Thumb caps look nice and are bigger than switch sticks. They are comfortable to play and offer enough grip even for intensive gaming. However, my hands get sweaty when playing for a long time, which reduces the effectiveness of the grip. And the cap prevents the wand from reaching the end. EXAMPLE: I played Crash Bandicoot. There are times in the "Run in front of the rolling boulder" levels where he starts walking mid-run. I had to push harder on the joystick to keep it going. In addition, it is difficult to remove the caps after they are installed. I must have gotten it wrong because the original Switch cover started peeling off. Overall I like these lids. I feel like I play better with them. And it's great to show off your advanced Switch.
