@@nekaneka-lo2js wow your IQ is off the charts...re-read what you just wrote. It's exactly BECAUSE of the reliability issues of the XBOX controller that we should be skeptical of this overpriced piece of plastic.
The controller wouldn't need replaceable stick modules if it just had hall effect sticks and the software customization could have been done with the standard dualsense.
100% this! There is no excuse to not have the system wide deadzone adjustment available for the regular controllers. Replaceable sticks is a positive but considering the price of the Edge (and the sticks themselves) you'd have to wear out something like 4 stick modules before you'd actually start saving money, and by that time other parts of the controller would probably start giving you problems. I'm keeping my hopes up for third party hall effect based sticks for this controller.
One improvement I've noticed that the Edge has over the Dualsense is that the area where you rest your pinky has been rounded compared to being more angular/pointy on the original controller. I've seen a few people complain about that on the Dualsense because it would jab into your fingers causing fatigue.
The chance of the cable falling out is pretty low with modern usb cables but it’s a nice touch. Improving the battery should’ve been more of a priority
The only thing I'm jealous from this controller over my Elite 2, is the replaceable joysticks. Should be on all model of controller, no matter what the system!
Adding this function basically means you have to re-design the entire controller. Actually impressive Sony maintains the size and reduces the weight of the controller besides adding this feature.
@@gabrielsun3834 you just said it. If Sony was able to do it, with the same size controller, why the others can't? It would just be excuses from them, to make more money.
My biggest fear is with the changeable analog sticks. The astro c40’s had the same feature and those were even more prone to stick drift and needed to be changed more often in my experience. Hope this isn’t the same
It for sure will be the case. Companies have no incentive to fix drift when the majority of people accept it at this point as a "it will happen eventually". Now that it's established, it's time for them to move to the next phase of disposable/replaceable components the user has to replace
They didn't forget, they made the battery smaller to make room for more tech. It's a pro controller. Pros play wired for the lowest possible latency, so it's fine for the intended use.
Been waiting for mine to ship. Can’t wait to finally get a Sony Pro controller. Finally a quality one and not a Scuf or Astro. It is pricey but 100% worth it given what all you get with it and the quality.
I was working at EB Games…gamer for life…I left gaming maybe 15 years ago…now getting back into it with PS5 and VR2 this week. My mind is about to be BLOWN with this tech
You're likely going to be disappointed. Not many great games anymore. I bought a PS4 just for the new Hitman Trilogy because I was such a huge Hitman fan that I dished out hundreds of dollars just to play it. Besides still really enjoying that even after 4 or 5 years now, every game I buy I just can't seem to get into and finish them. And these are notorious games according to gamers. I've beaten maybe 10 percent of Metro Exodus, haven't picked it back up since. I beat RDR2's story by 52% according to the game, and I'm now completely bored with it. Such a boring game I don't know why people like a game where you spend more than half the time watching cut scenes and riding a horse from point A to B over and over. One mission you're literally walking in chains as a prisoner, like give me a BREAK! Rockstar, you should make a damn cowboy movie, it's obvious RDR2 should have just been a TV show because the game is super mediocre. You'd have more fun playing Max Payne 3. The remakes of some classics are really disappointing, like Resident Evil 4 remake and the Mafia Remake. Maybe I just grew out of gaming, but then again like I said I play Hitman pretty much every day if I can so maybe the games just suck.
@ yeah they’re needs to be real investment. Remember when Zuckerberg bought that VR headset off that guy for 2 billion? He could have bought that for ONE billion and spend a BILLION DOLLARS on setting up new game studios…that’s like 30x AAA titles that don’t have to make ANY profit….but would have. I think if he has done that, the whole landscape today would be different.
This could actually be really cool with games like Skyrim. You could create a new profile that has no deadzone and just walk around instead of having to slightly edge the analog stick upwards just to walk Unlike PC, console has no toggle walk button in games and thumbs get tired needing to be in an awkward position.
One thing I have to say is that people complain about the battery life of the controllers but the thing is what I have learned is that you have to lower down the light of your controller so then it uses up less battery. Trust me it works. I have done it on PS4 and on PS five now and my controller can be used up to to multiple hours up to more than 10 hours in one full battery life and of course I always top off my battery when I get off the game.
I'm so glad this is reviewing well. Pro controllers have a very hit or miss nature and I'm glad to see Sony took it seriously, as they do with most things.
Swapping out the sticks when they inevitably get stick drift is a HUGE selling point. I’ve already gone thru 2 regular controllers so $199 isn’t that bad
my controller gets mad stickdrift after 3-5 months so thats 70 dollars everytime why wouldnt he get one for 200 dollars and just replace joysticks for way cheaper everytime? @@NoOneHere2020

A 9.0? I guess since the Elite has four back paddles, swappable stick lengths, adjustable stick tension, a longer lasting battery, and costs far less, it must be a 10.
But also can get stick drift and can't be fixed. Literally the one thing everybody wants. Also you do know the elite has like half the tech in it then this ps??

If you are a PC gamer and don't own a PS5, don't bother getting this. You cannot access any of the features, including remapping. There is no system or software in place to changing anything.
@@calvinm1866 Bought a scuff a couple of years ago and it's still goin strong, but theres a ton of cheaper 3;rd party controllers with 4 back buttons... 2 is a fail imo
Looks cool, and the replacement sticks gives peace of mind. But what about the L2/R2 triggers, that rubber membrane is the single thing thats not stood the test of time on all my DS4 controllers, haven't had my PS5 long enough yet to see if its different but wouldn't this mean a tear apart?
While this controller is definitely packed with features, it is simply not worth the price considering it is still prone to drifting. In Canada, this thing costs 270$. It just doesn't make any sense when you could buy 3 regular controllers at that price.
Honestly the people that would buy this controller would most likely have a setup where they can play with it plugged in anyway so the battery complaint is minor really
All for just $200 and only $20 extra every-time you have to change your sticks instead of providing magnetic sticks and for worst battery life than any other wireless controller, that being said you may as well call it a wired controller as if it’s 2002 with that horrendous battery life, once you’re wired up you can have your friend or family member trip over the wire and either pull the whole $500 system to the ground or your $200 and counting controller to the ground with the amazing wire locking mechanism that makes it the zero sense edge controller. No thank you, they can shove it.
*would’ve just accepted a ps5 back button attachment for around £30. Don’t know why sony released that for the DualShock 4 near the end of the ps4 life cycle….. weird*
Assuming there will be some variance to the battery life with haptics on vs off etc. but it does seem disappointing only having 5ish hours for a 200$ product.
It also comes with a cable.. standard building codes should dictate a plug nearby anywhere you decide to play. This shouldn't be an issue. You aren't taking it on a cross-country flight.
The stick modules are 20 dollars a piece plus 5 dollars shopping. To replace both sticks is gonna be $45. That's insane sony. The components seem quality and reinforced, and you're probably recouping the cost of rnd on the joysticks, but it's still way too expensive. Hope they drop the prices after they recoup the cost for the new tech
Okay let's say you got a regular ps5 controller, you end up with stick drift in one analog only, which happens fast with a regular duel sense, now you gotta spend $70 for a whole new controller, Now you have a duel sense edge you get stuck drift in one analog well now just spend $25 dollars and fixed you just saved $50
It comes with a 1 year warranty. The battery is a shame but replacing battery won’t be hard. I’ve done on original dual sense. Also this is still way cheaper than other pro controllers I’ve bought.
@@mmhoss battle beaver was one and it didn’t have half the features. All of them cost more than this. Better question is what pro controllers are cheaper?
@@chemeister hes actually correct. The world is a stage and nearly everything you are told is a lie. If you follow like a robot without questioning anything maybe you're the one that needs serious help .
Stick modules have been out of stock for 5 months and Sony has said nothing they may have discontinued them and don’t wanna say anything because then people won’t buy the controller
Just wonder if its durable is really better than xbox elite series 2 controller. If it actually is, I'll consider buying ps5 console and this controller to play fps games only
Call me crazy but Nintendo Switch Pro Controller is the best controller out there because it has a long battery life, feels comfortable, and works great BUT most importantly you can whale on the thing and not have to worry about breaking a $200 controller
It’s disappointing that Sony hasn’t figured out battery life like Xbox. The fact that the Edge has a worse battery life than the regular controller makes this hard to justify the purchase.
Module thumb sticks should have been a thing since forever ago will certainly help things and remove the need for people to open their controller up to play surgeon (if you are the type that does that.) Shame it's such a expensive package to achieve that one thing.
Worth it of course just sayin, back buttons too are a major yes as every last one of my spare PS4 controllers are 3rd party with back buttons to fight drifting.
Or how about completely get rid of the problem and use hall effect sticks. It uses magnetic to track movement instead of physical hence drifting. Its been a thing since the Sega dream cast
A controller that cost half the price of the console is crazy to me
Exactly like 120 cool but 200 is wild smh
But if u don’t play comp u don’t need it anyways playing public games why u want one anyway

Can you create these different profiles and button remapping on pc for pc gamers?
Only advantage it has over xbox elite is the swappable thumbsticks. Will consider getting it when they improve battery life
doubt they will lmao
It's a controller made for pros and pros use a wired connection
You mean thumb stick mechanism the elite has removable thumb stick
Sure it’s £200 but the amount of stick drift and destruction that my controller has been through will now be the player 2 controller
The flap on the case was the selling point for me. Such a glorious flap.
Flaptastic
You can swap the thumbsticks but not batteries ???????
It comes with a 1 year warranty. The battery is a shame but replacing battery won’t be hard. I’ve done on original dual sense. Also this is still way cheaper than other pro controllers I’ve bought.
How much do the batteries cost
@@iLLGetAlongWithYou around $15
what pro controller have you bought that's way more than $200
@@mmhoss battle beaver was one and it didn’t have half the features. All of them cost more than this. Better question is what pro controllers are cheaper?
@@yurpcrusher123good point because they’re all like 200 plus lol
can you include a review/experience when using it on a PC? will the function buttons work, etc.
Lmao if you have a pc you should be using an elite v2
@@ms3862 why?

@@theyoungjawn It doesn't have gyro or haptics. Also Steam has native support for Dualsense

You think Tupac is alive? 🤣 Get some help.
@@chemeister hes actually correct. The world is a stage and nearly everything you are told is a lie. If you follow like a robot without questioning anything maybe you're the one that needs serious help .
Stick modules have been out of stock for 5 months and Sony has said nothing they may have discontinued them and don’t wanna say anything because then people won’t buy the controller
Is the dpad clicky? The dual sense dpad is pretty bad for fighting games
Nope, it’s the same as every other PlayStation controller: mushy. And for some reason, there’s a lot of people that like the mush. 😳
Why is there only 2 back buttons? 😢
The Xbox elite is the G.O.A.T - I mean you can even make custom ones for not that expensive and they build and ship quickly
But you have to get an xbox 🥸
Not hall effect in the thumbstick for that price is a joke.
Just wonder if its durable is really better than xbox elite series 2 controller. If it actually is, I'll consider buying ps5 console and this controller to play fps games only
That ending was definitely worth the wait
That price though...
@Demolition Ackowledge my cok
Has anyone who preorder the new controller Receive a shipping email yet? We are suppose to get it tomorrow right?
Call me crazy but Nintendo Switch Pro Controller is the best controller out there because it has a long battery life, feels comfortable, and works great BUT most importantly you can whale on the thing and not have to worry about breaking a $200 controller
We needed more back paddles
2 is fine
@@KapinKrunch it is not fine with such price to have only 2 paddles.
@Aaron Mcroodle if you play games that require movement while aiming, then it isn't. Doom Eternal on a series 2 vs. this will be night and day.
The switch pro controller battery ist the best!
It’s disappointing that Sony hasn’t figured out battery life like Xbox. The fact that the Edge has a worse battery life than the regular controller makes this hard to justify the purchase.
Standard xbox controllers still require batteries or battery packs though
tbf xbox controllers has 0 features
@@lukecarr1029 battery packs are much better than forcing to plug in a cord though.
@@lukecarr1029 watch an elite video, it’s the only one with a built in rechargeable battery.
What kills me is the additional cost for more accessories and only 2 paddles.
Ordered mine, it’s in route for delivery I’ll give u guys a honest review 🤝🏾
how is it?
Mf lied 💀
Module thumb sticks should have been a thing since forever ago will certainly help things and remove the need for people to open their controller up to play surgeon (if you are the type that does that.)
Shame it's such a expensive package to achieve that one thing.
Worth it of course just sayin, back buttons too are a major yes as every last one of my spare PS4 controllers are 3rd party with back buttons to fight drifting.
Or how about completely get rid of the problem and use hall effect sticks. It uses magnetic to track movement instead of physical hence drifting. Its been a thing since the Sega dream cast
One of the best controllers EVER!
FOR EVERYONE CRYING ABOUT BATTERY LIFE PLEASE TAKE A BREAK GO OUTSIDE SHOWER EAT SOME REAL FOOD IT ONLY TAKES AN HOUR MAX IM ASSUMING TO RECHARGE
Hah! You assume
I agree 👍🏽
So you can’t swap the battery?.
The sticks are not the only part that wears out. If you can’t swap the battery then it is way too expensive
