Diswoe&1 Wireless Controller for Switch/Switch Lite/Switch OLED, Rechargeable Remote Switch Controller Gamepad Joypad with Adjustable Turbo Dual Shock Gyro Axis
How do I connect the Diswoe Switch Controller to the Switch Console and the PC?
1. Connect to the Switch console:
(1) On the Switch console interface, go to the Change Handle / Order screen.
(2) With the controller switched off, press and hold the H button for 5-10 seconds until the 4 LED displays change from flashing slowly to flashing quickly. During the pairing, the four LED displays flash quickly and after a successful connection the LED displays light up continuously.
2. Establish a connection to the Windows PC:
(1) When the handle is turned off, plug in the TYPE-C data cable directly. The control lights on handles 2 and 4 always light up and the controller on the PC side shows the XBOX 360 control.
(2) At this point, hold down “H” for about 3 seconds. The control lamp 2 always lights up and automatically switches to normal PC mode.
Note: 1.If you cannot charge the controller, poke the controller reset holes twice to reset and try again. Since the circuit board intelligently protects the inner core, it is automatically separated.

I was slightly hesitant in buying a non-official controller, however, my fears quickly disappeared once I had received the item, the controller itself is built really well, it had some power but decided to give it a full charge as recommended. To my surprise, there was Type-C charging cable included, whilst we have numerous cables that would have charged the controller, it’s always nice to have a spare charging cable.
Once the controller was fully charged, we were able to pair the controller to the Switch in minutes, initially, I thought my nine-year-old daughter might find the controller too big to use, however, she too was completely happy in playing all her favourite games, both the children have also remarked on what a comfortable and easy to use experience the new controller has provided.
The controls, vibrations, the accelerometer and gyro-sensor are second to none, the gameplay is absolutely fantastic and responsive. According to the manual and packaging, the controller is compatible with the PC too. The controller provides incredible value at a fraction of the cost of the official Nintendo controller. Would I buy another one of these? Absolutely.
Just wanted to say thank you for the controller . It is perfect and works so well with my switch. I was a bit hesitant at first as is my first switch and didn’t know what other model controllers would be like but I have to say your one is perfect. So handy and easy to use. Cheaper aswell which makes it even better as I find Nintendo versions very expensive!
Hopefully you’ll start doing joy con pairs (if you haven’t already ) as I would definitely purchsse them from you 🙂
This product is perfect for everyone’s need of you want fantastic game control when playing games on your switch. I find the weight of the controller is lighter than some controllers that you can purchase . The feel of the device is very comfortable and feels great when playing games. The rubber on the handles gives you a better feel when holding controller. Battery life is fantastic and lasts ages compared to some controllers out there. For the price of the controller it is excellent value for money and it connects with bo problems . I would give this device a 10/10 and I would recommend anyone to buy it.
Really good controller for the price. Needed a third controller to play Mario Kart with the family and this was a better option than forking out for new joy cons.
Motion sensing is great. Rumble is basic but effective. My daughter enjoys using this controller over the original controllers when playing fortnite. It works on her pc too.
Connection to the Switch console is a little complicated, but this is down to the console settings. The controller comes with very good instructions on how to connect to the console.
All in all, for the price, I don’t think you’d get a better controller.
Managed to get this at sub 20 and thought i would try it as i needed a second pad. I have an official Nintendo pro controller and love that controller, so this had a lot to live up to.
I was impressed with a number of things about this Diswoe wireless controller:
– The build quality is very good
– It feels very good in the hand
– The buttons, sticks and D-Pad all work as you would expect.
Extra points that also exceeded my exception:
– It was surprisingly easily to pair to the Switch
– The turbo button is a nice additional extra that i didn’t even know i needed. 🙂
– Battery Life is extremely good and the fact you can recharge the pad and not burn through AA’s is
If i had tried this pad before i had the official Nintendo pro controller i would have bought three of these as opposed to buying the one official Nintendo.
I don’t do Amazon reviews all to often, however this controller is seriously one great piece of kit! If you’re thinking of getting one then just go for it it’s worth it!
Having been a console player all my life I can hand on heart testify that this controller is one of the best quality I have held. The ergonomics are perfect, the joysticks are smooth, the buttons are tactile and it just works..you just turn it on, enter pairing mode on the switch and that’s it. It’s done. It will work just like the joycons from now on. And the thing that really topped it for me was that it charges via USB-C. Such a god send as everything else I own has upgraded to that too so now there’s no need for any old wires to come back out of the wire drawer.
I am very satisfied with the quality of the product received.
The control sticks have nice grooved-in centres to help with the feel of the controller. The trigger buttons (R, ZR, L, ZL) all feel responsive to my inputs. It carries the HOME button unlike controllers like the gamecube controller which helps me as I would have to move to the switch itself to change softwares. The screenshot button is also on this controller allowing quick snapshots of the games. Exclusive to this controller is the turbo button as it allows you to repeatedly press a button without having to press the button more than once However I haven’t found how to use this feature correctly as I have not had the controller for long and it doesn’t benefit me with the game I am currently playing. The directional pad is very smooth which helps so you can switch from action to action in games quicker. The rumble feature feels just as good if not better then the pro controller and joycons.
Overall my opinion on the controller is that it is superior to the previous instalment of the Nintendo Pro Controller as its turbo feature and better feeling directional pad makes it a bette
This is a great product. Bought my daughter a switch for Christmas. She has been hooked ever since but I wanted to get another controller and one that was a bit more robust than using the joycons.
The build quality is very good. I’m particularly impressed with the textured grips. They ensure my daughter can keep hold comfortably even with her small hands.
I would describe the shape and feel as a cross between the dualshock 4 and the Nintendo Pro controller. All of the buttons are easily accessible and feel good. The vibration functions seem just right too!
Haven’t had a chance to try the turbo function out yet. I’m not sure how useful that will prove but it’s handy to know the option is there if needed.
All in all, if you’re looking for a quality 3rd party controller for a great price then look no further!
This pad it far superior to the joycon controllers, I would fully recommend, so much so I have just bought another one.
The price is also a plus.
Plenty of battery life for wireless game play several hours at a time.
The pad is accurate, comfortable and tough, so far it has survived being launched a couple of times, I can be a bad loser!
Item is easy to pair to the Nintendo switch and works on my PC also when plugged into the USB uding the supplied cable.
Supplier is quick and item comes well packaged.
After turning on, this was really easy to connect with my switch by following the instructions that came with it.
I find it much more comfortable than using the joy-cons that came with my switch, and have had no issues with it whilst playing on any of my games. As far as I can tell it works just as well as the official nintendo one.
Feels nice and solid in the hands. The rubberised grips make it comfy to hold. Good weight – it dosent feel like a toy. Nice rumble action. Buttons are nice and clicky, joystics nice, percise and smooth. Considering the price, one would expect maybe something to be lower quality here, but the pad is really great! Very plesant suprise. Defo an upgrade for me from playing on Switch’s joycons
I purchased this after reading several positive reviews and I’m so glad I did! Its very responsive, comfortable to hold and fantastic for Mario Kart! My children have asked for another one so they have one each. It keeps its charge and incredibly easy to set up with the Switch, it worked straight away. The instruction booklet is clear and helpful. I would definitely recommend.
Great feeling and looking controller. Excellent quality, particularly for the price.
Size wise it’s closer to a PS4 controller than an Xbox One controller
The controller feel good and long gaming sessions do not feel uncomfortable.
Battery life is good but have only just started using it.
Compared to the other switch controller I have, I am very impressed with this controller and would recommend it.
This controller was purchased to be used as a standalone controller for the switch. To change to the docked mode by removing the switch controllers each time can be a bit of a pain.
This controller solves the issue with the switch by having a standalone controller. It pairs really easily on the first switch on pairing, and then every time just to turn on the button and it connects instantly.
I have found that I prefer gaming with this standalone controller when docked with the TV screen as the Nintendo controllers are a bit cramped for usage.
Overall, great value for money and works well with all games that I have played with it so far. For me this is a no-brainer purchase at the cost and provides convenience in no-longer needing to remove the official nintendo controllers.
From the minute i took the controller out of the box, you can feel the great build that went into it, for an amazing price as well, absolutely over the moon with this purchase!! Great product, 100% recommended!! Please be careful as there is copies around Amazon of this product, so I’m happy i listened to reviews about this one.
So far so good.!! We’ve had this controller about 2 weeks now and used to to play overcooked, animal crossing, and Zelda Botw.. Its perfect.. We wanted it as playing long hours with the normal controller hurt out hands and cramped the fingers. This controller is nice and wide, feels solid and works really well. Playing long hours no longer hurts the fingers and hands.!
The controller is quite good. It arrived early and well packed.
The motion detection is fairly good, it seems like it is made with good material as well.
You can play while charging, although I would suggest using a longer usb-c as the one provide is good but too short. It charges quite fast and the battery last about 9-10 hours depends on use.
It was easy to connect and it has a nice tact.
Having used many official and non-official controllers for just about every games console released in the last 30 years, this controller is up there with the best of any third party controllers I’ve used. It feels very nice in the hand, the buttons and analogue feel nice to use and the battery life is great. The turbo button is a nice feature to have but not essential. Great value compared to the Switch Pro controller.
Update. Absoluteky fantastic customer services from seller. They messaged me within 24 hours with troubleshooting which unfortunately did not solve the problem. They then messaged me 24 hours later and are sending me a new controller ….cant ask for more. The new controller was delivered within 3 days…..excellent. The controller was paired without problems and is working perfectly. Really cannot speak more highly of the product and the customer services. Will definitely use them again. Other suppliers have a lot to learn. Thank you Diswoe
The controller arrived next day with prime. It was extremely easy to connect to my Nintendo switch with no problems at all took less than 2 minutes. The controller has a PlayStation type feel but with the Xbox button locations which for me personally is ideal. It feels very nice and comfortable in my hands when playing and I game for many hours a day. The battery life seems very good for me and lasts a nice amount of time. I would strongly suggest anyone looking to buy a Nintendo switch controller that this product is definitely the ideal option!
I decided to take a chance on this controller as I don’t find the joy con controller comfortable when using the switch docked and the Pro controller is so expensive. I’m glad I did as it works fantastically well and is very comfortable.
The pairing worked effortlessly…as long as you follow the included instructions and do it from the controller configuration screen instead of the “find controller” screen like I tried to. 🙂
Anyway, long story short, this is a fantastic controller for the switch which I would happily recommend to anyone.
Really impressed with this controller. Bought as a back up to the top class official Pro controller. I’d say its just as good. All functions work well, no drift or dead spots on the sticks. The buttons are positive and slightly more click than the Pro but perfectly acceptable. Nice feeling grippy surface. Battery life is good. Only downside is the speed in which it connects to the console. Doesn’t seem as fast as the official ones, but again perfectly acceptable.
I brought this product as I wanted to test the dynamics of a controller before purchasing the official one. I have to say after the easy set up and amazing delivery I won’t be purchasing the official controller. It’s fast speed and low price means I will buy another for the same price of one official ! Both me and my partner love this for our use on switch with Zelda and Overwatch. Definitely value for money ! Motion detection is grea
Had a quick look at the Pro controller – decided I’m not wanting to pay for that right now. Looked at the highest rated 3rd party one and here is it.
Looks and feels great, solid build, not to heavy, not to light.
Have had in a while now and the battery is great, buttons and sticks all feel solid still.
It was a bit of a pain for it to connect the first time, so I just let it charge fully and then reset the controller which did the trick. The switch displays the pro controller for it too when connected which is a nice touch.
Might get a second one.
I was surprised because of the high quality of this controller. I am based in Spain and I had credit left in my british account so I bought this controller to spend it. I was very surprised when it arrived because this controller worked perfectly and it is 3 times cheaper than the Nintendo’s one. I highly recommend it, I’m playing right now Mario Kart with it.
I bought this controller for my nintendo switch as it has amazing opinions and the price was incredible for the product. It arrived very quickly. It was super easy to pair up with my nintendo switch and the battery life it is really good. I have only charged it once so far and I have been playing for a week (1-2 hours/day average). Easy to hold, not too big or small, and it has a beautiful design. I really recommend this product great value for the money!
This is a fabulous controller, with same controls as N switch controllers, once paired, can be used with nintendo switch, has a good wireless range, my son says theres no warning b4 battery dies. So just charges after approx 4 hour use, charges well, Instructions simple, and has reset button which you can use phone key in, if need to repair with another device, or reset for any reason. Great controller for price, easy for children to hold.
I had issue with the first one (broke after one use) – supplier reached out themselves and gave me a new one (thank you).
Connects easily to both Android and Nintendo switch devices, works well on both. It’s not as good as the Nintendo switch controller but still a good controller for half the price.
This is obviously not as good as Nintendo pro controller, but still al really good controller.
Firstly the packaging, was nice to see the controller was actually in bubble wrap inside the box. This protected the controller for sure.
Secondly, the charging cable is well made, not something that looks like it will break after a few uses, positive touch
Thirdly, the instructions, whilst quite small to read, covered the basic points needed
Finally, the connection to my Nintendo Switch, was quick and successful (although had to connect it via the USB cable to the Nintendo Switch console initially, but after that, great wireless connection every time, no problems experienced so far
Conclusion, nice wireless controller for Nintendo Switch, equal to any Nintendo brand
This controller is a must.
For the price this controller is brilliant, I’ve waited a while so I could test it out on a variety of games and I must say it’s solid and well made, the grip is comfortable and the motion detector is very precise. Not to mention that it’s easy to set up and a third of the price of the official switch controller.
The customer service is excellent with detailed instructions being sent via email and in the box. The battery life is also great, getting up to a 7-8 hour play session, which is more than enough.
So if you’re still unsure if you should pay the extra for an official controller…don’t, this one is practically identical and I can’t even tell the difference.
Thanks a bunch!
It’s unbelievable how comfortable this controller feels when playing. The controller itself is probably if not equal to the quality of the official Pro Controller sold by Nintendo but sold at more than half the price of the Pro Controller. The quality of the build on this controller is incomparable to other third-party controllers for the switch on the market. I was surprised at first how affordable the controller was but given the practicality of the controller had to give it a try and I’m glad I did! I definitely got my money’s worth!
Not only have I used this for my switch but I have used this for other games on my PC. The versatility for this controller has deemed very useful for me. I’ll be recommending this controller to my friends who own a switch!
The controller I received was of excellent quality. For the price I honestly don’t think you could get a better controller.
I got the controller within 3 days of ordering it (with free shipping) And the controller came ready to go I just plugged it in to connect it, unplugged it to use wirelessly and then started playing.
The materials are great and the build quality is equally as good with no creaking or flex from the plastic.
The shape is very ergonomic fitting comfortably in your hands and the rubber grips are great for holding onto the controller especially after playing for a while.
Honestly I couldn’t praise this controller enough. I highly recommend getting it.
Feels really solid in the hand!
People used to a Dualshock 4 would feel right at home in terms of shape but with some improvements. There is a textured rubbery grip on the handles which is very comfortable. The buttons and directional pad are nice and clicky, triggers have a nice short travel with a satisfying feel to them and the analog sticks are of a good quality. The gyro controls feel just as responsive as the official pro controllers.
For the price, this is an absolutely brilliant little controller, especially for the price! I will definitely be buying another and looking out for other items Diswoe make in the future.
Overall great controller for casual play but lower price has drawbacks. This comes in the form of a larger deadzone on the analogs which cannot be changed. Not recommended for FPS games
We purchased this controller for my daughter after the original Joycons started drifting.
This is a great quality controller for the money, comfortable to use and easy to pair to the Switch.
Button feel is good and the Analog sticks are accurate and feel good.
Instructions are clear and easy to read.
Overall a great product for the money and a definite consideration over the Nintendo Pro Controller, which is over double the price.
I bought a Nintendo Switch for the quarantine that came only with one controller. Even though Nintendo Switch comes with its joy-con controllers and allows co-operative games, I decided to buy a second controller to play with my girlfriend. We found this one, which offers good quality at a reasonable price and gave it a go.
After playing with it I can say that it feels great, light but not cheap. Buttons work fine, as well as the connectivity with the Switch. I can’t say much about the battery since I am still in the early months, but so far so good. It can connect to the PC, and although I do not think I will use it much, compatibility is always a plus!
Really recommend this controller!
This is an inexpensive pad, so I didn’t know what to expect. Let’s just say I’m pleasantly surprised! It has a nice weight, the buttons feel good to touch, and it’s very responsive. I’ve had the pad for 3 days, as it arrived 1 day early.
The battery life was good, and can be charged easily using the supplied USB C cable.
The build quality is substantial, and I expect it to last for quite some time.
If you are looking for a spare, or just to get away from the joycon then this is the pad for you.
I got this because my switch controller didn’t last long enough! I was expecting it to be ok, but not as good……I was VERY wrong!!
I’ve used it for 2 hours and I’m so pleased with it in buying another one so I can use one while one is charging!! .
It’s very comfortable to hold. It sensitive but not too the point you fly across the screen with a nudge!
I don’t know what the battery life is like yet.
I had the official Nintendo wireless controller but had to replace it. The official one just started to constantly move by itself when you are trying to play games, after resetting /recalibrating etc multiple times it was still doing it. i bought a new non-official one. It was much cheaper (I was loathe to pay a lot of money and the same thing happen in a year or so as we don’t use them much) and works well. the only issue is you can’t turn off/on the switch unit with this
otherwise no more steering off course by itself in mario kart!
I got this for my partner as using the little joycons things were really annoying after a while and not very comfortable,
This controller is very sturdy feeling and has really nice grip, it definitely doesn’t feel cheap or light it has some weight which I like in a controller.
Extremely simple pairing literally 5 seconds and you’re away.
The vibration is very strong and the buttons all feel good too, especially the shoulder buttons which I honestly believe feel better than PS4s shoulder buttons!
Type C charger which is good because most phone chargers are type C so you shouldn’t be short at hand to charge it.
I don’t think it supports amiibo, I’ve yet to try but i would say this it’s a very good controller for the price and makes games more enjoyable. Comes with a turbo button so it makes picking up weeds on animal crossing or crafting bulk items more easier.
I will likely be purchasing more of these controllers if I need to.
Great controller 5/5 from me, would recommend.
The controller is very easy to hold and very comfortable in your hands. it’s not heavy which is very good for longer time playing. also, they keys are big and easy to press and very responsive too. i am quite happy with this controller. also, it’s much cheaper compared to the original nintendo ones.
the first one that arrived had a bit of problem with connecting to the console and kept hanging. i managed to contact the seller and they were quick to reply and sort the problem out. over all, the next controller has been working like a charm!
Upon arrival, I was instantly impressed with how comfortable it was to hold, particularly the grips on the handles. The buttons are sturdy and well made, and the toggles work like a dream. It does have quite a powerful vibration feature, which the kids aren’t too keen on, but it doesn’t bother me. It also seems to hold a decent amount of energy before I have to put it on to charge.
All in all, its a no frills, no nonsense, sturdy, reliable controller at a fantastic price.
Had to write a review for this controller as I absolutely love it! Some people have mentioned that it’s awkward to connect/pair but I found it really easy! I was up and running and playing multi-player against family member within minutes.
The controller feels real good quality and weight, the buttons feel quality like an original/official Nintendo or Xbox controller – after using this for 1-2 hours I’d never go back! Save 30+ and go for this! The box and instructions aren’t as professional as an official brand though, but I don’t care as long as the controller itself is as good as this.
This is a very good controller and I would definitely recommend this for a replacement of joy con for gaming.
My joy cons are no longer responding very well, particularly the left thumb stick, after a month of having gaming (animal crossing & diablo ), so I started looking for a replacement of controller. Then I find this. I am not disappointed. I have used it for over 2 month now for 100 for hours and it still perform very well. The controller grip feels like PS4 controller which is also a plus for me as I am used to ps4 controller.
The only thing that isn’t obvious about it is how to turn it on and off. You have to hold down the “H” button in the photo right in the middle of the controller. However, once you know that it is easy.
Indeed the controller has proven so good I have just ordered a second one so the whole family can play in a multi-player game.
Hope that helps and happy gaming.
After the thumbstick breaking on my Nintendo Switch Lite decided to buy an external controller. I originally looked at the official pro controller but was put off by price.
I then seen this controller for under half the price and thought it will do till I can afford the official one however after receiving the product I now have no intention to buy the pro controller.
This one was super easy to connect to the switch and the switch lite recognises it as a pro controller and I can’t see what the difference with the official one would be. All functions on this controller work fully and havenhwr no issues within any games.
I also like that this this controller has some colour to it with the red and blue. Would highly recommend to anyone considering the pro controller.
So I I saw this on Amazon, read the reviews and bought this controller and it is an absolute joy.
Firstly, don’t worry about how to pair it, just connect it to your switch with the USB provided and it pairs automatically so there is no need to mess with your settings etc.
The feel of the controller is sturdy but lightweight and is more comfortable in the hand than the official Nintendo JoyCons. The buttons are larger and I found that playing Fortnite, it was easier to take down your opponents by using this controller. But the great news is that it has completely resolved the issue of the character drfting to the left.
I don’t usually write reviews but if you have a Nintendo Switch, this controller will really highlight your gaming experience.
First impressions are really good. I also have a pro controller and I tried several different ones in comparison, the power a ones are good but don’t last 5min, had 2 of those broke. I’ve also had a few other options including the customisable one, which was ok but the input lag was awful. This controller is by far the best alternative to the pro controller I’ve used so far. It’s comfortable, feels of good construction with a nice weight and the performance is close to that of the pro
I haven’t used this controller myself as it’s for my son but, I can tell you that he loves it.
The original Switch controllers are small and it’s expensive to buy a second or third set when you want to play multiplayer games so this was ideal.
My son is 11 and was easily able to set it up and connect it by himself and tells me that it’s great for gaming – half the price of the branded version (my older daughter has that one) and looks nicer in my opinion.
Fully recommended by the boy who know better than me!
I have purchased the pro controller for my 9 years old son. He is using it continuously since we bought it. He is very happy with it, he said that the buttons are handy to use, the vibration of the controller is a nice feature and the material of which is made of has a good grip.
All in one you’ve made a good quality product at less than half price of the original one.
Hope this review will help.
Kind regards,
A
First off, I have to say I’ve never used a pro controller because of its price, so cannot compare the two of them.
Have only had this controller for a couple of days, but It feels great when holding, you don’t get a “cheap” feeling. Buttons respond well, joysticks respond very smoothly. Easy to connect to the switch by pressing the home button for about 5s (at least in my case).
You can set your switch to sleep, only drawback I’ve seen so far is you can’t use the controller to wake the console, you have to either use the home button on your joycons or power button on the actual switch.
100% satisfied with this purchase!
I bought this controller not too long after getting my Switch and a Switch Pro controller so more members of the family could share the fun.It is extremely intuitive to use and connect,workst flawlessly wired or wirelessly and to my surprise it works extremely well on the PC where it acts plays and feels pretty close to an Xbox One controller.
If you need a 2nd,3rd or 4th controller for your Switch or if you want a great-feeling controller to use on PC but do not want to break the bank look no further. I will definitely buy at least one more and will definitlely keep an eye out of future products from this manufacturer as their products definitely offer good quality for a low price.Major thumbs up for the quality analog sticks!
The control design is pretty decent. Unfortunately, the device struggles consistently to pair with the Nintendo switch! Even when plugging in via the USB C wire the controller it does not pair or work! Very frustrating and I’m close to breaking the damn thing.
Thank you for the swift response!
We have been able to pair the controller with the instructions you provided by email!
P.S – Sorry for the late reply! We have been too busy playing Fifa 2020 to reply and update the review until now.
Thanks again!
Bought originally for PC, I’ve been using this with my Nintendo Switch every day for 4 weeks since Animal Crossing came out! No complaints.
– Battery life seems good.
– It comes with a USB-C cable but I bought a longer one so it can reach.
– Works fine with Steam on PC.
– Pretty easy to set up. Now whenever I turn the Switch on, I turn this on shortly afterwards and it automatically pairs.
It’s not cheap but it’s half the price of an official controller and just as good.
The controller worked well for a week but now won’t re charge and fails to connect to the switch. Can no longer use it.
Edited: A full refund has been given to me today so I have added more stars. The controller itself when worked was great and light weight and pleasant to hold.
TIP: it also works with your mobile phone, which I didn’t know.
Luckily, i managed to get hold of a switch before lockdown and there being a worldwide shortage.
It has been a godsend in the struggle to keep my kids entertained.
To be honest this thing is a bargain if you compare it to the crazy prices of Nintendo’s pads.
The controller is easy to setup
In conclusion, it’s good value, and has met all my expectations.
If you found my review useful please consider giving me a helpful vote and perhaps a follow for future reviews. Many thanks
Seems to be well made and sturdy – slight trouble getting it to connect to the console at first but it worked itself out, being used as an additional and responds better than the wired versions which we have that have odd controller drift
very happy so fa
I’m not used to buying 3rd party controllers, but the official one is double the cost so I thought let’s give it a try. The controller is superb. It feels comfortable and paired up with no issues. I would definitely recommend if your looking to avoid paying 60 for the official controller. I bought this for my 4 year old so it’s a perfect controller for him and if he breaks it in the future it’s not too expensive to replace.
Had some trouble connecting it initially, however using the small reset button and trying again connected it immediately.
If anyone is having trouble connecting it to your switch, try resetting it (paperclip sized hole on the back beside a screw) and connecting again. Worked for me!
Otherwise the product works exactly as you’d expect, and the handles are quite comfortable. The buttons create a satisfying click and the whole thing is very responsive. If anything the vibration is a tad too strong but it’s easy to overlook. I’d recommend it if you dont want to spend a ton on an official pro controller, just be aware of the connecting trouble!
The original joy-con from my switch started to play up, things were mowing around the screen by themselves. Also i always found the joy-cons too small and fiddly. Quick search on amazon and i bought two different controllers, one of them is this one. What can i say, the packaging was basic but the controller itself is great. Feels good quality, all works smooth and precise, the battery holds well and it vibrates during drifting in mario kart!! Awesome and recommended!
The control is quite something, I received it much earlier than anticipated and opened it in glee. After reading the short but direct instructions and looking up a video my controller quickly connected. The connection is constant and strong, and i see no difference between my controller and my joycons.
The feel of the controller is great, its very natural and doesnt feel cheap. If you had shown the controller and the price I wouldn’t have believed you
The controller works both docked and undocked, and the initial charge was fast. I am very happy with my purchase and recommend it to anybody who needs a controller but doesn’t have the money to pay 80 for Nintendo’s original.
Bought this to protect the now infamous “joy con drift” issues that plague the switch (we’ve had to send one of them back for repair, luckily still in warranty) – this is loads cheaper than buying one of the Nintendo branded controllers and does a good, responsive job. We had an issue with it not connecting to the console once, but was solved with a simple push of the reset button inside the controller.
Also, this is far more comfortable in the hand than the “thing” you get bundled with the switch itself. Winner, winner.
I ordered two controllers in December and was initially pleased with them when they arrived. After a few months, I started to have what turned out to be some intermittent issues with them not turning on. When it first happened, I left an angry review, but then managed to get them working again. The issue happened a couple of times but we couldn’t figure out what was causing it. In any case, the supplier reached out to us to find out more about the issue, and offered to replace the controllers. The new ones arrived promptly and so far we’ve not had a problem with them.
UPDATED: Had 3 of these and 2 have stopped working a few months after buying, they both stopped charging, no damage to the charging ports, checked the battery inside 1 and it was fine so it seems there’s an inherent fault in the charging circuit that causes it to burn out after a while, not wasting any more money on them, ordered an official one
(OLD REVIEW)
It’s a really well built and nice looking controller but I have to say the timeout (auto power off) is annoying when doing 2 players as if you’re watching a cut scene or its a part of the game where the other player is doing stuff the controller often just turns off, also the battery doesn’t seem to last a great deal on f time, tempted to open it up and see if I can replace with a larger capacity one, I would buy again, however it would be nice if they made a charging dock for a pair of them
Incredibly comfortable and easy to use. Very easy to pair, just hold down the home button for 5 seconds and the lights will flash quicker than usual, then in the controllers menu on the switch, they’ll show up and you’re good to go! These fit in my hand very well and are so much more comfortable than just a single joy-con my partner and I were using to play games before. I repeat, get these not the official Switch pro controller (…unless you’re a purist and have more money than sense!)
This Bluetooth wireless controller for the Switch has proven to be exceptional value compared to the Nintendo branded ones. It is robust – having survived one week of hard-playing by a 10 year old already! – and looks good. Easy to use and very easy to connect when first opening. Charging well. We are getting a lot of use out of it – allowing us to play as a family now that we have more controllers.
Fast delivery and good service: I recommend this.
Straight out of the box I will admit I was impressed with the weight of the controller and how comfortable it was! However, having said that my hands are quite large and it fits me very well so bear that in mind. When it first connects to the Switch I experienced maybe a little lag from the controller but within 5 seconds that completely disappears and you are left with a satisfying experience.
The battery seems to run for longer than advertised too… it says 6 hours but with the recent lock-in situation I have been playing several hours a day and not recharged yet…
Overall a very good controller with a good rumble and a good weight to it. Just beware if you have small hands as this may be a little cumbersome for you!
I purchased this because one of the original nintendo controllers stopped working and I did not want to purchase a pair of official ones for 60+
This controller is excellent for playing games where you do not need the motion controls and is so much cheaper than the official Nintendo pro controller.
Easy to connect, with a very effective rumble option, I have just ordered another one to stop the arguments as to who gets to use the new one!!
Seems good so far. Not as robust feeling as the rip-off proper one and didn’t connect properly a couple of times but easy to resolve by reconnecting from main screen.
Plays well and holds charge for a long time.
Good value and happy with it overall.
My only trouble with this product was finding how to initially connect it, but a quick Google search and it turned out to be really easy. All you need to do is go to the Change Grip/Order screen in Settings and press and hold the home button for 5 seconds until it flashes. Easy.
The controller itself is easy to handle and work, although I do find it nicer to use when the switch is ported onto a TV screen. It deals very well with the fast-paced button mashing of Smash Bros, and the price is incredible compared to joycons.
OK so I never had to pair a controller to my switch before it was a little wierd to start with but only took 5 mins to configure properly… I put pokmon shield on and it’s absolutely quality to use to cycle around on the game its so easy to use and the grips on the controller makes it feel so comfortable and its not light either like the ps4 one it’s got added weight to it I can’t praise it enough if your debating to get one of these pull the trigger cus I love mine
I reviewed this product a while ago after I bought and gave it 1 star because it suddenly stopped charging. But for some reason it started working again. I haven’t had any issues with it and my son is loving it.
So I would recommend this product.
This is a really good budget controller for the switch, the vibration is a bit much sometimes but in general it all works really well.
I had it stop working at one point however it’s an easy issue to fix if you’re having a similar issue where the controller won’t turn on. You need to remove the back plate by unscrewing the grips on the controller and then unscrewing the back, inside you’ll see the battery which is plugged in next to the vibration part on the left side. Remove the battery connector and plug it back in again. This fixed the issue for me and is working fine again.
Great product works for Nintendo Switch and my PC! Defiantly worth the price but there is one thing. After a few hours the right stick started making a little squeak when moving left which is slightly annoying this is probably just a defect of mine specifically but it’s not that bad when my actually Nintendo Joycons came with a squeak on the right stick and had black marks on it. Overall a cheap alternative to the overpriced official Nintendo Switch Pro Controller!
The Diswoe Wireless Controller is the ideal alternative to the original Switch controllers. It was easy to pair with my son’s Switch and has performed very well ever since. When pairing for the first time, make sure there aren’t any other devices nearby that may confuse the pairing process. My son is very happy and said his new Diswoe Wireless Controller has made his Christmas. Four stars awarded as it is still early days, although it does get plenty of use.
“I purchased this controller for my 5 year old as he originally wanted an Xbox. The controller made him feel like the he was playing more grown up games on the Switch without having to buy a new consol.
The controller itself is extremely easy to set up following the instructions provided and really, really easy to use.
It fits his hands okay too so no issues.
Delivery was quick, arriving when promised.
All in all, a great product and seller”
The first thing I noticed was the weight – this has a decent weighted feel to it, unlike some cheaper controllers which seem very lightweight and plasticky. The size has been designed to fit perfectly in your hand, and is very comfortable to use. I charged this controller when it first arrived, and have used it for about 9 hours so far and the battery is only just now starting to get low. It only takes around 2 hours to charge back to full anyway. The buttons are responsive, and the bottom grips are rubberised so you don’t slip when getting a bit “button happy” in certain games! The rumble feature is surprisingly powerful – the vibrations are much stronger than the original Nintendo Switch controllers. The only thing I should say is that the instructions say you need to hold the button for 5 seconds to pair to the console, but you actually need to hold it for 7 seconds so it to show up.All in all a very good purchase.
I wasn’t sure about purchasing a non-Nintendo controller for my Switch, but the potential money savings convinced me to give this controller a try. I’m glad I did. It feels great in the hands, has a nice weight to it, the motion and vibration controls are everything I expected, and the buttons and joysticks feel top-notch. Overall, I don’t know why I’d bother purchasing an original Nintendo controller for twice the price. High recommended.
This was bought for me as a present. My girlfriend and I have been gaming using a joy con each, which has been fine up until I bought Rocket League.
As an ex-pc gamer, I know this game is incredibly hard to play competitively without a proper gaming controller. Enter Diswoe.
The controller has incredible build quality and feels ergonomic in my hands. Performing mad aerials in Rocket League is a breeze now and my gameplay has improved tenfold.
It also means I can spam “what a save” and “wow” when my opponents fail to make a basic save.
It’s so good my girlfriend now wants one too! Would happily buy one again and I’m very happy with my purchase.
Once we got it we set up and genuinely in no time was set up and they were playing mario kart!
Neither of them could really tell the difference and for the price difference this is definitely worth it. I’ve sat my self playing some mario with it and it was great! Build quality is near the same as the pro controller and battery has lasted a long while before needing a recharge too, it even has a usb c to recharge with!
Over all 5 stars all round!
I wanted to use it for my Nvidia Shield TV but it wasn’t compatible however, my kids have a Nintendo Switch and the original controllers are very flimsy and break easy.
I brought two of these controllers and found them easy to set up. They are strong so i have no doubt my kids wont damage these one’s and i like the rubbery grip a lot. Highly recommended for the Switch. i am going to order two more for family gatherings and parties. Thanks
I was extremely surprised at how well this 3rd party controller is made and performs for the price. The XABY buttons feel solid and respond well to the input commands. The dual sticks have the perfect amount of tension.
The wireless vibration controller is comfortable to hold. It’s simple to pair up with no need for installation of additional drivers. It’s probably the perfect weight for my health issues. The buttons respond quickly matching the speed of the official controller.
The design is a great mix of the PlayStation controller shape and the dual stick layout of the Xbox controller, in my opinion this is a clever design as both will be familliar to console and PC gamers alike. It’s seems to be made with high quality rubber. It has non slip grip handles which gives you more of a grip when you are playing that all important game.
The motion control works very well with compatible games such as Zelda Breath Of The Wild and I was surprised that it is included as the Diswoe is 50% cheaper than an official controller.
The battery is built into the controller. It charges using the USB cable suplied and a complete charge gives 8 hours of playtime. Unfortunately if you wish to charge & play at the same time the supplied USB lead is too short at under a metre in length. I believe that it is also worth mentioning that whilst this is a wireless controller it can’t turn the Switch on remotely.
We have yet to try this for the PC but as it is USB so I don’t see any issues with compatibility.
Overall I found this to be a comfortable & very well designed/made 3rd party controller which I will happily recommend to anyone looking for an official controller.
I received this controller for our Nintendo Switch.
The controller is comfortable to hold and feels more like a traditional controller instead of the smaller pads supplied. As an adult playing this console this is perfect for me!
The buttons have a good click to them and the directional heels are smooth.
I am unable to comment on the battery life as I’m still on my first charge, will edit the review after to show this.
Would I recommend ?! Yes I would.
This supremely-made 3rd-party Switch controller was cheap only in price. It paired in an instant, and was very responsive in the few games I tried it with. The plastic grips offer comfort for long play, and the rumble was surprisingly powerful. The built material is solid, and not what I’d come to expect from 3rd-party controllers. I have not yet got down to trying the motion controls or the Turbo, but from what I have seen so far, I’d be surprised if they weren’t equally impressive. Keeping in mind this is not the Nintendo Switch Pro controller and is at half the price, this has been a pleasant surprise all around, and a steal purchase at the price paid on Amazon’s Cyber Monday event. Definitely recommended.
I’ve been after a controller for the switch for a while but the cost of the 1st party Pro made me a little put off . This is damn good for the price a good feel to it , controls feel fluid and natural, the controller has a nice weight and the layout it’s as it should be. Rumble is nice and strong and the gyro controls work well . And all boxed nicely with a USB C cable . Bargai
The sticks respond well and buttons feel good to press. The reason it is 4 stars is due to poor battery life, an official pro controller lasts significantly longer without a charge than this controller, whereas this one lasts a few hours, which can be annoying having to plug it in in the middle of a game.
I will be buying another for my son for Christmas. For the price (half of the pro) it is an absolute must buy.
I just want to say that I was offered a voucher to leave a review however everything I’m about to write are my genuine thoughts.
As someone who doesn’t play their switch much I really debated whether to spend 20 (during a flash sale) on a controller when the joycons with the comfort grip are just fine
I saw the sale price and also wanted a second controller for the PC so thought it was worth going for. The controller feels really solid, has a nice weight to it and it’s a million times more comfortable than the joycons and yeah just feels good. I also use a PS3 controller but I find the analogue sticks too big and uncomfortable, these are just right. The triggers also have a nice dampening to them.
I don’t know how long the pro controller takes to sync, this one feels perhaps it takes a second or two longer than it should but it’s really no big deal.
The gyro motion sensors work for racing games etc. Not tested the battery life but I’ve not needed to charge it yet.
The cable isn’t long enough to charge whilst playing, that would be a nice bonus.
All in all I’m very happy with my purchase, I just hope it works on the PC. The box tells you it’s a cheaper product but the device itself feels premium and solid.
This controller is a fantastic, budget alternative to the official Nintendo Pro controller. I had a small issue when first trying to connect, I was trying to connect to tablet mode, but this issue was easily solved after connecting to the docked console via the included USB-C cable and now the controller connects wirelessly without any issue.
Comparing it to the Pro, this controller offers pretty much all the same features. Home & capture buttons which work perfectly well. There is even a ‘turbo’ button which I admittedly haven’t found much use for yet, however, I can imagine it coming in handy with some of the NES/SNES games that are playable on the switch.
The only things missing from the controller are the NFC reader for use with Amiib’s as well as a button to switch it off that is on the Pro but the latter is such a minor thing I’m only really mentioning it for completeness’ sake. Tha lack of NFC might be a problem for some, but for most people I can’t imagine it would be a huge issue, given the console already has the function built into the Joy-Cons
As for ergonomics, the controller is around the same size as the Pro and the texture on the handles I find actually offer more grip. The sticks are a little firmer too, however, this wouldn’t really be all that noticeable without both controllers in hand.
All in all, if you’re looking to get a more traditional controller for your Switch, or just want more for family/friends to use, then you can’t really go wrong here. Everything the Pro controller offers (barring NFC) is here but it comes at half the price. I highly recommend if you want some extra controllers to offer for gaming.
Bought this for my son’s Switch. Seems to do the job, and is good quality for the money.
The only slight issue (and hence why only 4/5) are the instructions – if you follow their pairing instructions it will never pair to the Switch. Unfortunately, I can’t remember the instructions (sorry!) but a quick search with your favourite search engine will find it [it may even be in theses reviews too]
If I was to describe it’s size I would say it’s closer to a PS4 controller than an Xbox One controller (see photo).
Ergonomically feels good and long gaming sessions do not feel uncomfortable.
Battery life seems good but I am in the early days of the product so can’t comment on long term.
Compared to another (wired) third party switch controller I have, I am very impressed with this controller and would recommend it.
Update 30.01.2020: Plugged it into my computer today with a usb-c cable, and it recognised it as an xbox 360 controller. This was great as it meant no setup was needed to use it in games, because the computer sees it as an xbox 360 controller. So this controller is good for pc use as well! (Note that the buttons are flipped on an xbox controller, (ie a and b swapped), so the button prompts in PC games wont match the button placement on the controller. If, like me, you have used an xbox pad before, this wont be an issue).
My controller just came in, and early, which was a nice surprise! upon taking it out the packaging I noticed how nicely wrapped it all was, and the texture of the controller feels really sleek. the design overall is really clean and the buttons feel nice to press, the grips are comfortable and it feels natural holding.
I genuinely love how this controller looks, the colours are a really great touch. If I ever need any more switch controllers, I’m definitely getting this one again!
Elated with this product, honestly better than I expected! Would give this 5 stars, really good option if you need another controller.
The controller was lightly used for a couple of days but today when I cam to turn it on it didn’t light up. I thought the battery was flat so put it on charge but an hour later and it’s still dead. I tried to contact the seller through Amazon but got a message saying that they are unable to receive emails! Will see if the seller responds to my review and offers a replacement!
Well the seller did get in touch and was extremely apologetic. I was sent a replacement device the very next day and this one works perfectly. So despite the issue with original item I thought I should update my review to comment on the excellent customer service. Thanks very much.
I bought this for my children to use with the Nintendo Switch. I asked my older son to use it as he is an expert on all kinds of joysticks and let me know how good it is. He gave Diswoe Joystick 10 out of 10 after he used it to play two games: Fortnight and Brawhalla. He really loved it and found it better than the original Nintendo Switch one. He said it was very responsive, light, and the buttons are nice to use. I absolutely therefore recommend this product.
The motion control feature works well with compatible software like Zelda BOTW and again i was surprised that this was included as this is half the price of the official Nintendo Pro Controller.
Charging the controller is done via the USB cable suplied and a full charge will give you around 8 hours of playtime. I must add though that if you want to play and charge at the same time,the supplied USB cable that came with the controller is way too short at under a metre in length.Please be aware also that whilst this is a wireless remote controller it does not turn the Switch on remotely as i discovered when playing with the Switch docked for TV play, so you will still have to manually press the home button on the portable Switch screen controls. You can however use the controller remotely to play games as normal whilst the Switch is undocked should you so wish.
Overall, and a couple niggles aside, i found this to be a comfortable and extremely well designed/made 3rd party controller which i would happily recommend to anyone looking for an alternative to the official Nintendo Pro Controller.
I was reluctant at first (before ordering) – a bit scared of potential pairing issues and overall quality but decided to give it a try since it is 50% cheaper than the Nintendo version. They look good and feel good when playing.
I am very pleased with it (and I have ordered a second one). Pairing is very easy; no different to a nintendo controller. I have used them for a month now and they have been flawless so far.
I would recommend them.
The controller feels comfy to hold. Not too light. The buttons respond as quickly as the official controller.
Haven’t tried this on my PC yet but as it’s USB I can’t see how this wouldn’t work.
Probably going to buy a couple more of these for my kids and hide the official one so it doesn’t get their grubby fingers on it.
After looking for a gaming controller for my Nintendo switch, i had a choice of either this or the Pro controller. Where the pro controller was quite expensive, this was almost half the price of it. The reviews seem pretty good, so i took a chance and purchased it, if it didnt work on the switch, i could still use it on my gaming PC .
It arrived and following the easy to follow instructions, i paired the controller with the switch and started playing a few games that i had been playing with included joycons. My scores have increased, I’ve got better at fortnite, sometimes even coming 1st where as before i was struggling to get into the top 20..
Amazing controller, I highly recommend this controller.
I didn’t want to spend loads on a official Nintendo one so decided I would give this a go as after reading the description it offered everything that the other one did.
This is a wireless vibration controller which was so easy to pair up and you don’t have to install any additional drivers.
It’s the same as the official Nintendo controller with all the buttons, the look and style.
It’s looks like it has been made with high quality rubber and have the non slip grip handles which gives you more of a grip when you are playing that important fortnite game.
The controller has a build in battery which takes approx 2 to 3 hours to charge giving you a nice 5 hours gaming time.
Can’t really tell the difference between the two.
