    To preface, I own multiple consoles: a Gamecube, a Wii, a PS2, an Xbox 360, a PS4, and an Xbox One. These days, I'm a PC gamer, but (more often than not) I find myself using Steam Link with my Apple TV so that I can stay in the living room with my wife, since she likes to watch me game and it means I don't have to be set up in a room away from her for hours at a time. This thing is PERFECT for that, as it has Bluetooth capability out of the box, and it appears to be strong enough that I've never had any connectivity issues (except with the Steam Deck, but that's more of a Deck issue I think). But this controller gets better than just that: similar to Nintendo's Joycons, this controller has a VERY nice haptic feedback setup, allowing for "textured" vibration and feedback that typical rumble motors can't quite achieve. It also features Sony's proprietary "adaptive triggers," which are AMAZING when implemented well. Unfortunately, both haptics and adaptive triggers are only supported by a handful of games, and (usually) only when plugged in with a cable directly to the PC, but when it works, it completely changes the feel of gaming with a gamepad. Finally, while I HATED the PS4's controller for its cheap plastic feel, weak joysticks, lack of ergonomics, and terrible build quality, the DualSense feels like it's built like a brick house. Even compared to Xbox's BEEFY controllers, this thing holds its own, and has a premium feel that was sorely lacking in the Dualshock 4's design. I can't praise this controller enough, it's absolutely worth the cost.

    Pretty good controller actually gets you going and has a slight vibe with it because of the ambient light the controller has with all black design, makes you feel, fancy.. rather then the boring white n black colorway.

    10x better than the Dualshock 4. Triggers have haptic rumble feedback so the feeling of shooting or something when using R2 is darn neat. Each trigger button (L2 and R2) have this feature. Also, the controller as a whole has haptic rumble feedback. This means the rumble capabilities are very specific and can go from very trivial to a huge rocking bouncing depending on the situation or action in game that it’s coordinating to. Battery life is actually a bit better than the DS4 which is crazy considering all the features this thing has. I would suggest getting 2 as soon as you can so you can always be able to play and not have to wait for it to charge if you fall asleep without charging the controller.

    Typical PS5 controller. Necessary & good buy. Joystick is stiff in certain games and doesn't rotate camera in certain games. However, maybe it's just Sony and has nothing to do with BestBuy.

    The PS5 controller feels amazing in your hands and has a really premium design. The adaptive triggers and vibration features make games feel much more realistic and immersive. The buttons are responsive, the battery life is decent, and it’s comfortable to use for long gaming sessions. I also like how easy it connects and how smooth the controls feel while playing. Overall, it’s a huge upgrade and definitely worth it for any gamer.

    My son received this controller for a birthday gift to replace his old ones. He loves the color as it coordinates with his bedroom theme and says the battery life seems longer.

    I recently purchased the Sony PlayStation 5 DualSense Wireless Controller in Starlight Blue and I have been very impressed with its performance. The controller feels comfortable in my hands and the buttons are responsive. The haptic feedback and adaptive triggers enhance the gaming experience, providing a more immersive feel to the gameplay. The Starlight Blue color is vibrant and adds a stylish touch to the controller. I appreciate the build quality of the controller, it feels sturdy and durable. One thing to note is that the battery life could be longer, as I find myself needing to recharge the controller more frequently than I expected. Overall, I would highly recommend the Sony PlayStation 5 DualSense Wireless Controller in Starlight Blue to anyone looking for a high-quality gaming controller with innovative features. It's a game-changer for the PlayStation 5 experience.
