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

This is by far one of the most catfish items Ive ever bought off Amazon. This thing should cost 5$ at best. Plastic is flimsy and Im 100% positive if I accidentally drop it on any kind of solid surface it will shatter. Its only saving grace is that it will do what its designed to do... Ill be searching for another case and returning this ASAP.

I definitely like that it seems like it works well the big flaw is the little tiny plastic clips that break if they had a different design it would be perfect disappointed

This grip definitely does not deserve to be this expensive. This is a cheap Chinese product made out of cheap feeling plastic. HOWEVER, seeing as this is one of the few grips for the 1000 model that has triggers, I think its still worth the purchase. My vita fit perfectly with no issues and it feels great in the hand. I think many people have an issue with holding the Vita because of the back touch pad, but this eliminates that issue entirely. The most important thing though, is the L2 and R2 triggers. These are a GODSEND for playing PS1 titles and PS4 remote play. All these triggers do is push on the back touchpad a little, but its so much better than trying to actually use that god awful touchpad yourself. The triggers feel pretty good, theyre responsive, and Ive not had any issues with them so far. This more or less completely eliminates one of the core issues of the Vita, and for that alone I think its worth the purchase.

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 love everything about this purchase. With some raised thumbgrips, my vita looks like it is in its final form.

Went over my screen protector just fine

Better than expected. Buttons work as intended, comfortable grip

Like many, I found long play sessions on my Vita OLED model a little uncomfortable and wanted a bit more area to grip. This case did the trick, and with the triggers, I can play my older PS1 titles without the inconsistency of using the back touch pad corners unaided as L2/R2 buttons (which all too often I would fail to hit just right). The case by itself isn’t terribly sturdy, and removal of the Vita requires great care so as not to damage the fragile clips that snap together to enclose the Vita. But once installed, it’s a snug fit, and would probably take the hit of a light drop and keep the Vita from being damaged. Probably. I’d have preferred a rubberized or silicone option in this form factor, even without L2/R2 triggers, but the only option like that is no longer manufactured, and sells used at obscene prices. This works fine and didn’t break the bank.

It is a great case. Definitely needed to play playstation 4 or playstation 3 on the go on the vita plus theres just some games on the vita that benefits from the triggers. My only complaint is i feel that the hinges feel weak but when its closed up i dont see any issues. I definitely recommend this case. I just wish i could find a metal version or a stronger plastic version.

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.
