As the title indicates, Kontrol Freeks are expensive for what they are. They literally are analog stick extenders which allow you to make smaller movements more effectively. Keeping that in mind, the basic idea is that a player should play with a higher sensitivity to get more accuracy from what their fingers are actually doing.
For me, it works. At this point, I can't aim without them. I wouldn't say they make you better but some people, like myself, come from PC and feel that aiming with analog sticks can be sluggish and counterintuitive. If you feel that way, these may help.
There are various different ones with different lengths. These Snipr ones are probably the longest and ideally are made for long range engagements where small and precise movements are essential. Think of your play style and choose based on length primarily and then on design. I can safely say that using Snipr length sticks on CQB maps and games doesn't cripple me but there are times I feel too responsive.
They are expensive for what they are; two little extentions to add to your analog sticks, but I've noticed the difference and can't play the same without them. They will take some getting used to but once you do, you'll struggle to go back.

Easy to install (just push them on your joystick). Nice grip, and I feel they improve your gaming than with the shorter joystick you normally use. I just keep them on and use them for everything. I've had this product for about two months now and haven't noticed them doing any damage to the PS4 controller or have had the nubs wear off.

I purchased there's as a replacement to other Kontrol Freaks I've had for three years. These are great for getting that extra edge in fps games, 3.07 k/d after using these!

Glad I bought these joystick extenders. The Freek Snipr Analog Stick extenders help keep my thumbs from getting numb during extended playing and also allow me greater control of the game I am playing. Whether playing NHL 16 or Drake Uncharted or COD, these extenders help me to keep up with my son and improve my proficiency in game-play!!

I’ve been using kontrol freeks for years now, I’m glad I can go to Best Buy, and purchase them whenever in need. This product increases your aim in games such as call of duty, overwatch, and any other first person shooter. I would definitely recommend especially if you’re a serious gamer.

I was apprehensive at first, and actually gave up on these. I tried them a week later, and decided to stay with it. They are awesome, and now I can't play without them.

I have small hands and short fingers so when i play videogames my thumbs start to hurt really badly. Especially when I'm playing for hours on end. However my bf got the for me for shooting games and I love them. It puts less strain on my fingers and I can now play for a longer period of time without the pain. The support and grip also makes it easier for me to play on the ps4.

The Kontrol Freak Analog Stick extenders work great for helping to make movements easier with minimal movement. The textured surface keeps your finger from slipping off as easily as well.

My son wanted these for Christmas to help his game and swears that it does. Great idea for a gift for a kid whose parents can't bear to spend the price for pieces of rubber.

Other than the fact they pop off occasionaly, when I'm making a drastic move, they make the controller more comfortable to use
