Comment on SD hall effect sticks recommendations

I got a set of gullikits which I believe work both in the oled and lcd deck, you have a switch for which version you’re using. They are great and have never let me down. My case was the same as yours, my left stick had a drift.
Some say the gullikits have a square box and that impacts how it responds, but I haven’t noticed it. Then again, my deck is for couch gaming mostly

There’s different thumbstick parts for LCD and OLED, the switch you’re talking about is only on the LCD thumbsticks, and it’s for switching between type A and type B sticks (the LCD originally had 2 different thumbstick parts that aren’t interchangeable). When replacing sticks for the LCD deck, you used to have to check if you had A or B sticks and order different models depending on that, but the added A/B switch means there’s now only one LCD stick model to buy.
The OLED sticks have some completely different design parts, for example the LB/RB buttons are actually part of the OLED stick, which is nice since those can be permanently ruined by dropping the deck. Repairing broken LB/RB on the LCD deck is much harder, but changes like this means you can’t have interchangeable sticks between LCD and OLED.
