Having replaceable thumb sticks has given me a peace of mind. I’ve bought similar pro controllers (two to be exact) and have had drift. This ensures better longevity.

Completely agree - since stick drift *will* happen at some point with these kinds of sticks, the occasional $20 is MUCH better than having a sucky $170+ controller that you cannot replace sticks on. AFAIK, only Evil custom controllers have replaceable stick modules.

@thraxberserker9960 8 месяцев назад

$15 replacement plan and get a whole new controller every time your sticks drift rather than paying $20 for each stick every time it drifts

@mmtgangsta91 9 месяцев назад

Best purchase I’ve made this year honestly. It feels great, the case is great for all the reasons you mentioned. And the replacement stick configuration when the time comes is just a steal. Customizing the dead zone of the sticks and responsiveness of the triggers with its adjusting how far it goes is killer as well. Always feels like I have an absurd advantage in gun fights in COD.. makes me look like I’ve got aim bot and see through walls for how fast I react to enemy’s turning corners

I brought it a week after release and for 1st edition there is nothing wrong with it it's 100% worth buying and the main reasons for buying it is customizable buttons to fit ur play style. Make 2 button motions 1 button. Faster triggers for yall shooters and lastly stick drift becomes a thing of the past. You can't beat it when the only thing u have to replace is the stick not the controller. P.s that battery issue ppl complaining about connecting it to a wire is a personal thing.

@RobK-rl6sn 9 месяцев назад

The controller is really nice and all but I just can't bring myself to spend that much on a controller. I can buy three controllers for the price of one of these. The biggest aspect of it for me personally is being able to change you sticks. Because unfortunately stick drift is a problem with these controllers although I've had my two original since day one release and one has very bad stick drift and is unplayable. The second is starting to go that way. I have broke out my God of War limited edition controller and am considering between two more controllers or an elite. I like to have two so I can throw the one on the charger and always have a Charged wireless controller and for multiplayer when I need it. But obviously I'm not going to purchase two Edge controllers. I don't know I'm torn between them. Especially because I don't do first person games so all of the advantages people get from adjusting the controller I'll never use. I'm not a competitive gamer. So trying to talk myself into spending over $200 on a controller is tough when I can buy several for the same price

@MOHED_ 9 месяцев назад

@@RobK-rl6sn I’m also not a competitive player and mostly play single player games but for me it’s an investment till they come up with a solution for stick drift, plus the quality of the controller is good and the extra buttons are helpful and it’s very easy to map them.

Hey I’ve got some really great news to share with you, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on a cross and resurrected on the third day so you may all have eternal life. If you believe and repent of your sins and put your faith and trust in Him as you would a parachute jumping off a plane at 25000 feet up in the air, He will give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift and I promise you, He will change your life forever as He did mine. He is the ONLY way to heaven and He loves you all. Please think deeply about this with urgency because this is your eternal life and soul, you don’t know when you could die, meaning you could die at any moment, so please consider this with all your heart. If anyone tells you that Jesus isn’t the only way, they are lying to you and they don’t care about your future.

I previously used an Astro C40 on my PS4. Bought it soon after release, but have had to replace one stick every 4-6 months, with the other about 2 months later. I *JUST* replaced my DS Edge LEFT stick for the first time today - just over 7 months after release (got on Day 1 due to pre-order). Well worth my money, & my hands thank me for keeping the ergonomic feel of the Astro C40.

Also if you put the back paddles in on the opposite side then they sit more like a scuf controller, straight down. I found if I flinched I would accidentally press them the other way round. 😉 controller is awesome and although expensive it's better than repairing (ie replacing) scufs if a stick module breaks.

@ErosXCaos 10 месяцев назад

Having back buttons is essential for me. Pressing L3 to sprint hurts after awhile. And mapping another function to it won’t work. When I’m in the heat of battle, I will involuntarily squeeze the controller hard and press L3 accidentally. Depending on what’s mapped to L3, it could really mess me up. I need L3 to be something that won’t do that. Sprint works great, because accidentally pressing it does next to nothing to mess with me. I’m old, and have been gaming for decades. The back buttons have dramatically reduced the strain. If Sony won’t release a back button attachment, then they’ve got me. I’m shelling out the money. (Edit: I do have the DualSense Edge. It’s incredibly comfortable. And the higher stick caps has made a huge difference in that)

@AM-uk7jv 11 месяцев назад

I bit the bullet and bought the DSE after my new Cosmic Red DS started drifting after only a few months of gaming. I probably should have just bought the DSE from the get-go. The poor man pays twice. I'll leave my DSE wired probably most of the time, and when the inevitable drift happens, I'll just replace the analog stick. The back buttons and other features are a huge plus. A lot of games nowadays are running out of buttons to use, so having some back buttons will help tremendously.

I’ve had a PS5 for like six months now and already been through three controllers. I don’t throw them or anything. I got the Edge cus I was sick of replacing controllers just for them to start drifting a month later, tried cleaning them all and everything. Edge seems a lot better, no drift yet and there’s less holes and such for dust to get into. Also now I can just replace the left thumb stick when it starts drifting.

$200 is a bit crazy to me (almost half the cost of the entire system). I get they added the replaceable joysticks which would cost them in future controller sales, but they're still selling the replacement sticks for $20. The replaceable joysticks are nice, but $20? Those should be $5-$10. Just having to replace one of those at $20 is 1/3 of the cost of a regular controller. I think Sony is price gauging their customers a bit. I think this controller should be about $120-$130, not $200.

@ldnliving1541 9 месяцев назад

@VAwitch 9 месяцев назад

It's not just the replaceable sticks though - it's also the programmable buttons & back-buttons. Look at any of the programmable controllers w/ back-buttons/paddles, and they're all in the $170+ range. Most have limited perm-set options for the back buttons, or charge extra for re-programmable. I know players who go through a DualSense every 4-6months - and ONLY replace b/c of stick drifts. At $70/each... you've hit the same cost as the Edge in less than 2 years. Before I got my PS5 in Winter 2021, I had been using my Astro C40 on PS4 for 2 years; near daily, w/ weekend 8-12+hr gaming sessions. I still used my AstroC40 when playing on PS4 while son played on the PS5. Other than replacing one of the sticks every 5-6mths, it was still going strong until about a month or so ago, when the X started sticking. Mar 2019 - July 2023... for $200 + sticks... not a bad ROI at $340ish. I HAD been replacing the entire controller every 6-7 months... at $50-60 each. 8 controllers @ $50 each vs 1 controller + 7 sticks... $400 vs $340, plus the lower strain on my hands as I could program JUMP to a back button. Nope, it's worth it. I have clan mates & gaming buddies that went the SCUF route & for $170+, those last maybe a bit over a year, depending on how often you play. And near always - Stick Drift is the culprit.

Ya but they have to make money somehow and yes Sony is a multi millionaire dollar company but that still doesn’t mean they can’t not make money and they would lose money over a longer period of time if they used that type of stick and the replacements are only $19 so that’s not a lot it money anyway

@BenkaiDebussy 9 месяцев назад

This doesn't seem to mention the biggest issue - the grip pads becoming discolored and (worse) coming detached. After less than a month, my pads started turning yellow, despite me being downright fastidious with the thing (washing hands before - and during - every use, and storing in its case at all other times). After around 1.5-2 months there's a small bubble below one of the pads, which seems to bode poorly for the long-term. Lots of people have had this exact issue, so it seems to be a defect in the design. My best guess about why it doesn't happen with some people is that it might be related to either environmental humidity or the composition of your sweat (I don't really sweat much, though). It's a huge shame, because the controller is perfect otherwise (aside from the battery, but that doesn't bother me much). They just fucked up badly with the grips.

@ShooterMcMobbin 9 месяцев назад

@MikeS-um1nm 9 месяцев назад

Pro For Life. Just bought this and it's pretty nice. 200 bucks might be expensive, but it's still a hundred bucks LESS expensive than all of my scuff* controllers and considerably less than an evil* controller. I was happy with those controllers but almost no one sees all my "pretty", colorful, custom shells and thumb sticks except me. They've all lasted well and I still use them on PS-4, but I think this one from Sony is the way to go, for me, from now on. I think the best feature is being able to replace the thumb stick mechanism for 20 bucks, if you develop "stick drift". (scuff and evil are trademarks and both begin with lower case)

@MrSupersonic2012 11 месяцев назад

The DSE is honestly an amazing controller, Sony really outdid themselves with this thing. I've always preferred Playstation controllers over Xbox. But there are some major issues that keep me from buying this. The battery life is pretty abysmal from what I've heard and seen. Having to always be wired or constantly recharging after every gaming session is pretty cringe. And then the price is just too much right now. $200 for a controller is highway robbery regardless of all the bells and whistles. Maybe if theres a sale in the future i might pick one up. But for now I'll contend with my stock Dualsense.

@silverfox74 10 месяцев назад

I received my Edge on the official launch day (26 Jan '23) having preordered it in Nov last year. The battery lasts about 7-7.5 hours on a full charge with max settings (haptic, triggers, light strength). I have not had a single issue with stick drift and still happily use the original pair. The controller is very comfortable in the hand thanks to the rubberised grip, even after several hours of continuous use. The ability to remap the action buttons and the addition of back levers have helped me in general gameplay. Switching out the sticks to different sizes and designs is great too and makes the controller tailored to each game and your own style of play. So after nearly six months of almost daily use I recommend the Edge. The negatives are the battery - having to hook up the cable on long sessions or daily charging and the controller does get quite dirty so needs regular cleaning. But it feels substantial in the hand and a clear upgrade to the standard dualsense - whether the price tag is worth it for you is your decision but I can't see my user experience changing over another six months and if the sticks break in that time then I can replace them in 30 seconds.
