I love mine. Aside from all the features mentioned in this video, something I really like about it is that with my bigger hands, my pinky fingers don't press against the squared off edge of the standard dualsense controller which caused me some discomfort. So the Edge feels WAY better based on that one change alone.
Actually got myself a Dualsense Edge (will have an unboxing video sometime tomorrow, but I've tried it shortly after recording the footage). A really solid controller, and it works surprisingly well on PC. You have to use DSX in order to set up profiles on PC (I don't own a PS5), but it works. I'm even using it on the XBox with a Mayflash Magic-X adapter!
Thank you for this great review. About the thumb stick not being tall enough, I used the same KontrolFreek I am used to on the Dualsense. Feels exactly the same, works like a charm.
I just decided it was worth the investment due to the replaceable sticks and the irritating stick drift issue along with more features. I use the DualSense for PS5 and PC as well (depending on genre) along with my PC38x headset for both.
I already try that, you can find a video on my channel to check how it look. I don't like taller thumbsticks, this that comes with Edge is to much for me 😂
I always just assumed people understood the concept. Maybe I need to do a video on thumbstick height and why it Matters Also, Xbox has a taller thumbstick than ps5. So they have a naturally built in advantage when comparing stock controller to stock controller
@@GearsAndTech Another cool idea to dive into is how different a concave vs convex vs hybrid style thumbstick grip changes things too. A convex type being a soft and larger radius makes changing direction quickly into a longer throw; whereas a concave or hybrid allows the thumb to roll edge to edge quickly as you cross the zero point.
I just got mine after pondering for a while. It's expensive but totally worth it if you're a gamer. The sensitivity is really something else it's hard to explain but a noticeable upgrade from the regular dual sense. I really like how easy it is to swap out the triggers and everything else. I still use the regular dual sense for regular games or heavier button mashing sports games I won't use my edge. Even the stick replacements are $20 bucks a pop, so it's definitely not for someone on a tighter budget and if you don't play first person shooters it's not worth it at all.
Accurate review i got controller and i agree with all points. They need to make better thumb sticks with better grip the ones that come with are too hard of a plastic
May I had when you use it you won’t wanna go back. I put old one my hand now and can not use. I mean I can obviously but feels to light and cheap lol I am spoiled. Just buy the extension GameStop for 19.99. I have one tall one short. It’s on my edge now I forgot name company it’s purple tho lol but they have all type of colors.
Love the Duel sense controller, mine got stick drift, but instead of buying the replacement cartridge, I bought 2 Potentiometer from Amazon for $4.00 and replaced the free wheels in the stick cartridge I already have, it was super easy, no more taking the entire stick apart, there’s a video on how to do it on TH-cam.
I think like him I really dont need. I only play madden . If I was shooter game maybe. The controller does feel better especially far as weight very good. Feeling in your hands very good. I never used pro controller so it’s hard for me to get use to the buttons on the back. Those short buttons are better than the long ones because when used longer ones I mistake hit it couple times. The short buttons in back no accidents and feel good just have to remember they back there.
With regard to the sticks...it makes sense to assume that Sony thinks the market for this controller is going to largely be people that are coming from a dual sense rather than having already heavily invested in a controller. So marinating that feel was probably more important than standard 3rd party high stick height. They could have provided the option tho. Hopefully they will sell higher sticks at some point
I did not even bother trying the other stick heights i just slapped my kontrol freeks on that i have bin using on ps4 then the ps5 en they fit the edge controler just the same placed over the base sticks coming out of the box for everyone used to playing with kontrol freeks don't panic like dude
The “Short Sticks” are the same height as Dual Sense sticks. I was hoping for something shorter. I’ve been using the Kontrol Freaks foam washers to help my lack of stick skills
In a word no! The grips have turned yellow, and before someone says it. I'm always washing my hands, I'm alittle old about it tbh. And the rubber has started to bubble and come away from the controller. 210 british pounds for this level of quality is a slap in the face!
Mines perfect after a year. Take better care of your stuff. You probably grip your controller to hard or maybe getting frustrated getting killed in cod or killed in elden ring. Lol
i got mine a couple of weeks ago . i am still having a blast . as an old gamer i missed the convex thumbsticks .feels great in every damn shooter actually every game . now about the price .. 69 bucks for a regular ds , 200 for this one . just like ps slim vs ps pro ... there is almost nothing this controller can do that a regular one cant without manipulation .. you want trigger stops , change your bumper config . you want convex high rise ? go buy some freeks . you want back pedals ? learn to play claw . but one thing stands out and that is replacable analog sticks .. i am just having a blast with mine . but if you are not a hardcore gamer and game long hours , you dont need this . about the battery life .. well since the introduction of charging cords , i almost never ever used any type of controller without a cord so i wouldnt know .
Ergonomics are not a negative. "Learn to play claw" or "change your bumper config" is fine to blurt out but in practice it's not for everyone. I need the paddles. I have never held my controller with my index fingers on the bumpers and middle fingers on the triggers. This is why I need the paddles for my main game, Rocket League, which uses a left and right mechanic. People remap that mechanic to L1 and R1, but I can't do that. When it's not on the RL profile, it'll be a profile where claw is something I could use if I was ever comfortable with it. X/Jump on right paddle, O/crouch/dodge on left, or □/reload on left. But I'm not and I'm not going to. Same logic applies to being miserable for weeks/months relearning bumpers as being shoot.
oh and control freaks work if you have an issue with the stick not being tall enough, but you have to get the XBOX 1 control freaks if you want it to be snug.
I watched a lot of your videos on PS5 controllers. I got the Edge mainly because I couldn't find the Besaviour. I got it easily on Playstation direct for around US $170.
I use my kontrol freeks on the original concave thumbstick. The "tall" thumbstick were too short for my liking. I hope they make taller ones. For now my Kontrol Freeks integrated naturally back to my muscle memory on aiming.
15:33 I still think $200 is a lot, considering that it's white plastic... it's not a sensible design choice for tropical third-world countries where I live. But I'll probably reconsider once they release --at least-- an all-black version 😋 Thanks for the video. Cheers.
you make good points, I've used a modded controller before and tried xbox elite but nothing gives me the comfort of the dualsense edge with half dome back buttons. I adjust pretty fast to analog sticks so I haven't had an issue with that either. I actually use the default ones, my main gripe is battery life and the fact the controller only comes in white but that's an EZ fix too
Definitely would like to know if installing the extremeRate thumbsticks is possible with each individual module for the Dualsense Edge. And if it is possible how easy is it to accomplish?
I just got the Edge within the last week and enjoying it so far. Agreed it does have a premium feel. Only hope it doesn't develop stick drift as soon as the standard one did. The standard controller developed stick drift would you believe just after 2 weeks of use.
@@baklash84 Not over reacting at all. Started drifting after 2 weeks as I said to the point it was pointless trying to play with it. Hence I bought the Edge. Same potentiometer crap but at least it would be easier to change the thumbstick module should drifting occur. Maybe I had gotten a bad standard one I dunno. It's been luck of the draw from what I gather of other users.
Yeah, I dunno. It doesn't seem that great. I bought a used Dualsense controller and put the RISE4 kit on it and it does all this plus 2 more buttons and can be mapped on the fly. I think Sony fell short on this and they're charging too much for it. I've _never_ had stick drift on any controller. It's not actually as common as some lead you to believe. $20 for a thumbstick is pretty ridiculous. They could've just used hall sticks and added 2 more rear buttons. And if you really want to have swappable sticks, you can buy em for a standard controller.
Ive used those on other controllers before It's a shame I need to spend $200 usd on a controller and then more money to fix an issue that shouldn't be an issue
Was inserted in this but 2 paddles is not quite Pro enough...but it's good to see $ony FINALLY release a '"Pro" level controller. I still love my Scuf Impact Pro for PS4 games, have the Reflex FPS but I just don't love it, it just don't feel right to me...
Hi since you play mostly FPS games, have you tried to take your R2 range from 0 to 1 on the duelsense edge? I was curious how responsive that would be compared to your clicky triggers on your diy nodded controller.
I'm not really I find myself using The half dome paddles more than the longer ones. I find them More Comfortable and they have the ease of no accidental Pressing on them. That's the only thing I hate the battery life is so annoying. And in my opinion. I really don't wanna be tied to The Wire why You may ask because a wire is a double edge sword one. It does offer you probably less Latency Or there is no difference between both but anybody casting by will trip If they don't see The Wire and since you have The lock thing on most likely your PS5 will given and it's gonna be the one that's going to fall To the ground and crash.
I think it's unreasonable to have a feature be that the Thumbsticks are swappable, and expect me to buy 3rd party ones to get the right height At that point why not use the regular dual sense for half the price and add the stick on trigger stops
I only recently got a PS5 after not having bought a console in ages. I'm mainly a PC gamer who uses an Xbox Elite 2 controller for a lot of PC games and while I love some of the features the Dual Sense has I wish Sony had taken note of the pro controllers that have been out for years like the Elite and others. Things like stick height/variety, number of paddles, and battery life (the Elite's battery life is outstanding and with all the haptics I wouldn't expect the Edge to do better but they could've at least made the Edge's battery life better than the original Dual Sense). I will still likely pick the controller up at some point but if it had had 4 paddles I would've bought it day 1 instead of putting it on my list of things to purchase at some point. Also, despite the rivalry between Sony and Xbox, I really do wish Sony would consider a controller with offset sticks as an option (that might be blashphemy to longtime Sony fanboys but as someone who is fairly neutral on the console side of things, I prefer how the Xbox Elite 2 controller feels in every way over the Dual Sense and feel like it's easier to do precision things with it (on the flipside I adore the mousepad button, haptics, and other features on the Dual Sense/Edge). Hopefully, when Sony does gen 2 for the Edge some more improvements will be made - stick height and 4 paddles would seem logical.
I hope they'd never do offset sticks ...I used to game a lot on xbox 360..and loved that control and hated the ps3 controller...but once I made the switch and got used to Playstations controller setup my aim improved ...its much less stress on hands. Because both of my thumbs are essentially together rather then spaced apart ...so I personally hope they'd never go that route
Old video but I stumbled upon it I’m debating between this and the scuf reflex fps You think it’s possible to remove the rumble packs? Not a fan of heavy controllers and loved my scuf on ps4 with them removed
Hi. Can you test this controller for Gran Turismo 7 ? I am curious Dualsense Edge also have a default dead zone like Standard PS5 Controller in game (Gran Turismo 7). So i mean if you put Dead Zone to 0 - 100 for Triggers in setting for Dualsense Edge, then still in the game GT7 is there a dead zone for throttle and brake , L2 R2 ? And also Full Throttle and Full Brake is at maximum when trigger is 100% pulled down in Gran Turismo 7 ?
In game deadzone is boss But if controller deadzone is set higher than in game deadzone then game won't get any trigger effect until after that So technically whichever deadzone is set higher wins
@@GearsAndTech So if Gran Turismo 7 has in game Dead Zone, then PS5 Dualsense Edge with Dead Zone - 0 will have that in game dead zone like basic PS5 Controller.
Hey, would you recommend this controller for someone who does not play competitive games like Warzone ? I mostly play single mode games(Elden Ring, the last of us…etc)
I would say yes. Games like the witcher 3 need you to take your finger off the movement stick to use potions and healing. With this, you could map those to the rear buttons and not lose movement.
I don't know about the Edge specifically but I use my Xbox Elite 2 on every PC game I play. It has 4 paddles rather than 2 but the general concept of having paddles on the back to help with certain things is the same. I played Elden Ring using my Elite and it felt great. Paddles take time to get used to and maybe even longer if you don't have a specific purpose in mind and are just doing general gaming but once you do get used to them it's hard to live without them. As much as I've enjoyed my PS5 and love some of the Dual Sense features, I miss my Elite when playing my pS5. I'm hoping the Edge will help with that. So while I don't think it's something you need, if you game a lot it will probably be something you enjoy once you get used to using the extra features.
I was about to order this controller but been reading many reviews saying the 'x' or 'o' buttons have been reported by many users to be lose and almost feels like they going to fall out....did you notice any issues with your controller?
Do you all have the same sensation as with the regular Dualsense? I just got my Edge a couple of days ago and while the X and O don’t feel like they’re falling apart, they definitely have less travel than the regular version. Kind of offering less resistance as well.
I have to disagree on the grip of the controller is actually smaller grips than the original one I had to add some kontrol freeks grips to make it similar to the original grips thickness
Question. So i play a lot of call of duty and have a problem with pressing down on the right stick which causes a Melee or drop shot if using tactical during gun fights. Can you remap the RS to do nothing? Lol
Hi. Can you test this controller for Gran Turismo 7 ? I am couriose Dualsense Edge also have a default dead zone in game (Gran Turismo 7). So i mean if you put Dead Zone to 0 in setting for Dualsense Edge, then still in the game GT7 is there a dead zone for throttle and brake , L2 R2 ?
The tallest sony thumbstick is perfect the one's you use are far to tall for me i actually use the kontrol freeks fps which are about the size of the tallest Edge One's which are perfect
Earlier today, I purchased a PS DualSense Edge controller. I have arthritis in my right hand so I'd like to remap the R2 to the right paddle. When I try I receive a message that R2 is assigned to multiple tasks so the remap will not work. Any suggestions?
Tried it and the damn right thumb stick still clicks loud as hell with the slightest movement. Why I need a $200 to annoy me when a $65 does the same thing.
If you buy this to use as mouse and keyboard replacement for your Mac, can you map the index trigger button to macro so you can have more buttons to do more things instead of the standard X, ∆,O,[] and R and L buttons? Can you use adaptive trigger on Mac games too?
@@GearsAndTech basically the motherboard it comes with. You know the part the Besavior connects to well the part that clips the ribbon the whole thing game off when I went to re open the remote
I just purchased one yesterday and come to find out the stick modules have been out of stock for months.. now im worndering was it even worth buying this if theres not stick modules available incase of emergency? .. ive checked everywhere and nothing ... for people that have owned this controller for over a year have you guys experienced this ? Or is this shortage something new . ?@@GearsAndTech
Buying new modules is not a solution for stick drift. They should just be built so they don't develop it.which is a technology that already exists. This is on of the most blatant forms of planned obsolescence.

you want convex high rise ? go buy some freeks .
you want back pedals ? learn to play claw .
but one thing stands out and that is replacable analog sticks .. i am just having a blast with mine . but if you are not a hardcore gamer and game long hours , you dont need this .
about the battery life .. well since the introduction of charging cords , i almost never ever used any type of controller without a cord so i wouldnt know .

It’s ok. I prefer my Battle Beaver mainly cause the extra back buttons and the stick tension. Can’t go back now.
I have a scuf ps5 controller and a PS5 Dualsense edge controller I like them both!
Great video and attention to detail.
Glad you enjoyed it
Definitely would like to know if installing the extremeRate thumbsticks is possible with each individual module for the Dualsense Edge. And if it is possible how easy is it to accomplish?
It's possible. But not easy. You need to cut open the casing of the shell with a knife
Why is there 2 be saviour controllers which 1 do I buy ?
But the prebuilt
One is white. One is black.
I like that blue one you got. It looks clean Af. You have any videos on how you build that one 😊? 🤔

i use the wings i like them more.
batery is the same 1500 on sens and sens edge. label dosnt lie
I just got the Edge within the last week and enjoying it so far. Agreed it does have a premium feel.
Only hope it doesn't develop stick drift as soon as the standard one did. The standard controller developed stick drift would you believe just after 2 weeks of use.
You’re over reacting, I’ve had mine for months and no drift on original controller. You might have a defected one.
@@baklash84 Not over reacting at all. Started drifting after 2 weeks as I said to the point it was pointless trying to play with it. Hence I bought the Edge. Same potentiometer crap but at least it would be easier to change the thumbstick module should drifting occur.
Maybe I had gotten a bad standard one I dunno. It's been luck of the draw from what I gather of other users.
Couldn't you just attach a control freak high rise on top of thw right thumb stick for more height? Thats what i do on my regular dualshock
Please please please show how to use / set up the Besavior with the Titan Two - please 🙏
Can you map the back buttons to right analog stick movements ?
I dont think it lets you do that. I never tried, but I doubt it
Yeah, I dunno. It doesn't seem that great. I bought a used Dualsense controller and put the RISE4 kit on it and it does all this plus 2 more buttons and can be mapped on the fly. I think Sony fell short on this and they're charging too much for it.
I've _never_ had stick drift on any controller. It's not actually as common as some lead you to believe. $20 for a thumbstick is pretty ridiculous. They could've just used hall sticks and added 2 more rear buttons.
And if you really want to have swappable sticks, you can buy em for a standard controller.
Bro kontrol freaks from Temu or Ali express like how don’t u have them
I have them, I don't like them
Shame no easily removed battery pack
I love this controller.
The analog sensitivity can be adjusted? I play some games with the camera sensitivity all the way up. And it still feels stiff. This can be adjusted?
I don't think sensitivity can be changed. Just min and max deadzone
Try using kontrolfreeks high rise stick on the regular size thumb stick and should solve your problem 😊
Ive used those on other controllers before
It's a shame I need to spend $200 usd on a controller and then more money to fix an issue that shouldn't be an issue
Was inserted in this but 2 paddles is not quite Pro enough...but it's good to see $ony FINALLY release a '"Pro" level controller. I still love my Scuf Impact Pro for PS4 games, have the Reflex FPS but I just don't love it, it just don't feel right to me...
I agree
Instead of tearing apart the moduel you can use KontrolFreeks
For sure. But I never really liked the feel of the control freaks
Hi since you play mostly FPS games, have you tried to take your R2 range from 0 to 1 on the duelsense edge? I was curious how responsive that would be compared to your clicky triggers on your diy nodded controller.
It's not the same as clicky triggers
the thing about this controller is it leaves room for better joysticks.
I'm not really I find myself using The half dome paddles more than the longer ones. I find them More Comfortable and they have the ease of no accidental Pressing on them.
That's the only thing I hate the battery life is so annoying. And in my opinion. I really don't wanna be tied to The Wire why You may ask because a wire is a double edge sword one. It does offer you probably less Latency Or there is no difference between both but anybody casting by will trip If they don't see The Wire and since you have The lock thing on most likely your PS5 will given and it's gonna be the one that's going to fall To the ground and crash.
You could leave it with the normal thumb stick and buy some tall KontrolFreak
I wonder what these cost to make
In first person shooter games can't you use L2 to aim as is used in the majority of other games?
Okay, so you Head to sleep with the grandmother to buy. But. is it's still worth it 17mins to get to the point
Good luck finding one.
There already is battery life extenders out there on Amazon
Figures.
Had me interested until talked bout thumbsticks why would I get used to daft sticks that come with? Been using Kontrol freaks 4ever and they fit
I think it's unreasonable to have a feature be that the Thumbsticks are swappable, and expect me to buy 3rd party ones to get the right height
At that point why not use the regular dual sense for half the price and add the stick on trigger stops
I only recently got a PS5 after not having bought a console in ages. I'm mainly a PC gamer who uses an Xbox Elite 2 controller for a lot of PC games and while I love some of the features the Dual Sense has I wish Sony had taken note of the pro controllers that have been out for years like the Elite and others. Things like stick height/variety, number of paddles, and battery life (the Elite's battery life is outstanding and with all the haptics I wouldn't expect the Edge to do better but they could've at least made the Edge's battery life better than the original Dual Sense). I will still likely pick the controller up at some point but if it had had 4 paddles I would've bought it day 1 instead of putting it on my list of things to purchase at some point. Also, despite the rivalry between Sony and Xbox, I really do wish Sony would consider a controller with offset sticks as an option (that might be blashphemy to longtime Sony fanboys but as someone who is fairly neutral on the console side of things, I prefer how the Xbox Elite 2 controller feels in every way over the Dual Sense and feel like it's easier to do precision things with it (on the flipside I adore the mousepad button, haptics, and other features on the Dual Sense/Edge). Hopefully, when Sony does gen 2 for the Edge some more improvements will be made - stick height and 4 paddles would seem logical.
I hope they'd never do offset sticks ...I used to game a lot on xbox 360..and loved that control and hated the ps3 controller...but once I made the switch and got used to Playstations controller setup my aim improved ...its much less stress on hands.
Because both of my thumbs are essentially together rather then spaced apart ...so I personally hope they'd never go that route
Nacon revolution 5 pro
Old video but I stumbled upon it I’m debating between this and the scuf reflex fps
You think it’s possible to remove the rumble packs? Not a fan of heavy controllers and loved my scuf on ps4 with them removed
Yes. You could remove them
I use the bottom you don't like , but l like it s give me great Aim
Hi. Can you test this controller for Gran Turismo 7 ? I am curious Dualsense Edge also have a default dead zone like Standard PS5 Controller in game (Gran Turismo 7). So i mean if you put Dead Zone to 0 - 100 for Triggers in setting for Dualsense Edge, then still in the game GT7 is there a dead zone for throttle and brake , L2 R2 ? And also Full Throttle and Full Brake is at maximum when trigger is 100% pulled down in Gran Turismo 7 ?
In game deadzone is boss
But if controller deadzone is set higher than in game deadzone then game won't get any trigger effect until after that
So technically whichever deadzone is set higher wins
@@GearsAndTech So if Gran Turismo 7 has in game Dead Zone, then PS5 Dualsense Edge with Dead Zone - 0 will have that in game dead zone like basic PS5 Controller.
How is it possible that a person who likes video games have never heard of kontrol freeks?
Who hasn't heard of kontrol freaks?
hi bro are you still using it? have you done stick drift test? i bought it too but when i shoot deadzone 0 while playing cod, there is a little drift
I usually run deadzone at 1
No drift issues
Does the dual sense edge still require a third party app to use it on PC?
Yes
Can you Test the Razer wolverine v2 Pro white the besavior and the cronus zen
Hey, would you recommend this controller for someone who does not play competitive games like Warzone ?
I mostly play single mode games(Elden Ring, the last of us…etc)
I'm not sure what the point would be to use this for experiential games. Regular dual sense would work fine in that case
I would say yes. Games like the witcher 3 need you to take your finger off the movement stick to use potions and healing. With this, you could map those to the rear buttons and not lose movement.
I don't know about the Edge specifically but I use my Xbox Elite 2 on every PC game I play. It has 4 paddles rather than 2 but the general concept of having paddles on the back to help with certain things is the same. I played Elden Ring using my Elite and it felt great. Paddles take time to get used to and maybe even longer if you don't have a specific purpose in mind and are just doing general gaming but once you do get used to them it's hard to live without them. As much as I've enjoyed my PS5 and love some of the Dual Sense features, I miss my Elite when playing my pS5. I'm hoping the Edge will help with that. So while I don't think it's something you need, if you game a lot it will probably be something you enjoy once you get used to using the extra features.
So if you don't want to use those profiles of dynamic precise steady etc, you just want it like your old controller, do you just leave it on default?
Yep. Default will do it for you
@@GearsAndTech Ok thanks!
I was about to order this controller but been reading many reviews saying the 'x' or 'o' buttons have been reported by many users to be lose and almost feels like they going to fall out....did you notice any issues with your controller?
I didn't notice that issue at all
I've had that issue. I'm considering asking for a replacement, because this price point leaves little room for error, imo
@@GearsAndTech Thanks for replying, I think I will place my order for it soon soon
No problem with mine
Do you all have the same sensation as with the regular Dualsense? I just got my Edge a couple of days ago and while the X and O don’t feel like they’re falling apart, they definitely have less travel than the regular version. Kind of offering less resistance as well.
I have to disagree on the grip of the controller is actually smaller grips than the original one I had to add some kontrol freeks grips to make it similar to the original grips thickness
Interesting idea. I didn't notice that problem
Question. So i play a lot of call of duty and have a problem with pressing down on the right stick which causes a Melee or drop shot if using tactical during gun fights. Can you remap the RS to do nothing? Lol
I haven't seen that option on any controller yet
could u not get other thumb sticks or will others not work
They have a proprietary click system that they attach with. So other brands won't fit on it
Hi. Can you test this controller for Gran Turismo 7 ? I am couriose Dualsense Edge also have a default dead zone in game (Gran Turismo 7). So i mean if you put Dead Zone to 0 in setting for Dualsense Edge, then still in the game GT7 is there a dead zone for throttle and brake , L2 R2 ?
if you mess with in game deadzone, and controller deadzone whichever setting is more aggressive will be the one that works.
@@GearsAndTech So what ? I will have dead zone in the game still if i set to 0 in settings ?
best controller for fifa 2023
The tallest sony thumbstick is perfect the one's you use are far to tall for me i actually use the kontrol freeks fps which are about the size of the tallest Edge One's which are perfect
What buttons do you bind to the paddles for apex?
I play cod mostly
I bind x to the lower right paddle
O to the lower left paddle
When I have a 4 paddle controller I make the upper left be square
Earlier today, I purchased a PS DualSense Edge controller. I have arthritis in my right hand so I'd like to remap the R2 to the right paddle. When I try I receive a message that R2 is assigned to multiple tasks so the remap will not work. Any suggestions?
Try a factory reset and try again?
@@GearsAndTech Not sure what I did different but this time it worked. Thanks for your time & help.
Waiting for mine to come in. What game is that at the 14:19 mark?
Not sure. It's random b roll my editor used when putting the video together
Is there a way in the software to add a turbo button?
No
Tried it and the damn right thumb stick still clicks loud as hell with the slightest movement. Why I need a $200 to annoy me when a $65 does the same thing.
If you buy this to use as mouse and keyboard replacement for your Mac, can you map the index trigger button to macro so you can have more buttons to do more things instead of the standard X, ∆,O,[] and R and L buttons? Can you use adaptive trigger on Mac games too?
Adaptive triggers only work on Ps5
14:18 what game is that?
I’m returning mine. Not that special at least for me
its even easier on pc to set it up
Have a USB-C charging cable just to the right of my chair. So I hope I could use that instead of the one on the PS5 because the PS5 is too far away.
You would just need a usbc to usbc cable and will be fine. It doesn't need to be plugged into the ps5 to charher
I charge mine via a plug on my sofa. Works just fine.
I wish the beloader team would email me back to get a replacement part from my Besavior diy kit been waiting 3 weeks now 😣
Which part are you looking for?
I need a new face button ribbon cable
@@GearsAndTech basically the motherboard it comes with. You know the part the Besavior connects to well the part that clips the ribbon the whole thing game off when I went to re open the remote
Oh. That's sucks
How good can the controller be when Sony makes it almost impossible to actually buy one
It's so good there is no supply. Too much demand
I just purchased one yesterday and come to find out the stick modules have been out of stock for months.. now im worndering was it even worth buying this if theres not stick modules available incase of emergency? .. ive checked everywhere and nothing ... for people that have owned this controller for over a year have you guys experienced this ? Or is this shortage something new . ?@@GearsAndTech
victrix pro bfg Vs Dualsense Edge ?
Yep. Already filmed and will be out next weekend.
Too many controllers to review right now. Lots of videos in The pipeline.
Technically the besavior is $200 if you factor in there shipping so the only reason the besavior is worth buying is for the cronus zen
Man never hurd of kontrol freeks?
I have. I don't like them. And shouldn't need to use them on such an expensive controller
Buying new modules is not a solution for stick drift. They should just be built so they don't develop it.which is a technology that already exists. This is on of the most blatant forms of planned obsolescence.
No, just makes it easy to replace them
