CHEREEKI Switch Controllers, Wireless Bluetooth Controllers for Nintendo Switch/Nintendo Switch Lite - Gamepad Joypad Supports Gyro Axis, Turbo and Dual Vibration

I wanted to give this controller a good week of gaming before review, only because I did see a few reviews that had bad feedback about the battery not charging after a few times. Now after a good session, I can give a review based on the current state at this time. If anything changes down the line, I will be sure to update this review or leave feedback to the seller. With that said....I finally got my OLED Switch set up to my TV after awhile, and it made sense to pick up an external controller as to "switch" between that and the Joy Cons as needed. I'd wanted to go through my N64 library and figured a Pro style controller was the best choice. While I had the funds for an official one, my funds have been allocated to savings for a flat deposit and the adult things in life, so seeing this controller come up at the price point of £15.99 did have it's appeal.Now, I've been gaming as a full time hobby since I was 5, and I was introduced to analog control gaming when I was 7 (the N64 and the likes of Starfox, Mario, Ocarina and countless Rareware games etc etc). Like an avid guitarist, you get a "feel" for certain aspects of peripherals. Weight distribution, comfort, build quality and analog deadzone all go on my list of things to tick off on a quality audit. So I was sceptical about the said price. You have to realise, this thing is probably cheaper than a brand new MADCATZ controller back in the day ;) So to say it is a worthy purchase is no lazy feat to state.So, what do you get for this budget price? An evenly sized peripheral that somewhat mirrors the official pro controller in terms of grip shape and trigger placement. The triggers themselves, while in the likely index finger spot of comfort, are shaped more like the PS4 controller's triggers, though lacking the press distance and analog range (basically they're digital versions that have less travel distance to press, so I imagine Splatoon 2 players would benefit here).Charge holds through gaming sessions, been going through Majora's Mask and F Zero X heavily and I've only had to charge it twice this last week. Face buttons are nicely sized and spaced out, and even though there is an added TURBO button in parallel to the snapshot button (it has an O on the face) they aren't intrusive considering they are right below the - and + buttons respectfully. D pad also works well for menu navigation and it help it's own while I was dropping down Brinstar tunnels in Metroid.Now onto the minor negatives. Going back to the D pad, it requires a little more of a push on the up arrow. I was navigating games on the Switch online retro apps and it wouldn't register selecting up unless I put a little more thumb pressure onto it, though this could be on account of this particular controller I got or the fact that I've been tired from flat hunting and work XD The other main issue though is, and this is probably a real nit pick, but the analog stick dead zone isn't THE best. In a nutshell, the sticks won't register input for at least a few millimetres of distance that they're pushed. You ever rested the slightest pressure on a stick, say, during a stealth section or a finicky platform section over a narrow beam or pipe? I fell a few times trying to navigate an elevated section in Banjo Kazooie. Nothing experience breaking, I did get a feel for the range over time and I've had no issue pulling off the 360 circle trick in N64 games where you do a magic sword swing instantly. As I said, miner nit pick but anyone swapping between this and an Xbox Series S/X controller will notice the distance.That's it from me, definitely worth the price, be it a spare or main peripheral for your couch session on Switch. I think it's PC compatible but haven't had time to try that yet. I put it on charge about 2 hours ago writing this review and it literally finished juicing up (the blue lights on the front flash during a charge and stop when it's finished). I know some buyers have had issues so, again, might be an odd batch but I will update if anything deteriorates on my end. As of now, it works a treat.Update; After well over a month of use, I can still say I am well happy with this purchase. I actually feel the charge has gotten better on the battery after a few uses and lasts longer, with little to no time to charge up. I tested a load of games; Shadow Man, Turok 1 & 2, Animal Crossing, Mario 3D All Stars, Hollow Knight (D pad is really good on 2D games) and Metroid Dread wasn't too awkward for manual aiming after my thumb adjusted to the deadzoning. Honestly really impressed with it overall. Just came off an hour of Doom External as well, going back for more!

The specs on the product page are wrong, in the manual that comes with the controller it states it's Bluetooth 2 (not 4) and the battery is 400mAh (not 600).But overall the controller is pretty good for the price. It's not as nice to use as a Pro Controller (no gradiation on the triggers and the sticks aren't as fluid) but for the price you pay it's decent.

For the price this controller is a superb addition to your switch accessories. Holds a decent charge and is easy to pair following the simple instructions.It feels good in the hand and the dual analogue sticks are pleasing to use.The main trigger buttons do not illicit the same springy feeling you get from a PS4 or Xbox controller but they function well enough given the price of the controller.As mentioned before the pairing process is easy but know that the controller will disconnect when you start up any games that exclusively use the joy cons, E.g. 1-2 SWITCH, and then must be reconnected.Overall a very pleasing piece of kit and a steal at the price.

Bought as replacement, doesn't hold charge as long as original controller. And had problems with one buttons.Which is pity, as my son like feel of controller in his hands. Bit disappointed in length of time before controller played up.

These are great, great value for money and surprisingly solid and easy to setup. Hold a charge for a good while and are a great cost effective alternative to the expensive licenced joy cons. They charge via USB-C, which is convenient and can be connected off the switch dock. You can use them during charging too. They worked straight out of the box, pressing the home button then the top two shoulder buttons simultaneously connected them straight away, no issues at all. Classic gamepad style, now let's see how long they last!

Excellent controller, connects to the switch console instantly.

I used it for PC games it is comfortable just i think the USB-C port is getting dislodged or getting loose. Most my cables don't stay connect to the controller and just comes loose.if this can be set up for wireless for pc can someone teach me how.

Great product, connected effortlessly to my sons switch, also worked well on my PC. Rumble is solid, layout is spaced appropriately, I was very surprised by its overall look and feel. Great substitute for the £70 switch original controllers.
