That is correct. In fact, they are more comfortable to hold than the original controller plastics. br>The smooth touch is nice, but I haven't tried the gripping on any fast-paced games yet. br>To finish, you'll also need the blue pastel.
We updated the material to prevent peeling and to give it a soft-touch feel. I'd say no.
This is only a replacement grip for the controller, not the whole thing. The pro controller's sticks are very similar to those found on a PS4 or Xbone controller, and stick drifting hasn't been an issue.

I bought three items from this seller, all of which I expected to be made from molds, but they're all white plastic with a single coat of paint on them. This won't last more than a couple of weeks, especially around the joysticks and buttons. If they're going to sell painted items, they should make that clear in the product description.
I have no idea what it is, but it does not appear to be safe.
This is the EASIEST part to replace, as it only requires one screw to remove the 'cap. ' How can you go wrong when this company provides you with all of the necessary tools, as well as extra screws just in case? If you want to add that color but don't want to void your warranty or open up the controller, this is a great solution. It pairs well with their other kits, so you really have nothing to lose if you want to go the whole way (as I did). br>br>I'd like to add one thing about the style I received (I'm not sure if this applies to all styles). Because I'm using the chameleon grips, the 'feel' of the controller differs from that of a standard controller. It has a very smooth, almost slick feel to it due to the materials used. This isn't a deal breaker for me because I've used'metallic' style controllers before, but it's worth noting for those who dislike the smooth feel.
eXtremeRate offers a variety of accessories for the pro controller, including the grip, main shell, and buttons, and I chose to purchase the entire set. br>br>Installation is relatively simple overall, particularly the grips, which take about 5 minutes to complete. Each side requires unscrewing a single piece, slipping it off, and then screwing the new one in place. br>br>It looks exactly like the picture on Amazon, and the screw set included in the kit is adequate for any task you might need to complete. br>br>In a nutshell, it's simple, it looks good, and it comes with everything you need. It will turn out fantastic if you take a few minutes out of your day to do so.
These grips have a really nice feel to them. They're not as slick as the ones that came with the pro controller. They do, however, have some drawbacks. The grips are white, so they're easy to stain or get dirty, but that's to be expected given their color; the other disadvantage is that if you try to pair it with another shell from the same brand, the grips don't quite match. And by this, I mean that the grips do not transition smoothly to the shell. It's as if the grips are larger than the shell, and you can feel a small bump when sliding your finger across it or simply holding it in your hands, which irritates me a little, but whatever.
I came across these while shopping for the NES shell for the Switch Pro Controller and had to give them a try. I'm glad I did because they're fantastic and give the controller a nice trip, plus they look great with the NES Shell. Installation is incredibly simple, requiring only one screw per handle, and they even include a mini screwdriver and extra screws if you don't already have one. The fit is perfect, with no raised edges or gaps, which is especially important because any misalignment is very noticeable, which completely ruins the experience for me. The raised texture is also extremely long-lasting, with no rubbing or peeling. Overall, I'm pleased with my purchase, as I am with all of ExtremeRate's products, and would strongly recommend it to anyone who is interested.
These grips have a softer, less tacky, and less sticky feel than stock grips. It's actually more comfortable in the hand; it won't stick to your skin like an adhesive if you have sweaty hands, but it's also not slippery. br>br>If you also have their joycon shells, the sensation is identical. br>br>I went with caution yellow because it's my favorite color. Although there are no coverage issues, the design's long-term durability may be harmed by the fact that it is painted (the inside is white plastic with splatters of color). It won't be a problem for a while, but I wish they had a bright orangey yellow like the stock joycon; it's dull in comparison. br>br>Easy to put together; only two screws are required. The screws that came with the kit are defective; replace them with stock screws. I used my own screwdriver, which is a Phillips screwdriver rather than a tri-wing screwdriver.
Instead of using the screwdrivers that came with it, I bought a phone repair kit from Walmart, and I wouldn't detach the ribbon part of the controller if you haven't done so before. (If you're replacing the buttons/analog sticks, you'll need to complete this step. ) I didn't remove the ribbon while replacing everything because I didn't want to ruin my brand new controller, and it worked out perfectly! All you have to do now is take it slowly and gently. br>While watching and rewatching the YouTube video, it took me about an hour to replace everything. The grips are by far the simplest parts to install, as they only require one screw and slide right on, taking no more than three minutes to complete. For ACNH, I use my pro controller, which has served me well.
