    The pad looks good. I like the color and it sound and vibration functions more than the joy stick that came with the ps5 console.

    I recently purchased the Sony PlayStation 5 DualSense Controller from Best Buy, and I can confidently say this is the best gaming accessory I’ve ever owned! From the moment I unboxed it, I knew I was in for something special. Design & Comfort – A Game-Changer Sony has truly perfected the ergonomics with the DualSense controller. It feels incredibly comfortable in my hands, with just the right weight and grip. The button layout is intuitive, and the sleek, futuristic design looks amazing next to my PS5. Haptic Feedback – Mind-Blowing Immersion The haptic feedback and adaptive triggers redefine gaming. Feeling the tension in the triggers while drawing a bow in Horizon Forbidden West or sensing subtle vibrations while racing in Gran Turismo 7 makes every moment incredibly realistic. It’s not just a controller—it’s an experience. Battery Life & Connectivity – Flawless Performance Battery life is exceptional, lasting hours of intense gaming. The fast charging via USB-C is a huge plus, and the wireless connection is seamless, with zero input lag. Whether I’m gaming solo or playing online, the DualSense never misses a beat. Best Buy Service – 5 Stars! Best Buy made this purchase effortless! Easy online ordering, fast shipping, and perfect packaging—my controller arrived in pristine condition, ready to power up my gaming sessions. Final Verdict: A Must-Have for Every Gamer! The DualSense controller is a true masterpiece that enhances every aspect of gaming. Thank you, Best Buy and Sony, for delivering an unforgettable experience! If you own a PS5, this is an absolute must-buy.

    Bought pre-owned from best buy. Condition was listed as excellent (like new). Only realized 1 week in that the D-pad was defective (up arrow on D-pad did not work). Quality control on the pre-owned products seems to be cursory at best as a 2nd controller I purchased pre-owned had terrible drift. If you have to buy from Best Buy, recommend new. Don't even bother with pre-owned.

    Functionally it’s the best controller out there but the battery life is soooo bad. After a year it lasts about 3 hours.

    Surprisingly good with input lag over Bluetooth compared to my Xbox one controller. At first I thought it was broken, but if you use it with Bluetooth on PC you need to remove it from paired devices before plugging it in directly for adaptive triggers and haptics.

    The controller itself is amazing. My problem is that I got a faulty controller with damaged speaker and I didn’t notice that until it was too late to return.

    Battery life is short and you get stick drift too fast so you're constantly buying new controls. The trigger feels good and the resistance you get from the is a neat feature, but the other two problems i mentioned really keeps me from giving much credit to it. Especially with the price

    Got analaog drift about 4 months after purchase. Sony's warranty will replace it for "free" but I have to ship the controller and pay for that myself. Not only that, it could be weeks before receiving a replacement. With the Joycons I was fairly forgiving, because it took over for me to experience. But in this case, Sony, I am very disappointed. Countless publications have brought up the issue, and your company should be going out of its way to make it easy to solve these kinds of problems. Just leaving this review as a warning to others thinking of picking up this controller.

    I purchased this in November of 2022, and on February 1st the right stick started having drift issues. I mostly only use my PS5 for streaming movies. These controllers are not cheap, so it should continue to work with zero issues for longer than a few months. Especially if I'm using it to watch Movies. Since it's February now; I cannot return this item. It lasted just long enough for my return policy to end. It was a nice product while it lasted; it just doesn't last that long.

    I know I would love this controller. But the delivery from Roadie was horrible. I gave the correct adress and the driver claimed he still couldn't find my house. I decided to return the product and just buy it from elsewhere.
