Review on Switch Joy-Con Controller & Switch Lite 3D Joystick Replacement - 2-Pack with Metal Latch & Y1.5 Screwdrivers, Fix Drift Stick, Enhance Gaming Experience by Justin Frazier

Revainrating 3 out of 5

One joystick out of the box was broken

So the kit came with some nice tools suitable for joystick replacement. After watching a few videos, I already knew what to expect and the exchange took less than ten minutes. Unfortunately this replacement joystick had a very severe drift when plugged into the switch, worse than the factory joystick I replaced! I removed that and used the other one that was in the package and it worked fine with no drift and I was able to calibrate it and the drift problem was gone. I contacted Revain support to see if they could just send me a joystick but they said they couldn't replace individual parts and I would have to send the entire kit in for a replacement. Now that one of the sticks is already installed this poses a problem. I explained that I didn't want to do this and would try to contact the seller directly. Unfortunately I can't find a way to do this. Anyway, apart from one rod being bad, I'm happy with the product. If both work, this would be a 5 star rating.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
