Looking for a Steam Deck button mod with more of a mouse/contact switch feel
Ever since I got my Steam Deck, I’ve never been fully happy with the ABXY buttons or D pad compared to my Flydigi Vader 4 Pro. The Vader buttons feel way more tactile, responsive, and satisfying without being overly loud or stiff.
I started looking into the ExtremeRate clicky kit, but after watching reviews and tearing down my Vader 4 Pro myself, I think the kit might feel closer to the Vader’s C/Z buttons instead of the main face buttons. The switches and sound seem really similar.
The problem is I actually don’t like the C/Z buttons much. They feel too sharp, rigid, and “pure microswitch” to me. If the Steam Deck mod feels like that, I’d honestly rather keep the stock membranes.
What I’m looking for is more of a softer tactile/contact-switch feel like a good mouse switch or the main buttons on the Vader 4 Pro responsive and tactile, but not super clicky or loud.
I attached a video example of the sound/feel I’m looking for.
Are there any other mods out there besides ExtremeRate that get closer to that kind of feel? Or maybe different switches people swap into the kit?
