Playing FPS games like Titanfall and COD, I wanted to improve my game. Read about this from the gaming community. I was looking for the new COD, but they were out, fount this instead and decided to give them a try since I have never used KontrolFreeks before. First, both thumb stick are the same height, they aren't like the new COD version, that the left side is smaller than the right side. Now, I don't know if it's me or what, It does seems crazy, but this things does improve your FPS gaming. Precision and accuracy are improved, they really are, it feel more confortable to play to, since your thumb travel is more easy. I'm not a hardcore gamer, and I feel they have improved my FPS gaming. A little wired at first, but definitely they will improve any gamer's game. A must have for any xbox one user.

They work great for first person shooters. I only use it to extend the right analog for better aiming. Only problem is they are white (at least the ones I got) so they start to turn black on top after awhile

Nice thumb stick extensions, I'm using them for my Xbox One controller. The length took a bit to get used to and I'm starting to get a small amount of wear on one of them. Maybe white wasn't the best choice since they seem to get dirty pretty easy. I haven't measured my KD to see if it has really improved my accuracy. A good tip is to dial down your sensitivity in the beginning to get used to them, then slowly bring it back up.

I purchased these because I have large hands. They were easy to install and stay on. I find that I have increased control and less hand cramps. I really like the design as well.

I bought these to try out on a FPS and the difference is amazing! I really enjoy playing with these since not only do they increase your accuracy, they also provide a better grip on the joystick itself. I have found that if you put one on the left joystick, it helps you with racing games also, like Forza.

These things are pretty cool. Great for when I'm playing Call of Duty. Take a bit of getting used to, but the extra height increases speed and accuracy of the thumbsticks. The extra grip is nice as well. Snap easily on the analog sticks, and can be removed as well, without falling off while playing.

I recently found out about these and thought I would try them.
I was disappointed in that they still lacked a true range of motion feeling for fighting games like Killer Instinct hands down nothing beats a good old fight stick.
For any game involving aiming at a target such as FPS etc these help out drastically with more accurate range since you have better control overran gw of motion. Games like Farcry 4, COD etc this will definitely help your aim....
The only downside is eventually they loosen up and will continually pop off the controller.which can make for an annoying gaming experience I guess they could be glued on but only if you want them permanently attached

I use the kontrolfreak controls when I am playing video games that require on point moves. I don't use it for all of my video games. It does work in positioning your thumbs on the controls to make more accurate moves.

I don't really like the white rubber because they tend to get dirty. I have to wash them once a week because the color becomes dull. Other than that I don't think I'll be able to use a controller without them again.

PS4 implementation YES. XBOX ONE? So So

I'm admittedly a Playstation fanboy who caved for the XBox One because of Forza 6 and the Tomb Raider sequel. These 'buttons' are superb when matched with a DualShock4; I will never again pick up a PS controller w/o them. With the XBox One contoller? It's a different story. While the ergonomics of the X1 controller are rather comfortable on their own, these buttons create an unnatural reach that become tiresome and somewhat painful. Do they offer superior precision? Absolutely. But when you game for at least a couple hours on end, you contemplate removing them for longevity's sake

Had these for my xbox 360 and so I needed some for xbox one since thumbs sticks are different. Definitely makes the controller much more comfortable and fluid. Definitely improve my gaming experience and perfect for fps. Great purchase and highly recommended.

These work well and I understand how they improve your gaming. Unfortunately, they were too tall for people with smaller hands. I returned these and got the CQCs.

Very good feel and an awesome pair of grips . The only problem I have is they clip on to the thumbpads and if your doing certain movements with the thumbpads in a quick motion they pop off quite easily .
