This controller works great so far, looks super cool, and was a reasonable price. It comes with a lot of different options for programming, but I just use standard features.

The ergonomic design fits perfectly in my hands, making long gaming sessions more comfortable. The button layout is intuitive and responsive, providing precise control and an enhanced gaming experience. The wireless connectivity is seamless, with NO noticeable lag, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted gameplay.
One of the standout features is the customizable back paddles, which add a new level of control and convenience. I love being able to map additional functions to these paddles, giving me a competitive edge in my favorite games. The controller also boasts an impressive battery life, allowing for extended play without the need for frequent recharging.
While it may be slightly more expensive than other third-party controllers, the build quality and added features make it worth the investment. If you’re looking for a high-quality, versatile controller to elevate your Nintendo Switch gaming, the PDP Wave Enhanced Wireless Nintendo Switch Pro Controller is an excellent choice. I highly recommend it!

And despite not loving PDP controllers in the past, this one works fairly well.
The controller body has decent weight and does not have any creaks while twisting or pressing. The texture is very light and feels great in the hand. There is no rumble/vibration in the controller.
It pairs to the switch easily (no disconnection issues) and turns the console on from sleep.
The thumbsticks work very well, there is no deadzone or snapping along an axis, and they feel smooth while playing. ABXY buttons feel responsive, as do the trigger buttons, and are only very slightly on the spongy side - after a bit of playing though they felt good to use. The two back buttons are in a good location to be able to press while playing, although for various fighting games I did notice myself accidentally hitting them from time to time. The D-pad is a little bit spongy however it worked well enough for the fighting games that I play.
Battery life does depend on the LEDs but I was able to play 6+ hours before needing a recharge. Since I love the LEDs, I did not test how long it would last without the lighting on.
I do wish that the ABXY buttons also lit up but they do not.
The controller feels a bit above what third party controllers typically are and is certainly usable.
