Review on FASTSNAIL Grips - Compatible with Nintendo Switch Joy Con & OLED Model Joycon - Durable Handle Kit for Joy Cons Controllers - 2 Pack (Black) by Kevin Apriando

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Turns out the FastSnail grips look like a smoother/smoother version of the Joy-Con grips that came with the kit.

First Thoughts: When I first saw this product online I was expecting a gummy feel. Turns out the FastSnail grips look like a smoother/smoother version of the Joy-Con grip that came with the Switch. Inserting the Joy-Cons into the Grip is as quick and easy as removing them, and the lightweight design makes them ideal for travel. I tested the grip with the notoriously weird R Joy-Con while playing the MK8 Deluxe. With no grip, the R Joy-Con forces me to wield the controller for a reasonably comfortable grip, pressing the SL and SR buttons on top becomes a chore and causes a bit of a cramp when I'm riding tricky tracks. The grip allowed me to hold the R-Joy like a traditional controller, the SL/SR bumpers on the grip made using the SL/SR buttons more responsive, and the center joystick was more comfortable to use. Final Verdict: This is a quality product at an affordable price that is essential for Switch owners trying to get the most out of their Joy-Cons. The FastSnail grips give the Joy-Con some much-needed weight that makes it more comfortable for long gaming sessions and sharing with others.

Pros
  • ERGONOMIC DESIGN – IMPROVED SL and SR buttons for longer life. The ergonomic design offers excellent support and improved comfort. Allows you to play longer, e.g. B. Mario Kart and Street Fighter Ultra.
Cons
  • So far so good
