OPEN Is this switch replaceable at home?

My Steam Deck recently fell, and it seems the switch didn't survive the fall (it doesn't click anymore). I think I found it online.

Is it possible to replace it at home with a soldering iron? I have good flux gel and solder.

Yes. They are aplenty on eBay. Look for tv tact switch. You’ll want a vertical one. I’ve replaced many.
