch?

except that they randonly disconnect and you have to constantly change the rgb back.

This is the best Joy cons

So the remapable buttons can remap to each side? So the left side isn't stuck to the left side only then? Because I have been trying to find a part that works on both sides each. Where I can have right do anything from left and left can do anything for right for different needs for different games

Can I play switch sports with these

Does the console with hyperion fits in the skull&co max carry case? Thanks

Does this recognized as joycon on iPhone iOS?

How's the d-pad? That is my biggest concern getting this. I have the first NYXI Joycons and the dpad is..... not great (for me). I kinda dig the design of this more tho.

Would you prefer these over the Wizard version? I’m really stuck between these and the Wizards. Your thoughts?

How are the dead zones though

i love binkbok ones which are similar I just got them yesterday.

How does the rumble feel? My personal pair of BinBok joy-cons rumble feels reeeeeeaaaally cheap. And playing something like Mario 3D World, there are occasional momments that the rumble starts and just keeps going for a rediculous amount of time. Lol Still comfy, the rumble is my only complaint (perhaps just need an update, not sure)

How are these things holding up after extended use? I got some of the slim binbok joycons, but the buttons started crapping out less than a month later

NFC READER? That's a need for all controllers.

how do these compare to Binbok animal crossing edition? I've watched both your reviews and it's hard to decide on which.

I want to order it , is it save ?

Great! I much prefer clicky D-pads like the one on PSVita (or GPD's, Pocket 3's and Odin's). How does the Hyperion D-pad compare to that? - are the clicks audible like with the minus button?

Want this but like the new gamecube style one with the : Antidrift word one it. :)

can you use these joy cons separately as two controllers like you can with the stock joy cons?

T button is turbo or semiauto

Just got mines. Really like them compared to my binboks. Only problem is it right joystick doesn’t move sometimes. I have to put it to sleep and turn it back on and it’s good. One issue is why there isn’t a firmware update for them? They have updates for all the other controllers but not the hyperions.

I can't change the colour on my right joy con starting yesterday. Also cannot shut it off unless my switch is off. Has anyone had this happen? Left one works fine.

do you have to keep pressing the mapped button for turbo (eg holding the A button if its mapped) or does it do it by itself (just start turbo and it does A button input without actually pressing A)?

Can somebody please give me a carrying case for these with the OLED

I can get the left rear button to map to A. Pls help

Is the latency low and does it have quick response? I’d like to use for ssb.
