> 24 hourI purchased this after my scuff prestige paddles broke for the 5th time, and I could no longer purchase replacement paddles online. The price seemed like a no brainer as I could do the soldering work, and had old controllers lying around. If you dont know how to solder this isnt for you, but if you do, or are willing to learn, its worth it. As for the installation, it was easy and straight forward. The one complaint I had was that I think there must have been an issue with my test board. When I finished I only had 2 lights come on, however after rechecking multiple times my solder joints were secure, so I said forget it Im testing the controller and put it all together. Low and behold every feature works fine. It was a frustrating point that it had me chasing ghost to try to figure out what the problem was, but the satisfaction of being able to say you did it yourself outweighs any of it. As far as use goes, the controller itself is very slick. It gets slippery when picking up and setting down the controller repeatedly (ie watching YouTube, twitch, etc), however when you are gaming you dont notice any issues. Can always just use a random casual controller when doing casual things. This isnt a big issue however, must nitpicking every possible thing I could think a downside would be. If this was a concern I would say buy the textured one? The buttons feel very clicky and responsive. I love the feel of them. They are much nicer to use then any paddles Ive tested. Ive got pretty big hands, and have no issue with button positioning and being able to use them all without compromise. Another big plus about the feel, which I initially worried might had been a thing, was the fitment. Alot of aftermarket diy kits, as in many fields, have an issue with fitment being seamless. This is just that though. I have no issues with seams or loose pieces. The build quality is top notch as well. All in all a great product that I enjoy using more than my past scuff controller or elites.

> 24 hourAs other reviews mention, after installing this kit, several keys do not work. In my case, not even the remapping worked. (Its easy to install, but note I have plenty of experience working with Electronics/Robotics and soldering) But the worst is the support given by the seller. To make the story short, after installing the kit (and then removing it), the controller (Brand new controller that came with my Xbox Series S) stopped working. Of course, installing this voids your warranty, but I still brought the controller and the kit to an authorized Microsoft Repair center for diagnostics, after troubleshooting, the technician found the kit had a Short circuit (They seem to dont do QA to their products), the issue caused the main logic board on the controller to die. The short circuit was between 2 points on different points of the flex board, but they problem was somewhere on the traces.. so it was a manufacturing issue, so this company probably never test their product before shipping After contacting the seller, with diagnostic and the issue found by a certified technician, they turn very hostile, and after requesting to be accountable for their issue, they stop replying. (Also note you can only contact them via Social Media, not even an official email, ticket system or Customer support, they reply to you every 2-3 days). I have already contacted Amazon to conduct an investigation on this seller.

> 24 hourBought this and simple soldering iron and ended up destroying my controller. This is not the project for learning how to solder. Three stars for packaging and presentation.

> 24 hourPerformance wise the kit is amazing, the buttons are really responsive, feel tactile and smooth. Never had a problem while playing games like Elden Ring/Bloodborne. But looks wise, this is how the backplate looks after a lil less than a month of use, although I hear this is only a problem with the white parts, it started to yellow very fast which is very sad because I was going for an almost white controller. 3/5 probably a 4.5/5 if I got any other color.

> 24 hourHad trouble at first but works great now…Installer error. The first time I Soldered, all of led’s on the test board lit up, indicating that all solder points were good. After putting it back together and using the controller, my R3 wasn’t mapping. So I took it back apart and retested it, and sure enough R3 and TP 15 we’re not lit up on the test board. So if anything isn’t mapping retest and fix solder points.

> 24 hourThis is a very reasonably priced mod and it works really well. All of the parts are well made and the youtube guide video is clear and well thought out. Extremerate has excellent customer service. I wouldnt not recommend this as your first soldering attempt, but if you have some experience with soldering, its a great kit

> 24 hourSo I was nervous about trying to do this but figured why not. My Elite Series 2 stopped working properly and everything else is sold out everywhere. So I made my own pro controller. I used Extremerate products for the whole build and couldn’t be happier. I’ve never soldered before so if I could figure it out in one try I’m sure most people can. Plenty of videos on YouTube to show you how to do it. Great product.
