Excelente producto, sentí la diferencia desde el primer momento que usé mi control de Xbox Series X. La zona muerta es extremadamente baja lo que hace que la respuesta sea más inmediata... No es un accesorio de fácil instalación por el proceso de soldadura que hay que hacer, lo más recomendable es usar una estación de calor para poder retirar los Joysticks originales. Llevo una semana de uso y han funcionado a la perfección Read more

Update 2: Replacements arrived and installed. It doesn't seem like the rough movement of the left joystick, nor having to recalibrate the right joystick after each power-off cycle, are present. I think 3 stars is fair, considering the work involved with having to desolder the bad joysticks and reinstall the replacements. Hey Gulikit, how about a bit more effort on the QC side? Update: They lasted one day of heavy gaming and are now shot. Hoping for better quality replacements. We shall see. Installed and calibrated these yesterday on an X-series XBox controller, they work well. You really do need some basic soldering and desoldering skills (and the tools needed to disassemble the controller). There’s an excellent disassembly how-to on ifixit.com. You don’t need to fully remove the two circuit boards but they do need to be separated and maneuvered so one of the controllers can be removed. They calibrated almost perfectly with the MS calibration app. One of the controllers had a small dead zone in the NW quadrant, very close to the edge, but not severe enough that I was going to undo all my work! In BO6 it doesn’t show up in the dead zone calibration. Read more

This product is a direct replacement for your Xbox Series S/X controller. Like many gamers, my Series X controller had developed the joystick drift. Mine was primarily on the left stick. The primary issue was that based on the analog sticks in a new Xbox controller, I was bound to have the same issue down the road. This meant the only option is to buy a 3rd party controller with Hall Effect Sticks, or replace the current sticks inside my game pad. Replacing the pads is the most cost-effective option, but please note that if you do not have advanced soldering skill (or know someone who does), this will not be a viable option. During the Covid lockdown, I started to build drones to pass the time. I had very little experience with soldering prior to that, but I learned by making mistake after mistake. I have progressed enough where I now have decent skills plus extra equipment. Speaking of which, I have a desoldering gun which I used to remove the sticks on the controller. You can try to use a desoldering wick, but you must know you are dealing with commercial grade solder which is not easy to remove. The desoldering gun makes the process much easier. Then you will have to resolder the tabs which is not extremely difficult if you have some prior experience under your belt. My key point is that if you have no previous experience with de-soldering and soldering, you may want to pass. There are great 3rd party options that can provide more capability than changing out the sticks on your defective controller. The bottom line is that if you have joystick drift on your Xbox Series X/S controller, AND, you have previous experience with soldering/de-soldering this is a cost-effective solution. This is a direct drop-in replacement for your controller and calibration on your console is a breeze. If you do not have any previous experience and you do not know anyone who does, I recommend you pass. I hope this helps. Read more

They work flawlessly. They feel better than the stock sticks and glide so much smoother. Read more

Not a fun install, but work as intended once you get thru soldering. Make sure you have some solder wick, flux, and a nice soldering iron. I found it easier to cut the old joysticks out in pieces, use some snips and cut the top corners to have four separate pieces. Makes removing the old pots/and joystick a lot easier. Hopefully these last forever. If they don't I'll come back and update my review. Update 2: 9/5/25 Ordered another set for another one of my kids drifting Xbox controllers. This time I ordered a desolder gun and it made installing waaaaay easier. New pots work perfectly as are the ones I installed on my original review. Read more
