eXtremeRate Textured Green HOPE Programable Remap Kit for Xbox Series X/S Controller, Upgrade Boards & Redesigned Back Shell & Side Rails & Back Buttons for Xbox Core Controller

Instructions can be found on YouTube, just search ExtremeRate, only tool you will need is a solder iron and solder. Definitely don’t recommend for beginners, super small solder points but with a little practice with a solder iron and you will definitely be able to do it. Way faster to reprogram the “paddles” than any other controller on the market including the Elite Controllers. Takes less than 5 seconds to reprogram your paddles, just flip a switch on back of the controller to enter program mode.

I purchased this after my scuff prestige paddles broke for the 5th time, and I could no longer purchase replacement paddles online. The price seemed like a no brainer as I could do the soldering work, and had old controllers lying around. If you dont know how to solder this isnt for you, but if you do, or are willing to learn, its worth it. As for the installation, it was easy and straight forward. The one complaint I had was that I think there must have been an issue with my test board. When I finished I only had 2 lights come on, however after rechecking multiple times my solder joints were secure, so I said forget it Im testing the controller and put it all together. Low and behold every feature works fine. It was a frustrating point that it had me chasing ghost to try to figure out what the problem was, but the satisfaction of being able to say you did it yourself outweighs any of it. As far as use goes, the controller itself is very slick. It gets slippery when picking up and setting down the controller repeatedly (ie watching YouTube, twitch, etc), however when you are gaming you dont notice any issues. Can always just use a random casual controller when doing casual things. This isnt a big issue however, must nitpicking every possible thing I could think a downside would be. If this was a concern I would say buy the textured one? The buttons feel very clicky and responsive. I love the feel of them. They are much nicer to use then any paddles Ive tested. Ive got pretty big hands, and have no issue with button positioning and being able to use them all without compromise. Another big plus about the feel, which I initially worried might had been a thing, was the fitment. Alot of aftermarket diy kits, as in many fields, have an issue with fitment being seamless. This is just that though. I have no issues with seams or loose pieces. The build quality is top notch as well. All in all a great product that I enjoy using more than my past scuff controller or elites.

It broke my controller during the installation. Video instructions not clear.

Everything worked as expected. Buttons feel great. Only thing is I’m used to the lower paddles on my Xbox elite 2 controller so these paddles are quite high in comparison. It would be perfect imo if they were more closely placed with those paddles in mind so all the paddle controls stay consistent no matter what controller you use and it would make switching between controls more seamless and less clunky feeling.

Muy bueno pero en un principio no funcionaba. Luego de 5 días funciono al 100%

As other reviews mention, after installing this kit, several keys do not work. In my case, not even the remapping worked. (Its easy to install, but note I have plenty of experience working with Electronics/Robotics and soldering) But the worst is the support given by the seller. To make the story short, after installing the kit (and then removing it), the controller (Brand new controller that came with my Xbox Series S) stopped working. Of course, installing this voids your warranty, but I still brought the controller and the kit to an authorized Microsoft Repair center for diagnostics, after troubleshooting, the technician found the kit had a Short circuit (They seem to dont do QA to their products), the issue caused the main logic board on the controller to die. The short circuit was between 2 points on different points of the flex board, but they problem was somewhere on the traces.. so it was a manufacturing issue, so this company probably never test their product before shipping After contacting the seller, with diagnostic and the issue found by a certified technician, they turn very hostile, and after requesting to be accountable for their issue, they stop replying. (Also note you can only contact them via Social Media, not even an official email, ticket system or Customer support, they reply to you every 2-3 days). I have already contacted Amazon to conduct an investigation on this seller.
