In this part of the video, the presenter introduces three handheld gaming devices with detachable controllers: the Nintendo Switch, the 1X Player 2, and the Lenovo Legion Go. He emphasizes the versatility and enhanced usability these detachable controllers provide. He notes that unlike the 1X Player 2, the Lenovo Legion Go’s controllers can work independently because they have built-in batteries. The presenter then highlights a custom-made 3D-printed connector by Joshua Co, which allows the Lenovo Legion Go controllers to be used in a more ergonomic, traditional controller configuration. He purchased these connectors himself, spending around $54 in total, and is now testing them to check their functionality and value.

In this part of the video, the presenter tests the first Legion Go controller connector, explaining its setup and usage. They highlight the clear labeling of left (L) and right (R) on the top of the connector, which is helpful for correct attachment. Upon connecting, the presenter notes that while there was no audible click on one side, the connector securely snapped into place, providing a solid fit without needing pogo pins.
The connector seems well-built, with dense, sturdy plastic, and feels ergonomic in hand, providing a comfortable gaming experience. Despite its robust construction, it doesn’t fit inside the Legion Go case, though a smaller version compatible with the case will be tested later. The presenter is pleased with the quality and ergonomics, especially for users with larger hands. They then move on to test a triangle-shaped connector designed to angle the controllers differently for varied ergonomic comfort.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses the assembly and ergonomic differences of different controller attachments. They describe the process of connecting the left and right parts, noting the ease of not having to guess the proper sides. They compare the ergonomics of a straight-on attachment versus one that angles the wrists differently, mentioning that while the angled one might not be their favorite, it could be beneficial for certain games and users. The speaker appreciates the lighter weight and high quality of the angled attachment despite preferring the straight-on version. Next, they introduce a cross-shaped connector, highlighting its larger, wider design and lighter weight due to less material. They note the comfort and ergonomic hand position provided by this wider attachment.

In this segment of the video, the presenter discusses the advantages of a hollow, lightweight controller, comparing its width and feel to standard Xbox and DualSense controllers. The presenter highlights the ergonomic design and comfortable hand positioning. Additionally, they test a small, portable connector by fitting it inside a Legion Go case, confirming its portability and successful fit.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses the fitting of a specific connector inside the FPS connector spot, highlighting its compatibility and neat fit without protruding. The speaker expresses excitement about the connectors, mentions they are self-purchased, and provides the price details ($14.85 each plus shipping, and $122.85 for a smaller one). They suggest that those with 3D printers can print their own but appreciate Joshua Consan Sailor’s contribution to the community by making these available for purchase. The video concludes with the speaker inviting viewers to comment, subscribe, and engage, while they enjoy using their new connector.
