eXtremeRate Textured Green HOPE Programable Remap Kit for Xbox Series X/S Controller, Upgrade Boards & Redesigned Back Shell & Side Rails & Back Buttons for Xbox Core Controller

This kit turned out great once completed. It probably took me an hour total to get it all put together, and that was partially because I also changed out the buttons and faceplate at the same time, and forgot to put a piece back that required nearly full disassembly again. The kit is well designed. All of the electronic pieces are laid out so they kind of self-align where they need to go. Following the video online, it was a pretty easy job, though some of the solder joints are very small and close together. Take your time and pay attention to the directions and it will work fine. I also ended up taking the advice I saw from another reviewer where I had an LED test board that was falsely telling me one of the joints was bad. If that happens to you, use the board to diagnose which point, and just make sure it has a solid solder joint and then move on. Id have spent a lot more time trying to diagnose something that wasnt bad if I hadnt read that other reviewer with the same problem. Once put together, the kit works great. I love being able to re-map buttons on the fly, though I do wish it had a memory with maybe 2 or 3 profiles to switch between for different games. But I have no complaints for the price and function. Im very impressed with both this kit and the same companys controller shells and could easily see myself buying more of them to customize my other controllers in the future.

Muy bueno pero en un principio no funcionaba. Luego de 5 días funciono al 100%

I was really excited to upgrade my controller and I can solder in my sleep. It didn’t even work. Complete waste of money.

Everything worked as expected. Buttons feel great. Only thing is I’m used to the lower paddles on my Xbox elite 2 controller so these paddles are quite high in comparison. It would be perfect imo if they were more closely placed with those paddles in mind so all the paddle controls stay consistent no matter what controller you use and it would make switching between controls more seamless and less clunky feeling.

This is a very reasonably priced mod and it works really well. All of the parts are well made and the youtube guide video is clear and well thought out. Extremerate has excellent customer service. I wouldnt not recommend this as your first soldering attempt, but if you have some experience with soldering, its a great kit

Good quality and fast delivery. I recommend.

Awesome kit to add back buttons to your controller, in an Elite-esque controller way, the installation process is not that hard, but requires some specific tools and basic knowledge in soldering, it takes somewhat 1 hour to be done (in my case, it took me 2 hours to complete my controller cause I also added two other ExtremeRate kits, one for interchangeable thumb sticks and one for trigger stops). Definitely if you want a cheaper option than buying an Elite Series 2 controller and you have the tools and knowledge, this is your kit to buy.

easy to install if you take your time. buttons are nice but soft white gets discolored to white almost immediately.

Had trouble at first but works great now…Installer error. The first time I Soldered, all of led’s on the test board lit up, indicating that all solder points were good. After putting it back together and using the controller, my R3 wasn’t mapping. So I took it back apart and retested it, and sure enough R3 and TP 15 we’re not lit up on the test board. So if anything isn’t mapping retest and fix solder points.

Sadly my controller started triple tapping buttons when the mod was installed. So, I had to remove it. After having this installed and then having to remove it, I can say I cant see playing some games w/o it. I have zero plans to risk buying another one currently till I can address the failure point. Im leaving my first review intact but would like to make a note. *The removal was easier than expected but I recommend using proper pry tools and a low temp setting on your heat mat/gun to soften the adhesive and make it come off w/o damaging the tfp/ribbon connectors. My First Review is below. PROS Great upgrade! CONS Can make future controller repairs considerably more difficult. Super easy to figure out. I was able to install it w/o even needing to look up directions online. If work on Cellphones or Macs running traces and dealing with multiple screw sizes all over isnt a big deal. (This is way easier) Build time is about 20 Minutes. Its plastics designed very well, but not the best quality of plastics. -Might become a bit brittle and crack near stress points over time. So, dont over tighten those screws. My main gripe is with how its is made to be permanent. It makes future service of the controller way more difficult than it should be. Like if it develops drift for example. A simple redesign of the flex-board could eliminate this by moving the w2w to the center and run it up between the wireless ants. It might have room to use a single ribbon this way. (would loose the Tester feature) But that way the tape wouldnt need removed should you ever need to replace your joys. or button caps. The price of this kit + a controller is close to that of a refurbished elite controller or even more than a used first gen elite controller. It never hurts to think about serviceability. Anyways Great product if you already have a spare controller laying about. It might be worth the extra few bucks to get an actual elite series as they are fully serviceable and can be exchanged for new ones while under warranty should they break.
