    The color on this controller really stands out being a mix of blue and purple. Hope they can release more color ways in this same style.

    Desperately needs a longer battery life

    It's a great control pad for gaming. It's better than the previous generation, the DS4, in that it fits the palm of your hands better. This purchase in particular featured the Midnight Black controller and it looks really good. It's color scheme and overall design is probably Sony's finest when it comes to their entire history of controller accessories. However, as per the name of this 2 star rating, it really needs a longer battery life. A full, 100% charge on standard vibration settings only gives you about 3 or less hours of game time. It is reasonable to claim that 3 hours of gaming is more than enough for a dedicated playthrough but this is not including the fact that battery life will be shortened given enough time. This is not acceptable. IMO, the battery should have been at 70%-100% more of its given capacity. This is to ensure a fully uninterrupted gameplay session without the need to recharge the controller once per day or more.

    Got a new controller because my other controllers have stick drift. Went in and Best Buy always has a variety to choose from. Loved this Blue controller and works perfectly. Not only did I get a good looking controller but I got it with a discount!

    The circle button is a little bit sticky, not great for when you're pressing it repeatedly. I hope it unsticks over time with wear. But the controller is great otherwise and luckily I don't notice too often.
