I was looking to get these caps but I might go for swapping out the thumbsticks with XBOX ones instead.

For the folks that have already done it, did you follow the guide on Polygon?

had these last time they were on offer and the dot control ones have need come off the others do sometimes but well worth the money. heat :smiley:

I'm guessing the controllers made from March 15 onwards don't suffer from the same problem. I have four controllers, all well used, and I've never had any wear on any of the sticks.

Been using these since getting my PS4 a little over 2 years ago. The ones with dots are great, I didn't much like the smooth ones though so ended up buying two packs.

cheers op, & thanks for the tips the other posters have advised - son will be happy :smile:

​Or you know for people who have colours other than bloody black

You can get like 20 for £2 from China in multiple colours and styles. Sure shipping crap but that's a much better deal so cold for me.

Tried these before, they end up doing more harm than good, they may replace worn out/damaged thumb sticks but they are too thick and causes the sticks to rub up on the plastic case and cause more wear.

There are much better quality ones on ebay, or better yet just replace the thumbsticks which is very quick and easy.

Tend to buy replacement Xbox one sticks to replace the PS4 ones for the same price. Simple replacement, fits directly to PS4 controller with no problems (they have the same fitting and are made in the same factory) and because the XB1 analogs are solid plastic, no wear and tear!

Good price if these are what you want to go for, though - don't find they are that good when your sticks are already worn out fwiw...

Just bought and had some superpoints which I never knew I had so cost me nothing. Exactly what I needed. Thanks.

hard to believe pony didn't address this big problem pronto

This is standard price for these. Good grips though

thanks OP, just the thing i was looking for.
heat added.

purchased these 2 year's ago and they are still going strong, great for those who find their thumb's slipping off the stick more often than not.

Ps4 sticks are so bad for wearing out, these are a must have sadly
