I’ve had my oled deck for about 4 months. Very careful with it. I guess I just used it just as much. Mid 30s gamer, I guess when I got my first deck ever the oled to go with my desktop. I guess I gravitated playing before bed laying down got I’ve recorded some good hours in it. Stock sticks, fine, mine left was starting to stick not like actually stick. But I could feel it inside. Installed the oled Gulikit, been loving it. Was able to get my deadzone 50% lower than stock sticks. They sit a little nicer and you don’t loose any features. It’s a nice upgrade for sure, not only for the peace of mind, but just how simple it’s really like a drop in solution that makes a world of difference. If you play any shooters like left for dead 2, or if you modded yours with game pass on there and play zombies on there. Way more accurate than stock.
You can also just calibrate them in Software using Terminal with the thumbstick_cal command in Desktop mode. Much less tedious than doing it with the button.
Hey! Do these joysticks have a rectangular or a circular deadzone? You didn't mention this in the video. Stock ones have a circular deadzone, while older versions of Gulikit sticks have a square one.
definitely worth the upgrade in my opinion. when you fit and test the sticks you can tell the quality improvement over the stock sticks. they sit a tiny bit lower than the stock sticks do, which feels much better to me and they feel firm/strong/accurate. The stock analog sticks are good but the gulikit sticks are better
No snappy motion? It felt instantly different to me whether 3rd or 1st person games I tend to overshoot..messed with settings, calibration, and different games..im getting use to it but thought I'd ask if anybody notices this to
Another good video, i mainly play first person shooters and on some games especially battlebit i resllt seemed to struugle and im sure these would help
@@Deckster978 I'm playing a LOT of xdefiant after following your tutorial and so far I don't seem to notice any issues with the standard joy sticks but every other FPS iv played I have noticed issues, combat master was another game I didn't notice any problems
The cutout in the middle circle on your steam deck actually makes the cooling of internet parts worse. Reduces air intake on the vents means hotter motherboard. You should consider sealing it.
People just be reaching . Lol they feel the same, literally. Everyone just wants to place themselves into a “mod” community. And it makes them feel like there a “modder” and they know how to upgrade . I think they think it’s “cool”. Kids 🤡
the deadzone change is just a nice quality of life change and I personally want to keep my oled deck for a while so knowing I wont have to deal with stick drift is something thats well worth the $30 and 30 minute install.
@@cinder6557Biggest reason for it right there. Hall effect sticks will never develope drift because they phyaically Can't go bad short of well... Them shorting out some how. I have a flightstick from the 90's that uses a Hall effect sensor and the plastic is likely going to become brittle and fail before it does.

@@vaassick8016 i only play older games and retro stuff so i haven't noticed any snappy motion or problems
😂 🤡. They literally feel identical.Placebo effect for people who are just tryn to justify buying so they can act like it’s a “mod” 😂
@@LaymanGamin they're not identical, they feel different to the stock sticks, but yes i agree the stock sticks are fine. i prefer the gulikit sticks
For me, I would just use the stock sticks until they're broken or drifting and then get new sticks.
HI Thanks I Just watched your video and had to order a set 👍
Game changing ? Mine are fine maybe as a replacement for broken ones if they ever break .
It's very subjective in my opinion, I had a friend test them and they didn't notice the deadzone difference, but for me it's quite a big upgrade :D

Thank you! the biggest difference for me are racing games and shooters :)

Are the thumbsticks same for LCD and OLED versions?
No
Yes they are
It's only game changing when your current Joysticks broke. Otherwise, stock is fine.
much tighter sticks, feel a hell of alot better than the stocks ones either way (b ' ' )b
Having them is significantly better then not when it decides to go out of stock everywhere. And then you regret not getting them.

Where can I buy the hall effect for steam deck oled?
I bought mine on Amazon :D
