      +Rich of Cucumber Eater USA Why are people so eager to cry down something? How does it suck? To say that sucks would be stupid, to say that it could be improved would be more accurate. If that's the case then everything that can be improved would suck. If you're going to compare it to something else then you can say it sucks COMPARED to the XBox One Controller. Something "Sucks" if it is useless and/or undesirable.
      For example: You suck.

      +Kris Reynolds Same. I have a whole stock of grips and silicone partial covers for the DS4 as well. 2yrs in, still brand new :). Battery playtime isn't that much of an issue either because I just plug in my portable battery.

    • @napalmhardcore
      @napalmhardcore 7 років тому

      Not sure what the selection is like where you live but there seem to be very few options for grips from Amazon UK as the vast majority of the ones that come up are the same thing, just re-branded.
      I've tried the ones that come with one set of knobbled convex grips and a set of concave grips (available under various different brand names) and they feel like crap. The knobbles reduce the contact area on the surface of your thumb and actually reduces grip because of this and the fact that they are made of a hardish rubber. The concave sticks just feel clumsy.
      I've also tried the concace ones with a ring of raised dots that come in packs with 100s of different colours available and they feel clumsy and ill fitting.
      I've tried a set of replacement concave sticks from Zedlabz that aren't too bad, but the concave portion isn't quite as large as I'd like. I'd like it if they did a convex version so I could try it and see how I like them.
      As I've been using different grips etc, my problem with the stock sticks hasn't been them wearing out, it's that they are ill conceived. If going for a hybrid design, the convex portion needs to raise above the lip so you can roll your thumb on it and have the lip there to prevent your thumb slipping off the edge of the stick. Sony instead decided to make the lip as tall as the convex portion so you can't roll your thumb on the convex portion but it is also not deep enough to act like a concave stick where your thumb sits inside. It's the worst of both worlds.
      The Kontrol Freek Signature is how a hybrid design should be done, but I don't like the avalable colour/style combinations and don't particularly want the added height. Also, they were already very expensive and I'm pretty sure they've jacked up their prices recently. I tried their Alphas as well, but it is just too wide and looks fugly. I tried the CQC X too, but they aren't as grippy as I'd like. The Signature is my favourite so far. Just which they came in different colours/designs
      My favourite analogue stick so far is the PS1/2/3 with Grip-Its as they're a bit tacky and grip better than the naked stick.

    • @El_Don_Comedia
      @El_Don_Comedia 8 років тому

      They made this video since you can find a lot of people on different forums/sites complaining about the rubber on the sticks tearing off, I can't confirm this myself since I have only used a DS4 once, but I can tell you that my Xbox One controller still have the sticks in a pretty good quality, neither of them has tear off.

    • @JoriDiculous
      @JoriDiculous 8 років тому

      +MikoloPulo I confirm that. My DS4 sticks got worn out disappointingly fast. I replaced them and while i still had it splitt i made it red&black (using parts from one red and one black DS4).
      My xbone controller got good sticks, its been used more then twice as much then my DS4. (Use it exclusively on PC)
      Only thing worn is the tiny "ripples" on the sides, but i just turned the sticks 180 and it all good. You can hardly tell by looking at it that they are used.

    Hello friend, in the "replacement" battery it says 3.65v - 2000mah - 3.7wh - This information is fake, as the maximum discharge wattage per hour is calculated by the maximum storage power in Mah multiplied by voltage, divided per 1000 -> 3.65 x 2000 = 7300, then 7300 / 1000 = 7.3wh - If it is really a 2000mah, it should be rated as a 7.3w battery and not as 3.7w.... Since it is 3.7w, the battery actually is 1000mah instead of 2000mah. in fact, 2000mah batteries are thicker, wider and larger than this PS4 default battery (a physical thing that can't be changed in the battery world when it comes to the lithium polimer or other current compund on the batteries). If the battery is rated as 2000mah, so it should be physically bigger than the original. If you want to take a look, these batteries are like the ones branded by PKCELL. Search for the 3.7v 2000mah batteries on aliexpress then you'll see the size of the 2000mah is so much bigger (in general, double the size of a 1000mah). I'm trying to check how much physical space is available in the battery spot inside the controller, to see which is the maximum size of a battery I can fit in. But I think a 2000mah is fine (10mm x 60mm x 40mm - model 104060).

    As great as the material on the Xbox One sticks seems, I'm not really a fan of the material on them either. Sure the PS4's material rips but unfortunately, because the Xbox One's material is ribbed, the friction of it rubbing against my thumb is unpleasant and has the outer layer of skin on my thumb to start pealing after playing games with it after long periods. Now, if you can do this with Wii U pro controller sticks, I'm all game. I love the material on them. It doesn't rip, it doesn't cause irritation and damage to my thumb, and best of all, just like the other 2 controllers analog material, my thumbs don't slip off of them while gaming.

  • @Cade_The_Squirrel

    You should do a video about the little problem Sony don't want you to know about "pressing L2 goes up" issue with the V2 Dual Shock 4 controllers. This is a very common issue and Sony doesn't even admit it publically. People have to repair their controllers themselves if the warranty has ended and it most likely is when the controller develop this issue.

      No, from what I've heard, the sticks will eventually encounter too much wear on L3 and R3. If you played Black Ops 2, it will put you to that kind of sprint mode that's in the multiplayer. I personally can't vouch for this, I don't own a PS4, I own a Xbox One with the elite controller.

    The rubber on my sticks looks pretty much untouched after 2 years. Not sure what people are doing to wear it down. My complaint lies with the rickety-ness my triggers are developing. Can't really complain about the battery, since it's stock rechargeable. Overall, prefer the DS4 over my XB1 controller, but the XB1s build quality is better.

    Switched my PS4 sticks to Xbox One sticks soon after I bought the console, never looked back.
    I would advise testing the controller before you close it back up as it is very easy to disconnect the ribbon cable from the Touchpad internally. If this does happen carefully pry it apart with a small flat screwdriver and reconnect the ribbon cable. Glue should be strong enough to stick it back together.
