    Good so far but only bought because Sony playstation makes defective controllers which cause a left stick drift over time. No thanks Sony/playstation.

    For some reason the PS5 controller doesn't have a great battery. I remember playing with the PS4 controller almost a whole day before it died. These you get a few hours and it's dieing on you.

    The controller is very nice, if it lasts. Bought an extra for my sons Ps5 and one already stopped working :( I hate that because we love PlayStation products. Hopefully mine was just a defect but we are unfortunately out of the return policy at this point.

    Didn’t last long… Also, too bad Best Buy has decided not to sell physical media anymore. Means I won’t be purchasing from them in the future.

    I've barely had these for 2.5 weeks and the haptic feedback motor in one of them has already gone bad. It's so loose that it makes a loud hollow sound anytime I use it. Shoddy construction. Smh

    Literally built like paper. I have had to return this controller at least 5 times. They barely last half a year before acting up. My Xbox one has outlasted all 5 Playstation controllers. Please fix these for how much we pay for them. I dont drop it or mistreat it in anyway.

    2nd Worst Controller of this Generation

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

    Coming from a Fighting Game Player perspective, the worst controller of this generation is the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller. However the DS5 D-Pad is not as actuate as the DS4 and the grip is less comfortable. Also, Sony choose to make this controller incompatible with the PS4 or PC. I've started gaming on my PC & Tablet and sometimes use PlayStation Remote Play. I'd like to have made the DS5 my go-to but the compatibility is not there. If you need to game on PC or Android then get the new Xbox controller, more colors and work wirelessly with most everything.

    Not Res

    Not Red. More of some form of purple with red mixed in. But this is not Red of any form and is misleading by them calling it red. I don’t believe it to be any shade of red.

    I like it more than the xbox one controller, its bigger and more comfortable with bigger buttons, but it charges very slowly over usb-c for some reason.

    Lasted almost a year before the joystick started drifting. I know something always breaks on these controllers so it was expected. Why I always get a protection plan.
