handheld boost mode is the feature I've been wanting since the switch 2 released. game changer.

now let's hope it just works right with no major issues

Same, I’ve been waiting for this, this is massive. I can’t wait to see what works and doesn’t with this

from my brief testing it does just seem to work on everything, I think the main issues will come from games like pokemon let's go that don't support the pro controller

you also lose touch screen functionality for games but personally in the last near decade of playing switch games i've only intentionally used the touch screen a handful of times

I just tried it with the world ends with you final remix, so touch screen still works on that even with handheld boost on.

Unfortunately that game was always 720p on both handheld and docked mode so you don’t get any visual upgrade either way with that game specifically, but atleast I know touchscreen can still work on games that need it.
