I have a Pro 2. It's the best controller I've ever used. It's so thoughtfully designed, right down to being able to slide open the rechargeable battery cover and use 2 AA batteries instead in a pinch.
What is the battery life on it? My Switch Pro lasts forever but I also have a PS5 and the Anbernic and they seem to die in like 20 hours.
I'm not sure, maybe 10 hours? 15? I've never kept track. It can also work while simultaneously charging by USB-C from a wall plug or a power bank. That's good enough for my needs, either at home or while travelling. I'm just happy to have a hall-effect cross-platform gamepad that's super-comfortable.
My only complaint is that it can't wake up a sleeping Switch. But it's no big deal to keep a Nintendo-blessed controller on the coffee table for that.
15 isn't bad. I don't really over go over 2 hours in a single session so maybe I'm just being spoiled lol.
And yeah the PS5 one also works while charging. That's a nice feature.
