Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Analog Stick Covers - Enhance Your Gaming Experience with Grip-iT by Sal Muniz

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good grip, Good cushioning, Not very good long-term stability

If you experience pain in the middle of your thumb after playing for several hours continuously, this will greatly reduce your discomfort due to the slippery nature of the original soft rubber of your Controllers who find it difficult to keep their thumbs in the center of the joysticks will greatly improve this situation as well. That's why it's only "good" for me: the package comes with 2 sets as the picture shows, it's not bad, but there is a problem when it comes to a long game. I started Horizon: Zero Dawn and after about 4 hours I finally applied them to my controller out of discomfort. It wasn't until about halfway through the game (about 32 hours) that I noticed that my controller had bits of rubber all over the outside of the joystick and in the hole under the grips. Well, this isn't a serious issue because it's just a cosmetic issue. You might not even see it on the black controller, but since mine is the white one from the Destiny 1 bundle, I could see it clearly. After a few more hours (about 50 or so) I noticed the same piece of plastic all over the surface where my thumbs rest. It smeared over my fingers and started to wear, but fortunately the comfort didn't change much. Let me just say that I know not everyone will play that long, but as I was recovering from some medical issues I had no other schedule for the week than vegetating and playing the game from start to finish. Long story short / Closing Notes: If you're a casual gamer who just needs a little lift and switch support, then this will help. Not much, but not bad. It's also worth noting that you'll notice more grip on the joysticks overall, but be aware that after just 50 hours you'll start to notice wear and tear on them. 72 hours in the rubber is still fine, but the wear has been so high that I can feel a kind of thin gap between the rubber and the original joystick button. Also, all the lids twist and turn a little easier. than they should, if at all. This is just my experience but I recommend you try it, see what you think and pay attention to the rubber pieces in the joystick hole at the bottom so as not to damage your joystick movement for a long time. Expression.
