[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been very excited for this item! I ordered it knowing it was very expensive but the deals helped me out and made sure I was getting a good deal and with it being a bigger item i was surprised they had it in stock and that it was so fast to be ready after I ordered it

liked the looks but dont like that the headphone jack is malfunctioning after right at 2 months of use i plug them in one side works not other thiught it had to be headset so bought another headset same thing wiggle it and both come on and go out would not recommend if u use headset

smooth as silk brand new controller. replacing my console controller, i like the grade of purple they used for this galactic deep and almost blue shade of purple. it offers a subtle contrast of black and dark purple between the thumbsticks and buttons. its a bluish purple not a pink/redish purple. very happy.

Unlike the previous Playstation models made these controllers for the PS5 seem to last longer, are sturdier, and we've yet to replace any after having a system for 3 years. We just keep buying them because they come out with cool colors and we have a large gaming family.

im glad i got the warranty because it seems playstation control quality since ps3 has plummeted....less than 5 months of gameplay and was already have drift issues as well as by the end the joysticks cycling themselves....for what we are paying for these controls it is embarrassing and borderline unacceptable that a company with such class and attention to detail has eroded to a company that makes things that dont last 6 months let alone the test of time.

Delivery driver literally gave my item to the people at the store front even though my address had my apt%23 on it, however the delivery driver doesn't know that. Great service and efficiency as usual however these delivery debacles need to be handled. Drivers need to take the time to identify the proper location for drop off

These controllers really have gotten pricier from generation to generation and a lot more sophisticated, maybe unnecessarily so. Having to update the controller with the console this gen seems like asking a bit much. But when a console is designed for artistic aesthetics more than practical function, what can you expect. I'm not really sure the controllers are any better made, but with each generation Sony's controllers have a little more heft to them. I know kids seem to love the new tactile triggers. But I just regard the feature as a battery waster and turn it off, like the vibration function. It doesn't seem to add anything of value in either realism or gaming enhancement, unless the game unnecessarily limits vibration as the only clue prompt or something, rather than an audible cue. If only Sony would focus less on gimmicks and more on quality, their controllers might not need replacing as often. Or they need to make a more bare-boned version without all the unnecessary fluff that's all too often inconsistently used by developers anyway, if used at all. That said PS5 controller sticks seem to hold up a little longer than the PS4 did. Or maybe my nephews just aren't as hard on them as they used to be. Our white controller that came with the console started sticking or free-walking a little after 6 months. I found a few tricks to fixing it online, but wanted another backup just in case it gets worse. And Black Friday is the only time to buy a PS5 controller, if you can wait. The top of this blue controller has an almost pearlescent blue finish, which looks much nicer than previous generations or the black and white versions for the PS5. Of course, in a dark room, it doesn't really matter how nice it looks.

What is there to say - there's only one licensed PS5 controller out there that I'm aware of, so why not get the official one. Overall this is really easy to use, high quality and durable - I've had mine for a year and it still works perfectly well. I've had previous controllers where a button gets stuck or stops working after a short while and never had any problems here.

This PS5 controller not only looks better but is sturdier than previous Play Station controllers. The kids have dropped it a few times and no problems so far. The only thing I would add to it would be a better grip. The Xbox controllers have more of it on the handles and it feels better.

not much to say other than it works as intended. my orginal controller that came with my ps5 started messing up less than 6 months after purchase. the stick drift was unbearable to the point the camera wpuld just spin to the left and would go in circles if allowed. i bought this one to have while i sent the other back to be repaired, they ended up sendign a refurbished one. make sure you get a warrant, these will mess up eventually and dont want to have to spend 70$ everytime it does.
