Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased 3 Duals at launch of PS5 for whatever year that was. 2 have now developed drift in the left stick, one so bad it was completely retired probably 12 mths ago, creating the need for a new purchase. Why is this a thing now with controllers? Had to replace a couple of Joy-cons and was all on my soapbox about Nin quality control, then Sony— same thing. Frustrating; still have several PS 3 & 4 duals in commission without durability issues. Anyway, you can throw a bunch of money at an Edge, to hedge on the problem, or get this one and pray to Kronos that it doesn’t venture off to Valhöll before PS6 drops. I opted for religion and—for now—more money in my wallet. And if you are going to do battle, might as well pull on the grey camo. I continue to be a sucker for this color aesthetic each gen, would do a green too if available (and could find on sale). Five stars overall for the color, feel, triggers, etc of the new DS; two stars for durability in my family’s usage but I never touch third-party cons to recommend you elsewhere. As always: your mileage may vary.

Great PS5 controller. I play with it on a Windows laptop

Great controller - love the black. Looks slick and works great

Easy to connect to the PC, easy to use. One of the better controllers I have ever used. I like to use a controller for platformers, and this is perfect for this usage. I have used a wired Xbox360 controller for years, and it is still my favorite, but this one is a close competitor.

I've had this remote for a bit over a year and it already has stick drift in the left joystick. This is due to my heavy FPS gaming. I run like a madman and thus the drift happened. Opened the controller and cleaned it properly. Worked great for like 2 hours then it reverted back to drifting. Contacted Sony, but I was 1 month over the warranty. I just ordered the Edge controller. If you have the money, I'd say do the same. But this controller is still solid. Better for casual gaming.

Nice camo color on the control, works smoothly and has no trouble with it at all

Works great and haven't had any problems within a year of almost daily use!

I love the dual sense controllers from PlayStation. Definitely one of the best controllers on the market, and the new colors are a perfect touch.

The PS5 controller is a game-changer. With its ergonomic design, adaptive triggers, and haptic feedback, it offers an immersive gaming experience like never before. The built-in microphone and touchpad add convenience, while the improved battery life ensures uninterrupted gameplay. It's a must-have accessory for any PS5 owner.

I would recommend this product to a friend. It has a great feel and body to it. Game plays is smooth.

I bought this controller as soon as I saw them on sale at Best Buy. There wasn’t anything wrong with my original DualSense controller but I wanted to do the hair trigger and rear paddle mods to my original and I wanted an unmodded controller for racing games or other games that needed normal L2 R2 triggers. I never had any trouble with stick drift or other issues some have reported, I do keep my controllers clean though. I like the gray camo pattern, hopefully Sony releases matching covers for the PS5 Pro. Battery life is great, everything works like you’d expect. Leaving this one stock for now.

This is a nice army control, very comfortable on hands to play with

WORKS GREAT FEEL GOOD AND HAS A LONG BATTERY LIFE HIGH REVIEWS FOR ME

It is soft, comfortable, pleasant to the touch, durable, and has good battery life.

Great Controller, design is great, price is great, and still works after almost daily use.

This is an outstanding controller! The ergonomic design feels great in my hands for hours of gaming, and the unique camo pattern looks even better in person. The responsiveness is excellent—it truly enhances the gaming experience.

The controller is an awesome metallic blue, unless it's in the sun light... IT TURNS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PURPLE! I bought it for my son to replace his original PS5 controller (stick drift).I cannot tell you if this one is also prone to stick drift or the time it takes not yet at least. I will attempt to update the review as gameplay will reveal it's durability.

This review follows from my original DualSense controller (that came with the PS5 on launch day) all of a sudden losing input on the down d-pad button, essentially forcing me to buy a new DualSense, since no one seems to want to fix it (and that includes Best Buy/Geek Squad). However, coming from the original launch day white model, I feel like this Midnight Black DualSense is a much better product. I believe there may be subtle tweaks that have been made in the newer color models (i.e., better trigger haptics, buttons being a bit clickier, etc.) that make it superior to the original, but I will also say that the color is great, and I prefer it to the white. While the black might not match how the original console looks (without black faceplates), it is a better color because it does not collect dirt/sweat/random hand secretions in the back textured crevices (at least that is visible). My big complaint with the original white was that no matter how clean your hands were, the back of the controller eventually got dirty. The black color seems to avoid this issue for the most part, and that alone makes it worth getting over the standard white. All in all, it's not a PlayStation without a nice black controller, and this one does the job very well. Hopefully the buttons will last on this one for longer than a year and a half.

Very nice controller. Easy to set up! The color is bright.

This controller is awesome,I love the matte black finish and the subtle upgrades made to the new design and features.Best Buy and their staff were extremely helpful and friendly in helping me out with this purchase.They are my go to for electronics.
