eXtremeRateWhite Replacement Faceplate Front Housing Shell with Thumbstick Accent Rings for Xbox One Elite Remote Controller Model 1698 - Controller NOT Included

This is a great looking faceplate for the Xbox One Elite Controller, really like the black paint splatter on top of the orange.I needed to fix the analog stick drift on my controller so thought I might as well give it a bit of a makeover while it’s apart. I decided to change the faceplate and also change the ABXY buttons to coloured buttons. If you just want to change the faceplate it’s a very easy job using the included tools. Can’t comment on durability yet but very happy with the fit.

Although it's value for money, looks and feels great. Unfortunately it didn't fit my series 1 elite controller when trying to fit it.

I should preface this review with that, for the price, this is an absolute steal for changing up your Elite controller, and far cheaper than alternatives.The product looks/feels great, and has a quality feel finish to it - slightly smoother than the default plate. It's extremely easy to attach, and fits snugly to the controller. Edit: Have to say, it's not as flush as the original - the start and back buttons are a little depressed - nothing major but noticeable.I gave it 4/5 stars, as there is very slight cosmetic damage (see picture), and much, much smaller on the negatives is there is a bit of a shadow from the "teeth" which grip the plastic housing around the thumbsticks (see photo). However, that is almost guaranteed to be because the product is white rather than black, but I thought it was worth mentioning.All in all, for the price, I'd highly recommend this - I have the Sunset Overdrive edition Xbox One, and had been contemplating buying a custom white Elite controller (for over £150) just to get it matching. This is the much better, and saner, option.I'll probably update this review in the future, after I've accrued some significant playtime on it.EDIT: After playing for a few days, the white has already started to yellow...and I made sure to use hand sanitiser before playing every time. Big shame.

A quick note, changing the front plate of your controller will require you to puncture a hole in the sticker beneath the battery. It took me longer than I care to admit to find the missing screw.Now, the face-plate looks great and I absolutely loved it. It felt smooth and personally I found it more enjoyable to hold than the factory face-plate that came with the controller.But, it took only one month before cracks happened around the mounting screws above the rumbles. And after 3 months, it was shattered (again where the rumbles are). I do not know if it because :- I had a weak product- I tighten the screws too tightOverall, it looked great but didn't last that long.But given the price I will most likely order another one and try to see if the product last longer if the screws are a bit looser.

I had to trim the screw holes to get it to fit flush

I like it it’s has a nice feel but the paint or what ever she shell is covered with came off after slowly and kept on falling off it I would like a refund because this is unacceptable and was planing to buy another for my other controllers I NEED A REFUND OR MONEY BACK THIS IS BASICALLY A SCAM it’s not made to last and is not worth

Bought to renew a broken elite controller where the original plates screw holes had disintegrated away.Good quality, perfect fit and looks and feels great. Very pleased.

Actually a really nice touch for the price. Though its not a perfect fit, and on a premium controller that's... annoying. Distracting even. Though I did, after a second attempt and some painstakingly careful fitting, get it to installed so that the seams on each side feel flush, which was the problem initially. Honestly, its good enough, but takes some time to get it seated and in place perfectly (whereas the original cover just drops perfectly into position).
