Introduction

Both controller sides of the Razer Kishi are almost identical in construction. The opening process is similar on both sides, therefore we will only show the right side in this guide.

What you need

Step 1

              Remove the screws               
  • The opening process is the same on both sides. For simplicity, this guide shows only the right-side opening process. Unscrew whichever side you wish to open and work on.
  • For the right side, remove the five Y0 screws securing the right side of the controller.
  • Four 9.2 mm screws
  • One 7.2 mm screw
  • If you wish to open the left side, remove the five Y0 screws securing the left side of the controller.
  • Four 9.2 mm screws
  • One 7.2 mm screw
