Skull&co Thumbstick Grip Set

These thumbstick grips offer more than just enhanced comfort; they effectively prevent the common issue of dirt and debris accumulating on the OEM thumbstick caps. Not only do they feel great and improve the overall aesthetics, but they are also easy to clean, ensuring a cleaner and significantly more comfortable system.

Don't underestimate the impact of such a seemingly insignificant product, as the thumbsticks are one of the primary touch points on the console. When paired with the Jsaux silicone grips, you're in for a truly elevated gaming experience.

Jsaux Silicone Grips

Much like the Skull&co thumbstick grips, these seemingly small products make a significant difference in both the aesthetics and ergonomics of the device. Not only do they enhance the overall appearance, but they also provide essential protection against wear and tear when placing the Steam Deck down.

We firmly stand by the belief that these two accessories are essential additions, as they address all touch points and greatly enhance the comfort and usability of the Steam Deck.

Jsaux Kickstand Case

If the soft silicone textured grips aren't your style or don't offer enough protection, our next best recommendation is the PC0105 "Protective Standing Case" from Jsaux. To be clear, this isn't their most feature-rich or premium case; in fact, we don't even think the kickstand feels particularly great. However, what this case excels at is weight and comfort. We've compared it to the Skull & Co., Killswitch, and other Jsaux cases, and none of them match its ergonomic comfort, ease of inserting and removing the device, or the soft yet durable rubber texture that actually feels nice in your hands—not to mention the price. Somehow, one of the lowest-priced protective cases on the market also seems to be one of the best.

You can also purchase this case on Amazon if the above product link isn't to your taste.

Jsaux Glass Screen Protectors
(Gloss)

Offering everything the Etched protector does, but with a trade-off and a distinct advantage. The gloss variant enhances color saturation slightly, providing a more vibrant gaming experience. However, it comes with the caveat of more light reflections. We recommend choosing the gloss protector if you typically play in darker environments, where the impact of increased glare is minimal, and the benefit of richer colors shines through. For those who prefer gaming in well-lit environments, we suggest opting for the Etched Glass variant, which excels in anti-glare protection.

Transparent Back Plate for Steam Deck (Vented with Heatsync)

Contrary to the full housing replacement, the Transparent Back Plate offers a straightforward installation process with essentially zero danger to the device, and can be completed quite easily by those with no prior experience, even the required tools are provided by Jsaux for the quick install.

This sleek replacement introduces transparent colors, a metal heatsink, and added vents, resulting in reduced fan noise and improved device temperature which actually made quite a huge practical improvement in our general gameplay. We love the practical improvements so much that even if a 'OEM Black' colour was made, we'd still happily recommend it.

⚠️ Please be aware that the OLED model utilizes screws that differ from those supplied by Jsaux. While the backplate remains compatible, you must use the original screws from your Steam Deck instead of the ones provided by Jsaux. ⚠️
