Customers are saying

Customers praise the product for its appealing color options, sleek design, and reliable overall performance. Users also appreciate the comfortable feel and grip of the controller, noting that the haptic feedback and battery life enhance the gaming experience. However, some users have expressed concerns regarding stick drift and the relatively high price point of the device. Additionally, a small number of customers have noted issues with button responsiveness and the overall weight and size of the unit.

    I bought the controller that had an excellent open box rating. I went on vacation. I tried it out after vacation and it didn’t work. It was clearly not tested and shouldn’t have been listed as excellent condition. I went to Best Buy to return it and I was told I can’t return it because it was 17 days after purchase. I spoke with the manager and he was very rude. I will not purchase anything from Best Buy again. This particular Best Buy is on Rand road in Arlington heights Illinois.

    Stick drift within 2 months? These controllers are not well made at all. I love the look and feel, but they just don't hold up.

    Sold me a defective controller listed as 'excellent condition' but had egregiously terrible stick drift. Basically unusable and was not able to return. Got screwed and customer support was beyond useless.

    Controller trigger button spring failed 3 months after purchase. Controller was replaced under warranty. Original controller which came with system has also developed a headphone jack problem as well and will be returned for replacement. Sony seems to be having problems with these controllers. Unfortunately, you have no alternatives at this time.

    Drift and Poor Battery

    Major drift in the left analog stick on pretty minimum use for gameplay. I also bought another regular White controller. That one completely died while charging. It died mid charge and won't turn back on. Both had a lifespan of less than 6 months on casual gameplay. And now playstation has increased the price on the controllers. It makes local multiplayer such an expensive hobby. How can Sony increase the price of a product with such minimal quality put into it.
