fell victim to the 'stick drift' issue... JUST after warranty expired. (BOTH controllers I purchased, nearly exactly 1 day after warranty = stick drift) bought 2 of these, 2 years apart(well + a month each) and both times, the exact same issue, both times, both on the right stick. (I know the fact warranty cuz I checked when I purchased it hoping to get replacement...) The 2nd one also had left bumper (and l1 button too) get wonky too. I will attempt to use both (if I can find the first one I got 2+ years ago) and attempt repairs, but am not hopeful. Feel like tin foil hat theory is starting to become quite believable (about them specifically designing stuff to break down just as warranty expires... so we more rent items than buy...lol) Read more

Really good controller if not for the stick drift problem I encountered after two - three month on the right controller. I fixed the problem a couple of time by pressing on the stick and moving in circle but the problem keeps coming back every few days. Now the left one has a severe stick drift all of the sudden, the usual fix doesn't seem to be working. Appart from that the controller is really comfortable for my big hands, be it trigger, stick or button they feel responsive and nice, trigger that have force is an added bonus on games that takes advantage of it. Sony has a one year warranty on it so hopefully I can exchange for one that doesn't have the issue. Read more

I recently bought the black panels for my PS5 so I needed to buy a black controller to match. There's nothing special to this controller as it's just the colour that's different. The DualSense controllers are probably the best controllers so far hands down. These can be used on the PC through Bluetooth. You can use it on the Switch and Xbox if you have the modified dongle to allow it. The controller has a USB-C port so it charges fairly quickly and you can't mix up the orientation of the head of the charging wire while connecting the wire. The comfort and grip on the controller allows your hands to mold with the shape of the controller. The adaptive triggers, haptic feedback, and motion sensor brings an extra experience to gameplay. It has a 3.5mm jack which is the same on the DualShock 4 controllers. This controller also has a built-in speaker which is different than the PS4 controller. Another cool feature on the PS5 controller is the design. If you look very carefully, you can see that the controller's surface is made up of the controllers buttons (circle, triangle, square, and X). Read more

I’ve had a lot of controllers now from xbox, switch pro controller, ps4, and now the ps5. This Pros: 1.controller is just so pleasing to the eye and comes in such beautiful colours the buttons are flush to the controller meaning again they look just pretty. 2. The joystick has a slight grid to it so you’re fingers will not slip around. Which can be extremely useful when you’re hands get a bit sweaty playing games. 3. No battery’s - it’s rechargeable. You never have to go to the store and buy batteries just plug it in leave it to charge and you’re done nothing too it. It’s simple and easy. 4. It’s a lot quieter when clicking on compared to an Xbox controller/pro switch controller. Cons: 1. The joystick feels rather weird - this might have been because I’m so used to my xbox controller but my thumb felt a bit awkward switching from the Xbox positioned joystick to the ps5’s. You get used to it but it throws you off. 2.the buttons are a bit too flat again this could because I’m used to my Xbox controller but I find it a bit weird sometimes how flat they are - they do make up for it with the sheer width of the buttons. 3. This is nearly a 100 dollar controller. So treat it with care. Don’t over charge it as it will burn the battery, don’t throw it around. And please if you’re a rage gamer who breaks controllers don’t buy this. That 200 dollars down the drain when you could honestly buy other things at that point. Overview: If you want a visually beautiful controller that functions well I would recommend it you will find it awkward swapping from Xbox to ps5 but that’s really a thing that will take a little time. For me it was a great buy as I no longer will have yo deal with bateried randomly dying mid game. That and it just feels good in my hand. I would wait till it goes on sale or as of right now buy it becuase it’s on sale Read more

I had a PS4 Dual Shock controller for 8 years. It worked flawlessly with 0 problems. I used it mostly for FPS gaming on my windows PC, with a program called DSR to emulate it. Last month it took a nasty spill onto my hard wood floor. The left analog started struggling as a result. I dropped it numerous times with no problems before, but this time it got damaged. I've had the PS5 controller for a month, it works flawlessly, feels perfectly molded to my hands, ultra smooth and precise. Bonus points for symmetry, which Xbox One lacks. It works on windows with the DSR emulator and so far is near perfect in every way. Read more

Got this controller for my PC a while back. Don't usually go wireless but its near impossible to avoid if you want quality. Luckily, quality is what this controller has in spades. This might be the nicest controller I've ever held. It packs a fair bit of weight in it that makes it feel like I'm actually holding something, the texture is perfect for maintaining grip and comfort simultaneously, the thumbsticks also have a great texture and feel really responsive, as do all of the buttons, triggers, and the touchpad. The only complaint I had is that it came with no cable, and the instructions don't tell you how to pair it without using the cable. Its simple to do, but instructions would still be nice. For the record you just have to hold the PS button and the Create button down at the same time for a few seconds and it will light up searching for a Bluetooth signal. Also, Steam supports this controller quite nicely. You might need 3rd party software to get it to work with some non-Steam games, BUT you can add those games to your Steam library and get the full functionality and customization of the controller by doing that. I also found that by adding the Epic Games Launcher to my Steam library, I could get games like Elite Dangerous which use their own secondary launcher to also work with this controller, since ED doesn't support the PS5 controller, and Epic Games has zero controller support (and still wanna compete with Steam somehow lmao). TL;DR Get this controller if you want something extremely nice but don't wanna shell out the money for the Astro C40 or the Xbox Elite, just make sure you buy a USB-C charging cable or you know, own a modern Android phone.
