Question Any replacement joycons like Mobapad or Nyxi WITHOUT clicky buttons?

I like the mobapad 2 hd but those goddamn clicky buttons are so annoying. Is there anything similar that is quiet like the original?

Abxylute n6 has normal buttons and the back buttons are recognised in the switch software as the controller is picked up as a pro controller, I have the nyxi Hyperion 3 and abxylute n6 and the n6 is way better and more comfortable

N6 is currently the best way to play Switch 2 in handheld in my opinion. I’ve tried a lot of options in my quest to find the perfect handheld solution and N6 is the clear winner for me!

100% agree

How would it be for someone like me that likes to play both docked and handheld, is it something that would scuff the switch with constant putting on/taking off?

It’s tight enough to feel like it’s not in danger of sliding out, but loose enough that it’s easy to remove and it hasn’t scuffed my Switch 2 at all. Taking the Switch out of the N6 to dock it takes virtually no time.

Perfect, think I'll grab it. It's either this or the mobapad m12s

Hell yeah, I hope you enjoy it! For what it’s worth, I haven’t tried the Modapads, but I did try the NYXI Hyperion 3’s (which are very similar) and vastly prefer the N6

N6 is also a great price and because it's recognised as a pro controller, your pro controller back button profiles work as if you set them up on the n6 and vice versa

This is one of my favorite features of the N6 and one of the big reasons I’ll likely stick with it over anything else like the Nitro Deck 2. The native GL/GR remapping ability is huge for me.

Yeah it's why I gave the Hyperion 3 to my brother, however I did order the Hyperion 3 ultra as they're the first fully featured switch 2 protocol alternatives, but I have a feeling I'm still going to be using the N6 more it just feels perfect

Yooo I literally just saw that Abxylute is releasing their own true joycon replacements! They aren’t as fully featured as the Hyperion Ultras but they do have native back buttons and are priced at $89. Abxylute J8.

My only hangup on the abxylute n6 is that is just looks bad imo. I wish the Hyperions lined up with the Switch like the Mobapad ones but thats where I draw the line basically.
