    This was my second ever ps5 controller and it was just as good as the original one or if not better. I love the all black to it, it just makes it look so clean. For the most part it was fine and did what any controller is suppose to do till a few months later it started to have stick drift issues like they’re commonly known for. I took it apart myself to clean the sticks multiple times and it would fix it for sometime but ultimately it’s not permanent. Definitely recommend the midnight black for anyone considering.

    Great price for an open boxed controller. There's no scratches, dents, or residue feel on it. Looking at the color gives me a nostalgic feeling of playing my Gameboy SP.

    The PS5 DualSense controller is a major upgrade from previous generations. Its ergonomic design feels comfortable in hand, and the adaptive triggers provide a new level of immersion, adjusting tension based on in-game actions. The haptic feedback is incredibly precise, offering a more tactile and dynamic gaming experience. The built-in microphone is also a nice touch, reducing the need for a headset in certain situations. Overall, the DualSense is a fantastic controller that enhances gameplay in every way—highly recommended!

    What’s a good controller sure doesn’t handle intense gaming but it’s perfect for my needs. It may drift after long-term use, but we have the protection plan on it which is totally worth it.

    I play mostly on pc and I wondered about the haptic triggers. Pretty cool gimmick on games that support it, and there's even programs to enable it on any game you want. So the ergonomics feels great in my hands, which are relatively big as I am 6'3. Everyone whose used it seems to really like it for it's feel, and that includes smaller hands. I like the dpad a lot, which is a big deal for me since I play a lot of fighting games and platformers. Sometimes grabbing my arcade stick isn't always convenient and this is an okay alternative. Feels great for all games in general, although it would be perfect had it had 4 back buttons. I know the dual sense edge exists, but only having 2 back buttons rather than 4 is a cardinal sin in my book, especially for the asking price. Oh, and picked this up on sale for $50 which is worth it, since I can't bring myself to pay msrp for even a first party controller.

    Needed a replacement after my old one got stick drift. This one came in the original packaging and worked perfect out of the box. I've had it for a month now. Happy with my purchase.

    PS5 Controller Review

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The controller overall works great! For those who are new to gaming, these controllers are (naturally) required to operate the PlayStation 5 console device. Be sure to pick one up at your nearest BestBuy store or order one online. PlayStation 5 Controller Summary: The controller design reminds me of an XBOX controller, it has an obtuse grip, but is otherwise smooth for gameplay. Those who use these controllers for casual gaming should be fine. *I feel the new PlayStation 5 controllers could use more ergonomic design for intense gameplay. The PlayStation 5 controllers die faster than previous PlayStation 4 controllers and often require switching out. *I recommend buying two PS5 Controllers or always keeping a controller plugged in charging. *Sometimes there are sensitivity issues with WiFi routers or bluetooth device interference. Features: • Allows bluetooth pairing with other devices, such as mobile phones and tablets. • Features a built-in microphone *This feature can be sketchy at times, you must not forget to mute yourself when leaving the room so other people cannot hear you on accident. • Features a customary Playstation 5 LED touch pad for added game options and texting in-game. • The charging cable requires a "Type C" charging cable to recharge the device. *Charging usually takes about 45 minutes to and hour to fully charge. This concludes my review.

    Controller is solid. Fun color and very responsive. My daughter was absolutely thrilled when she found out she could play with this specific control with her favorite kid games. $75 is a little much but got it at a great sale price so totally worth it.

    The controller is comfortable to play with for long periods of time if. My thumbs don’t go numb thanks to the place the thumb sticks are. The color design is very nice, honestly my favorite.
