PS5 Edge Controller Review

My first PS5 Edge controller. I do love it but it has a few areas for improvement.
1. Battery life isn’t horrible but it is definitely noticeably less than a standard controller due to its smaller battery.
2. Get rid of the rubber on the inside grips. Mine came with a bubble and I expect them to water quickly.
3. Add some color options!
Other than that it is a great controller. Replaceable joysticks, extra mappable buttons on the back that feel good, and even more fine tuning software support exclusive to this controller. Pretty sweet.

If you want the best version of the DualSense, this is it. It's not 1:1 on par with the lower priced, and a better value, Xbox Elite S2 controllers. Still, having back paddles on this form factor actually feels better with the sticks lower as PlayStation has them traditionally.
I wish there were 4 paddles and allowed for more customization at this price. The big negative is the battery life. Compared to my Series 2 controller I use with my PC, it's 4 hours versus 40. That's comical. It should be considered a hybrid controller that you can expect to plug in if you forget to plug it in or work in a couple of sessions without a full charge between. Keep that in mind! Now, if I ever have stick drift, I can be confident that this controller won't have to be replaced - just the sticks.

This controller is amazing. I was having problems with my regular PS5 controller constantly disconnecting because the cable didn’t lock in, But now no connection issues and I’m finally having fun again with the games I used to enjoy on pc. Feels more durable, has Good weight to it, And eventually, when I get stick drift, I’m not spending a ton of money. I could just change the joysticks. 10/10

I’ve had my ps5 pro controller for 3-4 years now and it still performs as if I just unboxed it! No stick drift thank goodness lol. This controller has been one of the best purchases I’ve made in gaming. It’s worth the price and it pays off in fps games and even has it perks in fighting, racing, and sport games.

A steep price, but it's the last controller ill ever need.
I like the the extra buttons you can program on the back. They replace my L3 and R3 pressing, and just make it easier to use those buttons.
The wired mode is convienient, as I dont need a wireless for my set up and dont need to worry about my controller dying.
I also like the volume control through the controller, and adaptive triggers. It makes switching from different game types, fast and easy.

Excellent controller.high quality. Good feel. Would recommend 10/10 i play ps5 more then my series x because this controller is soo nice. Has paddles in the back with 2 different sets of paddles and thumbsticks. An extra thumbstick is included. Case is high quality, wish they made a charging dock inside like xbox series 2 controller.can change out the thumbstick module completely and add a new thumbstick module if you get stick drift, new thumstick module is $20. Much cheaper then a new controller:)

Bought the Dualsense Edge along with the Razer Wolverine and Victrix BFG Pro to test out. The Edge despite having the worst battery life of the bunch ultimately felt the best overall to me. The BFG felt cheap lacking vibration and haptics. It was just too light. I did turn down the vibration and haptics level to get more battery life out of the Edge. I absolutely hated the back buttons on the Razer.

I bought it for my husband, he's a hard-core call of duty player (just for fun) and he loves it!! The original controller already broke, this looks super steady, grippy, and of course customizable! I think it's pretty cool that you can set 5 profiles depending on the person or the game you are playing. The cable doesn't feel cheap, and i like the case. Pretty nice!

A great addition to the gaming arsenal, this controller is much more durable, and feels nicer to hold than the normal Dualsense. The locking cord is a much more usable feature, and less of a gimmick than I thought. I think it’s mostly worth the steep price if you’re playing a lot, because stick drift is fixable for just $20 with the changeable modules, instead of just buying a whole new controller.

Wont have to worry about stick drift and feels nice on the hands especially the shorten triggers but the battery is smaller ao dies quicker is the only downside but if you game close to your tv or monitor you can just plug and play easily

I recently bought the DualSense Edge controller from Best Buy, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience! The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, answering all my questions about the controller’s features and compatibility. The checkout process was smooth, and the product was available for immediate pickup, which was super convenient.
As for the controller itself, it’s a game-changer. The customizable buttons and enhanced grip make gaming more immersive, especially for competitive play. Best Buy had a great display that allowed me to see the product up close before purchasing, which made the decision easy.
Overall, a fantastic purchase experience! If you’re looking for quality tech products and excellent customer service, Best Buy is the place to go.

this pro controller not only has a tons of customization features, but it also makes my experience very enthusiast-aimed when playing! i have so many pros about this high price controller, it honestly gives a version of the excellent, the back buttons are a game-changer of course, it even comes with its own package, & i heard it works well for PC! worth the price & i recommend.

Sony really did well on this controller I wasn’t how they were going to execute this one. But man did they exceed my expectations further I love this controller, there’s so many things you can do with this device. My favorite one is the customization of this controller how you can change the trigger if you want to press it quicker. Overall great controller I suggest y’all to get this.

This controller has helped me so much in FPS games and arc raiders. The ability to switch out the joysticks and the thumb stick hight had been awesome!

The convex sticks feel as wonderful as the first and second PlayStation consoles. I don’t one how I’ll ever want to go back to the regular controllers again. I don’t know if anyone else knows this but if you look closely at the “grips” the tiny bumps are actually PlayStation’s iconic square, triangle, circle, cross shapes. It’s amazing. I also purchased two replacement joy sticks from PlayStation direct as Best Buy was sold out, unfortunately. However, they sell out fast so this isn’t any kind of slight to Best Buy. I purchased the midnight black edge for my husband and was sold on it. I’m so extremely happy.

Have used this controller for over a year now, no stick drift, no problems at all. Absolutely love the ability to change the input in the triggers. Highly recommend

This controller has been one of the best controllers I have used. It has a ton of different ways to customize and is very durable. It lasted me almost 3 years before stick drift STARTED. It got unplayable after 4 years.

Wont play with a basic controller again. They have a bit more wieght to them. Sturdy. Buttons sticks etc feel great. Slide buttons in back for tension is the best. R2 L2 triggers don't need to be pressed all the way down. Battery life is much shorter than regular controller though. Maybe after 4-5 hours needs charged in my experience of heavy gameplay.

I like the aesthetics, and the controller is comfortable to hold in my hand. The back pedals give me an edge, and for me, they are in a comfortable position. The customization options of the controller are very useful. The ability to change the analogs is a huge plus as well.
