> 3 dayI think that when you review something, you have to explain where youre coming from so that others know whether your perspective matches theirs. So about me... I personally feel like the Xbox One controller is very comfortable. I have muscle memory built up for it and that style is where Im going to immediately feel the most comfortable. The stock Switch Lite hurt my hands (medium size) and cramped my right hand. It was to the point that Ive bought and sold various Switch devices a few times over the years. Ill get excited for a game and hope that Im amplifying the discomfort that I remember. Maybe this time it wont be so bad. But its always that bad and its just a bad design. This time I decided that Im going to figure this whole comfort thing out because the device itself is cool and Id really like to enjoy it. I started with a wrap-around case with small grips on the bottom. This type of case is very common and costs around $10. The grips on the bottom provide a place for your fingers to rest, but dont do anything for ergonomics beyond that. Your hand still cramps up and you still have to claw the right side. As I researched it further, I found that people keep recommending the Satisfye grip and were saying that its the best. So I sucked it up and bought this $50 kit. Its worth noting that you can buy just the grip for around $25, but then you dont have a case that everything will fit in without taking the grip off. The Satisfye case solves this and is molded to fit the grip and Switch along with room for some extras. To me this was worth the extra $25. After having experienced it, I dont regret stepping up a bit in cost to get the case. Its pretty much perfect except that there isnt room to fit both the Switch and the stock charger. You can easily fit a smaller power brick though, so thats a consideration. Now for the grip itself. You can summarize it by saying that it fixes everything that a grip really can be expected to fix. It truly eliminates the hand strain that you experience with just the Switch on its own. The right side of the grip is extended slightly so that your thumb is resting on the analog stick in a natural position. This is awesome! The build quality is nice, and if youve used a cheaper grip, youll immediately notice that the Satisfye grip is high quality. It feels solid and doesnt have that 3D Printed feel that many accessories do. I didnt buy this for the thumb caps, but decided to try them anyway. They create a little bit of extra length on the sticks and also add a slightly concave surface. Definitely better than the sticks by themselves. I can finally play a FPS without relying so heavily on gyro controls. This is awesome and is exactly what I was hoping for. With all of that said, there are still a few things that arent perfect. These are not the fault of the grip itself and are more about some shortcomings of the Switch. Here are a few that the grip wont fix: - The Face Buttons are just in a bad place on the Switch. Using the grip actually makes them a bit harder to reach than before. Swapping quickly from the right analog stick to the B Button is awkward and will take some getting used to. This is especially noticeable in fast-paced games like shooters. Even though the grip kind of makes reaching these buttons harder, Im not docking any stars from the grip itself. Nintendos design forces you to pick between more easily reaching the buttons or fixing the comfort of the right analog stick. Ill pick fixing that stick. - The analog sticks themselves dont feel amazing. This is due to a very strange mechanism that Nintendo decided to use for detecting movement within the analog module. It leaves the analog sticks feeling both too sensitive and not sensitive enough all at the same time. I think that this is partially because there is not enough resistance when youre moving the stick. Its also because the sensors that track movement arent especially accurate. Again, not the fault of the grip, and if anything the grip gives you more control which helps to balance this a bit. So in summary, the grip brings us much much closer to the feel of a Xbox One controller. However it doesnt overcome the Face Button placement or the crappy analog sticks that Nintendo chose to use. So dont expect this grip to suddenly make the Switch equal to a Xbox One controller. But it does solve the hand cramping, and I think that I can adjust to the rest of it. It makes the console into something that I can actually keep and use. On a cosmetic note, before purchasing I had wished that Satisfye made the grip available in different colors. White is not usually my first choice when there are other options. I think Id still rather have it match the console (I have the gray one), but its not as off-putting as I had expected. It properly matches the buttons and analog sticks and looks like it belongs with the console. Ive ultimately rated this Five Stars because I feel that it fixes everything that you would expect a good grip to fix.

Greater than one weekDurable and comfortable grip. Makes playing for long periods of time much easier. Case is a bit bulky but made with quality materials that should last the test of time. Can not fit original switch lite power brick in case though. Only a small external battery bank. Not a deal breaker... But still.

> 3 dayIf you are on the fence about this let me say it’s worth it. I love pretty much everything that came with the bundle. The case is sturdy and fits almost everything. The grip feels great and with my bigger hands extends my play time. It sets you up nicely with a side ways charger cable and also it even comes with analog grips that feel great! 10/10 love satisfy and if I ever get another switch down the road I know what I am buying.

> 3 dayI honestly cant play my switch lite without this grip. I will be upgrading to a regular switch soon, and will be buying a Satisfye grip for it as well. It makes playing my switch even more comfortable than holding an xbox or playstation controller. Unbelievably awesome.
