They work fantastically well - I haven't had time to test long term durability but the quality of the PCB and membranes are really good. I would recommend using a heat gun to remove the glue for the OEM boards, as it can be difficult to remove them for installation otherwise. Easy to line up and stick on by themselves too. Very solid fit. The cables that run to the daughter board are both very thick and a little shorter than the OEM ones so do take your time to fully seat them. Button response is noticeably quicker and the clicks are tactile - you definitely feel and hear your input registering!

If you like fighting games, get this! It's a game changer

Let's start off with WHY I got this kit: my Steam Deck OLED had a D-Pad that would not register down-left diagonals consistently and the face buttons felt squishy when pressing (the button would not bounce back as well as I liked). Enter this kit. Doing the modification requires some teardown of the Steam Deck. I would strongly suggest to watch the guide that Extremerate has before attempting to see if this is in your skill set. It does not involve any soldering, but does involve some small ribbon cables and undoing the triggers. This mod took me about an hour with testing and some tinkering to make work well. Be warned that this will not make the older PCB for your buttons usable any more, but you can order new kits on iFixit's website. When I initially installed the kit, the down direction on the D-Pad would only go down and to the right. I panicked initially, but this was fixed by loosening one screw by the shoulder button assembly (which does not affect the button but rather how tight the PCB is to the D-Pad). It now works like a champ. The buttons and D-Pad now feel great. I wish the membranes were just a tad softer and the kit came with face buttons that were now just a tad shorter, but that's nitpicking at this point. My buttons don't stick and feel great, and the D-Pad is reliable and feels great. Overall, if you like to do some tinkering and you don't like the stock Steam Deck experience, I'd say go for this. It really is transformative!

Facile à a installer si on bricole un peu. un peu raide au départ mais après quelques heures d'utilisation ça devient agréable. Indispensable pour jouer à Céleste sur steamdeck!!!

If you’re looking to upgrade your Steam Deck OLED without spending a lot, this eXtremeRate Face Clicky Kit is a solid value pick. It’s an affordable mod that noticeably improves the button experience compared to stock. ✅ What I Like: Easy installation: I was pleasantly surprised by how straightforward the install was. As long as you follow a guide and take your time, it’s very manageable even if you’re not a hardcore modder. Better than stock buttons: The buttons feel more responsive and tactile than the original Steam Deck OLED buttons, which makes gameplay feel a bit snappier. Great value: For the price, this is one of the cheaper upgrades that actually makes a difference. ⚠️ What Could Be Better: While the button feel is improved over stock, the button press still doesn’t feel perfect. It’s clickier and more responsive, but not quite as satisfying or premium as I was hoping for. You do need to open up the device, so it’s not for everyone. 👍 Overall: If you enjoy tinkering and want a noticeable improvement over the stock Steam Deck OLED buttons without spending much, this kit is a good option. It’s easy to install, better than stock, and a solid bang-for-your-buck upgrade, even if the button feel isn’t quite flawless.
