AKNES Gulikit Hall Effect Joysticks for Steam Deck OLED | Keep the touch sensing functionality, Super Smooth, Longer Work Life, with Caps, No Soldering

These Gulikit Hall Effect joysticks are fantastic replacements for the Steam Deck OLED. The installation was straightforward, and they feel smooth, precise, and durable. No more drift issues—just reliable performance. A must-have upgrade for any Steam Deck owner!

Easy to install and they work great. I am very happy with the purchase, and will keep buying from these guys for all of my other consoles. Hall effect is the way to go.

Great pair of thomb stics. Easy to setup. I'm using them for 4 months now without a problem. Better then orginal.

One quick YouTube tutorial and I had the back plate off the deck and these stick units installed. It’s a simple process, even if you’re not well versed in device disassembly. However, tapping the incredibly small button on the board of the analog stick unit (inside the deck) while gauging the calibration onscreen was quite tricky and fiddly. The button only registering now and then made things difficult and it’s such a small thing to press on the circuit board that you really have to take your time. Once calibrated though the sticks performed really well and act as a great alternative to the standard ones. The elimination of drift and the zero dead zone make these above and beyond the stock sticks. Just be sure to breathe deeply while fitting and calibrating them and you’ll be fine…

I bought a set for my original LED steam deck and when I upgraded to an OLED this was the first modification I made. Work great and feel really responsive. Very pleased.

Not bad, but not sure of the benefits. The centre has a slightly sticknl to it, and one was widely off so needed adjustment to centre and even then needs a fairly wide dead point. Not sure if these are worth it as an upgrade. They certainly do the job as a replacement if you break a stick.

So glad i bought these analog sticks for the OLED steam deck, they feel noticeably better than the stock sticks, ..they feel stronger & slightly firmer and they sit just a bit lower which feels right to me (i felt the stock sticks were just a bit too tall/high). They have a strong premium quality feel to them, ..very happy with them and fitting them was easy

Works perfectly

Right stick arrived with a defect and looks like really cheap plastic. Edit: Got a refund for the right stick. After almost 2 months of use, they are still precise, but the feel the touch sensor is really not great. If you only care about the precision and reliability of the hall effect, go for it, but expect lower feel and look compared to valve's.

Muy muy muy contento. Funciona a la perfección, instalación y calibración por Konsole perfectas. Son muy precisos mas que los que tenia de serie. Son sencillos de instalar si tienes algo de maña y conocimientos basicos.

Installé en 10 min, calibrer en 5. Fonctionne parfaitement, ils m'ont l'air plus souple que les originaux , je les trouve top !!!

Die Sticks habe ich bestellt weil bei mir einer zu driften begann. Montage ist super simpel mit ifixit Anleitung. Die sticks fühlen sich gut an und funktionieren einwandfrei. Die im ausgebauten Zustand zu verwenden ist Quatsch und einige Rezensenten sagten, dass die nicht rund laufen. Surprise machen die originalen auch nicht. Eingebaut ist davon nichts zu merken. Auf Langzeit müssen sie sich Beweise, aber aktuell bin ich restlos zufrieden.

My situation: I dropped my Steamdeck and an analog stick broke. I was distraught. OEM sticks were out of stock from iFixit, and I personally loved the feel of the OEM sticks. Reddit recommended I buy these replacements. Saying they were superior because of hall-effect and all that. Actual review of product: These sticks feel just as quality as the OEM sticks to me. These are a cost effective AND quality replacement sticks. It was completely plug and play. Probably 15 minutes total for me to replace. Plus now I reap the longevity benefits of having hall effect sticks. You will need a T6 torx bit to remove the back of your Steam Deck OLED and all associated screws inside the device. I personally have an LTT precision screwdriver set that has the necessary bits. Edit: Just an update. I noticed the accuracy of my sticks was a little out. I calibrated the thumbsticks and now they are actually very accurate now. ifixit has a guide on how to do it. It takes less than 5 minutes to do. Promise. Do not consider it a hurdle to stop you from buying these. Find another reason.
