I've had my mobpad joycons for about a year now and I gotta say, at first I had doubts. I thought there's no way a company in this modern era could be so universally beloved without writing half their own reviews or some other tomfoolery. But. I bought a pair. And yeah. They're actually that good. I went from hardly using my switch to playing it on handheld every day. I've finished a bunch of games that were previously just sitting in my library. I tuck it in my lunch box and play balatro and animal crossing on my breaks. The console feels new to me again. The design is very ergonomic and my big hands never get tired from holding it. The joysticks don't even flirt with the concept of drifting. The D-pad's weird dollar-shaped yellow pad is actually genius. It's so good I don't really believe the mobapad CAN be meaningfully improved. It's what the default experience SHOULD be. The only negative-ish thing I can think of is that the swappable face-plate is kinda dumb, at least for the H6S version? Like, I can make them both purple or blue, but you can't swap the back plates so you'll always have 1/4 the wrong colour. I don’t get it. Must be for marketing. It makes it real easy to spray the plates with automotive paint if you want to have a custom colour, however. In terms of my experience with the company...they were fine. I paid 10$ extra for a switch case because these joycons are of a size that they can't go in a regular case, but they forgot it and I just kinda let that one slide. In my defense their website looked shady and I was just relieved to receive 9/10s of my investment at the time. Shipping was fast, packaging was good. Would recommend.
