Handle Grips

I'm pleasantly surprised by these grips. They were easy to apply and have some wiggle room for messing up the application. After playing with them on for a week, I decided I wanted to stretch out the corners a little more because I'd accidentally left a wrinkle, and even a week later, I could gently peel up a corner and reapply. The adhesive still sticks perfectly. This is personal preference, but these grips look most natural when you stretch and wrap them fairly tautly around the curves. It also helps you avoid wrinkles. As someone with tiny hands, these are more comfortable than a case, since they don't add as much bulk. They add just enough cushion while remaining low profile, and the grippiness is better than the smoother TPU of a lot of grip cases out there.

Fits great and feels wonderful!! I no longer feel like the deck is gonna go flying out of my hands lol. The corners where the front and back meets are a little irritating to get straight but it isnt the worst thing in the world. I cut a little of the excess off. They should oribably be designed with a cut in between them rather than a curve. Also yhe strong rubbery smell has stayed after 3 months of use but I like smells like that 😅

I love these a bunch! I have trouble regulating heat, so either I'm cold and holding smooth things is difficult, or I'm hot and I'm sweating (also making things difficult to hold). The quality of the grips are really good! They are strong, and the texture is not too overwhelming or uncomfortable. It fits really well. I do wish, however, that the edges weren't so squared off. I am planning on trying to trim them down soon, but my biggest sensory issue is that everything on my deck has a soft, rounded edge to it. Now all my buttons with the grips are sharper and have more of an edge. It doesn't hurt at all, just a bit uncomfortable. My only other note is that the track pad covers I did not add. They are too think to receive signal through, which is kinda disappointing to me, cause they really display the pastel/bright wave pattern the best. I did "customize" mine a little by cutting the palm pad pieces where the shell seam meets. I typically do a lot of modding and editing so my devices so I need easier access to taking the shell off. Other than those two things, these grips are truly pretty worth it! Comfortable, nice texture, help me with holding the steam deck comfortably and easily, and a really good print quality! I haven't tried removing them yet, but if I do for any reason I'll update my review.

Texturally, I hate the feel of slick vinyl skins and gummy silicone covers, so I was looking for another way to customize the look of my steam deck. This seemed like a good compromise. Pros: - I like the feel of the honeycomb texture and the soft grip. So it met my criteria of not feeling like vinyl or silicone. I feels like a good quality material. - I really like the design, it’s hard to find cute steam deck gear. - The instructions warn you to make sure you get rid of air bubbles when applying. It’s not easy. But I’ll consider that against me because and not them, they put a lot of instructions on the best way to apply everything to avoid that. -the grips are repositionable RIGHT AFTER YOU APPLY THEM, so you don’t have to get it right on the first try. Cons: - as cute as the trackpad stickers are, they make the trackpads unusable. You need a heavy touch, which causes a ton of accidental clicks. I think it’d be better if the trackpad stickers did not have the foam layer the rest of the set did. -the grip stickers don’t meet up around the edge and there’s a gap (see photo #3). This gap feels annoying on my palms and I wish there was some kind of filler sticker to go in there. Overall… sadly I’m probably going to take them off. I was almost willing to compromise with getting thinner trackpad covers and keeping the rest, but the more the gap rubs against my palms, the more I can’t stand it, unfortunately.

Really solid grips and adds a bit character to the steam deck plus it still fits in case that comes with a steamdeck can be a little trickey to apply apply just right though

Terrible chemical smell that will not go away after more than a week sitting in open air. I've tried 91% isopropyl alcohol, soap and water, heat, and claro wipes to no avail. Seam in the grips makes them uncomfortable Touchpad stickers are so thick the touchpad doesnt work once applied. Thumbstick covers are ok but make the sticks too tall for the carrying case to close with the velcro strap without the sticks being pressed down I like the look of them and the added grip, but the toxic fumes stink up the whole room and give me headaches. Edit: I let these air out in my garage adhesive side up for over a month and they still REEK

I bought these for a day 1 lcd a few years ago and now again for an Oled. They are the best. Any other “grips” on Amazon are glorified stickers, while these are rubber. Touchpads are still very usable, which is hard to believe with the 1/8in of rubber. They fit perfectly and stick on great as well. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a grippy texture for the touchpads. I use a jsaux mod case wont be using the hand grips. But the back buttons and trigger stickers are so much more comfortable now vs the slick design valve used.

I had an issue. I wanted to add some grip and girth to the Steam Deck. I have big hands, the unit needs to be gripped in a non-traditional way and there's a lot more weight to hold for hours on-end than a Game Boy. I also got a free (very nice) carrying case with my order, so I didn't want anything that would make my Steam Deck not fit in it. It does indeed fit in the carrying case with this grip installed. Installation was a question mark that I eventually figured out the answer to. The video included on a link in the packaging is for the last version of this product, so the big side pieces (the only hard part) were my own calculation. I figured it out, it fits great, and it helps my massive hands hold my Steam Deck without it sliding. On the side pieces, there are gaps that feel super weird on your palms. That feeling went away for me and I don't notice it anymore, but I saw that one reviewer here cut up the track pad stickers and filled in the gap. I like the idea, I don't care enough to mod it in that way. All in all, I really like it. It is a very cheap and slim upgrade to an already miraculous device, and it DOES indeed still fit in the included case that came with my unit.

I’m very disappointed. First, I bought this expecting a plain black textured sticker, but the design wasn’t what I had in mind. The bigger issue is that the size and cut don’t fit the Steam Deck properly, making it difficult to apply.

these look awesome, feel awesome, but there are two components i'd call great and one i'd call unusable great: the hand and shoulder button grips, they're very solid and thick, and feel premium with strong adhesion. i've used them for a few weeks now and i'm always impressed holding them and with how much grip they add unusable: the touch pad stickers, they are responsive enough to the touch, but sometimes i would find them not inputting small increments of movement, also the texture makes it grippy which is counterintuative to the use of the touch pad in the first place, so instead of a smooth mouse like movement, it's like rubbing your hand on concrete and feels horrible. i took these off after a week when i realised they're just bad

I wasn’t sure about this but having now tried it, I love it. It actually looks nice on my oled and the grip is sooo nice and comfortable, even the trackpad feels nice. I did have some issues where the trackpad did not register movements, but I sorted that out from taking the cover off and putting it on but softly and now works great. So don’t press hard when putting it on. The trigger also seemed like it would not stick on, but again, press and hold on it and it will stay on. Overall am glad you can take off and put on again and after a couple of hours playing, they are still on. Yes there is a smell but it goes away, it’s rubber after all and it’s not in your face unless you’re 2cm near it. Overall am really happy with the product.

La pose a été plutôt facile pour moi. Le rendu est super beau et c'est plus confortable pour jouer ! Comme je l'ai vu dans les commentaires, je confirme que les pads sont moins réactifs mais personnellement, ça m'arrange car je ne les utilise pas et leur sensibilité d'origine était plutôt gênante à mon goût. Je recommande à 100% !

La textura es muy buena y su instalación muy fácil de realizar. Le da un toque único y agresivo a la Deck. Y el olor? Para nada!!! Súper recomendado.
