Customers are saying

Customers value the appealing color options, sleek design, and solid overall performance of this controller. Users frequently highlight the comfortable grip and enjoyable haptic feedback as key benefits during gameplay. However, some individuals have expressed concerns regarding the prevalence of stick drift and the relatively high price point of the device. Additionally, a small number of users noted issues with button responsiveness and the overall weight of the unit.

    Don’t buy things online via bestbuy especially if it’s in store because then it’ll take them forever. This literally took you guys almost 2 months just to send me the controller even tho it is one of the most available products for the PS5

    Bought an open box that a customer scammed and said it was brand new. That controller was rode hard and returned broken. Be careful on what you buy open box. It said excellent but the right trigger was about to fall off.

    It took less then 30 days for both controllers R2 to start malfunctioning, adaptive triggers no longer work, they have become super touchy even if I rest the weight of my fingers on the trigger I find myself randomly shooting

    I can’t review this product because the PlayStation 5 on the order with it did not ship. Because Best Buy won’t install security to stop bot hackers nobody has a PlayStation 5 console to use their controllers on.
