The handles have a matte lightly textured feel to them, the main body is a matte smooth feel. Sturdy plastic that doesn't flex easily. Basically feels the same as before in practice unless you are really trying to feel the difference. Most notably the handles don't have the dimple pattern that the original handles have.
The buttons are also glossy instead matte. I personally would have preferred a matte finish to reduce fingerprints but they are so small in won't really matter. Plus fit the snes version the glossy button finish better matches the original snes controller anyway. They don't really feel different in use so it's more an aesthetic thing.
I've been rocking 3D printed handles for a while, it'll be nice to finally get a custom body color!
It's beautiful. Now I just need to find a chemical that will hurt that logo but not the plastic.

How about the D-Pad? Anyone kow if there is a way to fix the d-pad? Most pro controllers have a flawed d-pad. They fixed it on the Spatoon version (pink,,bleech) Do these per chance come with a new d-pad? One that you can't press up,down,left and right simultaneously? Does anyone know where I can pick up a part and get the good d-pad on my black pro controller?
Hmm.. did it fix it? I thought it needed a bigger ball under the D-Pad. Like the Spatoon version. Like the SNES had. How does covering the contact help? Can you still press all directions at once? How does a Hadoken feel? Can I just buy a D-Pad for the Spatoon version somehow and swap it out? Anyone know where to get one?
Funny, Ninty had the best dpad for years, now they have the worst. Maybe ill get the Hori dpad joycon... too bad it's blue.
Accidental diagonals are gone, I never had a problem with pressing all the buttons at once so I can't confirm that problem.
Hadokens feel great to me, but garbage before the mod. I won't say it's perfect but anything is better.

I see, I personally don't like the feel at all. I want it to feel like a SNES controller. The Xenoblade/spatoon ones are MUCH better... The stock one, you can press in the center and it will push all directions. Garbage. How to fix it the least shoddy way? I was hoping these shells had a solution..
Magic erasers should take it right off. Even the off-brands should do a good job

Where did you find the replacement shells without the dumb logo? Want to buy one myself.
Don't know about the pro controller, but there are quite a few switch shell replacements without it. We'll probably just have to wait a few months for better versions of these to arrive.
I would love dock shells. I'll finally be able to take some of these third party docks and place the clone boards into a console sized shell!
