There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I used the thinner ones on the top and thicker ones on the bottom because I find that the top buttons were never as annoying to press as the bottom ones. The rubber is soft but solid to press and the grips are great, overall everything feels nice about these and its definitely way easier to use the deck now, this is how it should have always been.
With these and a spigen case I still have no issue putting the deck in its original carrying case which is a nice bonus.
Installation was super easy and the nano tape is very cool, allowing you to reapply if you need to adjust.
I don't understand why it came in the case it did though? I can't deny that it's nice but I won't use it for anything and I feel like that thing cost more than the grips themselves... The price of these is already expensive for what you get
That communication issue aside, I'm really quite impressed on the presentation...zipper case with mesh that can be repurposed for who knows what (I'm putting my USB charge adapter and joystick caps in there for now, but it would also fit ear buds and a charging cable quite easily).
The adhesive is 3M and it grips very well to the SD button. Getting the backing off of something that is precision cut is a little challenging - I suggest you find a pair of fine tweezers or a hobby knife and poke at the corners until you find one that wants to lift. It's not that difficult.
The buttons are a soft rubber and I'm finding the slimmer ones to be just enough to get access to those troublesome buttons. They do grip to the adhesive, although given how smooth the grip surface is, it can easily be peeled off, as well. I took the tip of a sharp knife and lightly scored a hatch pattern on the back of the button in hopes of giving it a little more something to grip onto. I expect this will be fine, but I do see the possibility of the buttons coming off through regular use. Perhaps that's why they included that really nice carry case :).
Removing the adhesive from the button is really easy. Just press with a finger or thumb and roll it from the edge.
Overall, I think this is an excellent product. It would be a 6/5 if the buttons could be engineered to stick a little better. But at this price, I'm not complaining!
As an unexpected added bonus, they make holding the deck slightly more ergonomically comfortable, your fingers won't need to dig into the deck as much, and they can comfortably rest on the raised pads.
I would give 5 stars, but I'm only giving 4 because application was awful, the provided double sided tape was a huge struggle to peel, took me around 20 minutes in total for all 4 buttons. Also I cannot definitely say, but I feel like the adhesive could easily peel off over time or if you snag the buttons in some weird manner, I haven't tried to rip them off to see how much force would be needed for that to happen, but realistically they should be on there for good.
Reviewed in Canada on September 18, 2023
When applied to the back of the rubber buttons, the adhesive feels weak. I don't expect these to survive much, though time will tell.
The buttons also come with a little zipper case for some reason. I would have preferred to save a buck or two though I suppose I could use it to carry earbuds or something. Bit of a weird decision for a one-and-done kind of product.
Overall, I'm generally satisfied but I guess I expected something easier to install that would last longer.
Top reviews from other countries
They were a tiny bit tedious and confusing to install, but with a little bit of mental willpower, I was able to get them installed without any issues. Just remember, you want to apply the sticky bit to your buttons first, then apply the grips afterwards. Use good lighting so that you can see what you're doing, but make sure you don't use too good of a light or it will melt your Steam Deck while you're applying the stickers. Don't be like me and overheat the steam deck while doing this. Luckily, I was able to realize that the light i was using was heating up my steam deck and I was able to use a different light to get the job done. Use a low powered light, or a light that doesn't get super hot so that you don't melt your L1/L2/R1/R2 buttons while trying to install these stickers to the L4/L5/R4/R4 back buttons.
These come in 2 thickness sizes, 4 enhancers each, with multiple pieces of double-sided adhesive, in case you mess up (I messed up once!). They come in a neat little clamshell case with alcohol wipes and a mini microfiber cloth. Step 1 was to take my TPU grip case off and remove the skins I had already placed on the buttons. Step 2, clean and dust the buttons with the alcohol wipes and dry them off with the microfiber cloth. Step 3, pick the desired thickness and position the button enhancers. Step 4, apply the double-sided adhesive to the enhancer. A note I'd like to make is to apply one button at a time. Step 5, place the enhancer on the button. Try to get it right on the first try, because if you try to remove it, the double-sided adhesive can pull off of the enhancer. That's where I messed up! Another note is that the adhesive pieces are mirror images of each other, so it doesn't matter which one you use as long as it matches the shape of the button and enhancer. Step 6, put the case back on, and enjoy!
I used the thicker enhancer versions since I have a grip case on it, and let me tell you, there was a huge difference right away! I was able to play Doom 2016 and jump around and chainsaw successfully. The same goes with Team Fortress 2. These enhancers are game changers. They're made out of a nice, grippy, soft rubber that contours perfectly to your finger tips. I would absolutely recommend these to anyone looking to make the back buttons more comfortable and accessible; they're terrific!
