    I have had my controller for 8 months, and I am already experiencing stick drift! This is just unacceptable for an $80 controller!

    The controller trigger doesn’t work for left and right. Called song to get a replacement and they said I have to pay for shipping and they’re not liable for anything that happens further to an already defective controller.

    This controller has a issue, you let the thumb stick go and the person keeps moving for about 10 seconds. Second one I have that has this problem.

    I purchased an open box to save $10. Dog gone it the used controller was broken. That’s why the person who had it before me returned it. Best Buy “employees “ didn’t even check the merchandise they were trying to resell. Dropped the ball on that one. Luckily I’m a decent guy. Or else you would’ve lost a customer.

    I bought this product for my significant other and he informed me that it is already not working and had to buy a replacement. He was having issues with it after the first month and it seemed to not be in the right condition. Not sure if I received a faulty product.

    These controllers would be so much better if Sony didn’t use the cheapest thumb sticks they could. Good luck not drifting after a few uses.

    This is my second ps5 controller purchase aside from the third which came with the ps5 when I bought it. They all become defective within a month and then I can’t return them because of the 15 day return policy.Ridiculous.
