A fantastic kit that comes with 2x everything, including set of tools. No soldering indeed.
Overall the build quality and setup are great, my cables fit into the port and the battery charges. Everything feels solid.I'll start off with my only complaint, and it's a very small one, not even that real. I had to look outside of the instruction booklet to find how to open my controller since I've never done it before. Just keep that in mind as a heads up. Please do not use a metal tool to open it up, the plastic pry included worked, you just need to get the tabs on the sides next to the D-Pad and input buttons, as well as the two below the analog sticks at the bottom of the bubble.As for the product itself, it works, and it does its job. As you can see in my photo, I could've done a better job with filing, but I made sure to check if my cables fit and they do so I'm leaving it as is. Make sure when using the cutting tool to get the pillars towards the charging port hole, and cut around the screw hole as well. Apart from that, it really is just digging a bit and cutting out some of the walls. The cables were a bit scary to install, but they're ribbon and that just comes with the territory.

Great upgrade for a PS4 controller
Super easy to Install and works great. Awesome upgrade for an aging PS4 controller. Paired with a new battery and my controller is good as new!

CHARGE PORT LIGHT IS YELLOW 😔
If you follow their instructions it’s wayyy easier to install! Only issue I was faced with wasn’t my own isn’t but the LED LIGHT COLOR of the charge port isn’t the OEM ORANGE ITS A YELLOW! It works great overall! It’s a genius upgrade from the original charge port as it’s a TYPE C!!!!

Amazing product, great upgrade. Used it to fix a damaged controller.
The included tools make installation smooth as butter. The flat craft knife blade is fixed to a miniature 3D printed handle that’s far more appropriate for a job like this.I appreciate that ElecGear put in the effort to give measurements on how much plastic to trim. The precise values are nice to know for the sake of guidance, but go slow with your guesstimations in the trimming process and you probably won’t need to reach for any rulers. The miniature cylindrical file also made creating the rounded ends of the USB-C connector extremely simple. Smoothing out any and all rough edges was a breeze too.So far I have only installed one of these, and I used it with the ExtremeRate Decade remap shell for PS4. It’s a larger housing than the official controller shells, and uses a different plastic mold. I was a little concerned that the plastic was too thin already near the port on the ExtremeRate shell, but actually it fits perfectly. Which is great because I really wish they had a USB-C version of that shell. Thanks to this ElecGear kit, I made my own USB-C version.Can’t stress how much the flimsiness of micro USB frustrates me. Kind of feels like I have no use for a PS5 controller now, and this was way cheaper.

Perfect!
The micro USB went out on my controller so this was a perfect upgrade. Easy to install and comes with everything you need.

Take your time and it works great
With a little focus and time, these worked great. Tiny screws made it difficult, but it came with everything needed. It works great and I made it fit perfect with the little sander provided.

Great alternative
MAKE SURE YOU CONFIRM WHICH CONTROLLER YOU HAVE!!! I bought the wrong pcb for the controller i intended it for, but luckily I had another controller that was the right version. The pcb works great though. The led colors work and I haven't had any connection problems. This is a great alternative to upgrade your controller and also get rid of your messed up micro usb charging port.
