KontrolFreek FPS Freek Galaxy Purple for PlayStation 4 (PS4) and PlayStation 5 (PS5) | Performance Thumbsticks | 1 High-Rise, 1 Mid-Rise | Purple

Really pleased with these KontrolFreek thumb grips for my son’s PlayStation 5 controller. They’ve helped improve his grip and control, and he says they make gaming more comfortable. Great quality and definitely worth it.

Nice product.

Like many others I purchased the Kontrol Freeks in order to improve my aim in FPS shooters, particularly modern warfare, I am a decent player with a 2.23 kd in warzone and my accuracy is currently averaging 28% accuracy in multiplayer. I haven't had a long enough time to properly see the difference in accuracy % wise but these are my thoughts on Kontrol Freeks thus far: - I find the high-rise stick too high, unless you play claw, I found the distance my thumb has to travel from the top of the stick to the square, X, triangle and circle buttons too great, which affected my reload, jump and switch weapon speed - As such I switched to the mid-rise stick on the right analog which seems to work better for me and is a good middle ground. The extra height means you have less resistance from the stick itself which is nice, and allows you to have a more accurate feel and control over the analog, this effect is greater with the high-rise, but like I said I found it too high so I am sticking with the mid-rise for now - There are two things which I really do not like about the Kontrol Freeks, 1) If you push your finger around the edge of the Kontrol Freek they rotate around the analog stick and don't feel firmly in place (this may be an issue with my older PS4 controller, as such I didn't dock any stars), this was really noticeable when the Kontrol Freek was on the left analog for movement to the effect it was unplayable. 2) The plastic "hooks" the fasten the Kontrol Freek to the analog sticks were catching on the circular area around the ps4 analog stick, I had to file down the plastic and now the Kontrol Freeks are not catching, but this isn't something I would expect to have to do, especially considering the price of the product. Overall I feel they have added comfort to my playing, and I do believe my accuracy is improving (bear in mind it takes at least a few decent sessions before you get used to them, perhaps longer), but I think they are overpriced for what they are made of and I am not impressed that I had to file them down so that they fit properly, resulting in a four star product.

It's all good, came on expected day and really neat. It actually helped me play cod better now. And it's good for the price. Perfectly fits my ps5 controller

I was incredibly skeptical about whether these things actually made any difference whats so ever. I was finally convinced to try them after watching my fair share of Youtubers who were all endorsing KontrolFreeks. They came packaged exactly as in the picture. All you do is pull them out, and push them down onto the analog sticks (small on the left, tall on the right). One thing I did see, is to check that there is a little 'P' engraved on the side of them. This means that they are made for PlayStation, and you're good to go. If not, DO NOT force them onto your controller as you could permanently damage it. And those things are expensive! Once they were on, at first I thought I would not be able to get on with them. It does feel a little unnatural and just a bit weird to what you're used to. However, I urge you to stick with it! A month down the line, they are ridiculous comfy and feel far more natural than before. Having big hands, these things definitely put less strain on your hands if you are playing for quite a long time. The main thing that people that buy these for is the actually gaming performance. I can vouch that they do in fact improve your aim! One thing you'll notice when you first jump into the game is that you'll need to whack up the sensitivity, because it feels extremely slow compared to before. But in doing this, give you the extra ability to whip round and shoot someone who's shooting you in the back. You can definitely win gun fights that you wouldn't have won before. As well as this, the extra length of the stick (hehe) gives you added accuracy to pick people off. For the price that these are, I completely recommended them to any 'FPS Freek'. They certainly pay for themselves in reducing the rage!

Very good - they do not slip off.

Good grip comfortable value for money

Personally, I think they’re a gimmick but that’s just me , you need to make your own opinion.

Great thumb pads that aren’t useful for just FPS games. Wife has been using these for a few weeks playing action adventures and RPGs. Takes a little bit of getting used to but once you do then going back to the stock sticks feels like a huge downgrade. Risers make the movement of the sticks feel much smoother and the recessed pads have a good grip. Wish they had more color varieties for this model but it’s not a deal breaker. I’ve used the Lotus pads too which are fine but these have a better thumb feel.

Great fit

I'm unsure what a few people are doing to their KontrolFreek gear, but I've had these for over a year and I play COD about 20hours a week. These sticks have stood against a lot, and still show no signs of quitting on me. The high rise cover is perfect for FPS and fine tuning accurate shots on the go. I have been a loyal customer of KontrolFreek since 2010 and I don't plan on turning my back anytime soon. Great quality for a good price.

J’utilise les KontrolFreek FPS Freek Galaxy Purple depuis quelques jours sur manette PlayStation pour des jeux FPS comme Call of Duty et la différence est clairement perceptible dès les premières parties, une précision beaucoup plus haute. Surtout à moyenne et longue distance. Les micro-ajustements sont plus naturels, ce qui aide vraiment pour les duels et le tracking des ennemis. Après un court temps d’adaptation, ma précision s’est nettement améliorée, très bonne qualité. Au niveau de la matière, c’est plutôt agréable au toucher. Les pouces de glisse pas même avec les mains un peu moite.

Personally, I would recommend it. So far it has been pretty comfortable, movement of joysticks feels smoother because of the height of the mentioned thumbsticks. As for the performance, I found my aim, etc to be better. But it's not like instant success. You will feel a little weid in the starting but when you get used to it, play for an hour or so you will start to see improvement in your gameplay. It also helps in controlling your recoil/aim. *comparitively to the default PS4 thumbsticks. PS: I have been using them for about a month now and so far haven't encountered any issues like grip falling off from the plastic. I use it for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, mainly for the Battle Royal mode, Blackout. UPDATE 2021: I bought this in 2019, and after 1.5years of use it broke. Since then I have been playing with Inferno kontrol freeks but they aren't as good as FPS Galaxy. So after 2 years I am ordering this product again. I currently use kontrol freeks for mainly playing warzone and other fps games.
