OFFCUP Blue Joy-Con Charging Grip for Nintendo Switch/OLED, V-Shaped USB-C Handle

Some buyers want a way to charge Joy-Con controllers between sessions, others would rather keep playing while they charge. This OFFCUP grip is designed to do both, turning the controllers into a handheld-style grip as well.

Its V-shaped handle is made from double-injection ABS and comes in blue. A USB-C cable is included for charging.

The key detail for planning your setup is that the Joy-Con controllers are not included. Is combining a grip and charger more useful than charging separately? That depends on whether you want to hold the controllers while they charge.

At a glance

This is a charging grip for Nintendo Switch and Switch OLED Joy-Con controllers. Slide the controllers onto the rails, then connect the grip to a power source with the included cable. The stated input is 5V 1A, and the grip is intended to let you play while the controllers charge.

The V-shaped handle gives the Joy-Con a more joined, conventional controller-style shape. That makes it a different approach from a charging stand: the focus here is holding the controllers during play, rather than simply placing them somewhere to charge. The product details also describe five-volt PD and PTC overcurrent protection, though no further charging times are provided.

Usage tips

Fit each Joy-Con along its rail, then connect the USB-C cable to the grip and a power source. The indicator uses red to show charging and green to indicate a full charge, so you can check its status at a glance. The supplied package lists one charging grip and one Type-C cable, it does not list Joy-Con controllers.

For a setup with more than one pair of controllers, bear in mind that the description does not specify how many Joy-Con can be charged at once. It is safer to plan around the grip as a charging handle for the controllers fitted to it, rather than assuming it replaces a multi-controller charging dock.

Everyday use

The practical appeal is that charging need not mean putting the controllers aside. At home, the grip can serve as the holding point for a playing session while the Joy-Con are connected to power, its compact, lightweight design is also described as suitable for travel. It makes sense if you want one accessory to combine a more joined-up grip shape with charging, rather than buying a separate handle and charging stand for those tasks.

Buyer feedback generally highlights comfortable handling and useful charging, including the ability to keep playing. Some buyers also value having another controller-style setup for friends. These are customer impressions rather than a guarantee of fit or comfort for every player, so the V-shaped design is best judged against the way you prefer to hold Joy-Con.

Practical questions

Does it include Joy-Con controllers? No. The listed contents are one charging grip and one Type-C cable, so you need to supply the controllers separately.

Can you play while the controllers charge? The product is designed for simultaneous play and charging, with the battery continuing to charge during use.

What do the indicator colours mean? Red indicates that the Joy-Con is charging, green indicates that it is fully charged.

Is it worth it?

This accessory is most relevant if you already own compatible Joy-Con and want them to form a V-shaped grip while charging, without stopping play. The ABS construction, colour and compact design give a clear picture of the format, but the description does not provide charging times or a stated number of controllers that can charge at once. Choose it for the combined grip-and-charge role, if you only need a place to charge controllers, a simpler stand may suit that narrower task better.
