Took a chance on this because of a great review. I was so pleased that it’s everything he said. Feels very solid. More so that the original. Great button and trigger action. Connects to PS4 perfectly. Charged with any C-Type cable you have hanging around but comes with a 1m long one. Had to turn down my sensitivity a little as this is actually more responsive then the official PS4 controller. The grip is slightly fatter than the original, so if you have big hands, it’s actually better. It also has great black rubber grip. After using this for a few months, I can’t find any faults with it.
Bought this controller with little expectation having had third-party controllers before which have disappointed or not lasted long.
This third-party controller really surprised me. It feels slightly heavier than an original PS4 unit and more sturdier too. Used this for two months and not had any problems so far – it is excellent. Also, battery life is very good too. Recommended.
I wasn’t expecting much when I bought this but I have to say this is a decent solid controller, it’s not flimsy and there’s a bit of weight to it, refreshingly surprised,
well pleased, good piece of kit.
This was an accidental buy, that i received before i got a chance to cancel. I initiated the return process but at the same time i was curious to see how it performs, so i opened the box and gave it a shot.
Boy, i’m glad i did!
The controller initially feels bulky (but sturdy!), and the spacing between the L and R buttons is different than the Sony controller. That might alienate some users but you get over it really quick. Another minor inconvenience is the home button (feels small) but again, you get used to it.
The light bar is very elegant and i prefer it over the Sony one. Sound from the controller is on par with the Sony controller, and so is headphone output.
Battery life is amazing! Seems to go on and on and on….
Performance wise, the controller works as expected. The back buttons (pre-programmed as L3 and R3) are a game changer, in games like God of War for example where the use of L3 & R3 is important.
No drift issues, and seamless performance all around. It just feels right.
In the end i decided to cancel the return and keep it. It’s an excellent controller if you can get past some minor quirks. I can’t comment on its longevity (remains to be seen), but for now it’s a nice addition to my gaming system.
1 star taken for 2 reasons:
I can’t program the back buttons following the instructions, and there was a slight “squeak” sound when using the R2 button, which seems to have gone after a few gaming hours.
The pad is built on the ps5 design so I liked straight away, it feels heavy and chunky and solid, the buttons feel and act much like a ps5 pad with the exception of the d pad ones which seem to have a bit more travel on them but you get used to it very quickly as it’s only a few mm .
As for the programmable back buttons I have tried everything to program them but they won’t accept anything or even show that you are trying to program them and they are on my pad locked to the thumb sticks being pressed down for pressing both at once and the x button seems to be on the right back paddle, in the game I’m playing the left is I think programmed to the square button but I’m not sure as yet.
Have tried many different brands over the years but only the expensive original Sony item worked perfectly.
Until now!
25 instead of 45!
These are not as good as the Sony units…
They are BETTER imo!
So good i have bought
enough to replace the ageing fleet of controllers we have.
I have given them 5 stars without hesitation, the one thing that may mark them down would be longevity!
Time will tell but for know, great purchase and would highly recomend.
Important note is that the controller requires a USB-C cable in order to recharge, which is not mentioned in the item descriptions. It comes with a short USB-C cable, but if you want to charge and play, you might need to order an additional cable.
If you’re finding it hard to link to your PS4, remember you have to connect it directly via a USB cable to the PS4 for the initial pairing. After that, it will connect wirelessly.
