Xbox One Controller Joystick Replacement - 6PCS Original Thumbsticks Analog Thumb Sticks Parts - True Rubberized with T8 T6 Repair Screwdriver Kit for Xbox One Controller

The original rubber was worn off and torn on my Xbox controller so I got these. They fit right in perfectly and seem exactly like the original sticks. The tools included worked great for disassembly and re-assembly which was also pretty simple. Zero problems, good product.

Apparently it is a pretty common issue with Xbox One controllers for the rubber to wear off or break off the ends of the two joysticks on Xbox One controllers. The joysticks are still usable when the rubberized tip comes off, but my son complained that it was harder to play. One of the joysticks on both controllers was messed up. These seem like a perfect fit and, when installed, the joysticks now work just like the originals. My son plays Xbox constantly and said they worked good as new. You do have to take apart the controller to replace these. You can watch Youtube! videos on how to do it. Replacing them is very easy EXCEPT removing two plastic covers on the controller. Those are not held on by screws but held on by plastic tabs. They take some working to get them off as you are trying to be careful not to break anything. After doing one controller, it was significantly easier to do the next. I didn't break any of the plastic tabs on either of the controllers. I was careful, but the plastic tabs must be less fragile than you would think. The kit comes with two plastic tools for removing those aforementioned plastic covers as well as the torx tool needed to remove 5 screws that have to be removed to replace the joysticks. Videos show this, but there is one screw behind a sticker under the battery compartment. I was able to do the repair using nothing but what the kit provided. This saved me money from having to buy new controllers and these joysticks really do work as good as new. Again, doing this is NOT hard, but it does take some work and patience to remove the plastic covers (to allow you to get to the screws). The tools that come with the kit make that easier. Removing the screws to get off the top cover of the controller and removing and replacing the actual joysticks is incredibly easy.

I recently purchased replacement Xbox controller sticks to fix several controllers in my home where the rubber grips had worn out or completely fallen off. Gaming had become frustrating with the slippery plastic sticks, but these replacements were a game-changer. The new sticks were high-quality, felt durable, and provided excellent grip. Installation was straightforward, even for someone with minimal repair experience. They fit perfectly, restoring the controllers to like-new condition. The improved grip made gaming comfortable and precise again. I highly recommend these replacements for anyone dealing with worn-out thumbsticks—an affordable and easy fix that’s totally worth it!

Bunny chewed the rubber off both sticks and these were a perfect replacement at an affordable price. As other reviewers mentioned there are no included instructions. I checked out iFixits guide and watched a couple online videos. The side grips are hard to get off and I broke the included plastic pry tool in the process. Once the grips are off the 5 screws unscrew easily with the included screw driver. I laid the controller on it's back and then took the top off. The thumbsticks pop off easily and the new ones slide right back on, put everything back and walla as good as new saving the money for a new controller. I plan on purchasing another set for my black controllers.

I was initially concerned about how well this would work given other low-star reviews I saw, but decided to take the plunge. My findings are as follows:My kit did come with tools as advertised: Guitar pick spudger, double-ended clip popper, T8 screwdriver & T6 screwdriverThe fitment of the new stick tops is perfect, HOWEVER they -do- appear to stick to corners if you try them with the controller faceplate off. This seems to just be an oddity with the analog sticks themselves, regardless of the stick covers they will 'stick' to the edges of their movement range if unrestricted. When you put the faceplate back on, they are restricted enough this is a non-issue and they function like normal.I say this is fine in my case because some people allegedly did not receive any tools and had fitment issues with the sticks so there may be a supply problem here. But, if you do get the correct kit, it works great!

The product itself comes with everything except instructions. Which is fine.Just YouTube a xbox one controller tear down video.1 screw behind battery compartment. And 2 in each palm rest.The overall replacement process start to finish took 5 minutes. 2 minutes less than the video I was watching.I only needed 1 screw driver and the blue prybar. However I also have the same set of tools in my ifixit kit.But for the price it's great they include them for anyone needing to do this.The thumbs are a hardened rubber feel that feels just like it did new. Color matches my original shell and you would never know I had to do a thumbstick swap.Overall 10/10 would recommend.Especially if you hate aftermarket thumb stick covers.

Controller feels brand new again

Overall, good replacement - probably just a manufacturing error - but 1 of the 6 new joysticks came without a rubber grip, it was just bare plastic. The other 5 were fine and instal was easy with the provided tools. Just cant give a 5 star review if 1/6th of the product was unusable
