eXtremeRate Full Set Shell with Buttons Touchpad Cover Compatible with ps5 Edge Controller, Scarlet Red Replacement Decorative Trim Shell Front Back Plates Compatible with ps5 Edge Controller

After mixing “Hope Gray”, “Black”, and “Scarlet Red” complete shell kits and buttons for the Dualsense Edge controller, I was pleasantly surprised to discover the pieces all fit very well together. I had never did this before and found the instructional video was nearly sufficient to completely explain the process. There were 3 points in the installation video that became difficult. So I had searched for other videos and pieced together these other sources of information in order to solve the problems I was having. 1) The shoulder (trigger buttons L2 &R2) had springs that popped off when disassembled. These springs were not mentioned in the video at all, probably due to my Edge Controller being a different model than the one in the video. I was able to find another video source that completely described the installation of these springs. 2) The shoulder (trigger L2 & R2) buttons have a part inside the button that needs to be removed, but the video doesn’t completely describe how to remove these parts. I was able to piece together information from other videos to remove these parts from the buttons. 3) There were several occasions where the pieces would not fit together and I had to take them apart and reassemble them over and over until they finally fit. Patience was key here. These shell kits do not come with all the tools you may need, such as tweezers for electronics, hairdryer/heat gun for the touch control pad, and a magnetic pad for organizing all the screws that are removed in the disassembly process, and a magnetic screwdriver is a huge bonus. The installation process took me just about 3 hours to complete. I did not replace the touchpad. Had I replaced the touchpad, I assume the installation process would’ve taken another half hour. These complete shell kits are a great value when you consider the cost to have someone build a custom controller. I would’ve easily spent an additional $100-$200 dollars more if I had this custom built. Overall the look is great. I got everything I was looking for in controller with a customized shell. The pieces fit well together, (admittedly) after several attempts of reassembling them. I was fortunate not to have any unsightly gaps in between the pieces. The quality is great and is similar if not equal to the strength, thickness and durability of plastics used in a controller directly from PlayStation. Much like the original plastics that came with the controller, I found the grip of this shell to be rather slick. So I installed some thin, rubberized grip, which makes for a very nice non-slip grip. This grip also helps with keeping the controller from sliding around on a hard surface like a table. Now I’m very happy to have a controller that I love the look of!

I want to put out there that I'm 68 years old and an avid gamer. I splurged on a Dualsense Edge but could only get it in white. Oh well! Time to make it mine! I looked at the selections of the ExremeRate Full Set Shell kits and just loved the selection that was available. I picked one knowing first off that it would probably be quite an intense changeover, but it's like everything else. If you take your time, follow the directions and have patience, it will turn out. I was impressed with the detail, paint job, the way things fit together nice and tight and the Youtube video that explained the disassembly & reassembly of the controller in easy to understand steps. They give you everything you need to kit up and maintain your new controller. I ended up adding custom silver sticks and cushioning for hand grips. I also integrated some of the old parts to add contrast to the basic color which was a chameleon blue purple. So again, if you have the patience and you follow directions well, you'll end up with one awesome looking controller. I would definitely recommend this kit for anyone that's good with their hands.

This is a 2-in-1 review. I purchased both the Full Set Shells (black) and the Full Set Buttons (red) at the same time. The red shells (front and back) and red thumb sticks were separate purchases. My reasoning for purchasing the red shells was because anyone who owns the DualSense Edge knows that the original grips of the controller will eventually begin to bubble and discolor over time. However, after I got the red shells, I began dreaming of further customizing the whole controller. The only problem was I had begun to watch a bit of the DIY YouTube video of the whole process and it looked pretty detailed. When I finally decided to attempt the full process, I somewhat kicked myself that I didn't just get a full set instead of a full and partial set. Despite costing a bit more, I did like how the two colors complimented each other. That said, the problem is doing it yourself. I highly recommend (and I cannot stress this enough) making sure that you keep all screws and parts you remove labeled from step 1 until the end and then you can put it back together in reverse. The kit comes with both a plastic tool to separate the controller and a screwdriver. The screwdriver works well. However, I found that using a file works better than the piece of crap tool they provide you with. Additionally, the YouTube video mentions a tweezers, but the kit they provide doesn't include one. Thankfully, it's not a big issue, but there are certain parts that you may benefit from using one, so keep that in mind beforehand. Once the controller is completely taken apart, the YouTube video misses a few steps in reassembling it. Namely, it forgets how many screws you removed for certain parts and there's a thick padded sticker (provided with the replacement kit) that they forget to tell you to use. Thankfully, one of the comments mentions this. The sticker is used to make the controller battery fit more snugly into its housing. During disassembly, I would be gentle with the ribbon cables and moving other parts out of the way. It is an expensive controller after all. However, during reassembly, try and jam the ribbon cables as hard as possible into their slots to ensure they fit properly. Elsewise, you might end up like me and have to take it apart again. With that in mind, before you completely put everything back together (i.e. with the images I provided, before putting the red back shell on or the screws) test your controller and make sure it works. After I put mine back together, I turned on my PS5 and while the controller worked on the menu, it wouldn't work with any game. This forced me to disassemble it nearly completely again and check the ribbon cables. Second time's a charm in my case. The red buttons on the black shell look sick and the plastic has a cool metal feel to the touch. For the most part, everything fits together like the original parts, but I do notice some minor imperfections. It might be how I put it back together and these issues are very minor. Most other gamers may not even notice them, but considering I know the feeling of the original parts versus the replacement parts, I personally felt a slight difference. That's not to say I don't like it as I absolutely love the look and feel of it now. My one complaint regarding the buttons is they don't have the symbols on them, but someone else said that may be due to copyright. Additionally, while the L2/R2 buttons don't have the tiny symbols as "grips" they do have bumps to simulate the same type of texture. I'm giving it 4-stars because of just how anxiety inducing the entire procedure is to take it apart, especially if you have to take it apart a second time because it didn't work right the first time, and because the video they provide to help assist omits some key elements when reassembling it.

My base white version started to wear down on the back handles (like alot of people have reported). Ordered this black version and followed the YouTube videos, so easy to follow just like their other ps5 kits. Everything was in the box and fit perfectly, no defects. Couldn't be happier with the new black look.

PERFEKT

The bottom back shell grips on the official dualsense edge starts to yellow with age and peel off, so I was looking for a solution, eXtremeRate fixed the problem with easy to follow YouTube videos showing you how to install the parts. I only did the bottom part as I wanted to retain its original look.

I followed all of the instructions to the letter (taking 5 hours to disassemble and reassemble), I found that the pieces don't snap together perfectly. At first I thought it was user error, so I redid everything from scratch, to ensure that no screw was loose, or piece ajar, but unfortunately the gap caused by the material warping (I believe?) remained. Aside from this, it is decent. Though thankfully this was meant as a gift, as it would bother me to a high extent to look at constantly! There's no good grip cover that hides it, while still displaying the changes. Update: The manufacturer reached out to assist, and were able to help me fix it, so that there is no longer any gap. Much appreciated!
