Boy was I excited for this one. I finally got my hands on some Kontrol Freek Precision Rings after months of pushing them aside. I know, I'm a lazy bastard! But I had other projects going on too. The universe provided these Precision Rings to me via affiliate partnership, and I couldn't be more grateful to Kontrol Freek for sending these out, as well as a ton of other gear. I do plan on reviewing some Kontrol Freeks, as well as the custom controller grips they sell in the future, so if you're interested, be sure to hit that sub button. Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed this video, and I'll see you guys in the next one!

First time watching a full video. Definitely gonna keep coming back. Huge fan of part of the video where he says to leave a comment
I can’t thank you enough for this vid, I bought some yesterday and got them today and my aim has improved so much, my biggest issue has been immediately moving too far left or right witj no resistance but these rings give me more control where I can run max sense and get those quick turnarounds or slight adjustments, top tier ring for real
You’re right about controllers needing more focus. I used to slay on controller but now after playing on keyboard and mouse for a couple years a controller feels like a foreign language

These things do work well. Like he said, if you don’t take them on and off constantly, they will last long. Have had on my controller for about 4 months now and it’s till going strong and because if it I can play on 20 20 sensitivity on cod now while still maintaining that level of precision so it’s actually really great! Such a simple yet effective product.
This is the most trustworthy best quality content on KZread
Thank you for the advice man i was really struggling with how to put on the rings, i also wanted to know it they were worth it, perfect discripton my man
Ive been using these for around 2 months and I love them. At first I hated them but once I found the right Sensitivity combination, forget about it. I used to use the black ones on 20 20 sens but recently went down to the purple mid on 13 13 sens. And yeah I only use it on the right stick.
Thanks for the defending controller players, it’s hard out there in these pc lobbies with some game sense and 2 analog sticks
YES I have been waiting for this bc the thumb stick tension on my fusion pro is so loose compared to my old PS4 controller.Great video dude!
It's been two years since you posted this, but I needed to hear this... I put a kontrol freak on my left stick... and after your rant, I nodded my head in shame and acceptance, because you were right... I don't know wtf I was thinking. 😀
Adjusting your dead zone and sensitivity curve does help as well when using the elite controller
I’ve been using these for a few weeks now and they definitely help in warzone. I used them so I could up my sensitivity especially when I play aggressive with. Interestingly it helps me more with sniping. I would recommend even tho I think they’re overpriced for a piece of foam.
Thought I was going to watch for a few seconds but I watched it all. Great video , you got a new sub 👍🏼 keep it up !!

Took me a week or two to get used to but they’ve 100% helped me in FPS games, mainly WZ. Lets you play at high sensitivities but still maintain accuracy. Trust me it’s gonna feel weird af at first but take the time to try the different rings and find your right sensitivity. I also recommend using with the regular KFs like Cuda said, it’s buttery and almost too stiff without them imo. For WZ I use the medium ring and a 10/10 sens. I’m also a crackhead who uses this on the Elite controller

Good motivation to swap Elite thumbsticks on your controller. Easy on/off without tearing the foam rings

When I used precision rings, they started to rip and ended up getting in the joystick. I ended up having horrible stick drift, but I used them a lot and very roughly, so I can say that for someone using them casually, they will work wonders

Great video! Just my opinion on these: I used it in a PowerA Fusion Pro and on a ps5 controller, I found it working better on the ps5 because of the different gap in the thumbsticks, just like you say. Also, totally agree with you when you said they work better with the kontrolfreek thumbsticks grips.
Something I like about my KF Vortex on the left stick (the lowest height) is just the greater surface area for my left thumb. Especially after using it for a while the Xbox thumb sticks just feel so small

I use a low rise thumbstick on my left so I make precision movement which honestly makes it look more clean on video
Do these affect what we should have for stick response curves (e.g. linear, dynamic, etc depending on the game)?

Still holding up, no stick drift or anything although the power cable went bad so I had to replace it. Good video here too, ill definitely look into getting a precision ring.

Olá, sou do Brasil e já vi vários vídeos seus sobre controles. Para você, Xbox Elite 2 é o melhor controle entre todos? Eu já experimentei as três versões do Razer Wolverine (Ultimate, Torneio e V2) e achei todas muito ruins, falando sobre a pegada dos paddles.

Eae TMB sou do Brasil. Minas Gerais. Olha eu usei vários controles o elite v2 e o melhor. Quando for comprar nunca compre usado. E procurei pelo modelo FST 00002 que e o revisado sem problemas. O analógico e meio bambo no centro em comparação com controle comum. Normal ...pois o analógico e assim mesmo. Compre pelo ML...testa ele legal pois e uma caixinha de surpresa pois de 3 ...2 peguei com defeito no analógico...ele estalava ao rodar 360 graus. Uso os 4 paddles sem problemas...e um excelente controle...

Mas acabei devolvendo depois que eu soube que a Microsoft não dá garantia no Brasil por não ser vendido oficialmente aqui... Porém de fato é disparado o melhor controle que eu já tive, com a melhor pegada. Aí agora, faz uns dias, eu vi um anuncio no AliExpress, sem caixa, mas bem mais em conta que no ML, e resolvi arriscar. Quando chegar eu volto aqui e te conto como foi

Totally unrelated channels by genre but you remind me of "Mista GG" hilarious and informative, new subscriber 🎉
First time watching and this is channel is 🔥
Would be interested in trying these. I actually like to slow down left slick a little by adding deadzone to stop wander when sniping and holding breath (left stick in).
might have to invest and try these out, just got the galaxies a couple weeks ago, raised my sense and ive been dropping 4k's in apex on PC on the daily! purple is definitely goin to be the best, it always is! Power A!
You were my decision on buying these thank you!
Thanks! A testimony to the obsolete design of consoles. I moused and keyboarded my wrists into RSI pain but got an Xbox for the quarantine. For Doom Eternal actually. No wrist trouble yet but damn I’d love to be able to aim once in awhile.

I gotta be honest, I used these on the power a controller and the razor ultimate. They are ehhhh to me, they tend to climb up the power A's thumb sticks. The razor ultimate doesn't really have a climbing problem. The black is waaaay to hard, the green is really soft(would only use green on sticks with higher stick tension.) Purple is definitely the way to go. I do find that kontrolfreak sticks are a better purchase over the rings, they both pair well with each other tho. The mixed is what I got and I definitely recommend the mixed for someone that doesn't know what they need stiffness wise. I've only tore one of the green ones so far and have had them for 9 months.
You earned my sub for sure cuda baby
Homie you look straight out of 80's. I love it.
Great vid been looking at these on eBay £3.45 looking forward to there arrival hopefully they do what they say recommend useing the link prices are really good
good review, have the same first initial impression. about left stick: i do like something like the omni (or whatever has lowest hight) just has better grip and feedback. also in CoD you can set the max threshhold, which i lower to 80
Sheeeesh this vid is amazing 🤩
I LOVE your vid!!! Pls do more video’s in the future thx!!!!!
yo i just copped because i wanted to test them and i fucking love the soft ones I highly recommend them for xbox controllers fit perfectly. thanks for the review cuda.
Love this
So, I own an Elite Series 2 and I'm curious, have you compared the tightening of the thumbsticks tension to these rings?

I’m assuming they send two of the same pads, like you said not for left stick, incase you have a taller thumb stick you might be able to throw the second on there and then it won’t creep up. Haven’t used them, but it might work. Like you videos, keep up the good work.
Will a lifesaver gummie work? 😂😂….love the video btw :)
I see those lucky people that have no frickin issues with elite series 2 and I’m so jealous. Mine works but not at the same time (double clicks everything and automatically presses menu button). Now that I watched almost all of your reviews, I’m willing to buy Razer wolverine TE

Playing MW2 with the soft rings on both analog sticks with the edition MW2 kontrol freak sticks and the rings work like a charm. It depends on who you are if you want them on the left.
Dude your awesome new sub
Rtx 2060 gang it impressed me more than I thought and honestly I have no regrets

Just watching this video out of random for the first time and I'm curious if I'm using these with the elite series 2 controller and the elevated thumbstick instead of the control freak add-on stick will it still perform properly or should I go ahead and buy the actual control freak extension
Another good point to add is that you lose out on the full rotation of your stick so if you're used to locking out the stick to do a 180 or 360 you'd most likely have to force the stick passed the foam as it won't be reaching the end of its deadzone with the foam on. Also it affects you're inner deadzone as well. Lets say you have a 5% deadzone, you won't feel the foam til around 10-15% of actuation. This one can fuck up your muscle memory real bad. Imo id recommend this to anyone who plays with 10 or higher deadzone and also someone who doesn't play fast or go for trick shots really. In conclusion if you play on a low deadzone and have a fast playstyle I wouldnt advise getting these.
