The DualSense Edge is the first native pro controller designed for the ground up for the PlayStation 5. It's been almost 1 year since it's been released and used it as my daily driver controller... how has it held up? Is it truly the best Pro Controller for the PS5? Is it worth the asking price?

First time seeing a Caribbean tech reviewer. Really refreshing to see (my mom is cartibean, i grew up in the US) keep up the awesome work!
Thanks a lot my friend 🍻. I’ll keep doing my best! 😁. And that’s cool re your mom, small world eh 😊. Big up!
I love your content, you deserve way more subscribers
Wow thank you so much my friend🍻. Really appreciate it! And thanks for watching 😊
After months of consulting and watching many videos, your video was the one to convince me to buy it. Well done!
Awesome bro! Glad I could help and thanks for watching! 🍻
Hey man good video I just bought the dual sense edge driving home with it now😊
Nice! I know you’ll love it! 🍻. I’ve even started modding it now 😂. Just did a couple videos on that. Here’s 1 of em if you wanna check it out: th-cam.com/video/RJHpO63b27w/w-d-xo.html
Very instructive video. Now I feel fully informed as to whether or not to invest in the me of those. Thank you. 🙏🏾
You’re most welcome and thanks for watching! 🍻. I would always recommend this controller. It may seem expensive at the get go, but the mere fact that you’ll never want to put it down ever again after getting it makes it a worthy investment. Go for it!
Good video, I think you’ve convinced me to get one.
Thanks bro! And believe me if you’re on the fence about it, just get it. It’s worth it in my opinion.
I’m thinking about buying one of these for myself. Great video. 👍
Thanks for watching 🍻… and if you’re thinking of grabbing 1, just do it! You won’t regret it. It will be the only controller you’ll ever want to use with your PS5. It’s worth it for that alone.
It's the same as regular dual sense it doesn't have a premium feel and the replacement sticks cost as much as a controller on special now don't buy this it's also known for it's terrible durability The grips are guaranteed to bubble up and the back buttons are none responsive after a few months of use be careful and save your money you'll never use the special features or even feel them after looking at them once look at other video's about the controller recently they are all about the durability problems
@@gigapac I’m sorry you had such a horrible experience but myself and all my other friends have never experienced any of those problems at all. We all share the same sentiments in terms of what I said in my video… it’s an excellent pro controller for the PS5 and we all can’t see ourselves without it. There has been no malfunctions or durability issues to speak of after a whole year. I can only speak for myself though and ultimately I take care of my electronics and accessories.
@@KamaniBrowni got this for Christmas and I'm devastated i thought it would have different materials and features but everything is the same as a regular dual sense i don't even notice it when playing. Same as the right trigger it doesn't work for me at time's maybe i got a dud and should ask sony for a replacement?
@@gigapac that’s very unfortunate bro. That also sounds really unusual as well because it feels solid to me… even today after a year’s worth of fairly heavy use. But yet again I tend to baby my electronics 😂. The only thing I would worry about giving out over time would be the sticks and at least those are easily replaceable. Maybe yours was defective 🤷🏾♂️. If it’s still under warranty, you may need to get it checked out.
Is There any heavy stick tension joysticks module available for Dual sense edge?
Unfortunately there’s none that I am aware of for the dualsense edge.
These things are very easy to clean. You just get a toothpick and scrub out the dirt in the sides. You can also use alcohol wipes. Very important to keep your control of clean so it doesn't break down
That is indeed true my friend! I will admit though, recently (a while after this review) the inner rubber type of material on the handles have started to discolour unfortunately to a slight blown...no amount of cleaning can fix that. So unfortunately unlike the original dualsense, the materials aren't as durable after long term it seems. My original dualsense controllers are still a breeze to clean though.
Nice review Kamani
Thanks for watching my friend 🍻
I am using mine since launch and I am quite happy with it!
Just have some concerns with the grips. They start to have a yellowish tint and also start to get away from the controller on the edges.
It’s the same for me brother trust me I can’t do without it now 😅. The next PS6 should come with it as standard 😂. As for the yellow tint, have you tried using some 70% isopropyl alcohol?
You can use solebright. The same thing that reverses yellowing on Jordan 11’s soles
But i going to buy it but If i use fan on My hands does grip peel off in few months?
@@Player83852 I’m not sure what you mean by if you use a fan… but I can assure you that the controller is pretty durable as is. None of my PS5 controllers including the Edge has shown any signs of peeling or yellowing after months and years of use and I live in a tropical climate (Jamaica) that gets pretty hot in the summers. They only get a little dirty from time to time from sweat, dirt and oils on my hands and all I do is use some 70% isopropyl alcohol and they are clean almost like new again.
@@KamaniBrown like i get sweaty quick and The fan IS getting My hands mess sweaty but does edge peel off quick ?
Is it possible to map X, O, square, triangle to a stick? TY
Unfortunately no you cannot. You can only map the extra back buttons.
Bro how is your controller white on back. I owned one of these for 1 month and back was permanently discolored yellow. And I am an extremely clean individual so that is unlikely for me to happen. Im amazed at your condition controller.
Lol. I don’t know what to say bro… mine did start changing color eventually though to be honest. My take on it is the material they use for that side of the controller is prone to premature degradation depending on each person’s circumstances (environment, care, use, sweaty palms, etc…). For me, like a couple months after making this video it did start to change to a light brown. Not a big deal though… I changed the shell completely and it looks so sick! 😁… I show how I did it in this video here:
th-cam.com/video/oJtIep-YtTk/w-d-xo.html
how many hours roughly have you spent using this controller over the course of the year?
This is a rather peculiar question… but I use it at the very least (in a busy week) around 4-5 hrs per day for about 3-4 days out of the week. Hoping that helps 🤷🏾♂️.
It's not peculiar, that's just stats, and ngl 5 hours a day? That controller is tough I play maybe 1-3 hours depending if I get distracted@@KamaniBrown
@@VamxieRoyale ok bro I understand. And no worries I get you. It’s been holding up pretty well though. Still no notable signs of wear and tear on my end.
Bro try switch the back buttons around. Use the left side on the right. It turns into a scuff controller back buttons
Great idea bro! I tried it on accident 1 day… it does give a sharper feel for competitive play, but I prefer the regular position for casual and story gameplay because it feels more relaxed in the hands to me.
This is going to be a long paragraph...
I bought my PS5 slim spiderman 2 bundle on black friday this year,which came with 1 controller, then yesterday i traded my old dualshock 4 to my friend and he gave me an almost new dualsense in the box so I know have 2 dualsense controllers but i really want a dualsense edge but its really expensive im thinking of either getting a bunch of games and ps+ for christmas and my birthday since its in january,or i am thinking of just getting the dualsense edge only for christmas and birthday and get the games later,but i have no clue what to do
Well to be honest my friend I would suggest getting the games and PS+ (especially if those games are games you actually want) because as great as the dualsense edge is… it makes no sense to get it if you have no games to play with it 🤷🏾♂️. You can always save up and get the dualsense edge later.
You can even trade in those games (when you’re done playing them) along with 1 of the regular dualsense controllers you already own and then save up the remaining amount and get the dualsense edge later.
@@KamaniBrownmy games currently are fortnite,god of war 2018,god of war lll,and im thinking of getting ghost of tsushima and god of war ragnarok once i platinum the 2 god of war games,i think buying the dualsense edge was and is a really good decision
@@cnatical yea it is. Like I said u won’t regret it my friend.
@@KamaniBrown have you had problems with the white rubber grip on the dualsense edge yellowing?
@@cnatical nope not at all! But I do suggest at least every couple weeks to wipe it down with some 70% isopropyl alcohol to keep it clean. I never thought white was a great choose for Sony with these controllers 😅. They look cool tho 🤷🏾♂️
I had two stick drifts on my controller in one year
Wow! That’s crazy bro 😮. Mine are still going strong with no signs of that… hoping it stays that way 🤞🏾. Good thing they sell the sticks separately which should be around $20 a piece… however I have been noticing them going in and out of stock quite often lately with scumbag scalpers price gouging them… sigh… best of luck bro. I really hope you get them replaced soon. It’s still my favorite PS5 controller by a long shot.
FYI though I have built a custom PS5 pro controller from the ground up for less money than the Edge (currently waiting on final parts to finish up the video). It will perform even better in esport and competitive play online as well. So stay tuned for that also.
About the dual-stick mods for $20, you are correct. Trying to find them anywhere was like when the PS5 first came out, with scalpers selling them for almost three times their worth. I love my PlayStation Edge controller; I actually have two now. I'm holding off on using my older one until I get new parts. I've just been having bad luck; the second one I purchased already had stick drift, so this is my third controller now. I used to be a really hardcore COD player, but despite the mishaps, it's still my favorite controller.
@@GAMESK3325 I feel you bro. It’s crazy. Don’t know why they’re so scarce after all this time! I hope that gets sorted real soon though.
I hate that blueish black color they use in the analog stick part and the back
I definitely get what you mean bro. The style isn’t for everyone. I dig it though. But if you want, changing its look is pretty easy. Here’s a video I did recently showing how to change the face and back plates: th-cam.com/video/RJHpO63b27w/w-d-xo.html
I’m also working on finishing up a video showing me change the entire body/look of the dualsense edge. It looks so sick! You’re gonna love the look I came up with so you can definitely look out for when I drop that 1 in the next couple days.
1st❤
Controller comfort is night and day for me on edge versus OG. OG doesn't even exist to me. OG had cut off handles, giving me discomfort in my palms. OG has a black lip under the sticks, digging into my fingers. Back has no shape curve like ps4 controller. Overall the edge is mandatory for me to enjoy ps5 games because the controller was the worst design I ever witnessed. For me, personally, from the issues I stated above.
I completely agree bro 🍻. Trust me, after getting the edge, I can’t do without it anymore. And after getting a rechargeable battery for it, I almost never have to put it down or plug it in no matter how long my gaming session is. I did a video review on that battery here:
