    A very well-made controller. After some initial hassle in connecting it that just took a Google search to figure out what I was doing wrong, we have had no problems with this controller. Buttons feel great and the machine responds snappily.

    I had a good visit to my local Best Buy, I was picking up a controller and ended up leaving with 2 new games and stuff for my kids Nintendo Switch. The sales associates were helpful with game recommendations and helped me with games they didn't even have.

    When the new controller was shown, I was very opposed to it, but after using it for many weeks I need to admit this is one of the greatest and best fitting controllers I've ever used. I do wish the PS4 could take more than 4 controllers at a time, but that's an argument for another day.

    The thumb stick covers seem improved over the original design. Also, compared with the DualShock 3 it's much more comfortable and the buttons, especially the triggers feel better. I still find the battery life, even with the light bar turned down in software it is shorter in playtime than my DualShock 3 and Sixaxis overall even though it technically has a larger battery. I'm not sure what besides the light is draining the power faster but it's annoying.

    Not much to say, basic controller works good. I didn't find a need to pay more just for the special color controller.

    I picked up this controller because my old PS4 controller went real dead real hard and I was pleasantly surprised that there is now added texture to the thumb sticks to prevent slippage while gaming. I've always been a Sony fan and enjoy using the Dual Shock 4.

    I had to return them 2 time due to L1, R1 getting stuck on the corner when you push it, after maybe 10 hr or less of use. I also, didn't like how the controller I got keep having this cracking noise to it like it wasn't build properly. Comparing the feel to the ps3 dualshock it feel more solid and a little heavy, with the ps4 it feels to cheap like if I was to drop it, it would break. However, the change they made to the control is good. I like the touch pad, the new concave analog, and the Trigger L2, and R2.

    I would swear Sony designs these things to be consumable! I only buy them on sale typically $40-45 for this reason. Have had many of these controllers and always something, R1 sticks, up button sticks, vibration stop working, and no I am not a child throwing them. I do alot of PVP in games and small flaws are noticeable.

    Same controller just a different color. I don't know if it's just my controller but one of my buttons sticks when pressing it. Doesn't affect gameplay but gets annoying
