L2 R2 Trigger Hand Grip Shell Controller Protective Case for Sony PS Vita 1000 (Black)

This product feels pretty good in my hand and fits on a acrylic vita display stand. I have fairly large hands and it works well.

The product is very cool, great purchase. Something to improve on is its sturdiness, some parts, specially in the front part, are kind of fragile. You just have to be careful and everything is good. Recommended

The addition of L2/R2 buttons is great for playing PS1 games. The open back makes it so you can still use the touch portion of the vita if you want to keep the grip on. I get a cramp in my right hand when using it for a couple hours so I take it out every now and then. My advice for the clips is to use something small and rigid like a stiff toothpick and pick each tab individually to open the case, it goes pretty smoothly and you wont damage them this way.

Good for the price

The L2 and R2 triggers work GREAT. Games that rely on them (such as the PSX game Panzer Front, while playing on vita inside Adrenaline PSP emulator) are 100% playable now. Grip is very comfortable as well. Great product and does exactly as advertised. This makes the vita the ultimate retro gaming handheld and the true “PlayStation Portable”

It is unfortunate that this seems to be the only style of l2 r2 grip available for the ps vita 1000, as it is significantly less comfortable to hold than the vita itself. The triggers are nice to have, but just not worth the comfort trade off these are super uncomfortable. They should be 1/3rd of the price that they are.

Hand cramps within 3 seconds of holding it. Avoid it.

The shoulder triggers are great and feel exactly like a “real” r2/l2 button. Highly recommended, even though the build, particularly the front cover, is a bit flimsy. Once installed you don’t really notice it.

I have big hand so handling a vita is pretty uncomfortable without a grip this grip fits perfectly and feels good in the hands.

PROS: -Way more comfortable than without it -Having L2/R2 triggers is a must for PSone games, and remote play of PS3/PS4 -Looks really nice on the system -All the ports are easily accessed CONS: -Will NOT close completely if youve a front/back/both screen protector. Only the side snaps work. I havent had it long enough to say whether or not itll be good enough and last. It does feel secure enough, but if it fails I will update this -The trigger buttons are very meh. They have a long travel distance. But, they work. Just takes some getting used to. -While its nice that this isnt overly bulky, it does feel very flimsy and delicate. -Its thicc where it shouldnt be. The Home, Start, and Select buttons are a bit too receded. Still accessible, but a bit annoying. More so with the Start/Select buttons. The Home button is more bearable since it bigger. -Because of the hand grips and trigger buttons, this roughly doubles the thickness of the Vita, and in turn makes it unable to use a standard travel case. I have to use a Mumba hard case that was made to fit a Nintendo Switch and a couple extra joycons etc. SUMMARY: It fine if youve got a screen protector, but a lot better if you dont. It should also be cheaper. Like, $15 total. Ive attached a fair amount of photos to help you decide for yourselves since this listing doesnt even show the trigger buttons, and someone answered a question incorrectly saying it fits with a glass screen protector. UPDATE: Added a few pictures. It turns out you CAN close it all the way with a screen protector, but it takes a decent amount of force. I said to heck with it and figured the flimsy plastic would break, but I got it closed. You can see how its barely staying closed. But, its been a few days with use and it hasnt broken (yet?) so I figured I would update this. So in other, it might or might not break if you get it to close all the way.
