    Love the D-Pad, but the overall design is a tad too bulky for my liking.

    I wish Sony would make a better product. In 18 months, we have had 6 of these fail at some point.

    Bought it in April 2022 in January 2023 it stopped working. The left joystick gets stuck in the left position without even moving the joystick. PlayStation online service/repair system is useless. I’m disappointed that Sony makes things disposable and so cheap. Didn’t even last a year.

    Not sure what it is with the products from Best Buy but everything I buy from there tends to be very bad quality- this controller keeps making a knocking sound whenever the controller vibrates.

    I'd love to see if they work, but alas, there are no consoles being sold. It makes for a poor wind chime but a fairly useful, albeit expensive, cat toy. Completely failed as an undergarment or facial covering. I tried blowing in the one end but found it to be alarmingly musically challenged. I pasted a few onto my dog and now he resembles a storm trooper, so there's that.
