My biggest issue with the third party joycon is that they don't have feature parity with the official Nintendo ones. You are always giving something up for "Made for human hands" ergonomics.
I own a Skull Co grip but don't use it often because of the docking incompatibility.
The biggest game changer for me was adding thumbstick caps. They make the thumbsticks feel so much better.
I don't have many complaints now about the ergonomics of the system in handheld. I've settled on a decently comfortable grip where I rest the bottom outside edges on the system (the outer curve of the JoyCons) in my palms.
Occasionally I'll start to feel the numbness creeping into my arms but then I flex my arms and hands for a moment to alleviate it.
I can play run after run of Hades this way in relative comfort.
I am not sure if I understood correctly, is the Binbok in the OP not the same as the one you linked to, https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B08NPF99GK ?As someone who has/had tried all the options from OP plus also this one:

I have to say that the best option by far is the Binbok joycon from the OP, the smaller one from the link I posted is much worse.

What do you think of the S1 Fixture? (if you have a pro Controller)This is why i haven't gone to any third party solution aside of the original hori joycon
You either give up HD rumble or gyro, in some cases, both.
So i'm looking for a decent grip, the joycons are too uncomfortable for my big hands.

Added: ah, I see some difference at least in the buttons at the bottom. What makes one version good but the other not?
It's a bit too heavy but it's overall pretty good. The clip is very sturdy and the switch slides into it.I think I would actually really like the Fixture S1 but I couldn't find those in Europe and I don't wanna pay twice what it costs just because of shipping. How are they in terms of comfortability though? While the Switch without controllers isn't exactly overly heavy, the weight probably still does affect how comfortable it is over a period of a few hours.
This is more like a cell phone grip. Fixture slides in more like regular joycon.Sounds like a very decent alternative, i'm getting used to play like this with my phone and the MOGA grip.
I have to see if it's available here in spain
EDIT: Ah, found this in Amazon

You can easily adjust the angle and the height so can find a comfortable position. Can always use a pillow or something if it's too heavy. That said, not sure if I would get it for much more than MSRP.
So overall I recommend it if you have the Pro Controller, but wouldn't pay more than say $40 for it.
Well, even in US it's about $35, not including taxes. So if you can score it for €40ish including VAT, that isn't too bad.Yeah that does sound good. Will definitely try to grab one whenever I can find one in Europe but so far the only place I've found is Amazon where I'd also have to pay massive shipping fees. I don't think I'll actually be able to get it for less than 40 dollars.

That's not too bad if it's with the case. $35 was without one.I think I can get it from the Indiegogo campaign still where I can buy it and the case for 41 Euro + 17 Euro shipping fee so that doesn't look too bad. Might have to bite on that.
Any single-joycon based grip designs?
I would like to be able to dock my switch and detach my joycons on demand like the default configuration, but would also like a bit more ergonomics... I haven't found a solution for this, which is shocking.
Skull co grip docking incompatibility? What do you mean? Mine fits in the dock fine?
I stick the switch screen in this, and use the pro controller. I have rsi and arthritis in my hands, so using the joycons attached causes serious pains.
The Hori site had some different all black ones without Daemon Ex Machina brandingHori Split Pad Pro all the way. I don't mind the lack of rumble, etc. It feels so much more comfortable than the Joy-Cons. Yeah it's an ugly color scheme and I wish they'd just made the whole thing black, but oh well.
Can the binbok split controllers power in the switch? Biggest downside to all 3rd party controllers.As someone who has/had tried all the options from OP plus also this one:

Also, if anyone wants a case for their Switch with a split pad pro, this thing fits great:

Yeah I saw those actually. I think they came out after I bought mine :/The Hori site had some different all black ones without Daemon Ex Machina branding
Do they sell Binbok controller in AU? I think it's more comfortable vs Split Pad, and has rumble/gyro. Have one in order so it should come in in couple of weeks but it's been pretty well reviewed so far... With some QC issues.Man this thread is having me go back and forth on a grip case or the Hori Split Pad. The Split Pad is so expensive here in Australia ($80-99) so going without rumble and gyro is a bit of a stretch on top of the massive size. With that said, they do still seem a way better option than the default Joy Cons which destroy my hands within an hour.
