FYOUNG [Updated] Hand Grip Compatible with Nintendo 2DS XL with 1 Stylus and 1 Clear Case Compatible with Nintendo 2DS XL

Years ago, I bought a similar model to this but it was big and clunky. This one, however, feels like it has a regular controller profile. It feels very similar to my Switch Pro Controller, but just for my New 2DS XL. I was confused at first because it said it's a 3-piece set (clear top guard, ergonomic grip, and stylus), and I assumed the stylus would be similar to the OEM from Nintendo but thought it had fallen out of my box or just didn't ship - I'm glad I looked around because it's stealthily hidden in the left hand grip! LOVE that design, so that the stylus always stays with the grip! I do think that the plastic lip on the stylus is machined a little big and makes it really hard to pull out of the grip, but that would be my only fault for the product. It fits my hands well and makes it comfortable, it allows for access to the game card slot (older models did not), and it comes with a protective top shell AND a built-in stylus. I love it and highly recommend this product for the New 2DS XL.

I love this grip. I never got the first iteration of it because I recently got the 2ds Xl. I mainly got this version because I have all physical games, and I can't see taking off the grip Everytime to switch a game. This is open all through the bottom so that's not a problem. I also do love the angles of the handles. I have somewhat big hands, and it really does feel like a comfortable controller and really helps when playing games like Mario Kart, and also games like the Tony Hawk Series. Strangely enough I seem to take it off when playing side scrolls like Rayman, New Super Mario Bros, Donkey Kong etc. Before using it, just from looking at pictures, I thought the kickstand was kind of gimmicky, assuming no one is going to be watching Netflix on this. I have found use out of it the first day when playing Bloons Tower Defense on break at work. I was able to set it up with the kickstand and easily use the touchscreen while seeing everything, as opposed to it being flat on the table with no viewing angle. Also, for some reason they sent me a back clear cover instead of the front one advertised. Doesn't make much sense since the grip covers the back, but I have a front and back cover from a different purchase. So it wasn't a big deal to me personally. The stylus is also really hard to pull out. I have short fingernails so I had a tough time, but it's basically the same exact stylus that comes with the 2ds. It's the same small size, so if you have the original stylus it shouldn't be a big deal since the bottom is open and the regular one is always accessible. I don't want to take a star away for the tough stylus because if you have the original there is no need for it. I also don't want to take a star away for sending the back cover instead of the front because I think that might have just been a shipping mistake, not a faulty product. Ive only had it for 2 days as of this review, so I can't speak on the clips that hold it together. Some people say the clips snap off real easily. I have been real careful with it (as I am with all my electronics) so I haven't had any problems with those. Time will tell. If at any point they do snap I will update this review to see how long it lasted. For the price, I would definitely pick this up if you get hand cramps or seem to re adjust your hands a lot when playing the DS. It's definitely worth it.

I have to say this product is worth it. It's much better than holding the 3DS without it. It has easily extended my possible play time by at least an hour. But that being said, it doesn't magically make the 2DSXL super comfortable for those with larger hands or longer fingers.It's also true that it comes off easily, but when you're holding it and playing it, there's no need to worry about it. If you tossed this into a loosely packed bag, the grip may come off.The top she'll protector is actually really nice, the lip of the shell meets the 2ds so perfectly and smoothly it's like it's not even there. Highly underrated part of this product.The included stylus is an exact copy of the nintendo one but of much lower quality. It works, but there's no reason to use it unless you lost the oem one. You can swap them out if you prefer the stylus to be on the grip even.If you're an adult who wants to catch up on 3DS games, I highly recommend getting this or any other grip. Even the XL system is painful to hold after even 30 mins of light gaming (like an rpg or slower game). This one is certainly worth the money and has made gaming on 2dsxl much more comfortable.
