I have tried many thumb grips before but this have to be the best so far! I wish they came in different colors as I could only find them in white.

Very comfortable and removes the 'rub' that can from long play; I find that it allows more fine control over character movements as well. Very easy to install.

I've been looking for KontrolFreeks for my PS4. I was worried after reading reviews about them slipping, but got them anyway to try them out. I'm SO glad I did! I don't know what people are talking about with the "slipping" thing. Mine never slip! I'm rough on controllers, too. (I stream on Twitch.TV twice a day & game on my own.)
Since I started using them, my accuracy has improved A TON! It took just 2 multi-player matches of Call of Duty Advanced Warfare to get used to them. Now I don't know what I'd do without them! They'll help in any game you play; from Minecraft to Battlefield 4.
I highly recommend this product!

This item actually lives up to the expectation that it advertises and what I hoped for. It provides and nice secure grip to the controller during frantic matches and also provides a nice grip for my thumb which is super important. It's durability is holding up so far , as I've had mine for about month now. The design is great looking and feels in the proper place for a gaming accessory. One issue I have is that they're white, not a good color if you snack while gaming as they will eventually get dirty and show it early. Other than that great product.

Good Grip and Control

I originally wanted to add more grip for the thumb sticks on my PS4 controller. These thumb stick grips also extend the thumb sticks higher, which I thought was interesting. While they do add comfortable grip, they also add leverage and control on your thumb sticks which help with very technical movement in games. Overall they have helped my gaming performance, which is appreciated, so overall it's a good product.

I bought these more out of curiosity than anything. The longer stick let's you either crank up the sensitivity on your game and still make small movements, or keep it at a normal level and get quite a but more accuracy. Very comfy to use. And they just snap over your sticks so it's pretty easy to switch them when your controller dies. I wouldn't pay much more for them but I'm glad I got them.

These analog stick extenders are great for extra control when playing games such as Call of Duty. However I have small hands and can barely reach them with my thumbs. This is obviously a personal product not a problem with the product lol. However my boyfriend loves them.

I wouldn't call myself a competitive gamer at all. I play for the fun, but I don't like the inconveniences of slipping off of my control sticks. Something that I didn't notice until I stated reading reviews of the original PS4 controller. I read these help with your precision in FPS games. I will say that is true in Destiny, I have yet to try it out in COD: AW. I've also read that these sticks come off easily, I have had these now for about 2 months, I've have played through some pretty frustrating games and these have still not come off. They are great, but one thing that's odd is that its hard to sprint when the sprinting is mapped to one of the control sticks. I am contemplating trying to play with a stick on R3 and using a kontrol freak cap on the other.

These really helped with control during FPS gameplay, but after a while they tend to make my thumb joints hurt. This is obviously going to vary from person to person, but they do vastly change the angle your thumb contacts the analog stick so that's something to keep in mind. Also the white tends to get kind of dirty quickly.

These extenders work great. I have better control of my ESO character and my hands don't hurt as much, after a long gaming day.

Not sure if I get 40% more linear motion but I feel they work. They make your thumbs sit up higher so it's more comfortable and you do have better range of motion. Also the tops are textured and that keeps thumbs from slipping off.

These really are more comfortable to use. I don't have huge hands, but these name holding the controller for long periods a lot more comfortable. Paired with the stickon comfort grip and there is no stopping you. I didn't see any increase with reaction times or quickness, just comfort.

If you have small hands and short fingers these are not for you. But if you have average to large hands you will love these. They make playing smoother and to me my fingers do not feel as beat upon because it is easier to punch down the buttons. I have used these with several types of games from first person shooters to MGP role playing games.

Hard to believe I played games a long time without these. Definitely takes time to get used to but now feel natural and easy to use. Only problem is they fall off easily if you don't pay attention to stick smashing. Had them fall off in crucial fights in games.

The fact these extenders provided a nice boost to the comfort level is why i gave it 3 stars. However, the whole "guaranteed improvement to accuracy/performance" is a joke. I tried them out on BF4 and Hardline and while they felt nice, there were several instances where one or both would pop off mid-session or where it feels awkward(mainly in close quarters situations for me). I have read numerous reviews saying the same problem so i know its not just me. The whole thing feels a bit gimmicky to me, basically another way to make money off of us gamers. I returned these after about 15hrs of use, dont recommend based on quality of product and the fact they dont live up to the "guarantees".
