Explain it peter, what's so special about this controller??
I love the GC controller, it just feels...good, but I have to agree here. I own a DualSense Edge and it is far and away the best controller I have ever used. Pricey, but it just feels high-quality in every aspect. The added back-paddles are a godsend, the individual components can be easily replaced

Überteuert Controller lohnen sich nicht
Der DualSense von Sony oder sogar der DS4 sind ansich der beste Allroudn controller. Für PC Spiele nutze ich häufig noch den XB360. Neue Sticks einlöten ist kein Hexenwerk.

Sony exec Lin Tao says killing discs won't make the PlayStation 6 too much like a PC: "Going forward, we can coexist peacefully with PC games" | Despite pushback, Sony isn't changing its mind about dropping physical discs in 2028.

Broke something in my ps5 controller
The part that's damaged is the upper microphone (the yellow ribbon is an integrated flexible printed circuit). This isn't usually an important part because the controller can still use the lower microphone (the part that's sitting on top of the headset port in the picture). Sony even removed one of

Is DualSense Edge worth it?
It’s expensive, but I eventually went for it since you can get a replacement stick for £20, I had so many drift issues with previous PS5 controllers I was fed up and I wish I got one earlier. The extra buttons/pedals and inbuilt options for stick height, stick sensitivity etc. and trigger sensitivit

Comando PS5 com drift
Tens que ler os termos da extensão da garantia. Até pode não estar mesmo abrangido. Dica: não voltes a comprar um DualSense novo. Vai à Vinted e procura por DualSense Hall Effect e compra um com essa modificação. Fica-te mais barato e não voltas a ter problemas. Jogo desde os tempos da NES, joguei e

Xbox needs that "next gen" controller
I just want more customization with the controller. I understand stick modules like the Dual Sense Edge would be hard because of the placement of an Xbox controllers sticks, but people tend to at least want some option of a TMR stick along with mouse click face buttons and triggers with a $200 pro c

DualSense randomly drops inputs for a split second. Easy fix or return it?
It could be an easy fix, like disassembling the controller and cleaning off the contacts that sit underneath the button caps. There are the metallic contacts on a flexible film, and the carbon contacts on the underside of a rubber membrane. This iFixit guide describes how to get to them, and you can

My account was permanently suspended
Sony customer service is so fkn bad. I had a launch DualSense with drift issues after 3 weeks I wanted help with. The AI was useless and it took ages to get a human on the phone, who just ran through the same set of solutions that didn’t work. Finally allowed me to send it in for repair/replacement

Daily Questions Megathread (July 23, 2026)
There are a few 3rd party controllers that offer "Hall effect" joysticks. These won't experience drift since they use different mechanics for their sensing of movement (There's no friction to cause debris to cause an issue). Unfortunately PS5 is a bit limited in terms of full controller support with
