Bonacell Wireless Controller for Ps4 Gamepad with 6-Axis

 

Initially I did like this as I thought the Share and Select buttons were easier to press than the original ones, the trade off is that the PlayStation button is a little harder to press, the fortunate thing is that you do not need to press the PlayStation button in the heat of the moment, but the others sometime you do, therefore it is a matter pf preference as to which one’s you would prefer to be more prominent.

The pad feels well made and could handle a long gaming session very easy, the buttons feel responsive and sturdy, it would have been a nice touch to have had the PlayStation symbols on the buttons, maybe that is a licencing issue, who knows, instead all you have is bright lights glowing out of all the buttons, my son thinks it’s cool, me not so much so, it does say that the colours are changeable, but I haven’t tried changing them yet. I suppose for curiosities sake I will at some point try to change the colours.

It was simple enough to connect to the console, I just plugged in the (very short) lead provided and it connected to the console with no issues.

It would have been a positive if they had supplied a longer lead with this, as when I first plugged it in, I had to stand there next to the console as the lead was going nowhere, it isn’t a major concern just would have been a nice touch.

The battery is charge through a usb-c connection, and seemed to last quite a long time, I did charge it fully before use to to make sure I got full use out of it, and as I say so far it lasted quite a while.

Overall if you are looking for a spare pad for your console, this isn’t a bad choice for the price point.
