playvital Thumb Grip Caps for Steam Deck OLED 🎮

This set of thumb grip caps brings a playful touch to handheld gaming while improving control for longer sessions. Designed for Steam Deck LCD and Steam Deck OLED and compatible with the PS Portal Remote Player, these silicone thumbstick covers reduce slippage and help limit thumb fatigue for more precise inputs during intense play.

Key Points

These grips are made from soft, non-slip silicone, which sits comfortably under the thumb and offers a better feel than bare plastic. They are sweat-resistant and slightly textured to maintain grip during longer sessions, adding a subtle layer of protection to the original thumbsticks. 🎮

The pack includes multiple shapes themed around Halloween, with small pumpkin and bat motifs that let you personalise your device without affecting visibility of the controls. They are compact after installation and, according to the manufacturer, will not fall off easily during gameplay. 👻

Benefits

Comfort improves noticeably thanks to the thicker surface that cushions pressure points. This can reduce hand and thumb fatigue during marathon gaming sessions and makes repeated movements feel less abrasive. The textured surface also assists with fine directional control, which helps in precise aiming or tight manoeuvres.

Installation is straightforward and reversible. The grips stretch slightly to fit and are easy to remove if you want to switch styles or clean them. Consider that these covers are intended specifically for Steam Deck LCD, Steam Deck OLED and the PS Portal Remote Player and may not fit other controllers.

Usage Recommendations

For the best fit, press each cap firmly over the thumbstick and rotate slightly to seat it in place. Periodically remove the grips to clean them with mild soap and water, then allow them to dry completely before reattaching. Use the themed caps when you want a bit of character on your device or when you need extra grip during long play sessions.

Note that while the grips are durable, heavy lateral force or rough treatment may shorten their lifespan, so handle them with care during removal and storage.
