Review on Gam3Gear Aluminum Analog Thumbstick Xbox ONE Xbox One by Todd Stepp

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good work! Ease of installation.

I bought these to replace worn out sticks on my original Xbox One S controller. Apparently I was squeezing my controller too hard because I actually ripped the rubber off the original joysticks lol. I chose the green ones because they were the cheapest and I don't care about the color. They appear to be aluminum molds of the original sticks with rubber caps. My thumb tips (which I rarely use anymore) fit with no problems. They were very easy to install if you have a T8 screwdriver. I was able to swap out the sticks in less than 5 minutes. My only concern with the sticks is that they can be a little slippery just because my hands tend to get a little sweaty, so that's more of a personal issue. Be careful, if your hands sweat a lot you may need some kind of rubber grip on top. For me personally it wasn't a big problem. Overall, they look and feel great. The added weight of the aluminum thumbsticks was also a big plus.

Pros
  • Best in the niche
Cons
  • Not the best
