Get the Xbox One thumbsticks. They are really nice!

I got mine from Amazon (4 thumbsticks): http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00JQX91HU

You'd be better off watching YouTube reviews of these various products.


None of which might fit great now that the rubber on your controller is actually falling apart. Might require some hot glue or something else if you want them to stay in place.

A lot of people eventually switch to xbox style sticks, not just because the material doesn't fall apart but because it's actually a much better design. These compared to the DS4 sticks is night and day in terms of control and your thumb not sliding all over the place.

Not that hard to install. Hardest thing about taking the controller apart is getting the shell separated for the first time and the fact that the triggers and springs might fall out, so just work on a clean table where you'll be able to find the little springs. Watch videos on how to take it apart.

First I bought this: X-Box One thumpsticks for DS4

It was way better than the original sticks. 2 days ago, I replaced them with aluminium ones: Aluminium sticks

It's a bit slippery, hard to grasp. I think I'll put xbone ones back. I've been using those for months and they were great.

u/I_am_a_bear_AMA_ · 3 pointsr/PS4

It's fabulous. Hibernation is greatly underrated.

The sticks I bought cost more than I remember... I'm not sure if they went up or I can't math.

Here's the link anyway. (I'm on mobile so I hope it works.)

4x Original Black New Xbox ONE Controller Analogue Thumbsticks Thumb Stick by E-MODS GAMING http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JQX91HU/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_34N-ub1S1TQX4 this is where I got them, but the automatic shopping bot provided by reddit that will post directly after me will probably find you a better deal.

For start, turn off any and all forms of auto-aiming where possible, as it's inconsistent in different games and really only helps if you're very casual and have blocks for hands. Start your aiming sensitivity on a lowish setting, then increase it by a notch every few games until you're at the highest one you can comfortably snipe with.

Also do yourself a favour and get yourself a pair of Xbone analogue stick caps and put them in your DualShock 4. It's very cheap and easy to do, sticks and instructions here:

Say what you will about Microsoft, but they understand gamepad ergonomics far better than Sony do... the reason that the left stick is high on their controllers is because that's a more natural resting position for your thumb that causes less strain when pressing the stick forward for long periods of time, which is what you're doing in most games, most of the time. Getting Xbone caps won't give you that but it will give you the other smart little touches they added.

Look at this photo and note the differences between those sticks and the default ones:
http://i.imgur.com/SJCIyVB.jpg

Concaves: it's harder to pull something than to push it, and pulling something without a proper grip is even harder again. You get a proper grip by applying force perpendicular to the object you're pulling, not sliding parallel against the sides. The convex stick tops that Sony uses ensures that there's always a degree of sliding against it, which is obviously not as effective as getting a proper hold into a concave like you can in the Xbone sticks.

Ledge: there's also a hard "ledge" at the outer edge of the concave that makes sure your finger doesn't slip off the stick, as opposed to the soft bump that allows more slippage on Sony's sticks.

Textured edges: these are there to ensure that you have as much grip as possible while moving he stick up and down, as your thumb doesn't push/pull from directly below or above the stick, but off to the side at an angle. While Sony's sticks have a texture too, the softer blunt bumps found on it will never allow as much grip as the harder sharp texture on MS's sticks.

You're probably thinking these are tiny things that won't make a difference to your aiming, but in terms of ergonomics, those little things all work together to make a pretty big difference. Try the yoga mission in GTA V with both sets of sticks and it'll become very obvious which ones allow a better, more precise grip.

I can't recommend these more: Click

I have changed them on both of my DS4 and they are awesome. You can actually get them cheaper if you don't feel like spending $15 on them. Check sites like http://tinydeal.com or http://dx.com

u/legacy3233 · 1 pointr/wiiu

Fantastic, thank you! Going to pick up some of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JQX91HU

u/Malik112099 · 1 pointr/xboxone

This happens to all of mine. Eventually it will start hanging on the outer shell and not return to center by itself. I bought these. Takes 10 minutes to swap out.

u/EdwardMowinckel · 1 pointr/RocketLeague

You might be interested in knowing that most analogue pots (the things that the analog joysticks are put onto) are reverse compatible with other analog sticks.

That is to say, if you have a controller you prefer for hand feel, and another you prefer for analogue stick feel, odds are you can buy the analogue joysticks online and swap 'em out. It's like eight screws, and they pop right off.

On this Amazon page, you can see someone replaced the PS4 joysticks with the XBox One joysticks.

My 360 controller's joystick broke, and I replaced with the joystick from a Duke. It works!

u/ilikedatunahere · 1 pointr/NintendoSwitch

I used to use these in my PS4 controllers.

E-MODS GAMING® 4x Replacement Black Analogue Thumbsticks for Xbox One/ PS4 Controllers

After looking up the replacement sticks specifically for the Switch Pro on Amazon, it looks like they share the same design but the skirt size and depth might not work. If they aren’t just right, they’ll come in contact with the rocker or the casing and be useless.

u/sawdey21 · 1 pointr/PS4

I put the xbox one thumb sticks into both of my DS4's and couldn't be happier. They can be found for about the same price as a pack of grips

Edit: these are the ones I purchased http://www.amazon.com/GAMING®-Original-Xbox-Controller-Analogue-Thumbsticks/dp/B00JQX91HU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1462534405&sr=8-1&keywords=xbox+one+thumbsticks

u/hhhealthy · 1 pointr/PS4

yup. i've grabbed this multiple times (they sell a 4x pack too http://www.amazon.com/Original-Black-Xbox-Controller-Analogue-Thumbsticks/dp/B00JQX91HU)

i've converted 6 controllers so far for myself and friends and these are the go-to sticks.

u/TheEternal21 · -1 pointsr/PS4

It's too late for him at this point. The covers will only fit properly on undamaged thumbsticks. The only solution now is for him to get a new set of thumbsticks on Amazon.

I recommend aluminum ones:

But if you prefer rubber, you can't go wrong with X1 versions:
