> 3 dayThe case is well-built. Its a bit bulky and large, but thats the rub when trying to support huge third party joy cons like the Split Pad Pro and Binboks. One thing I didnt see clarified is that the gamecard slots are stitched to the bottom, theyre not a flap like the pouch is. The case will only protect against bumps and maybe short drops since its not hard, but of its style it seems decently rigid with a nice soft material on the inside. The pouch while definitely appreciated cant hold very much, dont expect to put a charger or even a decent length USB-C cable in there. Also worth noting it has a bit of a smell right out of the packaging, but I imagine itll fade with time. These do fit the Binboks nearly perfectly, theres a little wiggle room on all 4 sides but only barely. The joysticks even fit into the cases bumps for them perfectly. With the Binboks it seems its best to have the pouch underneath rather than on top, since the screen is nearly flush with the lid unlike the Hori controllers. Also since the screen is flush this probably doesnt provide as much shock protection to the front of the screen as it would with the Horis, so youll want to be a little more careful. Cant really fault Butterfox though since the case wasnt made for the Binboks. Overall very satisfied with the case. It wont 100% replace my slim Tomtoc case when portability is the primary concern, but as a more convenient way to keep larger joy cons on hand its hard to beat.

> 3 dayAfter watching the YouTube Channel “It Came From A Box” about this case, I went in head first and bought it through their link. I have also watched “Satisfye’s” channel coz they mentioned too that the Elite Pro Bundle bag for the OG Switch also fits the Switch with the Hori split pad pros. And being also a believer in Satisfye’s products (have both Elite Bundles for the OG Switch and Lite), I did try it but it puts some pressure on the split pad pros in 2 ways, going inwards (meaning from left and right going to the Switch tablet), and also on the ZR and ZL triggers going upwards, due to the top part mould of Satisfye’s bag. It’s doable”, but really not ideal. So after receiving this case by Butterfox, I immediately tested it and by far, it is just moulded exactly in the shape of a Switch with the split pad pros on. No unnecessary pressure anywhere on the Switch, and on any of the buttons, face up and top bumpers and triggers. Perfect!... well, almost. Like the other reviews mentioned below, the size and shape of it is spot on, and I can attest to it. Like literally no play (which is a good thing) as your device fits in it like a well fitted glove. But also like the other reviews on this, a few gripes, which I think is very important. 1. It is not as sturdy as many would hope for. If any of you have bought the Tomtoc slim case for the OG Switch, now that’s hard and tough! Cannot compare it with Skull&Co’s, cannot compare it with Satisfye’s, or Mumba’s, or Bioniks cases or bags. If I somehow found a way to drop that Tomtoc slim case on my face, I’d probably get a shiner for it. I’d wish this Butterfox case was as sturdy and semi-rigid as that case. Then I could give the sturdiness a full 10 out of 5. Easy to hold? Well not exactly. And this poses 2 major issues. One, since its not as sturdy and rigid as many would hope for, most wouldn’t take the risk of this getting squished in a packed backpack or any bag for that matter (unless for bags that has a bit of hard or semi-hardshell compartment, like a System-G backpack). So in that case (no pun intended), if one might carry this by hand, the second issue is there’s no optional wrist strap attachment, no handles (like the Satisfye, Skull&Co, and Bionik has), and no option for a shoulder strap (like Satisfye and Bionik has). So best of luck running around the city with this clutched on one hand or under an arm, coz it will fall, and since it’s not AS sturdy as mentioned above, you’ll have to have some luck coz you’re gonna need it. But is it a good case for the Switch with Split Pad Pros, well yes, kind of... its the only option we have at the time of this writing (20th June 2020). But it can be better. Make it as tough, rigid and as protective as a Tomtoc slim case, put a collapsible, securely stiched, easy to hold handle, put a separate ring for a wrist attachment jig, put a pair of D rings securely stitched to the bottom of the case for a shoulder strap (bottom, not top) to make it easy to get to the device while its on your shoulder, a deeper underside compartment to store a slim power bank, and you would have gotten yourself a killer product indeed. Not that it’s not great as it is, but it can always be better. PS. I’m a person who’s always moving around alot, so I need to think in advance and consider different use-cases (pun intended) for anything I think worth investing on, coz you’ll never know when you actually need a feature, up until you’re in “that spot” and think... “gosh, I wish I had thought of that sooner” situation. So my opinions may differ (to each his own, right). But if you are buying this thing, to keep the dust bunnies away from your device, it’s slick, its a no brainer. Fits amazing <period> <full stop>
