PlayVital Thumb Grip Caps for Steam Deck, Silicone Thumbsticks Grips Joystick Caps for Steam Deck - Raised Dots & Studded Design

I tried the ones from Skull & Co but theyre too loose. Tried the JSAUX ones but theyre too smooth. These are perfect. Just wish the hex pattern was concave instead of convex and even thats a minor problem since they grip so well

Adds a lot of much needed grip, and texture to the steam decks joysticks without adding too much bulk.

Cute but not for a Xbox controller. Theyre way too small.

I love the design of the Steam Decks analog sticks, but they seem to be purpose-engineered to attract dust, so these covers are a necessity for me, since I was getting tired of swabbing the sticks every day to clean them. The covers are a pleasant texture and not too thick, as well as being fairly grippy. Only issue is that they can be a pain to install, but for the price, you cant go wrong with these. I might even get more to use for my other controllers.

Pros: They fit well on the switchs thumbsticks. They have a grippy pattern. Cons: Although the pattern is grippy, the material is not. After a while it actually becomes pretty slick. And the grip pattern unfortunately doesnt compensate well enough for this, so they end up feeling rather pointless.

Time to start off the New Year of 2023 with thumb grips made to fit Steam Dec, and in the shape of a kitty! - well, I thought it rhymed! Wait, how about this one: Time to start of the New Year of 2023 with thumb grips that fit the Steam Deck purr-fectly ! (Yeah, I guess my rhymes are more tailored for cat people.) However, if youre not a cat person, you might like the other Steam Deck thumb grip designs that PlayVital offers that are made to fit the analog sticks on your Valve Steam Deck perfectly. With them, you get really great control on your gameplay without your thumbs slipping around or not getting that just right pressure you need to apply for that perfect move, or shot, or whatever you need in the game! They keep your thumbs intact and are these are specially molded to fit your Steam Deck! Putting them on is easy and quick too. As for me, I like cats a lot and I like gaming too, so this is the perfect way to show em off. I got skull-like ones for my husband, even though he loves our cat, I dont think hed proudly accessorize with kitties on his deck! His, however, fit perfect as well. Thanks PlayVital for the perfect fit in Steam Deck accessible thumb grips! There are more and more Steam Decks out and about now. If you want to go for comfort, accuracy and a grip that will hold your thumbs in perfect position, I highly recommend these! Thats it for meow - cough cough - I mean now! :)

Great at their job

Does exactly what it says. Fits the thumb grips very nicely and tightly on the Steam Deck, and solves the slippery surface problem of the original Steam Deck thumb sticks being very smooth, causing your thumbs to easily slip off them when playing. When putting them on, simply turn the bottom sides up, place over the thumbstick top directly in the middle, then slowly flip the sides down and around the thumbstick. They do fit snug, so it make take a couple tries to get them on. If youre having a difficult time putting them on, follow what Ive stated, but when the sides have been flipped down, slowly turn them allowing the rubber to slide around the top to secure. These do solve the problem of slippery thumbstick tops on the Steam Deck. The concave tops included are far superior to the domed tops, which are worthless to me, as my thumbs still slip off the tops. Itd be better if they just included 2 sets of the concave thumbstick covers rather than include a pair of the useless domed covers IMO.

This was purchased for use with my Steam Deck. As there were no reviews at the time of my purchase, I took the bullet so you can make an educated purchase. First off, the Capacitive Touch Sensors do work with the caps on. Also, with the caps on and no protective case, they will fit in the Valve provided Steam Deck Case without depressing and clicking the sticks. Will update if I ever add a protective case. Design: I purchased primarily for the Diamond Grain but have ended up using the Crack Bomb design. Reason for this being, the Diamond Grain has a more domed form where as the Crack Bomb is more concave and seems to hug the sticks better. Have not had them shift or come off yet, but I havent put that much time into them. Installation of the caps is not as easy as the seller suggests in their pictures, they will not snap on immediately as suggested. Turn them inside out and slowly flip the edges down in a clockwise or counter clockwise motion, if a side gets folded under, just rotate the caps and that should be enough to unfold them. Be weary, too many attempts could stretch out the caps as they are not the most pliable silicone. Additional Note: Although the product description does state this was designed for Steam Deck and is NOT compatible with other controller or console, these are definitely compatible with and fit PERFECTLY on the Nintendo Switch Joycons and I absolutely believe these were designed primarily for Joycons. For $9.99, it was an ok buy. I dont regret it yet.

These are fantastic. Don’t know how I used my deck without them.
