5.0 out of 5 stars 10/10 isn't good enough for this shell
Honestly this is one of the best shells I've come across, let alone for the Steam Deck.It feels great, looks fantastic and fit together arguably better than the stock shell. Mine creaked when the shell was pressed below the screen and this one didn't, so clearly done something better than Valve to sort that out!I did keep the original buttons though as it looks quite cheap going with all purple - but that's just me.The kit had everything you need to swap and Extreme Rate have a YouTube video that was really well done and easy to follow, so I'd recommend watching that like I did.I can't fault it and whilst this isn't a reflection on the shell, it's definitely not for the feint of heart. You take everything apart, including the screen (which I'd never done before) so I wouldnt do it as your first ever shell swap. If you do though, watch their video, take it slow and keep track of which screws go where so you don't ruin any of the posts with the wrong screws.My tip: I used several egg pots and scrap paper to say what they were - worked well!
5.0 out of 5 stars Very good
Transformed my steam deck to the limited edition look - without the hefty price tag scalpers or re sellers are asking for. Good quality
4.0 out of 5 stars Good shell, poor quality control
Great quality shell. Unfortunately they included the wrong screws and screwdrivers in the box (torx screwdrivers and screws that were way too big) luckily this is my second time buying one of these so I could reuse the screws from last time but be wary as you might have the wrong screws
5.0 out of 5 stars Patience is key!
After having a vinyl skin on my deck for a little while, I decided to take the plunge and buy the extremerate shell. I have zero experience with tear downs but I followed the tutorial on YouTube, pausing where necessary, which made the whole process a lot smoother.The screen removal was the most stubborn element to take out of the original shell but I would strongly advise purchasing the iOpener kit from iFixit. Stick it in the microwave for a minute and then place it on each side for about 5 minutes - I did this whilst watching a 30 minute show on Netflix to pass the time! Using the iFixit suction tool, I was able to prise the screen off without using the pics. Make sure to use isopropyl to safely remove the adhesive left behind. After the screen removal it’s pretty much plain sailing from there.I chose to keep the original buttons as a nice contrast to the translucent green; I will be putting some black extremerate back paddles on the rear too as I think that would look much slicker. The whole process probably took around 2.5 - 3 hours…if you like tinkering and enjoy projects that test your patience, the time will fly by as it did for me.I’m really pleased with the end result, it feels nice to hold and the quality is fantastic. The fit is absolutely perfect and for the price of the kit, the value for money is second to none. My main problem was actually choosing the shell colour! I would definitely recommend this if you have the patience for such things…I love a challenge so this was right up my street!
5.0 out of 5 stars Tough to fit but very much worth it
Brilliant, the better half loves this. My only criticism is it's slightly harder to hold due to the slippery texture on the grips, especially if your hands sweat. Otherwise it's awesome.*Do not attempt this if you are not experienced disassembling and reassembling electronics. Even with the video guide, it's far harder and longer than you would assume*
3.0 out of 5 stars Needs proper written instructions. Original Steam Deck Screws aren't compatible.
Quality of the case is superb and has an amazing soft touch feel (not that rubber stuff just smooth plastic). It's a little fragile when in parts so you need to be careful when assembling but when the decks fully assembled in it, it is very rigid and as good as the oem shell if not better.Major complaint is that it needs included instructions or at least tips. The included pamphlet only talks about the warranty.I say this because the first case I had was ruined because I used the OEM screws from the original Steam Deck shell (some of them are slightly longer than the Extremerate included screws) which cause the case to crack. Nowhere does it say you have to use the included screws and the online instruction video by Extremerate doesn't say it either.Im sure it might be obvious to some that if it comes with screws you should use them but I thought the OEM screws were better quality and the Extremerate screws weren't ordered, they were all bundled into one bag.My replacement clear shell also had some air bubbles trapped in the plastic which ruined the frosted effect.
5.0 out of 5 stars Looks fantastic
Came with all of the tools and links to in-depth videos for installation. This was my first time doing such an extensive shell swap, and all the replacement parts screws and adhesives fit perfectly. The only thing missing would be replacement thermal paste for the CPU heatsink but I had some on-hand anyway. I love the new look of my steam deck and will definitely order from this brand again
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect
Great clear case, perfect fit
Chulísimo
Me encanta el color de la funda. Todo perfecto. Lo he recibido muy rápido.
Coque super jolie
Coque impeccable de bonne qualité je recommande
Sehr guter Eindruck!
Ich werde diese Bewertung einen Update verpassen sobald es verbaut ist.Der erste Kontrollcheck sieht gut aus. Keine Kratzer, Risse oder imperfektionen. Das Kunststoff fühlt sich sehr Wertig an. Zubehör ist gut, würde aber definitiv besseres kaufen, gerade wenn es um den Bildschirm geht.Momentan warte ich auf den Rest.-Hülle Blue/purple (check)-Touchpad Aufkleber (check)-ssd upgrade (in progress)-Equipment ssd klonen(in progress)-besseres Werkzeug (in progress)-Zeit (in progress 🤣)
Good kit, not for beginners
Perfect fit, with a good video writeup of how to assemble it. This is not a beginners kit, it will require some knowledge of electronics to complete, as well as 4+ hours of time.
Tough installation, but worth it afterwards
The eXtremeRate Full Case & Buttons Set for Steam Deck (Clear Black) delivers a striking, fully transparent upgrade that lets your internals shine through and is widely praised for its precise fit, solid ABS build, and thorough instructional video. However, installing it requires advanced DIY skills—especially careful heat removal of the screen—and can take 2–4 hours, with potential pitfalls like stripped screws or awkwardly fitting button caps. Community feedback echoes this: one user called it “fantastic” for looks and fit but warned the painted buttons might gather grime, while another described the rear buttons as not transferring well . Overall, it's a premium-quality kit that transforms your Deck into a true customization statement—just be ready for the time investment and a delicate installation process.
