eXtremeRate Replacement Thumbsticks for Xbox Series X & S Controller, Joysticks Repair Kit for Xbox Wireless Controller, Custom Analog Stick Buttons for Xbox One S/X/Elite Controller - Black

Swapped these into an aging controller where the original rubber thumbsticks had completely worn smooth and started peeling. If you have a bit of patience for a DIY install, these are an incredibly cost-effective way to make an old pad feel brand new again instead of shelling out for a replacement controller. The Breakdown: • Pros: The fitment on the internal analog joysticks is absolutely spot-on—there is zero wiggle room, deadzone play, or rubbing against the outer shell rings once reassembled. The texturing on the outer rim is crisp and provides a much more positive grip than worn-out stock sticks. It also comes packaged with the necessary T8 security screwdriver and a plastic pry tool, which is a massive bonus if you don't already own a dedicated electronics toolkit. • Cons: The installation requires you to completely take apart the controller shell. While not inherently difficult, it does mean popping off the side grips and unscrewing the body, which might feel daunting if you aren't comfortable with basic DIY tech repairs. Also, the rubberized coating feels a tiny bit firmer than the original Microsoft factory sticks; it’s still highly comfortable, but there is a subtle texture difference to get used to. Performance & Real-World Use: Once installed, they perform flawlessly. They sit at the exact same height as the original OEM sticks, meaning your muscle memory doesn’t need to adjust. I’ve put a solid 30+ hours of heavy use into these across FPS and racing games, and the textured cross-hatching on the edges shows absolutely no signs of flattening out or rubbing off. They handle sweat well without becoming slick or greasy. Final Verdict: An excellent, high-quality replacement part for anyone looking to refurbish a worn controller or customize their setup. The included tools make it a self-contained project, and the quality of the plastic and rubber rivals the original gear. Just take your time watching a quick disassembly video beforehand, and you'll get a flawless result.

I've just bought my second set to replace worn down thumbsticks. I'm a daily gamer and the first set of these I bought lasted around 18 months which is great for the price! They feel sturdy and are smooth. They are easy to fit once you get the controller apart, I just followed a guide online for this (there are plenty). I bought purple to go with my Stellar Shift controller and they look great! Would definitely recommend and will be purchasing more in another 18 months.

Amazing, this is my Electric Volt Series S/X Controller that I’ve had for about 2 years now. The original thumbsticks have completely discoloured and worn. These replacements feel exactly like the original was at new and have also improved the overall look of my controller. Quality is great, comfortable and easy to install once you take the faceplate off. Also like the fact it comes with a little screwdriver. Will definitely be purchasing again for my other controllers.

I was hesitant about the product after reading one review that apparently noted the joysticks as a very poorly made and that the rubber and plastics had bits and pieces sticking out. I haven't experienced any of this. In my opinion, the one that I received seems to be made entirely same to OEM specs. The rubber seems to be the same quality as OEM, which is to say that it will probably loosen over time. One gripe from me is that the pricing could be a bit more competitive, perhaps 7 pounds? There are cheaper options for the same thing if you look beyond amazon. But other than this slight annoyance, the product itself did exactly what I wanted it to do.

Work well, easy to replace. No complaints

Somehow smashed my controller (don't want to talk about it) and had to order these to replace the very broken joysticks. These were perfect, very easy to install and were back up and running in about 5 minutes. It comes with a guide to make sure you are taking apart the correct parts In the correct order. They are exactly like the original xbox grips so the same size texture and grips as the original and even the same look. All works perfectly so very happy with purchase.

Really happy with my purchase. I needed some new sticks for my Gears of war controller. The original sticks were black but I think this colour looks much nicer. I can't comment on longevity but they look good quality in person. I will be buying more from this seller.

I only replaced the thumbstick last week, so it's too early to comment on its durability, but my initial thoughts are a) this one was easy to install using the screwdriver provided (although I also had to use my own flat-head screwdriver to prize open the controller casing), and b) it looks and feels exactly like the original Xbox one. All in all, very positive so far.

I loved that I could customize my own controller. I got these because my analog sticks broke somehow. They have a little discoloration after useage on the top part. Coul just use a wipe and wala good as new! Great brand.

Easy to fit and they are a good replacement for the original thumbsticks

Einer der zwei war komplett verdreckt und das geht auch leider nicht mehr herunter. Jetzt wieder warten zu können bis neue da sind ist ärgerlich da meine aktuellen defekt sind und ich meinen Controller nicht verwenden kann…. Sowas wird definitiv nicht in meinen Controller eingebaut…

Producto de buena calidad, y es de agradecer que incluya el destornillador

Installation très simple et parfaite, très forte probabilité de commander à nouveau quand ceux-ci seront usés. 10/10
