Neon Pink/Green Joy Cons

Works great especially with a Comfort Grip! (The one in the photo is my usb Charging Comfort Grip that I purchased along with the Joy-Con's) Nice, matte finish with a retro color scheme. Probably my favorite colors for Joy-Con's so far, and great little joysticks with great deadzone/responsiveness. The HD Rumble is by far the best in the business in the universe of gamepads in my opinion. I know some people have complained about the d-pad, but I personally like the singular buttons when playing with a full controller. I also have read positive reviews of the overall toughness of the controllers(along with the actual Switch), and I wasn't sure until I actually dropped my old Blue/Red setup with absolutely no problem whatsoever. =) Overall, the Switch is the next N64, and I'll probably be using these little guys for a long time. Way to go, Nintendo!

Looks super pretty on my switch

It looks super nice on my switch, arrived fine and shipped in time. Color collectors, be aware that they, for some reason, reversed the color combination from the EU/JPN versions. Those ones are left green, right pink, whereas the NA version is left pink, right green.

Great to have a spare set

They're joy-con. Love 'em or hate 'em, they're exactly as advertised. It could be my imagination, or maybe the fact that I played with my original ones for hundreds of hours before getting a second set, but these seem to be even more well-made and slightly more hefty than the ones that came with my Switch. I don't know if there have been any hardware changes to the Joy-con since I bought my Switch last March, and it very well could just be in my head, but they feel nice and it's great to have an extra pair around when I have friends over to play ARMS. I bought a charging base that charges two joycon and one pro controller, and I rotate out which joy-con are attached to my Switch and which ones are loose so they're being used evenly to hopefully increase their lifespan. It's really nice to be able to keep a pair connected to the Switch and have another pair to use when in docked mode, since some games feel really nice with the joy-con rather than the pro controller, and I can still just pull my Switch out of its dock with the other pair already attached. It's a great way to keep all four charged too, since they charge on the Switch in its dock as well as on the separate base.

Beautifully colored to bring life to your Switch

Beautiful vibrant colors. These Joy Cons, though on the expensive side, do bring a good life to your Switch with those beautiful colors. And in case you are wondering, they come with the black straps included; a nice plus. -UPDATE- After three months of being without power, I wish to add this detail to my review. The Joy Con batteries, after a week and a half of no use, start to lose power on their own. Although it is not such a huge deal, it is still worth noting, as it helps to keep a better eye on them.

Great Color Options and Functionality

The Joy-Cons are a staple of the Nintendo Switch system and Nintendo offers many different color options for Joy-Cons to use if you want to switch it up and try something new. These colors stood out to me in particular because they are very vibrant and stand out pretty well. They are meant to represent the popular game "Splatoon," just like how some other Joy-Con colors represent other games. The main reason I went with these Joy-Cons is to have an extra pair for when I play games with others or if I just want to give the Joy-Cons I already have a rest so they don't wear out too quickly. They can be pretty pricey, but with how many functions and features the Joy-Cons have, I personally can understand why they have their price. If you are on the hunt for new Joy-Con controllers but can't decide on a color pair to get, these vibrant neon pink and green ones are a great choice to go with.

Great addition to the Switch for those that couldn't snag the Neon version

I really wanted the Neon Switch, but since beggars can't be choosers, I bought the grey set and got these to go with it. Note, they are "flipped" compared to the ones included in the Neon Switch. Now I have two sets (the grey that came with my Switch) which is good for multiplayer!

Beautifully innovative, but may not be right for everyone

I have both a Nintendo joycon and a pro controller. I really enjoy the joycon as it can be split into two seperate controllers and be used by two seperate people, I think its extremely innovative. The rumble features in my opinion are on par with Sony and I have found the motion controllers to be very cool myself. However, buyers should be aware this product does not come with a grip (essentially the piece that holds the two joycon in one controller frame). It's just the two individual pieces not attached. The grip is approximately an extra 15 bucks. In addition these controllers are likely in addition to the pair that comes with the switch. These controllers do need to charge and the only way to do so is to have them attached to the switch console itself, which means you cant also charge the joycon that came boxed with the switch at the same time without another product. If you're going to buy the extra joycon I would recommend either a charging grip (which can be plugged in via USB- c to a wall charger or a charge station. I also recommend if you play more solo and less with friends to check out the Nintendo switch pro controller. This feels similiar to an xbox 360 controller and can also charge independently with a USB - c cable.

Neon to the max!!!

Probably the best looking joy-cons so far. Great job from nintendo!

Better looking than the colored ones

If you're still using the launch day joycons do yourself a favor and get yourself another set or send them in for repair. These are so much more responsive than my old ones (especially the left blue joycon).

Bright, bold, neon yellow!

Love the yellow! If you're into bright, fun neon colors, this is definitely the controller for you! Don't take my word for it - check out the pictures I posted. Looks and feels just like my neon red/blue controllers that came with the system. Honestly, no clue what the other reviewers are talking about with respect to shorter travel distance of the L/R buttons - I really don't see it, and I'm comparing directly against my neon red/blue controllers. I think maybe they've just broken in the red/blue controllers a bit more. I literally tried my red/blue and yellow side-by-side and they feel exactly the same for all the buttons with respect to travel distance, click-feel, etc. Also, the yellow color on the box really doesn't do the controllers justice. They're far more bright/neon than how they look on the box.
