PlayVital Thumb Grip Caps for Steam Deck, Silicone Thumbsticks Grips Joystick Caps for Steam Deck - Samurai & Guardian Edition

Im not sure if I got sent the incorrect caps or if they are not actually for the Steam Deck, but they will definitely not fit. I ordered the raised dots version and they are fine for the smaller switch joysticks so I ended up putting them on my kids switch OLED. They appear to be decent quality and fairly grippy. I would like to see them made out of a slightly softer material to add grip and be a little less slippery like the skull grip caps I currently have on my deck. If you have a switch and need caps then they arent a bad choice, but if you need a set to fit the Steam Deck then keep looking.

Good grips. They can slip off if you just throw your deck In a bag. Make sure they are on tight.

This was purchased for use with my Steam Deck. As there were no reviews at the time of my purchase, I took the bullet so you can make an educated purchase. First off, the Capacitive Touch Sensors do work with the caps on. Also, with the caps on and no protective case, they will fit in the Valve provided Steam Deck Case without depressing and clicking the sticks. Will update if I ever add a protective case. Design: I purchased primarily for the Diamond Grain but have ended up using the Crack Bomb design. Reason for this being, the Diamond Grain has a more domed form where as the Crack Bomb is more concave and seems to hug the sticks better. Have not had them shift or come off yet, but I havent put that much time into them. Installation of the caps is not as easy as the seller suggests in their pictures, they will not snap on immediately as suggested. Turn them inside out and slowly flip the edges down in a clockwise or counter clockwise motion, if a side gets folded under, just rotate the caps and that should be enough to unfold them. Be weary, too many attempts could stretch out the caps as they are not the most pliable silicone. Additional Note: Although the product description does state this was designed for Steam Deck and is NOT compatible with other controller or console, these are definitely compatible with and fit PERFECTLY on the Nintendo Switch Joycons and I absolutely believe these were designed primarily for Joycons. For $9.99, it was an ok buy. I dont regret it yet.

Grips felt comfortable and high quality. They were almost too small for an Xbox controller, but I found that after a few tries of turning them inside out and making sure the edges wrapped down around/underneath they fit nicely (albeit rather snug). I’m sure they’d fit wonderfully on a steam deck/switch. 8.5/10 product, cheers!

I love the design of the Steam Decks analog sticks, but they seem to be purpose-engineered to attract dust, so these covers are a necessity for me, since I was getting tired of swabbing the sticks every day to clean them. The covers are a pleasant texture and not too thick, as well as being fairly grippy. Only issue is that they can be a pain to install, but for the price, you cant go wrong with these. I might even get more to use for my other controllers.

Definitely a must have if you own a steam deck. Will be adding to my Xbox controllers

I tried the ones from Skull & Co but theyre too loose. Tried the JSAUX ones but theyre too smooth. These are perfect. Just wish the hex pattern was concave instead of convex and even thats a minor problem since they grip so well

Installed 2x caps on my steam deck. Installation instructions were a bit confusing. I went to their website for an installation video. Followed the video for a smooth install. I find I use the left stick mostly pushing forward from the bottom of the cap. These caps provide ample cushion compared to the stock Deck stick. It is a bit odd these are only sold in packs of 4 when most controllers only have 2 sticks. $10 for 2 caps would seem too expensive; outrageous. But $10 for 4 caps seems reasonable. Too bad most of us will only ever use 2 of those 4 caps. Im sure I have another controller lying around that could utilize those extra caps.

Makes the joysticks on the Steam Deck much more comfortable to use for long gaming sessions.

Very cute! Stretched for a perfect fit!
