    Best Replacement Controller Ever

    Bought this controller to replace my failing 1st Gen controller because of stick drift. Love that this looks and feels like a regular stock controller but has a better weight and feel to it. The customization of buttons and modular parts make this just as viable as a more expensive, custom controller.

    The controller is incredible, it is very customizable and adaptable to any kinda of game or gamer and has profiles for your games, replaceable sticks means you won't need to buy a new one, the downside they are 15-20 dollars but it beats 79 for a new dualsense.

    The only downside to this would be the battery life. Otherwise everything is a positive. Even the extra weight feels great

    Hands down, the Best PS5 controller to invest in. It's extremely versatile, great features that give you an advantage in competitive gaming. It feels great on the hands and it's even smaller than the original dualshock controller. It's A No brainer purchase.

    Next level controller. I like the fact that it comes with customizable joysticks, and various Add-Ons. I also like the feature where you can adjust the L2 and R2 trigger buttons in the back.

    Steam is weird

    If you plan on using the song PC, the steam overlay, for some reason, recognizes it as a steam, controller and not. And controller at first when it released and recognize it as it is also edge controller, but for some reason it doesn’t anymore so take into account it’s gonna be a little bit weird if using it on PC for now until they update it or fix it still really good controller. The petals are really good. They are identified as their own buttons and not connected button just like it is on a PlayStation.

    Great controller, but a little expensive for a couple added features, but i love controller. Would've been nice if they threw in a extra joystick module for a total price of $200. Overall great controller

    Helps up your game with the extra buttons or paddles. The custom options are awesome and very helpful. Being able to customize each joystick sensitivity and dead zone are super helpful. Sony really nailed it with the design and comfort in mind as well. Definitely recommend this controller over a Scuf if you are in the market for one.

    Vibration is inconsistent, but the quality of the control is great. I used the get slaughtered in COD for like the first 3 months of game play, but right out the box i was 1.1 k/d ratio. Huge improvement

    I use it on my PC the software drivers are not quite there yet, but there is an app on steam that does a good job(DSX). Replaceable thumb stick modules are a game changer, I can now replace them for $20 rather than buy new controller. Triggers are also great in games that support them, COD feels great with adaptive triggers.

    I got as a present for my boyfriend. He loves it a lot and a cool part of it that even though you can play hard on it, all the part can be replaceable.

    I love love love this controller, even if it did almost give me a stroke trying to get it running on win 11, in wireless mode. It is beautiful and shiny, and oh so comfortable in the hands to use on those all night gaming sessions. Almost gave it 4 stars but its not Sony's fault it is hard to setup on win 11, that is on Microsoft's fault.

    I love this controller! I was apprehensive to buy it because of the price tag, historically I haven't cared for Pro Controllers. But this one actually feels just like the standard PS5 controller in my hand. Great choice in my opinion to take your gaming up a notch.

    The Stick drift fix for $200

    Nothing missing, item works. The qr code instructions did not work, that was annoying. Search engines exist, so not that bad. Would have liked physical instructions though. Sucks the stick drift fix is $200. On the bright side, the controller itself has deadzone settings. So, even when sticks start to go you can use them a while longer and on any game. Why deadzone setting are not standard for games or all controllers, clearly to sell you this.
