    This controller is everything you need in a controller. Soft to touch that it doesn’t seem to get uncomfortable for playing for long periods of time. Plus you will never have to worry about stick drift again with the ability to change out the sticks!!! The price may seem scary but the over all value of this controller makes it worth every penny! You won’t be disappointed in this purchase at all!

    The best elite controller... IF you have a PS5

    This is the best elite controller, hands down. I've used Microsoft's Elite controller, and I've owned a couple of SCUFs. Sony just knows how to make a fantastic controller. Feel is great. Sticks you can swap as they wear out is a fantastic feature from the console manufacturer. And there's so much more. Just look at the features/specs list. That being said, you do NEED a PS5 to set up the controller profiles. Once that's done, the profiles stay onboard the controller. Bare minimum you need to know someone that has a PS5. Only way I don't recommend this controller is if you're on a budget. If you are, go 8bitdo.

    The controller is the same size and shape as the standard PS5 controllers, but it is better in every way. The back has a textured rubber grip that makes it easier to hold than the original. It also comes with multiple customizable buttons for the rear of the controller including analog sticks of different shape and size. My favorite feature is the replaceable joy sticks it makes life a lot easier plus it is considerably cheaper than having to buy a new controller. Definitely one of the best controllers I have purchased.

    Yes, it should be the ultimate ps5 controller. It will feel that way in your hands. I love everything about this controller except: - touch pad is occasionally slow to respond - the share/hamburger menu buttons have a cheaply thunk to them -the battery is meh

    It’s great overall, instead of spending 70-80$ on a regular controller after it breaks you can make a one time purchase of about 200$ and only have to replace the joysticks for 20$ each

    Solid controller. Wish it had 4 buttons, but two isnt terrible. Love that I can change thumb sticks if needed. Adjustable triggers arent bad either. Grippy back for your hands. Wish it came in another color. Feels like a pro controller and not bad for a first attempt.

    Bought for my son who goes through 3-4 standard controllers a year due to stick drift ( thank goodness for extended warranty's) Now, for $20 I can just replace the left thumb stick if or when he experiences stick drift again. Hopefully in the future Sony will make Hall Effect Magnetic sticks for this...Fingers Crossed!

    It's a great controller, very solid feeling in your hand. I would give it 4.5 star if it would let me The buttons on the back are easy to use. The only negative to it is the shorter battery life compared to a normal playstation controller.
