what's cool about this product is that once you have programmed the two button, you can put it on any controller and it will remember the mapping. When one of my DS4 run out of juice I let it charge and I can just attach the back button to my 2nd controller without any hassle.
Forgot too mention that the fps isn’t wireless where the Sony attachment is so if have a a storage thingy connected you might run out of room for usbs depending what you connect into your ps4
Justin Harris if you have larger adult hands it makes the already small ps4 co troller smaller. So if you have larger hands good luck... i gave it to my son who’s 12
Just adding my 2cents here. And yes, I'm a Sony fan, it's all I've gamed on in the last 20yrs. 1. The Strikepack is good, you can program mods and you have extra triggers but it's wired. Not optimal for casual players who sit further away from the console to enjoy the wireless gaming experience 2. The remap kit is cool. It gives you extra triggers that seem built into the controller and they function well. But it's a do-it-yourself kit and for some non-technical people it will be a nightmare to install. 3. The Sony Back Button Attachment is a simple plug in, simple mapping and play piece of hardware. It will take some time to get used to (like the others) but that's it. No wires, no difficult installation, no take apart and put back together. If you want extra triggers for your dualshock 4 for around $30 then the Back Button Attachment is a no-brainer! Wireless, cheap but sturdy, extra triggers, easy install and programming....done deal!
Get the Walmart app and check each close store to you that's how I did it. All GameStops to me were sold out and when I asked when they would have more they said in a week or 2 because Sony was doing a test run.
Great idea, I just wish it had 4 paddles instead of two. I got my elite 2 specifically for style Switching in DMC, and having 4 paddles to replace a section of the controller so you are more comfortable is critical. This just doesnt do enough for me.
thanks for this video dude here in germany it doesn’t come out till late february so you really helped me definitely leaving an like and an subscription
I have a strike pack I DONT USE MODS JUST COULDN’T AFFORD A SCUFF. The strike pack disconnects from time to time for no apparent reason and in a COD fight that is death. I just need a right paddle to jump or slide I think I’m getting it!
@Christopher Simon well it doesnt cost a whole lot therefore im assuming it didnt take much to. Produce. . they use little weak double sided sticky tape to hold them in place.. With lots of usage the spd gets a bit heated causing the strip to be the 1st to go out , therefore causing the magnets to get too close to the metals , im sure it short circuits when ot makes contact or something like that... When i reglued them it worked good as new.
Does it work to set the analog buttons like r3 so tired of hitting melee in apex in a gun fight by clicking the damn analog stick really hope you reply this is the third video I've asked this lol and want to go get one but really only need it for that

I have the extreme rate diy controller. And bro I would choose extreme rate over this. Its takes some getting used too. But once you get the hang of it. It starts to take off. Buttons are accurate too. But for anyone who doesn't want to take the chance by messing up there controller this is a good option am definitely not knocking.
Keep yo receipt! You may like it, but I knew it wasn't going to work out from the moment I picked it up. Made pressing L1 and R1 feel more awkward than it already does. I play with a PowerA Spectra Enhanced Illuminated controller on Xbox and that feels WAY better.
Eh i always accidentally press jump in apex with the left stick while panicking so this will be no different its just a process I'll make it through as long as i take time on it

Its cheaper and scuff controllers breaks easily so yeah. If you got the money go for it? Or wait for the PS5 because its not that far away till it comes out.

No. Once the attachment inserts into the port correctly..it should turn on .the only reason for it not turning on is when u don't connect it properly..
My Hands Are Too Big For The Ps4 Back Button Attachment :/ And Because Of This I Keep Accidently Pressing Them While Shooting And Strafing... So For Cod Pros Or Overwatch Tryhards I Would Not Recommend :( Rip 30 Dollars For People Who Think Its Because I Am Not Used To Back Buttons, This Is Not True. I Have Used Scuf And Aimcontrollers, But These Companies Have More Solid Paddles, And Are Placed Further Back.

"It's not easy to install"..............literally just lines the port up with the jack and pushes with a little force! LMAO....painfully! LMAO
Better then extremerate and risking a whole controller.

so you really helped me definitely leaving an like and an subscription
The learning curve is indeed very steep. I'm constantly getting twisted up during heated moments. It's getting more comfortable though.
Yep I know how u feel homie
I like that it doesn't need to be wired to the console like the strike pack and the button would fall off at times the strike aswell
Did you have a problem adjusting from the strikepack to the new ps4 product? I already have a strikepack but I'm worried I wont like the ps4 one
@@KingBetoXI haven't tried it yet but i believe it will be about the same adjustment needed for the strike pack
Fps gamers will love it
Agreed. Very noticeable performance increase
How so, I play battlefield and wana buy this but don’t think it would make much a difference

I have the strikepack and it took me 2-3 weeks to get used to it. Hope that helps
@Nonya Biznes I took the shit off today and dropped a 60 kill TDM 1st game lol
Yeah most people who have never played with paddles tend to squeeze their controller without ever noticing
Keep paddling
It was totally awesome on Spiderman on my PS4

Cristian Murs I did had it off and it’s not my controller I did it on a brand new controller I bought that I have never used ...
@endlessGalaxy maybe you need to sync the new controller to the PS4 first then turn the controller off then attach the back button?
