Scuf Universal Thumbstick Grips Review-Kontrol Freeks KILLER?
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 11. 2022
- Corsair's pro controller company Scuf, who I have reviewed several of their gamepads, has now released snap on thumbstick caps similar to Kontrol Freeks however these are $2 cheaper, come with 2 additional caps, and most importantly are fully universal...well within reason as we will see in the video. There are still 2 aspects I believe Kontrol Freeks still holds the crown, but both companies have great thumbstick caps.

Wait a min, you said "Smacked the back of my sack like a black Cadillac"...that's too good to just gloss over. Haven't finished the video yet I just had to stop and appreciate the brilliance of that
Thanks, just kind of popped in my head lol
Hahaha 🤣😂
Was thinking the same thing this guy is funny 😋
What did he sayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?
Not even a minute later he then says "you snap it, wrap it, then clap it" lmao
Just bought some. Hope they work well, good review
you are so underrated man. you deserve a million subs and views at least by now!
Thanks brother!
Yeah just bought my g7se based on his review and more than happy with it..."beastly thumbsticks" Indeed
May I know what poster board or whatever it may be called you have for the black controller holder on your wall???
Did you see that Hyperkin is bringing back the 360 controller for the Series X/S? Might snag one.
Would you please kind sir, spend a little of your time to review these thumb-sticks on Razer Wolverine ultimate/ V2 chroma and the newest V2 pro on PS5…because by far they have the biggest thumb-stick i have ever seen…Thank you in advance, Captain.
Ima buy them bro ima love them I already know if I love KF but I want my scuf to all match so it’s nice they have them
Hey dude I don’t know if you see this, I hope you do . What is your recommendation for best controller setup for xbox series s/x to play fps games. Thanx in advance 🖤
My dude keeping us up to date. As a 36 year old who has been a demon on the sticks since Goldeneye n64 older age definitely gives you a handicap lol. Especially being a tattoo artist for 20+ years my wrists and hands have taken a absolute beating 🤣 no pun intended. (U know i still love you pamela handerson) but i noticed i have to have grips etc to help with hand fatigue and my hands not being quite what they used to be.
I can relate my dude
I'm coming out with something like this and boy I tell ya my game improved I play call of duty and I be going crazy only have a prototype I've been using for a year but working on patent
will this work on the Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma Wired Gaming Pro Controller
Do you think that this can be used in the steamdeck?
Man you just earned a sub ! Real fast question.. I got my self extreme rate ps5 DualSense full option.. but I really find the dual sense very bulky.. what of all custom controllers do you use yourself the most ( because I think we got same hand size ) or would you recommend for someone who finds the DualSense to bulky for longer game sessions ?
PS5: Aim V3, Battle Beaver with the button placement in the review and increased thumbstick tension, HYPR. Xbox: Elite Series 2, Hex Advanced, Scuf Instinct Pro
@@GamerHeavenOfficial huge thanks man ! ♥️
I got the same ones that he's reviewing in this video for Christmas. I popped them on, and I think the universal mounting system is a genius design that the likes of Kontrolfreek could learn from, although I wouldn't be surprised if it was patented by Scuf. As for the quality of the caps, the tops are pretty smooth and not as grippy as I would like, but they are saved from uselessness by the textured sides which is the only way your thumbs are going to get any real control of your thumbsticks using these.
how squishy are these caps? im looking for caps with alot of padded rubber because of a hand injury pains my thumb to use a joystick for a while,
@@PowderedNuts They aren't squishy at all. Hard plastic, with a textured part around the outside edge.
@@bonanzabrandon6877 ah, it looks like soft rubber.
thanks for the info, do you know any caps that have a squishy rubber and are universal?
@@PowderedNutskontrolfreeks, not universal but who cares. Just get the ones you need. The rubber is high quality, soft and grippy
Will they fit on scuf sticks ?
Thx for the info i purchased them the day before yesterday and they will be arriving today or tomorrow and can't wait to try them out.
And also thx for the laughter that video was informative and at the same time very funny 😂👍
How are they?
I think they are great.
I've always been using kontrolfreeks and had many of them but the last 2 pairs i used believe it or not look like they melted haha
The green ones from cod for example you can hardly see the picture on the top anymore.
I admit i play most of the day and from time to time i don't even go to sleep so i don't know maybe the warmth of my thumbs haha.
Anyway i highly recommend the scuf universal sticks better than kontrolfreeks and i use them on my xbox series x and also my ps4
@@BennyboyA2btell me bro which the best controll freaks for recoil&aim ?
@@allahisone209 2 be honest i don't use controlfreaks anymore now i'm using some universal ones that i bougt from scuf.
1st you clip on this attachment (which you can use on almost every controller and then you click on the thumbgrips.
There not as high like c lol ntolfreaks but i prefer them because they don't damage your thumbsticks and they don't seem to ware out.
@@allahisone209 if you really want kontrolfreaks then i don't know the name but the part you gotta attach to the thumbsticks is red and the part for your thumb is black with a star in the middle and they were both domed and long.
Those were the best in my opinion and i had quite a few different ones so yeah...
I’m a dome shape player. I like dome shape joysticks. So does anyone got any good recommendations?
Anyone have these? Need to know if they are loose on very small thumb sticks like the switch or steam decks, i have just recieved my rog ally and the ones i bought are too big and loose
Do they work on the razer chroma
Cool, any no name brand hidden gem thumb grips for the DualSense?
God bless.
I have a razer ultimate, and while I like the included razer thumbsticks, I kind of miss the gripiness of my kontrolfreeks i used to use on my xbox controller. Any chance you can try these bad boys out on a razer and let me know if they fit?
I use aceshot thumb grips on my wolverine.
I have a razer ultimate too and I have ps4 kontrol freaks on it which I had to stretch out a little but they fit perfect
@michaellsnett5064
use ps4 / ps5 Kontrol freaks or the best buy ones
yeah i just shove the violently push ps4 KFs on my razer ones
Do they fit on the victrix pro ps5?
Does it work on ASUS ROG ALLY ?
Do the Kontrol Freak fit on the scuf?
Do they fit the steam deck?
Been looking for a pair of controllerfreeks for my razer wolverine v2, does this mean these grips will fit on my controller?
I use ps4 kontrol freeks for the razor controllers And they fit perfect
Gonna sound weird, but the gamer grip is surprisingly nice. I hate sweaty hands during the last circle of any br. It doesn't make your hands sticky or wet, just keeps them from sweating
I use the Omni freaks is there any of them with a similar feel?
Yes, clutch and alphas.
are the tall thumbsticks about the same height as a high rise for kontrolfreeks?
The tall scuf is about as high as a mid kontrolfreek. The shorter scuf is about as high as a low rise KF.
Do they twist / rotate? I've had bad KF's do that, returned to get more snug ones
the scuffs don't rotate at all...the design lets the 3 feet 'clamp down' harder when you snap the top on. it's really an ingenious design for this specific type of application. the 'break' in the ring simply helps facilitate fitment..placing the cap on secures and tightens the assembly
Great video bro, when will the HYPR review drop? I was very adamant on getting a scuf reflex, but the constant bad reviews regarding build quality has really put me off. Trying to decide between the razer wolverine v2 pro and the ps5 dualsense edge, but still trying to find other alternatives and HYPR looks pretty appealing. The 180 day warranty has to be a joke though 💀🤣
Tomorrow or next day. If you can wait a little longer, I am doing a full comparison of all the custom PS 5 controllers on the market
@@GamerHeavenOfficial sounds great, will wait for the notification, all the best
If you don’t like input lag don’t go for Xbox controllers.
@@marvinbecker3153 I can’t use Xbox controller anyways, not a pc gamer yet as I’m trying to save up for a mortgage! Only rocking the Ps5 right now
I've looked through alot of videos and still dk what xbox controller to get lmao. Want one with clicky triggers like the scuf instinct pro, but cheaper. Idk.
honestly the thrustmaster eswap s is a great option if you dont need wireless and only need 2 back buttons
Just get that new back button strike pack
Bro this man’s sarcasm is hilarious, can’t stop laughing or is it clapping? 🤔
What about razor controllers
Hey man can you see if these fit on the new Razer Ps5 controller? Appreciate it
Kevin did Amazon push back your Victrix BFG PS5 controller to the 16th?
Yes :(
@@GamerHeavenOfficial ya it got pushed back on all stores 😔
Till this day this intro still gets me 😂
6:11 Correction
Some Kontrol freaks are universal and will fit in my Xbox X Scuf controller and PS5 controllers
Saw them here first and instantly bought them. 😂 Thanks for the suggestion!
Nice vid i have removable magnetick thumbsticks like elite 2 scuff xbox but cant find thumb grips they look smaller then regular caps?
Universal? I've been using thumb caps interchangably for years across xbox, ps and switch controllers (excluding the joycons), they are all similar sizes the only real differnce is the concave xbox sticks can effect the feel the thumb cap depending on how flexible it is
Nah
Sticks on Xbox controllers way smaller (or narrow?) than sticks on the dualsense.
what about razer controllers
Gamer goo is top tier needed
This guys channel is gold
They might give them the name "Universal", they unfortunately are lacking for some controllers. In fact, my Razer Wolverine V2 doesn't seem to "accept" the grips, probably because the socket is too extended.
Same with my gamesir g7 se. Have to press it down to keep it on
will these work with Nacon Revolution X Controller?
No, kontrol freak do tho.
Thrustmaster eswap s pls
Do these work on the rig nancon revolution x?
Yes, they barely fit though. But its a good fit.
Awesome thanks that’s a relief I just ordered them and was too impatient to wait for an answer!
I've tried so many fucking thumbstick caps, I've got an entire BOX. Guess I'll just have add these to the pile.
Oh, and it's only a matter of time before e621 gets a hold of Kevin's avatar.
Send me a pair in a envelope for my ps4 controller; ))
Will they work on victrix gambit concave sticks?
Pretty dope..
For me Skull & Co thumstick are much better than control freaks. Because they are made from rubber without plastic shell.
3:59
Ouch that looks painful. Poor stick
i dont like thumb caps that go controller to controller all willy nilly.
wait i loved my Kontrol Freeks caps. tell me more
Well you’re in luck my friend, keep watching till the end because I still love my freeks too
Are these way better than control freaks?
It's seems like it's stretching the thumb stick rubber down, I don't like that. 3:57
Mine don’t fit 🫠
I just got these universal sticks and I gotta say they’re not as grippy. More slick but I’m not sure if it’s because they are new? Also for anyone wondering they are not as tall as the tall kontrol freeks
How tall are they? From my understanding they come with a small and a tall one. Are they similar to a mid rise kontrolfreek?
@@S3mj0n it’s in between the mid n long kontrol freek but it feels even smaller because there’s hardly any grip n it’s the size of an actual scuf thumbstick
@Notorious Snipers I gues you are talking about the taller one which is between a midrise and tall kontrolfreek? So the smaller scuf stick is even smaller than a midrise kontrolfreek? Unfortunately they are not available at the moment, but I will definitely try them. Kontrolfreeks where always to wide for my liking and these scuf caps seem to have the diameter of a normal stick.
@@S3mj0n yes the small scufs grips are smaller than the mid sized kontrol freek.
I’ve actually changed my mind about these universal grips. I kind of like them. They need more grip but they also don’t feel oversized n bulky. They feel like it’s a part of the analog stick. With the tall grips my aim feels fast n snappy. There’s a lot of good things about these grips.
@Notorious Snipers nice. I always wanted something between the small and midrise kontrolfreeks and something with less surface area. I hope they are available soon on amazon. I'm currently trying out different kontrolfreeks but none of them feel very good for me personally mostly because of the bigger surface area.
6:11 wtf dude...👀
I hate seeing those plastic claws digging into the thumbstick rubber
Got "catalyst" version, barely usable, central part is completely smooth, and my thumbs glide freely without any grip.
how squishy are these caps? im looking for caps with alot of padded rubber because of a hand injury pains my thumb to use a joystick for a while,
@@PowderedNuts Don't have them anymore, but as far as I remember they are a bit firmer than stock dualsense thumbsticks.
First Like.
:)
I really need a controller with back paddle for my xbox can you donate me 1 ?:)
Can KontrolFreeks fit on the scuf reflex fps?
How to ruin your stock stick by putting this on, look at the PS5 controller, the clips are pushing the rubber down instead of wrapping around it. That's gonna tear that shit right off. Yeah not good man.
👏🏾❤
You won't need that strike pack with my product unless you just have no aiming skill at all
What is it
Adding weight on the tip/top of analog sticks, (especially in the looser ones.. ) it's a stupid idea..
Then again.. they've had to fuck them up in the first place so they could then come up with these gimmick "fixes"..
I guess it all makes sense in the end..
😒
Tbh that added weight is only grams... The weight of the pressure of your thumbs on the sticks would be much more.
@@VeryNijsMan It's nothing to do with the time your finger is controlling the stick, but rather when it's not.
“Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world. ” - An.. old quote, to give you a hint of what I'm on to..
You'd most likely find this issue discussed in some fast paced arcade fighters forums and it's usually called (analog) stick snapback, but surely not limited to those.
There is even a software fix in "DS4Windows" to mitigate this issue in controllers with bad / worn off analog sticks (but that's limited to that software alone afaik.. )
I've had issues in regular adventure games falling off edges of cliffs or other small areas due to the analog stick snapping back when trying to do small adjustments and that was on good controllers with good sticks.
The added weight and the leverage from the stick length and looseness will give you a bad day in certain games or scenarios. And will also add to wearing the sticks faster.
These.. "addon caps" are just the unnecessary fix for a problem than never existed.. They've fucked up the sticks design just so they could then sell you these.. "fixes"
Costin-Mihai, it sounds like you're evaluating a personal use product without having tried it and that always comes across as sweaty and weird
@@WeeWeeJumbo Yeah, I'm evaluating the orbit of an elongated meteoroid around urAnus.. I'm curious if it's about to change orbit or crash into it.. :|
😂👍🖤
You can't put them on a PS5 Scuf Reflex though lmao
The control freaks dont fit on the stock doomed thumb sticks i had to buy another pair of concaved ones to get them to fit
4:00 rip the controller thumbstick rubber
they did NOT send me the fucking module you need to attach them onto. that is insanely cheap and scammy of them.
These things are utter garbage. There's literally zero grip at all, unusable for precise aim. Shameful cashgrab from such a wealthy company.
why do people have to throw in jokes and comedy skits in the reviews, just get to the point keep it simple…
Hey man you got 💩 on ur left eye
I couldn't keep watching....
