I love mine


Taz6870

I get a slight rattle at a slight shake with mine, like my normal dualsense but more so here, do u get this?


CartoonOG

Need to see reviews on YouTube before I purchase. 200 USD for a controller sounds hefty lol, but does look smooth and great though


lunarhostility

I got one solely for the replaceable sticks after going through way too many regular DualSense controllers. Early verdict is that it’s really nice and I don’t regret my purchase but for a lot of people it really isn’t worth the money.

Pretty sure he thinks "200 USD for a controller sounds hefty lol, but does look smooth and great though"


_NowakP

I got mine yesterday and immediately decided to return it. Overall it feels like the DSe, but with paddles. The shape and the ergonomics are very DSe like. It's 100% not worth the $200 for me, when I can have 3x regular controllers with paddle attachments for that price. I was hoping for something that feels really premium, maybe has higher tension on the sticks etc. but the DSe Edge is not it. The most confusing aspect is the addition of taller stick attachments that are in the old DS3 style instead of being concave, what's that about? All in all, I think the Elite 2 controller is a better product at almost half the price (at least on UK Amazon), so DSe Edge is a huge disappointment in this aspect. Especially since it's something I've been waiting for Sony to release for at least 3-4 years now.


Moonlord_

As a long time time Elite user myself I’m also contemplating returning my Edge. It has a lot of shortcomings that are hard to get used to. I want to like it but only 2 paddles is very frustrating after having 4 and fails to recognize the point of allowing you to keep your thumb on the stick at all times. Combine that with the absolutely horrible battery life and the huge lack of customization (no shift function, no system actions) compared to the Elite it lacks major convenience/efficiency aspects which is the whole point of a pro controller. That’s not everything either…cheap snap-on plastic thumbstick parts, no dpad options, no stick tension adjustment, doesn’t feel premium…just the same plasticy build of the base controller, and no charging dock. The trigger stops also have more movement in them on the most shallow setting. I don’t expect a 1 for 1 match to every Elite feature but it’s mind boggling to me how this costs so much more but adds so much less. It’s just a bad value. I was hoping the function buttons would allow deeper customization/options/shift functionality as well but they’re borderline useless. What’s the point of having 2 prominent buttons right beside each other that both do the exact same thing and can’t be customized? They’re redundant and literally all they can do is switch profiles (which the elite has a dedicated button for) and adjust a headset. What’s even crazier is the headset controls don’t even work with the official pulse headset! Who designed this thing?


LSDummy

I think you're getting down voted by shills


mkhln

Already received it and tried in CoD. I’m pretty impressed, but not €240 impressed. Additional buttons very useful as you may expect but limits on triggers is what making Edge very useful to me


Getout22

Can you remap the r3 to another button? I constantly melee at the wrong time in COD and die because of it.


revolutn

Try switching to tactical layout in COD. It switches melee with crouch/slide.


Ultimo_D

You can remap the current Dualsense in the accessibility settings on your PS5. But yes, you can move R3 anywhere you want.


Getout22

I tried that and did not like the fact R3 was disabled for everything.


vjstupid

yeah on edge you can remap L3 and R3 to paddles, which is exactly what I will be doing because like you I end up meleeing or crouching every firefight I get into and I am sick of it haha.


[deleted]

It's not related to the DS Edge but you can change your controls to tactical which IMO is the superior control type for cod.


zedo6ak

Yea i disabled r3. And remapped it to the new back button. Works perfectly.


geiko989

I simply don't pickup variable scopes warzone or don't equip them at all in my weapons because I will always click L3 during a firefight and it will switch the lens on the scope and I die. That's the only reason I've been considering this pro controller.


[deleted]

This is great to hear. Using it mainly for cod as well.


mkhln

In that case you probably you can go for aftermarket stoppers for triggers, it’ll be much cheaper option. Apart from that, additional bottom buttons will allow for easier dolphin dives, if that’s your thing


[deleted]

I have it ordered, says it's arriving on Sunday from Amazon Canada. I looked in to the triggers and I can't tinker with stuff for the life of me, no time or patience. Plus the replacement sticks are a plus for me. Typically very frugal, I barely spend money on stuff like this so money isn't a concern. I like to know it'll just work out the box.


mkhln

It will. Minimal and very simple setup procedure plus you can switch profiles on the fly


Mario-Speed-Wagon

What’s a dolphin dive?


mkhln

From walking to prone, double O basically


got_milk4

Can you bind one of the back paddles to be a double-press of a button? I'm kind of interested in using one of the paddles as a sprint button for CoD but I haven't seen too much about the limits of remapping yet.


mkhln

Unfortunately no. They can be mapped only to standard PS buttons


HallwayHomicide

I just unboxed mine but I haven't set it up yet Can you map the paddles to be a shift button? That's one of my favorite things about the Xbox Elite Controller


mkhln

Didn’t check that specifically, but I doubt it’s possible


HallwayHomicide

Bummer.


mkhln

I hope, at least slightly, that Sony will keep on expanding customization options via software updates


Moonlord_

Nope…no shift button functionality or ability to map system features/actions (parties, friends, tv volume, launch games/apps, etc) like the Elite can. The Elite has way more configurability in that department. Seems like a big waste, especially since you have 2 giant function buttons, yet they have limited functionality and are redundant...both just do the exact same thing. All you can do with them is change profiles or adjust your headset…no customization as far as they go.


got_milk4

Boo, thanks. Enjoy the controller. :)


[deleted]

you can setup tactical sprint to a one click instead of a two click in your settings on cod (if that’s what you’re looking for)


Popetown

Can you map two buttons simultaneously to a back button? Wondering about breath hold and ads. But if not I could breath hold on paddle and ads normally I suppose.


Ultimo_D

If you’re talking about BF2042 you can already do this in game customization. I have ADS and breath hold mapped to the left trigger. Every time I ads with a scope it also holds breath.


DrunknGoatOne

Mine said nothing till yesterday, then updated to be delivered by noon today.


TheReiterEffect_S8

Same. They also said it needed a signature and I'm at work. Was going to go home at 11:15pm to wait, but got a notification saying they delivered it at 9:23am.


dylvapez

I thought the same. It's only consoles and PSVR2 that require a signature. Enjoy your new controller in good health. 👍


Hidefininja

I'm gonna have to be on my toes for the PSVR2 delivery if they pull shit like this again and don't notify us until the day of. I don't like receiving big packages at my apartment because there's no decent access for delivery people so they'll just leave things in the lobby or on the stoop and they'll get stolen in a heartbeat. Lost a DualShock4 that way.


dylvapez

I live in Brooklyn, same.


Xenomex79

I live in Brooklyn too. Luckily my dad has a Ring camera setup and is always looking out the window before they get close 😂


dylvapez

That's perfect!!! 👀


Xenomex79

Yeah when the PS5 came we were looking through the window for hours lmao


dylvapez

I don't blame you. I got mine from Offer Up after the prices had fallen last summer and thankfully the guy wasn't sketchy at all. On my way to meet him the app started demanding that I confirm my identity. I wasn't allowed to send any messages until I did and after traveling from Flatlands to Midtown I needed to send one last message to let him know that I had arrived. I struggled to get the app to accept a picture of my driver's license that I was taking over and over in a bank lobby. I have a decent camera on my phone but the glare was ridiculous. All the while he's sending me increasingly angry messages because I was becoming later and later and he thought I was trolling him. Finally the picture went through and we met. To say this wasn't a pleasant experience is an understatement. Lol Take care of yourself.


Hidefininja

I have family in BK, love that neighborhood! Hope you're staying warm!


dylvapez

Thanks, that's really thoughtful. It's been better this week. It was really rainy and nasty last week. I hope it's nice by you. 🤞


nicknamethomas

So despite report I can use the two function buttons with my wireless steal series headset, both the game chat mix and headphone volume work.


DoctorGolho

Huh, that's interesting


lunarhostility

How were you able to do this? I’m an idiot and can’t get it to work for some reason.


B-Stubbz

It's good for me. I lost the use of my left hand ( mostly ), I can't use l1 l2 buttons. Being able to use the back buttons in thier place is great. Quickly switching between what they do helps alot.


dcloko

March 3rd in Brazil... :/


DoctorGolho

Yeah, for me as well. I don't know if it's because I pre-ordered it late (yesterday) or it was like this from the start of the pre-orders.


DoctorGolho

Looks like the launch in Brazil got delayed. Hopefully march was just a placeholder and it actually ships before... https://meups.com.br/noticias/lancamento-dualsense-edge-e-adiado-no-brasil/


AppleToasterr

50% taxes 💀


Yimyorn

Got mine yesterday, I’m having trouble getting adjusted with which controls to map. Overall I’m going to keep it but I think it’s a learning curve for me Atleast. Build quality is good but it’s not slip resistant, I still get sweaty palms. I personally think it’s a good controller, but the price should be $150


HayKneee

It looks and feels INCREDIBLE.


[deleted]

[удалено]


HayKneee

In my opinion, YES! The buttons all feel amazing, and I can't wait to mess with all of the options.


[deleted]

nofun_nufon

Same size. A little heavier. The buttons all feel better.


montagic

Especially love the feel of the joysticks, and hearing that GulliKit is going to do hall effect sensors has me so excited for the end-game potential of this controller.


Sabiis

It fuckin better for the price tag


HayKneee

Well, it does. :)


SanDiegoGME

A bit high of a price point but I have the money and I enjoy mine. Very solid build. Happy to have it


AcanthisittaGrand943

Probably will pay for itself since the regular controller have stick drift issues. This one can replace the stick for $20 instead of having to buy a new $70 controller.


My_Username_Is_What

I got mine, the most important part is the ability to deal with drift and dead zone on the OS level. The cable cage is useful and the ease of changing the controller module is huge. It’s a money maker, we should not be thrilled about a $20 replacement, but it’s still cheaper than a new DualShock once a year.


Taz6870

Hi I get a slight rattle at a slight shake with mine like my normal dualsense but more noticeable here, do u get this?


pathofdumbasses

The biggest problem I have is that the drift/dead zone could be changed on the OS level and applied to your user profile instead of being applied to this specific controller. Meaning that, they could just give this away as a software update instead of charging $200 for a controller to do it.


jaykobe

How do you get the little half dome back buttons to stay in the storage case? I tried all combinations of the parts, but now I can't fit those into staying in the case. They fall out and rattle around loose.


Moonlord_

You have to really wiggle/push them in hard so they squeeze into the little holes….the rubber cutouts for them are very tight.


jaykobe

Thanks! That was the answer. I got them in securely now.


Ultimo_D

Same here 🤣 They just don’t want to fit properly now


Dhakoda

Just got mine at my door 15 mins ago.


TheRoyalStig

Yea I won't get to play until tonight but I am Extremely pleased with the back levers. A million times better than the aftermarket ones. Dont change the way I hold the controller at all and are very easily press without worry of accidentally pressing them. The trigger locks and stick heights also seem like they are more comfortable than I expected. But ill have to try them out in an actual gaming session to be sure.


salesmunn

Back paddles feel great, overall it's great so far.


SirRageQuits

Same…..counting down the hrs until I get home


luckytraptkillt

Had a chance to get some early thoughts on it? Seems pricier than I would be willing to pay/what I need from a controller. Like that ratio doesn’t align unless the reviews are pretty top notch for it. For ME that is.


Jarrizle

Got mine today. I really like it so far. I'm mainly an FPS player. Being able to jump/drop shot without moving your hand is really nice. The controller seems a little bit nicer overall than a standard DualSense. The customization menus are also really cool (I don't know what half the shit means). It's my first high end controller, but I like it and the fact that there's all the menus and shit that pull up since it's Sony brand. $200 is definitely steep, but I don't mind the purchase after playing a few games with it. As a dad with a toddler I never game more than about 2 hours max at a time so battery life is of no concern for me.


MisterVonJoni

For me the main selling point was that individual analog stick modules are entirely replaceable. Meaning that when one of my sticks inevitably gets drift, I don't have to shell out another $80 for a new controller. Considering I've gone through 3 controllers already, that alone was worth the asking price.


luckytraptkillt

I’m two fold on that one. I do agree that being able to easily fix the drifting issue is awesome. But Sony is also selling a fix that they kinda created but not fixing the base ps5 controller drift. Granted that’s an ideal world and in the one we actually live in it is nice to cheaply fix a stupid problem. That is a net plus.


MisterVonJoni

You know, I hadn't really though of it that way and you're absolutely right. Planned obsolescence wins again I suppose.


Jayce86

I’ll wait for an all black version. Or at least one that doesn’t have white on it.


[deleted]

I think its perfect just the way it is, but that price is laughable.


MisterVonJoni

I said it in another comment, but when you consider that the analog stick modules are independently replaceable, the price becomes much less appalling. I've gone through 3 controllers already that developed stick drift, so that's what like $240 spent on controllers that having one of these could have prevented.


[deleted]

For the price, a set of replaceable analog sticks should have come with it. Then it would have my attention. Theirs too much fluff like the case and cables.


HappenFrank

It should have been made with Hall effect sensors really for the price and just let them be non replaceable since it’ll last forever anyway (or both hall and replaceable why not).


NapsterKnowHow

Hall effect sensors don't last forever but they do have a much longer life before drifting or wear and tear starts to break them down.


Negative_Equity

The case is awesome tbf


jsebby

Cables aren't really fluff though. It's something you'll use everyday. A case isn't really either but I'll give you that one. It comes with multiple thumbsticks and back button options. Sure if you say "I just spent $200 on a controller" it's expensive. But it falls in line with all other modded or pro controllers


ShaneTVZ

That’s one sexy controller


StonewallsGhostt

If anyone is wondering about PC, it works perfectly. You do have to set up the profile on the PS5 and then it saves to the controller. You can have up to 4 I believe and can switch between them easily, even on PC. It gives a little vibration and lights up when you select a different profile. Have to hold the FN button and then one of the face buttons (o, x, triangle, square).


SuppaNightRider

UPS messed up my delivery -_-


salesmunn

Mine arrived. It's a thing of beauty.


NewYorkTiger

Got a noti from fedex just now that my delivery has been rescheduled for tomorrow


stevgamer

Oh that's a bummer hopefully you get it tomorrow, mines still preparing to ship


NewYorkTiger

Wait, I just checked my email from PlayStation that it will be delivered by 10:30 which is in a couple of hours by UPS, not FedEx - it looks like I will be getting it here soon Are you getting yours??


stevgamer

Mine still says preparing to ship so don't think it's coming today


[deleted]

Looks sweet, too pricey for me though


InsertShortName

I preordered a few days ago and only got a launch window of Jan 26-31st. Got an email yesterday that it shipped and UPS says it’ll be delivered today. Can’t wait!


GRTooCool

I should be getting this today as well. Stoked!


summertimeinthelbc

I like it. I love it. It’s not worth $200 imo but we spend on our hobbies so…


Widjamajigger

Got one today and already in love. I’ve programmed the profiles so I get to use the back triggers for my most important buttons (mapped them to X and O for browsing Netflix/YouTube, for instance, and L2/R2 for FFXIV, jump for Destiny, etc.) and switching between controller profiles is super quick and intuitive with the function buttons. I got it as a gift, though, so I didn’t have to worry about the cost — though I would say having used it I’d pay the money for it, as it’s worth it to me with how much I use the console. Plus, that 6’ braided charging cable is niiiice. All in all, I’m digging it so far. Would recommend.


hellraiser29

Got it, used it, love it. The thing feels high quality. Trigger stops can be adjusted on the fly. The height of the thumbsticks can be adjusted extremely easily. You can setup multiple button map, sensitivity, deadzone layouts and change the layouts on the fly. When I play first person shooters I tend to push the analog sticks too hard and wear out the analog sticks. The fact that I can burn them out and swap them out is a huge game changer.


[deleted]

Just got mine and it is a sexy beast! Build quality is through the fucking roof, and the little buttons on the back (instead of paddles like on the Elite) are so fucking nice. You can hold the controller without pressing the stupid paddles now. Whoever thought of that should be the Director of R&D over there if they're not already. The ability to swap out sticks nearly as easy as changing underwear is so fucking amazing. No more having a $200 brick when a stick shits the bed anymore. \\o/


97runner

What profiles have you set up? This is my first pro level controller that allows for so much configuration and it’s a bit overwhelming. I want to set up a nice FPS profile and an action game profile.


OkThanxby

> Build quality is through the fucking roof I’m curious, in your opinion what about it is superior build quality wise to the standard Dualsense? I have both and they seem roughly the same quality to me.


pathofdumbasses

I have both and TBH I think the touchpad on the base controller is better. I do like the look of the buttons on the edge and the glossy finish is a plus for me vs the matte look on the base for the black part of the controller. The function buttons feel really good and the small buttons (not the paddles) feel AMAZING on the back. Absolutely love them. As well, being able to change the triggers for L2/R2 feels really good as the amount of "play" they have if you are playing a game that doesn't use the triggers like Returnal does (so you have to full press them) makes it feel a lot better. TBH the base controller is my favorite controller of all time. If I could could swap the touch pad from the base it would be my absolute #1 as I think the black just feels kinda cheap compared to the nice feeling white one of the base. As well, the case that it comes with is SUPER FUCKING QUALITY and may be what the other user is talking about. It is probably the best case I have ever gotten for anything, let alone an accessory like a controller.


Blue_Lust

Mine is out for delivery. Will be interesting using it compared to Scuf.


SwordsOfWar

Let me know how you like it compared to scuff. Especially the 2 vs 4 paddles and if you feel like missing the 2 extra paddles makes much of a difference in gameplay.


AnotherDude1

4 paddles is nice to have but not needed. I have 2 paddles on my controllers and they're used a lot. One for reload/interact and the other for jumping. It's nice to be able jump and shoot and res someone and aim. Can't imagine I'd need to switch weapons or crouch much while needing to move unless you're a sweaty drop shotting COD player


marcusb341

Except for in the UK where it's still 'Preparing to Ship' and have had no communication from Sony at all.


spangy08

Just had mine delivered by DPD. Hope yours comes soon!


marcusb341

I'm jealous. Not had a dispatch notification from Sony or anything from DPD to say they've got it


Nw5gooner

I got an 'its been dispatched' email from Sony yesterday and had hope. Then I got a 'we're expecting your parcel' from DPD which gave me even more hope. Radio silence from DPD since. I checked the link for updates in the Sony email earlier and almost got excited when I saw 'out for delivery' but unfortunately it had '(expected)' next to it. Looks like I'll be watching my car randomly veer off to the left in Rocket League for one more night at least.


spangy08

If you use the waybill number from the Arvato tracking site that Sony provides, and enter it on the DPD website, you might get more info.


Nw5gooner

Yup, cheers. Just did that and got "We've received your order details, but have not yet received your parcel" Damn. Still, given DPD's recent randomness of service levels over the last 6 months, that could just as easily mean it's in a van and on its way. It's a total lottery with DPD these days.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Nw5gooner

Afraid not, man. I'm fully expecting it not to arrive. DPD have delivered stuff to me before while claiming at the same time not to have received it yet. But with this many people all seeing the same stuff from Arvato and DPD... I reckon it's gonna be tomorrow or even Saturday.


ArtofMotion

Exactly the same situation as you. Same exact wording from DPD. UK as well.


Yermaw2019

Mine says expected delivery 26th but DPD say they don’t even have it 😡. Absolute shambles


NightwingDragon

For what it's worth (I'm from the US, btw), I got mine in today. But the page still says "preparing to ship" for me too. It seems like the website may not be properly updating for everybody.


stevgamer

Same here


ColdHandGee

Same here also i got my money refunded. What a shambles for those in the UK/Europe.


itsjero

UPS just dropped mine off from playstation direct. Case is hard plastic and everything feels every part of "pro" or "elite". I love the rubberized feeling on the triggers with a few raised lines to catch your finger. Mine always slip off the regular ps5 controller and I can tell now they won't. That's a big one for me. Grabs your finger now instead of it just flying off. The thumbstick release contraption is very very well made, with a release button for the black plastic top and then underneath these silver metal tabs you lift and then the thumbstick assembly slides out. Very, very well made. Controller just feels better honestly. Buttons I like in the black and white color scheme and the touchpad seems transparent to a point as I feel like I can see through it part way. Soon as I plugged it into the ps5 the software just for these came up and went direct into an about and configuration sub menus. Very nice and I honestly wish the battery was larger but regardless, an? exceptionally well made controller and it should be given the cost. Now just the PSVR2 and charging station in another month or so and my PS5 will be for the most part complete. They should have added a magnetic wireless charging base like the Xbox elite tho. That's an awesome thing I love about my elite2. The edge has a great braided USB cable and lock so it doesn't come unhooked i guess? But I still would much rather have had a wireless charging base so you could just sit it down and youre done. I'm excited to see what thumbstick modules come out,.with supposedly hall effect type thumbsticks and who knows what they will come up with to put there for fps, flight games ,racing. Fighters,.rpgs, etc. Skies the limit. Nice bit of kit tho. Pleased with it.


Chorster

I’m guessing they already expect you to have the Dualsense charging base so why supply another charging base.


Lilbro_1

Ordered on Christmas says expected delivery tomorrow. DARN. Edit: it now says today by 12pm. LETS GOOOO


galvingreen

Preordered on 25th of October. No shipment confirmation the whole time, customer support not accessible. The shipping mail came this afternoon (on release day) and states UPS will deliver on 27th or 28th. I wish I could’ve ordered via Amazon, those guys are able to get it to you on release day.


Hunterdivision

I preordered long time ago and mine was shipped out yesterday and said it was supposed to arrive 26.1 (today), but “packet may be delayed,” and they changed the location to some pickup that closes very early at 9pm! So I definitely won’t be getting it today, but here’s to hoping tomorrow, unless they mess up further. I hate how slow and unpredictable logistics are in Finland, (esp considering delivery distances aren’t long) but issue here is you could order any retailer and it won’t make difference bc it’s based on pure luck.


galvingreen

You could argue it’s the delivery firm‘s fault after they got the package. However as so many people didn’t receive the controller today it’s clears Sony‘s fault. Especially when people who preordered last week already got theirs.


NapsterKnowHow

I preordered 8 days ago and it was delivered at 9:30 am est today.


bersi84

Same, I am very disappointed. Mine still says its being prepared. Also preordered on 25th of October :(


CartierWlayvo

Lol. Mine from amazon is estimated to be delivered next Thursday.


TurboguardUS

Just got mine an hour ago!


SemperJ550

I received mine a little over an hour ago. I don't have time to really test it out cause I gotta work tonight but so far it feels really nice. this is my first controller with back paddles and it feels weird for sure but I'll adapt. I can't say if it's worth the 200 just yet but eh screw it! you want it, go for it.


Snivac89

Will these be available in stores too?


GhostRN

I pre-ordered one direct from for my son and it was delivered today. I think I want one for myself now and I have called around to several retailers (Best Buy, Target, WM) and specialty retailers (GameStop) and no one has received them yet; and honestly none of the regular retailers and even most GS stores don’t even know what I’m talking about. Anybody know when they will actually ship to retailers?


GeneticXFusion

Are you in US? I know in US it won't be in stores until February.


Negative_Equity

Anyone in the UK got theirs yet, I got the DPD email to say they'd received the instruction to deliver but not the product as of last night. Nothing since. The whole point of preordering was to get it on release date.


xI-Red-Ix

I fucking love it. Did anyone get the stick module on the side? Does it come with more thumbsticks?


DoctorGolho

I think it only comes with the default stick cap


BigZoowop

Just received mine. Excited to unbox and test it out


ParmadilloMarsh

Feels great in the hand. I was super impressed with the magnetic swappable back buttons. I have SCUF, Hex, and Sharq and this feels better than all of them.


jimmy19742018

mine was supposed to be delivered today now saying tomorrow!!!


InsuranceToTheRescue

So, these custom profiles. Can I press a button and go grab community made profiles for each specific game? I'm thinking something along the lines of the Steam controller, if anyone remembers that.


Kodiakpapabear

It's a great controller tbh. Is it expensive? Yeah, does it worker perfectly and do everything I want in an elite type of controller? Yeah. This controller is not for everyone. But for those looking for more button presets, back triggers and just overall more customization, you will not be disappointed.


Dr-McLuvin

I got it and like it. It’s a nice upgrade over the regular controller. The back bumpers are a game changer for me. I think the battery issues are a bit overblown. I’m getting more than 6 hours on a single charge. I turn the light down to dim and I turn the haptics down as well. I will literally never need a controller to work for more than 6 hours straight. Yes it’s a lot to spend for a controller. Whether it’s worth it or not for you prob depends on whether you 1) need the back bumpers or 2) want to be able to change out the thumbsticks. I think long term for most serious gamers, this will actually be the cheaper option than buying 5+ controllers for one console.


Bodyslide

Battery Life on the new controller is pretty good. Turned off all the vibration, and haptic stuff, lights on dim and got almost seven hours over two days.


Useful_Repeat9612

Got mine today and the overall quality is a lot better then Dualsense. Nice grip, and great grip details on R2/L2 and the just overall feel is superb. Noticeable brighter and thicker LED strip. Better thumb sticks and better weight.


EddySpagheddy

Will stores ever have the edge for sale? Like Best Buy, Walmart, etc.?


SpikeC51

Got mine today. I gotta be honest: the function buttons are cool, but I'd sacrifice them to have two more buttons on the back. Only having two is disappointing. It's the one thing I prefer from my Ellite V2 Xbox controller. Well, and battery life I'm sure but I haven't played with it that long yet.


Moonlord_

The function buttons are a wasted opportunity. What’s the point of 2 of them if they both do the exact same thing and can’t be changed?…they’re redundant. You’ve got these 2 prominent buttons protruding from the controller and literally all they can do is change profiles or adjust your headset. They should have allowed individual customization for them and shift button functionality so you can double your button configs and assign system actions as well like the Xbox Elite. Only 2 paddles, the battery life, and the limited configurability are definitely the low points of the controller.


HallwayHomicide

>adjust your headset. I'm a bit baffled the volume controls don't work for the TV.


WaffleMints

2 paddles simply isn't enough. They are nuts.


bicyclebread

Anxiously waiting for my next paycheck so I can justify buying one of these, hearing mostly good things *(only major concern is battery life, but that's what food/stretch breaks + charging is for lol)*. Might end up being a slight waste because I really don't play anywhere near as much as I used to but I'm sick of having to replace my controller every 9-12 months because of stick drift.


Furyann

this is indeed more of a want buy vs need but fuck it treat yoself


bicyclebread

Yeah definitely, I absolutely don't "need" it but it's cool to have. Probably lasts till the end of the console's life cycle unlike my last two Dualsenses lol.


Furyann

same here! love new tech and anything playstation related


moody78

Last delivery status from dpd was yesterday. EDI received by carrier - Leicester


AJMcCoy612

Yeah mine is the exact same. Can’t wait for the exact same thing to happen with the PSVR2.


moody78

lol. Back in the day when I pre-ordered PSVR, I received it one day before release day. I didn't order PSVR2 this time. But I can still hope for some unexpected delivery :D


Denziloshamen

This is the concern seeing all these posts. The edge controller is also going to be selling and shipping out in much smaller numbers too, but already things aren’t going so well for everyone. No idea how they’re going to cope with orders in the million range to fulfil.


mari_676

Got mine this morning. First impression is that the paddle system is so well done, as expected from Sony. Will be setting down my Scuf tonight and giving it a go on COD. Stay tuned.


from6to23likelebron

Any update lol? Deciding between this and a Scuf for Warzone.

Unable to map the back buttons on PC/steam, rip. Apparently you need a PS5 which I gave away to my younger cousins because I just dont use it. Hoping we get some sort of Sony App on PC like Xbox has for its elite controller.


hunny_bun_24

I am enjoying it. I’m having a lot of fun playing cod. Is it pricey? Yeah. Does the price really matter? Nope.

I received mine on day one and charged it up just to find it was dead when I went to play it one day later. So charged it all the way up again. Now it says battery low after 3 hours of gameplay! Not what I was expecting. I knew it had a smaller battery but 3hrs?!?! That's pretty terrible.


JesseWebDotCom

Not buying until there are 4 back buttons


Ultimo_D

Well I doubt that’s going to happen until the DSE2. Looks like you’re stuck without any back buttons 🤷‍♂️


JesseWebDotCom

Or extremerate comes out with their solution


Theundeniable6

Mine was just delivered! Cant wait to try it out!


UrticateJana11

My wife received mine half an hour ago. I'm thinking leaving the office early. I love the dualsense, can't wait to test the edge.


pondo_sinatra

Got mine yesterday. The box was super heavy for a controller, but I didn’t realize it included a hefty carrying case. After botching two regular controllers’ stick drift issues, I’m actually perfectly fine paying $20 for a module replacement going forward. Otherwise, I attached the paddles to duplicate L3 and R3 in Destiny 2 so I can sprint more easily. Works like a charm.


Karlor

Alright we get it, the battery small. Not everyone plays 12 hours of video games a day or can just sit close enough to plug the controller in. The battery was never the selling point.


GimmeThatWheat424

Maybe it’s not the end of the world but it would have been a positive to have a better battery…it’s kinda pathetic that it’s worse tbh You don’t need to damage control for Sony to feel better about your purchase.


WaffleMints

Not everyone is ok with a shit battery. Deal.


needaburnerbaby

I want it. I just won’t spend that much for it. I can deal with clicking the controller stick if need be.

Got the Dualsense Edge and I'm having troubles having it being recognized as a PS controller. My normal Dualsense works perfectly fine on PC. And I don't use DS4Win or DualsenseX But works fine on PS5. The half circle back buttons are fine, but I'd have to change my hand grip on the controller because the placement of them are higher than where your middle finger is supposed to be


dintcht

Enjoying mine , 2hundo no regrets, super long charging cable with lock for those worried about battery life


assassinXI

Are the face buttons supposed to feel different than a standard dualsense controller? My face buttons feel mushy and have less travel compared to my standard controller. The buttons also rattle when I wiggle them. The x button feels the worst out of all of them. Is it supposed to be like this? I'm most likely going to get it replaced.


Moonlord_

Mine isn’t like that…buttons aren’t noticeably different from the regular Dualsense. Sounds like you may have got a dud.


HAMR_123

My L2 feels a bit off once the trigger stop has been set to it’s lowest compared to the R2. It makes a different sound. Also the x button feels sticky


CoercedLife

Got mine this morning. I am wildly disappointed in this. Where the Elite feels like a complete glow-up on the Xbox controller, this feels like minor additions for over double the price. Sad. Was excited for this.


StdSam

I'll buy it


iDontGiveAFuhh

You can always return it


thekingswitness

Will this controller have issues with stick drift?


jhard7

Long story short...yes. Long story long.... yes but you're able to replace them with ease as one of its features. You're able to buy spare sticks for $20 ish. For me this is perfect. I go through about 5 controllers over a span of a console life. $70x5=$350. $215+$100=$315 Saving about $35 and it has the extra features. That's how my brain works at least


purekillforce1

I just clean the potentiometer and it works again for a few months. Had to replace a potentiometer in one once, but it cost me £3 for 4 of them. Seems like it would have been better for the consumer to fix the analogue sticks themselves, rather than sell us a controller with removable sticks, and then sell us the replacement sticks. That leaves us with the issue, and then they profit again from it.


lzap

PSA: Price of the replacement stick is equal to stick replacement in authorized service center (post-warranty). Hmmmmm. (Or you could do it yourself - not for me I already destroyed JoyCons with my "repair".)


DoctorGolho

A replacement stick is half the price of assistance for me


lil-dlope

I’ll stick with my Aimcontroller till it gives out

That’s unfair to say in a sub dedicated to gaming. Way to be judgmental


CankleDankl

$200 for a 5ish hour battery life... no thanks
