Sony is selling PS5 at cost. It's too bad we had so much rampant scalping for the first couple of years. Sony took an investment into the gaming community at selling the console cheaper than it is to make, and people just resold it at gouged prices.
The controller wouldn't need replaceable stick modules if it just had hall effect sticks and the software customization could have been done with the standard dualsense.
100% this! There is no excuse to not have the system wide deadzone adjustment available for the regular controllers. Replaceable sticks is a positive but considering the price of the Edge (and the sticks themselves) you'd have to wear out something like 4 stick modules before you'd actually start saving money, and by that time other parts of the controller would probably start giving you problems. I'm keeping my hopes up for third party hall effect based sticks for this controller.
The chance of the cable falling out is pretty low with modern usb cables but it’s a nice touch. Improving the battery should’ve been more of a priority
One improvement I've noticed that the Edge has over the Dualsense is that the area where you rest your pinky has been rounded compared to being more angular/pointy on the original controller. I've seen a few people complain about that on the Dualsense because it would jab into your fingers causing fatigue.
@@nekaneka-lo2js wow your IQ is off the charts...re-read what you just wrote. It's exactly BECAUSE of the reliability issues of the XBOX controller that we should be skeptical of this overpriced piece of plastic.
The only thing I'm jealous from this controller over my Elite 2, is the replaceable joysticks. Should be on all model of controller, no matter what the system!
Adding this function basically means you have to re-design the entire controller. Actually impressive Sony maintains the size and reduces the weight of the controller besides adding this feature.
@@gabrielsun3834 you just said it. If Sony was able to do it, with the same size controller, why the others can't? It would just be excuses from them, to make more money.
My biggest fear is with the changeable analog sticks. The astro c40’s had the same feature and those were even more prone to stick drift and needed to be changed more often in my experience. Hope this isn’t the same
It for sure will be the case. Companies have no incentive to fix drift when the majority of people accept it at this point as a "it will happen eventually". Now that it's established, it's time for them to move to the next phase of disposable/replaceable components the user has to replace
my controller gets mad stickdrift after 3-5 months so thats 70 dollars everytime why wouldnt he get one for 200 dollars and just replace joysticks for way cheaper everytime? @@NoOneHere2020
Swapping out the sticks when they inevitably get stick drift is a HUGE selling point. I’ve already gone thru 2 regular controllers so $199 isn’t that bad
Been waiting for mine to ship. Can’t wait to finally get a Sony Pro controller. Finally a quality one and not a Scuf or Astro. It is pricey but 100% worth it given what all you get with it and the quality.
They didn't forget, they made the battery smaller to make room for more tech. It's a pro controller. Pros play wired for the lowest possible latency, so it's fine for the intended use.
I'm so glad this is reviewing well. Pro controllers have a very hit or miss nature and I'm glad to see Sony took it seriously, as they do with most things.
2:28 If I'm not mistaken in an interview they said those "half circle" shapes are based off some kind of board game in Japan? or something along those lines?
Waiting on mine to arrive (With delivery driver now) Super excited for this with Call of Duty and Destiny. Definitely feel the benefits will be substantial, the interface is impeccable. Not worried about battery life as I'm going to just hard wire it
This could actually be really cool with games like Skyrim. You could create a new profile that has no deadzone and just walk around instead of having to slightly edge the analog stick upwards just to walk Unlike PC, console has no toggle walk button in games and thumbs get tired needing to be in an awkward position.
Obviously it will You're better off getting a 3rd party Xbox con with 1ms polling rate, hall sensor sticks + triggers, trigger locks, and 4 proper back buttons for $50 instead
I was working at EB Games…gamer for life…I left gaming maybe 15 years ago…now getting back into it with PS5 and VR2 this week. My mind is about to be BLOWN with this tech
You're likely going to be disappointed. Not many great games anymore. I bought a PS4 just for the new Hitman Trilogy because I was such a huge Hitman fan that I dished out hundreds of dollars just to play it. Besides still really enjoying that even after 4 or 5 years now, every game I buy I just can't seem to get into and finish them. And these are notorious games according to gamers. I've beaten maybe 10 percent of Metro Exodus, haven't picked it back up since. I beat RDR2's story by 52% according to the game, and I'm now completely bored with it. Such a boring game I don't know why people like a game where you spend more than half the time watching cut scenes and riding a horse from point A to B over and over. One mission you're literally walking in chains as a prisoner, like give me a BREAK! Rockstar, you should make a damn cowboy movie, it's obvious RDR2 should have just been a TV show because the game is super mediocre. You'd have more fun playing Max Payne 3. The remakes of some classics are really disappointing, like Resident Evil 4 remake and the Mafia Remake. Maybe I just grew out of gaming, but then again like I said I play Hitman pretty much every day if I can so maybe the games just suck.
@ yeah they’re needs to be real investment. Remember when Zuckerberg bought that VR headset off that guy for 2 billion? He could have bought that for ONE billion and spend a BILLION DOLLARS on setting up new game studios…that’s like 30x AAA titles that don’t have to make ANY profit….but would have. I think if he has done that, the whole landscape today would be different.
Looks cool, and the replacement sticks gives peace of mind. But what about the L2/R2 triggers, that rubber membrane is the single thing thats not stood the test of time on all my DS4 controllers, haven't had my PS5 long enough yet to see if its different but wouldn't this mean a tear apart?
One thing I have to say is that people complain about the battery life of the controllers but the thing is what I have learned is that you have to lower down the light of your controller so then it uses up less battery. Trust me it works. I have done it on PS4 and on PS five now and my controller can be used up to to multiple hours up to more than 10 hours in one full battery life and of course I always top off my battery when I get off the game.
@@calvinm1866 Bought a scuff a couple of years ago and it's still goin strong, but theres a ton of cheaper 3;rd party controllers with 4 back buttons... 2 is a fail imo
i've gone through three controllers in 2 years from stick drift/trigger issues, couldn't fathom buying a controller from sony at this price point at all
A 9.0? I guess since the Elite has four back paddles, swappable stick lengths, adjustable stick tension, a longer lasting battery, and costs far less, it must be a 10.
But also can get stick drift and can't be fixed. Literally the one thing everybody wants. Also you do know the elite has like half the tech in it then this ps??
Honestly the people that would buy this controller would most likely have a setup where they can play with it plugged in anyway so the battery complaint is minor really
Why is it so much money? Honest question. Is it the materials or the shipping or perhaps the insurance? Why do they need 200$ for a ps5 controller. The normal ones are 60$ and of you want buttons on the back its all of a sudden so much harder to make that it warrents 200$.
While this controller is definitely packed with features, it is simply not worth the price considering it is still prone to drifting. In Canada, this thing costs 270$. It just doesn't make any sense when you could buy 3 regular controllers at that price.

I’ve got nerve damage in my hand which make doing things with my left hand difficult. Hoping this thing makes life easier. Already planned out which controls I’m switching out.
Just wonder if its durable is really better than xbox elite series 2 controller. If it actually is, I'll consider buying ps5 console and this controller to play fps games only
The stick modules are 20 dollars a piece plus 5 dollars shopping. To replace both sticks is gonna be $45. That's insane sony. The components seem quality and reinforced, and you're probably recouping the cost of rnd on the joysticks, but it's still way too expensive. Hope they drop the prices after they recoup the cost for the new tech
Okay let's say you got a regular ps5 controller, you end up with stick drift in one analog only, which happens fast with a regular duel sense, now you gotta spend $70 for a whole new controller, Now you have a duel sense edge you get stuck drift in one analog well now just spend $25 dollars and fixed you just saved $50
If you are a PC gamer and don't own a PS5, don't bother getting this. You cannot access any of the features, including remapping. There is no system or software in place to changing anything.
All for just $200 and only $20 extra every-time you have to change your sticks instead of providing magnetic sticks and for worst battery life than any other wireless controller, that being said you may as well call it a wired controller as if it’s 2002 with that horrendous battery life, once you’re wired up you can have your friend or family member trip over the wire and either pull the whole $500 system to the ground or your $200 and counting controller to the ground with the amazing wire locking mechanism that makes it the zero sense edge controller. No thank you, they can shove it.
Yeah but it’s meant for competitive gaming. Up close on a monitor, where you would have it plugged it. Not some dad who gets home from work looking to kill some time before he has to drop his kids off at his ex-wife’s house.
People keep complaining about the Battery life of the controller use the connection lead supplied it’s not just a chargin lead and USING IT CAN eliminates LAGG

How much do the batteries cost
@@iLLGetAlongWithYou around $15
what pro controller have you bought that's way more than $200
@@mmhoss battle beaver was one and it didn’t have half the features. All of them cost more than this. Better question is what pro controllers are cheaper?
@@yurpcrusher123good point because they’re all like 200 plus lol
I’ve got nerve damage in my hand which make doing things with my left hand difficult. Hoping this thing makes life easier. Already planned out which controls I’m switching out.
Just wonder if its durable is really better than xbox elite series 2 controller. If it actually is, I'll consider buying ps5 console and this controller to play fps games only
Was getting huge Mr Robot energy from the soundtrack in the background here 😢
The stick modules are 20 dollars a piece plus 5 dollars shopping. To replace both sticks is gonna be $45. That's insane sony. The components seem quality and reinforced, and you're probably recouping the cost of rnd on the joysticks, but it's still way too expensive. Hope they drop the prices after they recoup the cost for the new tech
Okay let's say you got a regular ps5 controller, you end up with stick drift in one analog only, which happens fast with a regular duel sense, now you gotta spend $70 for a whole new controller, Now you have a duel sense edge you get stuck drift in one analog well now just spend $25 dollars and fixed you just saved $50
everytime pewds posts a video my day gets better. honestly
Can you customize the back buttons to press two buttons at once? like L1+R1?
@Dragan can you show me any kind of proof?! Like… an article mention or if you personally have one. Wherever you got this info from. Thanks!
You can hook it up to PC right?
We needed more back paddles
2 is fine
@@KapinKrunch it is not fine with such price to have only 2 paddles.
@Aaron Mcroodle if you play games that require movement while aiming, then it isn't. Doom Eternal on a series 2 vs. this will be night and day.
If you are a PC gamer and don't own a PS5, don't bother getting this. You cannot access any of the features, including remapping. There is no system or software in place to changing anything.
Exactly, people should just get a hall effect controller anyways, this is literally garbage.
All for just $200 and only $20 extra every-time you have to change your sticks instead of providing magnetic sticks and for worst battery life than any other wireless controller, that being said you may as well call it a wired controller as if it’s 2002 with that horrendous battery life, once you’re wired up you can have your friend or family member trip over the wire and either pull the whole $500 system to the ground or your $200 and counting controller to the ground with the amazing wire locking mechanism that makes it the zero sense edge controller. No thank you, they can shove it.
You using Invisalign???
That price though...
@Demolition Ackowledge my cok
mans handles that controller like hes throwing up gang signs
Damn, that looks like a nice controller
$200
Nevermind
Right you can find PS4s for that in no world should a controller cost as much as a game system itself imo
@@J3RMR3DCORNthat's the technology among us
One of the best controllers EVER!
The Xbox elite is the G.O.A.T - I mean you can even make custom ones for not that expensive and they build and ship quickly
But you have to get an xbox 🥸
So it does what the Astro C40 did 5 years ago?
Apart from Battery life this looks great.
Yeah but it’s meant for competitive gaming. Up close on a monitor, where you would have it plugged it. Not some dad who gets home from work looking to kill some time before he has to drop his kids off at his ex-wife’s house.
@oajak-8609 sounds like you're down bad, sorry bud 😐
@@Ajak1033 fr why do most complaints sounds fitting for that
Who tf plays for 5+ hours anyways unless you’re a streamer and it’s your income
@@Ajak1033 who's the dad? You or ur dad? Hopefully dad is playing games with his kids, not by himself.
People keep complaining about the Battery life of the controller use the connection lead supplied it’s not just a chargin lead and USING IT CAN eliminates LAGG
I’ll take the dual sense edge over a scuf just bc the analog sticks replacement
No hall effect sensors itll keep getting stick drift
