GRIPMAX CLOSE COMBAT - XBOX ONE Thumbstick Grips By HC GamerLife

I got these because I didn't like how small the thumb sticks on the Xbox One controller are compared to the 360 thumb sticks. These are pretty good, the only thing I wish they had would be some type of grip in the middle. Overall they are a good, cheap fix if you want thumb sticks the size of the Xbox 360 controller.

I was under the impression they "snapped" onto the old joysticks for a tight fit. They're rather loose. The left one keeps coming off. But, they were only $8. What can you expect.

I have had an xbox for well over 10 years now and every few years I went through the process of wearing out the thumbstick and then had to replace the controller. For me new xBox One it is only around 9 months old and the grip was starting to wear on the stick and I was annoyed at the thought of having to replace a $60.00 controller due to this persistent issue.Luckily I found these little grip covers and for cheap price I found that I get 2 benefits.1) I don't have to replace the overpriced xbox one controller2) These actually give me more grip that the basic thumbstickSince I like FPS games like Battlefield 4, Destiny and occasionally Call of Duty having a good grip with quick precision is the key difference between winning and losing.When I searched on Amazon I found a number of options, but this one stood out. I only want HIGH quality and the product, packaging and delivery experience was flawless. That gives me confidence in this brand.PROS:- Good Grip- Low Price- Saves my expensive controller- Easy install- Low profileCONS:- I wish there were other colors- Too early to tell how long they will last, but cheap to replace so no big dealAll in All this is a recommended product for anyone with an Xbox One.

After using for a while, I have had to edit my review. These grips slide off during intense action, specifically sports games in my case. Shooting in NHL, or moving joystick hastily, grips slide completely off. Would recommend shopping around for grips that fit tightly at the base(skinny part) of thumbsticks.

Close Combat GripsI have been a gamer for over 10 years and I love these grips. The feel of the soft rubber is much nicer than what the standard controller has to offer. The size also has a substantial impact on the way the game feels. I am currently playing Destiny and I was able increase the look sensitivity and have more control with the addition of the grips.The only drawback to grips was the learning curve. For about the first week of gaming sessions I kept bumping the right thumbstick when moving from the buttons to the grip and vice versa. However, after some use I was able to overcome this issue. So, with some practice, it will become a non-issueI would recommend this product to anyone with an Xbox One. They are useful for the casual and the hardcore gamer.

Will fall off during gameplay.

I'm personally using them to keep my original XB1 thumbsticks from wearing out. I'm a pretty light gamer when it comes to hours played a week, so I expect these to last me a year before I need to buy more.No issues in the few days I've had it. They feel great on the thumbs, especially those 4 dimples for that slightly better grip, though I don't expect the dimples to last that long. Overall I'm happy, and will buy more in the future.

They don't stay on. Every time I put them on they fall off as I'm playing. Very disappointed in these.
