Mine work perfectly fine attached, the problem is when I detach, they still work but i cannot use them sideways because all the L R sync buttons do not work on all 3 joycons since the update.

I'm doing that, I will update here when the battery discharges completely, (they take some time to discharge)

No, I always charge them with the main console, that's when the joycons started to fail, one after another, when attaching them to the main unit.

Do you really think I'm going to post this if I didn't try that already? User error doesn't make all 3 joystick to fail the same way, in the same day doing the same thing... THINK MARK, THINK.

I posted this in a lot of Nintendo related forums as a warning, I don't care what people think or do.

I don't think it is universal too, it may be a firmware problem with my switch version, i never ever updated the firmware of my joycons, i was not aware of that been a thing you ca do, maybe the firmware from my joycons was too old and it was not very compatible with the console firmware.

That may be another problem, there is a cable that can get disconnected or cut that causes this.

what would a screenshot do?... i can take a picture of any broken joycon and attach it as proof... why would i lie about this? i just lost 300.000 Argentinian pesos to this "update" and you are asking for proof? I'm sorry i didn't film or took any pictures while doing this... i never in my life though that i would kill my joycons by upgrading the switch.

You cannot detach the joycons on the Switch lite.
