It costs you nothing extra, and it has not changed what this article says — where a competitor is the better answer, we say so. The first surprise is the packaging. The NYXI Hyperion 2 arrives in a fitted plastic container that almost feels like a controller accessory itself. Then I take the actual halves out and get to the part I want to try: how they feel attached to the Switch. ## Lights and removable covers I turn the controllers on, try the lighting modes and look over the buttons. They have a clicky feel, and there are rear buttons as well as the familiar controls around the front. The magnetic covers pull off and snap back into place. I like the possibility of changing the look without replacing the whole controller. ## The attached shape is the big difference With both halves fitted to my Switch, the grip feels much fuller than a flat-sided handheld. I bring over a Steam Deck to compare the general shape and explain why that extra contour feels comfortable to me. I also mention the connection trouble I have had with my existing Switch setup. This quick fitting session does not prove a long-term repair for that issue, and I do not run a full game or drift test here. ## Can it still go in the dock? I try the console in the dock with the Hyperion 2 attached, and it physically fits in this setup. That is a useful check because some of my other attached accessories get in the way. I do not measure charging or establish fit for every dock variant. My separate [NYXI Warrior first look]() explores a different controller design. This one is about the Switch's attached grip and the hardware controls I can try immediately. NYXI sent the Hyperion 2 for the video.
