GAMING® Thumbsticks Replacement Xbox One Controllers Review

As an avid gamer, I'm very fast with my left analog stick. This is a great replacement for old worn out thumbsticks that are almost sawn in half. The only issue I had was that the right analog stick doesn't fit like the left one, causing problems sticking in the direction you pushed it. Good product.

They look great, but more importantly, they feel great. The finish is also very good. The only small issue is that they are a little tight to get onto the stick when you install it. Be careful not to press them too hard against the board, and support the board from the other side to make sure the connectors don't come loose. I don't regret buying this set at all! Enjoy your photos. The first is aluminum vs stock and the second is a closeup of how they arrived.

These great sticks literally last forever and will outlast any controller you buy. Some of our aluminum joysticks are located in the third controller. Aluminum on plastic is much more responsive and smoother than the plastic on plastic you get stock. That's why the $150 Elite have aluminum-based joysticks. These are not very grippy. They are quite stubborn, but control freaks are in demand. If you buy these and free controls, you can buy replacement high-end mini joysticks sold by the same…

I was a bit skeptical about buying them at first but when they arrived I put them in my controller and I can't explain how good they are! Definitely recommend instead of those standard plastic analog sticks as they wear out MUCH longer (if you ever decide to use them). The only thing I noticed when first inserting it into the controller was that with the shell closed, the right analog stick wouldn't move. This was easily fixed by squeezing them a little harder so they fit properly in the…

Using metal analog sticks instead of plastic ones, in this gamer's humble opinion, greatly increases the lifespan of the Xbox One controller. Plastic pins wear out over time, leaving plastic dust in the controller slots. Shortly after, you may find that your controller is prone to the dreaded case of stick not returning to 0, making the game almost impossible to play. If you replace plastic chopsticks with metal chopsticks, this will never happen to you again. Because of this, it doesn't matter

I bought these to replace an old worn analog joystick. The image below shows a comparison of a standard analog stick versus a metal analog stick after the same amount of abuse. At first I was afraid that the metal analog stick would damage the case of my controller. As you can see, I had nothing to fear. The crank works surprisingly well on these analog sticks. Some people say that being overweight is a problem for them, but I haven't found any reason to agree with them. They feel a little…

This is absolutely amazing, although it would be nice for higher quality aluminum if it were really overkill. They really add a nice solid feel to your stock controller. Unfortunately, there's one problem they can't fix, and that's the poor internal structure of Microsoft's joysticks, which wear out quickly. This is possibly the most advanced mechanism they have ever designed for joysticks on a controller, but the materials are significantly inferior compared to previous versions of Microsoft…
