How is PS4 Fake Controllers Experience

Fake DualShock 4 Controllers are everywhere and if you wondered how such controllers behave, I have 3 different fake controllers and I've tested each one of them.
Due to its price, being cheaper, some people may chose a fake in front of a genuine controller, but are they the same? Are those controllers the same quality? Is the experience of using a fake, the same with using an original controller?
If you want to know how is like using a fake PlayStation 4 controller, and what is the difference between fake and original, this is it!

Great video bro
I have a question did you test the battery as i bought fake one and the battery last for 2 hours but charge to 90% in half hour i don't know if it even bad or not

[@YesterdaysTech]

The battery should last at least 4 hours, even more, for a fake 2 hours it's fine

Hello, I have a question, when using a Gamepad tester, does a fake controller show diferent names, vendor and produnct numbers? I tried with my controller, which I'm sure is genuine, and also with a friend's controller, and they both showed "Sony PS4 Dualshock Wireless Controller (STANDARD GAMEPAD Vendor: 054c Product: 09cc)" (I suppose Vendor and Product number will differenciate between models...) but I was wondering how we could use this informations to spot a fake one just by testing it.

[@YesterdaysTech]

What Gamepad Tester are you using? I don't think you can be sure by Vendor and Product numbers. I have a separate video about how to spot a fake by appearance, did you watch it? Once you see that video, it's pretty easy to spot fakes. It usually takes me less than 20 seconds to tell if a controller is fake or not

I have three PS4 DS4's. One OG V2 and two brandless AliExpress aftermarket. TLDR; After modding they feel more premium than an OG DS4.
One is clear with RGB, hall effect joysticks that are super smooth, programmable back buttons and the whole thing feels more premium than an OG. The only thing I didn't like was the feeling of the thumb stick caps, but I took the sticks out of the second aftermarket, a fake PS5 DualSense that works on PS4 whose sticks are the only thing that were not very close to the real DualSense but I actually like their feel better, the rubber feels almost like between a DS3 and DS4. The R2 sping snapped so I needed to replace it and the bottom edge of the triggers is hard and sharp against my finger which leaves a red mark, so at the moment I'm using blutac and I'm thinking to try hot glue. The rear has screw holes at either side of my palm which I also don't like and filled it with blutac for now. In spite of this it feels more premium to hold and use.
The other controller is a fake PS5 DualSense designed to work with the PS4. That one I performed a full shell replacement, buttons, membrains and all with the closest looking and feeling replica I could find to make it even more authentic and give it the texture on the back. Although I have serviced the left joystick and fixed it substantially there is still a bit of dead zone. So I have ordered hall effect replacement joysticks. It too will end up feeling much better than a DS4 and cheaper than the real DualSense or even the adapter I needed to connect it to a PS4 that didn't even support wireless or the touchpad.
These controller work amazing with the PS4, ironically the only place where they are subpar for me is on Android where I use the trackpad to click on anything I have not mapped in games like Genshin/HSR. On Android and Windows the trackpad is not as good as the original. The bluetooth is also somehow weaker as well when paired with Android yet somehow perfect on PS4. So even though I originally bought them for Android I ended up using the OG DS4 on Android and the aftermarket DS4's on PS4/PC.
Because the DS4 still has value for me on Android I will be modding it too to make it feel more premium now that I have a new benchmark. The terrible microusb is one thing I intend to replace with USB-C for starters.

[@LEGENDGAMING-qb2px]

Will the fake controller can last a year, which any issues ??

[@ezekielyumul987]

Can you still overclock the controller? For the input lag?

[@RhaloODST]

here's another test that i haven't seen anyone else mention, do the fake controllers have motion sensor? Gyroscope and Accelerometer

[@percymorgueansah4453]

The playtime of a ps4 fake controller?

[@xIJudasIx]

Thank you.

[@SaintMecha]

Can be used on mobile?

[@eshwarkanhai2341]

Hey bro quick question does these fake controllers have the vibration effect

[@YesterdaysTech]

Yes, all of them includes vibration rumble motors

[@danielkingbg435]

Thanks

[@Tahaaa964]

Does fake ps4 controller touchpad work or no

[@JamalisTheword-vh8rk]

Man ive been using a fake controller for 3 years😭

[@-fozan8643]

I have a fake one but works fine but i know it doesnt give the best efficiency than a real controller

[@juzzotec]

Where can you get the fakes from? Websites links?

[@Katastrophe03]

Ebay is crowded with these controllers

[@hossamshahroor]

It goood or bad ?

[@gianlucap1935]

What about the gyro guys? Does it work on fake controllers?

[@HyperSonic1999orJTH]

Not sure about these fakes, but the no brand one I got a year ago has working gyro, touchpad, speaker and aux. I think as long as it's one based on the v2 ds4, it's likely to have those features unlike the older v1 clones.

[@edenc.m4576]

Thanks for making these videos bro, I have a original ps5 but I still play more on the ps4 pro as I have so many games still 😅 but my controllers are starting to mess up and I’m worried I will buy a fake because it’s so hard to tell 😒

[@Mhenniful]

Hi my friend , thank you for this good video , but there s something missing , you should ve checked the weight of each controller , it will help a lot ! I will appreciate it if you drop a comment about that , not necessary a video .
Thank you my friend again .

[@YesterdaysTech]

Good point! If you wanna know the weight for spotting a fake, I have a separate video for that. If you just think about the whole experience regarding its weight, they're all in the same range, maybe just few grams

[@yuriiserdiuk3918]

thanks for video ❤

[@mohamedcage1563]

So the Japan supposed fake is the best one between them

[@YesterdaysTech]

In my case, yes

[@Ozone-zv5gg]

The controller that looks like an Xbox controller I recommend it to Xbox players movin to ps it’s really good in my opinion I had the same one but it doesn’t work because of charging connected but everything is good

[@FlameGamez69420]

Can the supposed US Version be connected to an iPad?

[@YesterdaysTech]

Didn't test it, but most probably yes

[@hmmm57788]

HI i Need Ur help Is it same or does fake controlers Broke Soo easily. Look i brought fake contolrer And IT Broke IT in like 7days And i drop IT by accident by like Two times And when i wanted to play i had to camera issue u know stick drift Soo im really confused i think Its bcs Its fake cuz my reall controler survived for like 5years

[@YesterdaysTech]

As told in the video, not all the fakes are same, I've tested 3 different fakes and they were all different. A genuine controller should not have drifting after 7 days and should survive several falls without problems

[@avikdutta637]

Can fake controlar make any issues to our ps4??

[@YesterdaysTech]

No, it makes nothing to the PS4

[@yzx9122]

Is it support 3.5 earphone kack?

[@YesterdaysTech]

Yes

[@abderrahmaneouzar1243]

[@andresaviles2428]
