    These controllers are trash. They are way too expensive to keep getting "drift" on either trigger stick. I've had two fail.

    I’m sorry, but this controllers are really bad quality. It’s shifting to the left all the time. It only lasted 1 month and I barely played!

    Product is garbage. Purchased this as a replacement to the one that came with the system purchased 8 months ago. This lasted 5 weeks, just outside the Best Buy return window. Obviously they want you to buy their warranty otherwise now I have to deal with Sony.

    I bought this open box for in store pick up. It was in a ripped up and smashed box. It was dusty and covered in fingerprints with the dirt from the previous users hand in the creases. Best Buy didn’t bother to wipe this down. It had very minor cosmetic scratches. But other than that it works perfectly fine but for nearly the same price as a new controller this isn’t acceptable.

    Bought to pair with my Steam Deck when docked. Works fairly well, have to re-pair on occasion and I wish the battery lasted longer.

    After waiting multiple days to receive my order of this PS5 controller, I still have not received it. FedEx tracking keys saying “out for delivery,” but it never gets delivered. I contacted Best Buy and their solution is for me to wait an additional 3-10 days while they try to track it down with FedEx!

    Out of 3, one works. We have a designated place to store them, clean house, clean wires, no food or water spilt on them…just a waste of money, sadly.

    Works but disappointed in color. Advertised as cosmic red....cost $15 more...looks pink in person. Aside from that does everything the same as the white controller...

    After about a week of using it, the joysticks would be too sensitive. Set it down lightly on a table and before you know it, you fast forwarded through half of a movie
