### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    good quality.
  

*by J***W on Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2018*

they seem to have good quality plastic, I havn't installed them yet but i will post an update once they are installed...  I now have them installed and they are great quality.the only thing I do not like is they are very smooth and slippery as the original shell is not. While installing I stripped the outside screws because I'm an idiot who was using the wrong screwdriver. That should not go against the seller as that was user error. 2 hours "lay-tair"("I had to😉") I got the right screw driver and lucky for me only the inside edge of the screws was stripped, so the new bigger screwdriver tightened them up good. Over all this was a easy process and if you are good at taking things apart you will be fine.

    It's a DIY project with fix it yourself issues, if that's not your thing dont buy it.
  

*by C***Y on Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2018*

I love the way it looks, it reminds me of my gameboy color. Putting the back on was by far the easiest part, I did have to file part of it by the bottom of the kick stand because a screw holding the big metal plate on the back wasn't letting the new case sit flush. The left joycon took like 10 minutes to switch out and works perfectly. The right joycon was not so easy.... it was a nightmare in fact. It took 3x as long to switch out initially because it has extra stuff inside, only to have the R button get stuck in after the first press. I took it apart to see what was wrong and found out part of the rail wasnt fitting inside the front part of the shell so when I screwed it shut it pinched everything together up top. So I used a carpet cutter to cut some extra plastic out of the groove ( it's the slot between the + and y for the rail to slide in). I cut alot out for the size of the groove only to get it to slide together barely if pushed hard. And now the R button works mostly unless I squeeze the controller to much and it gets pinched and stuck again.

    Not As Hard As I Had Thought
  

*by A***7 on Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2019*

These have a smooth finish which is noticeably different from the standard JoyCons. I was hesitant at first when getting these because of every YouTuber saying that the end product is awesome but the process was WAY too hard. I had just replaced the shell on my Pro Controller and loved the Atomic Purple color, and had the itch to mod my JoyCons too. I had never done any modifications before but because of my history of working on laptops I was comfortable with diving into this project. This shell came with the Super Famicom color buttons, which I personally am not a huge fan of so I kept the standard black buttons and its looks great.It took me probably about 1-1.5 hours to complete the mod, where I had heard it usually taking 3-4 hours. I cannot stress this enough though, HAVE THE RIGHT TOOLS. Just having the tri-tip screw driver is not enough. I had a pair of fine tweezers for electronic use and would not have been able to do this mod without it.The biggest complaint that I have is that there is now more play (wiggle) with the ZL and ZR buttons but honestly I don't notice it when I am playing.I highly recommend these, the D-Pad is great and still works well when using the L JoyCon by its self. the shells look fantastic, the original black buttons work if you're like me and are not a fan of the Super Famicom buttons. Make sure that you have the proper tools!!!  Lastly watch the instruction video all the way though then step-by-step as you do the mod yourself.
