Customer Ratings & Reviews

Other than the battery life, the additional buttons on the back make this the ultimate PlayStation controller. However, Sony counters this with an included 10 ft USB cord. The profiles are simple to edit as well to allow you to create any button configuration that you like.

Been using it for a while, it’s still pretty good and feels great

Overall great performance, love the mappable paddles and the additional controller performance programs that unlock on the PS5 once paired up only complaint I have is battery life my results have been about 5.5 - 6 hrs max

I like the customization and the back paddles. The battery life is really low on it. If you like to game for a long period of time prepare to be wired.

Love the controller, feels good in hand and performs great. Would be 5 star if battery life was better.

Easily one of the best controllers Ive ever held. There are just so many nice quality of life things that you get and also the ability to tune and adjust the analog curve for the dead zones, as well as button mapping all done on console.

While the controller is on the pricey side, i highly recommend it. Everything feels great and the back buttons are a perfect addition. Seems like a small detail but makes games more enjoyable. Battery life is the only complaint but thats a problem since the ps4

The PS5 Pro Controller is a fantastic upgrade for anyone who loves gaming. From the first time you hold it, you can tell it’s made with quality materials. It’s comfortable to hold, even for long gaming sessions, thanks to its smooth, textured grips that prevent your hands from slipping.

I recently purchased a VR headset for my son at Best Buy, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! From the moment I walked into the store, I was greeted by a warm and welcoming staff eager to help. The selection was impressive, featuring the latest models and accessories. The associate who assisted me was incredibly knowledgeable about the products, patiently answering all my questions and helping me choose the perfect headset for my son’s needs. They even offered great insights on the best games and additional gear to enhance the VR experience. The checkout process was seamless, and I appreciated how the staff ensured I understood the return policy and warranty details. Once I got home, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the setup was straightforward, and my son was over the moon with excitement! Best Buy truly excels in customer service and product quality. I highly recommend this store for anyone looking to purchase electronics. My son’s joy and enthusiasm for his new VR headset are a testament to the excellent advice and service I received. Thank you, Best Buy, for making this purchase such a fantastic experience!

This controller is amazing, Haven’t ran into any stick drift issues and I love the customization. Battery life could be better but the charging cable is long enough and locks so it doesn’t damage the cord or the controller port.

Great controller and love all the customization that this controller has! You can switch out the analog stick grips and even set a length of the triggers. Also like the back buttons that you can assign to any button which makes gaming much better!

This Dualsense Edge controller is better than the regular dualsense controller, the main benefit being the back paddles. Out of a scale of 1 to 10, I would give this a 7.8. The controller and paddles seem very sturdy, but the biggest disadvantage is that there's only a maximum of 2 paddles for the back which is definitely insufficient. 4 paddle options for the rear would have made this worth the $216.00 price tag! I hope Sony didn't short us now only to release a "Pro Edge Elite" version down the line with 4 paddles! I play with my controllers plugged in so battery life is not an issue for me. The FN keys are a nice feature to quickly access the Edge settings and i would like to see other implementations to use these function buttons, perhaps adding them to the mapping board would be nice. The feature to adjust the Stick Sensitivity and Deadzones is the next best feature. This is a great advancement for shooter games like Apex and COD. Settings like the Quick, Dynamic, and Digital Curve Adjustments really make a difference for how your player movement and aim take effect in game. If you tweak these with the right in game settings as well, you can set up some godlike aim and movement (after getting use to it ofcourse)! I wish the controller was lighter, perhaps offering an option to sell some without the rumble would be nice. I also bought a Hypr Controller at the same time so while reviewing the Edge, i'm also comparing it to the Hypr one. I would have to give the upper hand to Hypr with a score of 8.3 and not without good reason. First off, the Hypr Controller cost me $250, has 4 remappable back buttons (not paddles, which makes it easier and more comfortable to hold). I had an option to customize my own colors and it's just like a stock dualsense except better because i had the option to remove the "rumble pack" which makes that controller light as a feather and the best thing to hold. The Quick mechanical triggers are far better than the Edge and, even the interchangeable toggles have a way better texture design and grip to them as opposed to the standard Sony toggle designs. The Hypr anti sweat grip option on the rear is also much better than the Edge's rear. The Edge in my opinion still feels a little slippery compared to Hypr's. So for me, there were more and also better options that Hypr offered only for $35 more which is not bad. The biggest concern ofcourse, is that there's no option to change the Joystick Module like the Edge has, so eventually, months down the line, this Hypr controller will become useless and need repair or replacement. If i'm not mistaken, there was a class action lawsuit against Sony for their stick drift issues on their controllers and it's nice to see Sony make them replaceable on the Dualsense Edge. I wasn't happy that my 2 regular Dualsense controllers suffered severe stick issues making them useless which prompted me to spend more money on newer controllers now. Also, the replaceable Toggles should cost more like $12 each and not $20. Thats almost a brand new regular dualsense for the price of 2 stick modules! Come on Sony! We already paid a premium price for a less advanced dualnsense edge compared to the competition out there, don't nickel and dime us for every bit of the pie! Needless to say the Hypr controller doesn't feel as sturdy as the Edge controller, the mute button and option buttons are difficult to press in which make the craftmanship a little questionable. Hypr is located out of the US so it takes a while for build and delivery. More importantly, i have switched between both controllers during games and for some reason, my aim is more accurate and laser like with the Hypr one. I've tested this out A Lot and i still don't get why because there is no option to make extra Curve Adjustments for the Hypr controller, its just like a stock dualsense. But, for whatever reason, Aiming and shooting my targets especially on Apex is always more accurate with the Hypr controller. I expect this to get worse as the controller gets the inevitable stick drift though. So for this reason, and because it has more options to customize for performance (removable rumble, 4 remappable buttons, quick triggers, rear grip, grippy toggles), and comfortableness, Hypr gets a higher score but it's not too far from the Dualsense edge in utility. Sony has the upper hand with the replaceable stick modules, but, will the rest of the controller hold up over time? I guess only time will tell. So in summary, the Dualsense Edge is a great controller but when it's put against the other competitors for Performance Controllers, it's still lacking in some features and design. There are some great steps foward but also a couple backwards steps as well. If Sony plays things correctly, things can only get better going foward for future iterations!

The DualSense Edge is a premium, super-customizable PS5 controller that really shines if you take your gaming seriously. The adjustable triggers, remappable buttons, back paddles, and multiple control profiles give you way more control and precision than the standard DualSense, and the build quality feels solid and comfortable in long sessions. It’s definitely pricey, and the battery life is shorter than the regular controller, but if you want pro-level features, smoother aim, faster reactions, and a controller that you can truly tailor to each game, the Edge delivers.

OK - first off, this is a well made controller. Unfortunately it suffers from a bunch of design flaws. #1 which is a highly preferential issue is the motion control or "gyro" mechanics. For some reason (my assumption is space) Sony decided to use different gyro parts than the standard Dual Sense (which I also own). Unlike the standard Dual Sense, the Edge gyro has way too much drift. In fact it has more than the Dual Shock. The Dual Sense is pretty much perfect so I don't know why they decided to change this element. #2 is the analog sticks. The ability to change sticks, when damaged, is great. i actually owned the Astro C40 which had this functionality...but that was before hall effect sticks. This seems like a stop gap measure for this product based on where the technology currently stands. I still think the ability to swap stick makes sense - but they probably could have reduced cost if they simply went with a more durable joystick. Although it would be ideal to have two more back buttons, it wouldn't be a deal breaker for me in the future. So based on the total cost and the two main issues, I gave it the three stars.

Tried a ton of controllers from razer and the modular bfg and xbox elite and a ton of 8bitdo ones and this is my absolute favorite. The locking cord is fantastic, the weight and texturing and size, the haptics and swappable sticks and rear buttons are all just so great. Genuinely out of 30+ years gaming this is the best controller ive used even for the high price. And thats coming from a pc gamer, i dont even have a ps5, its working great especially with games that support the dualsense haptics like helldivers 2

As a big gamer with multiple dualsense controllers, I was on the fence about getting this as the price is high and I did not need it by any means. It turned out to be an amazing purchase. The extra sticks are nice and i like the feel of the classic PS3 sticks and different height levels, makes the controller feel unique. The actual feel of the controller is different its more rounded and has padding, my hand doesnt hurt as much when compared to a normal dualsense. Back paddles are awesome of course, but the most surprising feature was the tuning of the sticks and setting custom profiles. Turned out I use that way more than i would have ever thought. Quickly switching profiles between games has become natural for me and allows my fingers to not move off the face buttons. Battery life has not been a problem as the cord is really long and i keep it charged. If you game a ton on the PS5, i highly recommend this.

This controller takes the already great design of the dual sense 5 and combines it with the premium features seen amongst other premium controllers for other gaming mediums. The trigger stops feel natural with no play, the replaceable joystick pieces feel sturdy, and the swappable back buttons that come within the hardshell case fit perfectly where your hands lie. Altogether this makes a wonderful experience when using the controller. It is just a tad heavier than the regular dual sense, but feels much sturdier in comparison. The only gripes i have are that it struggles to interface on pc. Without the ability to change button mapping settings on pc, i have been extremely limited in my use, unless i hook it up to my console amd swap the button mapping there first. Truly love the feel of this controller though, it was certainly everything i had hoped for at this price point in terms of build quality.

Dont waste your money on the regular controllers, this is the one for any hardcore and pro gammer. It has everything from the regular controller and more. Very easy to replace components (hard to find), as soon as you grab it you can feel the premium quality. Highly recommended. You can think it is a very expensive controller, but it will be the last one you will buy.

The DualSense Edge is everything you want a pro controller to be. It's a premium design that doesn't feel cheaply made. The buttons have zero input lag and 'click' very nicely. The triggers on the back are perfectly positioned for easy access without accidental hitting during gameplay. The customizable options in the PS5 dashboard is easy to follow. The plate is a glossy finish. I would prefer a matte finish, but it's no big deal. The only con is the battery life. If you're a casual gamer, you won't have a problem. If you're hardcore, you might get 4-5 hours out of a charge. So the battery life is no better than the original controllers. They make up for it with a solidly built, long charging cord with a locking mechanism that plugs right into your controller. Charge time is pretty standard. Overall, while it might do you well to get this on sale instead of paying $200, it's a great controller and you'll be happy with this investment.

The DualSense Edge controller is a total game-changer for serious players. Right out of the box, it feels solid, premium, and perfectly balanced. The customizable back buttons, adjustable trigger stops, and swappable stick modules give me full control over my gameplay. Whether I'm racing, shooting, or exploring open worlds, every input feels crisp and responsive. The software customization options are deep but easy to navigate, and it all syncs seamlessly with the PS5. Battery life is solid considering all the features, and the included carrying case is a nice touch. If you're looking to elevate your gaming setup, this is the controller to get!
