Sony Edge Pro Controller Review-1st Party 2 Rear Button Gamechanger?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 มิ.ย. 2024
- 7 years after Microsoft, Sony has released a 1st party premium controller, the Dualsense Edge. Rather than installing magnetic hall effect thumbstick modules, Sony will take the $20 disposable route. Rather than 4 rear buttons, Sony has 2 very unique half domes which can be swapped out for traditional paddles known as lever backs.

The building anticipation for the removable thumbstick module section has me on the edge of my seat
Don't fall off. 🤣 Glad to have you watching brother.
Gulikit is making a module for it that is hall effect so it won't ever drift, don't buy the Sony modules
Thank you so much for making this type of content. I don’t think there’s anybody else making reviews with as much quality and detail as you do. Thank you for helping gamers make the right choice!
Based!
the only content creator i go to for controller reviews. once again im blown away by the in-depth teardown of this much anticipated controller. looking for to hear your thoughts after you put in some hours. keep up the great work!
Appreciate the great indepth review as always man. Awesome work! Long video but not a dull moment. Looking forward to any update videos down the road when Sony or other folks make any other thumbstick modules and when/if the PC customization comes online.
Thanks man
Incredible review my man. You are officially my go to guy for controller reviews from now on. Subbed!
Much appreciated!
Hey man love the work you put in for all you're videos. And the great vibes you give you're viewers undoubtedly,
I read that framed quote in the background at 9:26. I really needed to hear that, its the small things in life that hit you the hardest.
thank you man honestly
It’s always a great day when Gamer Heaven uploads, your humor combined with exceptional, unbiased review quality have made this one of my favorite channels. Yet another great review. Cheers.
Great review, man. A whole lot better than the guys who put out reviews without really playing with the controller.
Great rundown; I’m new to all this shenanigans and this information was just what I needed. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Got the edge and love it…, it’s solid and got me back playing games after 30years - shame it’s a 2 rear button - look forward to the upgrade. Again, love the channel it’s got to be the best content out there. Much appreciated. 🙌🏻
Awesome review🥳👌🏼 keep up the good work🙌🏼
Bro this video is so entertaining and so informative. I just subbed !
Quality of your videos are always top notch.
The most enjoyable most entertaining controller reviewer !!!!!! Awsome work my brother !!!!!
Your reviews are amazing thank you for all your hard work 🙏
My pleasure
Excellent review as always, thanks big dog!
Thanks man, I was hoping you would get to see this before it went public. I’m glad you liked it.
Great review. This channel is great, proper and decent review of controllers, peripherals, tear downs, internal explanations. YOU should have a million subs. Hope you get them as soon as possible.
Thank you so much for this comment, that is really encouraging. The channel is on track to have around 150K by the end of this year, and I would genuinely be so grateful for that.
@@GamerHeavenOfficial Here are the things that I like about this channel that made me subscribe and I will tell this to my buddies as well, we are a bunch of gaming dads.
1. Detailed explanation of the controller
2. Complete tear downs and comparisons of the previous models of a controller or peripherals
3. A true Pros and Cons of the controllers, no holding back
4. Bringing up the issues and strengths of the controllers and peripherals.
5. Properly tested BEFORE posting a review of the said or featured controller. It may take time I know but it's better to do it that way than to rush it for the views and whatnot.
Rarely I see channels that do this especially in this time and age where most people's attention can be counted in micro seconds unless it has some eye candy on it and I know you know what I mean about it, and thank goodness I found this channel. Keep up the good work bud.
@@retrodoodmanx7161 Me too - for the exact same reasons that you mentioned.
@@GamerHeavenOfficial The way the TH-cam algorithm and network effects in general work, means that you will very quickly reach 1 mio subs as soon as you break 100k+ subs. The number of subs and views will then grow exponentially.
Yes finally! I was wondering when you were gonna upload this video lol
I really enjoyed this review. You got a new sub. Also you have a nice setup. keep up the awesome job.
Great video as always!
Glad I found your videos, very informative, thank you
Funny, entertaining, and very informative while keeping is interested and you explain things perfectly for me. Thank you 😊 Im so excited to get the Dualsense Edge hopefully this Wednesday and then the PS5 Officially in a couple/few weeks!!! So excited eeee. Im hoping so bad nothing bad happens 😕
Best controller I ever used I'm getting another everything feels good the weight the buttons the controller is gorgeous
I appreciate the seconds long mini skit/jokes you spread throughout your reviews whether it's just a picture of you being locked in a torture chamber interrogated for more information on upcoming releases or you in full doctors garb answering a offscreen voice. They are just long enough to keep the video from becoming a slog of information like other videos that just read spec sheets and they are short enough to not draw away from the multitude of information you give on the products being reviewed which is probably what everyone is here for. Great review thanks for being awesome.
Good video, mate. I prefer longer reviews. Covered most of everything, so well done. Subscribed 👍🏼. Regarding the battery, it’s 30% smaller than the stock dualsense controller, hence the shorter battery life.
Best damn controller reviews on TH-cam man.
Watched the whole 45 min vid. Good vid my guy.
Mine just came in the mail today and it's beautiful.
Hands down the best gaming gear channel. Keep ‘em coming bro as well as all the smarcassm.
Thanks Gavin
ONLY REVIEW EVER NEEDED!
This is an amazing review. And funny too.
Thank you
Love your videos man, you have been my go-to for controller reviews. I got my dual sense 4 days ago and I'm enjoying it. One thing I wish you would have mentioned during your ergonomics/comfort segment is how they changed the design of the handle grips from having a flat edge on the inner grip to rounded. That was a huge bonus in comfort for me. As someone with larger hands, I always found my pinkies digging into that flat edge when I grip my dual sense.
Thank you, and good point 😊
I would literally pay you to help set up all my profiles for each game lol This video def made me sub! Love your humor :)
Best reviews on the INTERNET!
boy was i waiting for this review, watched other vids but they just weren't tickling my pickle like this one Kevin
😂 thanks, I guess
I got started with two different Elite Xbox controllers. They were okay, not bad.
Then a year ago I switched to the PS5. I bought a nagashok controller, and aim controller, an evil controller, and just recently I bought the Scuf reflex controller. I also just did the kickstarter for the new aimcon Ultimate. Can't wait to see it, see I almost have as many controllers as you now thanks to you! Great video
The controller goat with another great review. I’m still gonna wait to see how the Victrix fairs out in comparison.
Thanks Darren. I’m super excited for the Victrix
Love your work🥳
I love the in depth reviews and don’t really mind watching multiple of them but it would be cool if you did maybe a top 5 video for ps5, Xbox controllers, etc and why. You could hit the basic stand out features for each controller and still link the in depth videos for us to do more in depth research on specific ones without having to scroll and what not. Not super necessary but it would be cool
Excellent review! So far I’m happy with my Edge but I’m happy you brought up the odor from the case, it’s smells like chemical death. I left it outside on the porch to air out, still smells but looks beautiful. 🤷🏻♂️
I see a lot of people who review or collect controllers say they never experience stick drift, and therefore dismiss it as something that doesn't happen.
The thing is that it usually only happens after extended use, such as using it every day for months/ years, for a total of several hundreds/ sometimes even thousands of hours.
Most consumers get one controller, then use that one until it breaks. Many people play games almost every day, making racking up a several hundred hours on a single controller into a process that doesn't take very long.
Meanwhile, reviewers and people with multiple controllers tend to swap out controllers, meaning each individual controller is used less frequently and therefore gets less total play time, making it much less likely to develop issues within the same time span. I am glad to see you acknowledge analog stick drift as the widespread issue it is, and mention it in almost every single review.
As usual, an amazing review! Pretty disappointing that there are only 2 back domes/paddles.
I’ve only ever used 2 (scuf, strikepack and C40) so im fine with it. The controller is gorgeous
You don't need 4 on this controller it's 🔥🔥 the way it is, it's changed my games soo much 👍
Theres 4 on pc with ds4windows. Support was added for the Fn buttons in front of the joysticks. + the touchpad (lef/right/up/right+left), it makes for alot of buttons.
Respect for that Echo helmet brother 🫡 great vid,
Great review
Wowee, I feel like I just bumped into the controller guru. Man knows his ish like no other I've seen before.
I forgot I pre-ordered this month ago. Got a call today saying they have had it for a while so I picked it up. I use an aim controller V3 remapping controller with mouse click triggers for the likes of warzone and Fortnite. I have to say im in love with the edge. The premium feel is unreal. For me tho I'll use my Aim controller strictly for warzone cos the mouse click triggers are much better then what's on the edge. The edge profiles for different layouts are amazing. Something I wish Aim had. Edge is replacing my standard controller for sure. Paid 160 for the edge so definitely do not regret it for that price. Love the channel ❤️
I’m loving this roller
Great video. The wit is on point. Lol
Got the eswapX a couple months ago , favorite controller hands down
Ps5?
that controller is great!!! i was hoping too for 4 back buttons, I own a BattleBeaver, but for some games i'm good with only 2
Did you know that you can switch sides for the paddles?? they align like the Scuf back paddle on PS4 controllers and it feels a bit better actually!!
Man… I was waiting for the input lag results for so long 😢 anyway great video! 33:18
Amazing review. Loving the controller. Quick random question. Where did you get the ace of spades? It’s smoking hot.
You’re back 🐐.
This controller looks lush! BUT it should've had 4 back buttons. Theyre removable, if you wanted just 2 they could've let you remove 2 like the current paddles
There's almost no better smell than new electronics, especially the original nes games lol. Great video like always!
I've gotten curious about the different pro controllers (for PS5) for the first time and found your videos to be really helpful!
In the online shop I usually use, there aren't so many options to choose from though (we don't have Amazon support in Switzerland, due to some laws..)
One of them however is a pro controller from Rocket Games. I thought it was odd that I couldn't find you mention them in any videos, as they are quite present in the shop I use, only to find out that it's actually a Swiss brand and unfortunately they currently only ship to europe - but they do have an affiliate programm, with which you might get access to one? Would be awesome to have some actual nice reviews, rather than the sloppy German ones I've seen so far :)
Love the content. Please review the DSX app in steam in combination with the Dual sense edge. The app allows haptic feedback on triggers & paddle, function key customization.
Will do my friend, and I’m glad you like 👍🏼
I still have to pump more hours of usage into my DualSense Edge, but I love it so far. Those half-dome buttons feel great for manual driving in GT7. My standards were high considering that I own the Halo Infinite Elite Series 2 and absolutely love that controller. The Edge just takes my favorite main game controller, the DualSense, and amps it up x💯…aside from that battery life. I still have to put it through its paces, but I’m impressed so far. Great and comprehensive review as always. Best one on TH-cam.
This guy loves to yap… and I’m here for it 🤘🏻
I can't live without 4 paddles/buttons anymore
The only reason I haven’t bought yet is my fears that PC-only users may be left behind in terms of the software / customizability (I don’t own any consoles). I bought a regular PS5 DualSense back in December as a decade+ Xbox-only user and it’s my new all time fav controller. A premium model is certainly in my near future, be it the Edge or one of the custom builders or an Extremerate Clicky switch and back button kit whenever the BDM-030 variants release. I run a tall + short KontrolFreeks pair which were game changers so I’m super glad to hear they fit great!
i really love this channel 😂
The only video that mattered this week.
I've really enjoyed the controller so far. I really liked the PS4 back button attachment as it allowed me to easily map those to L3 and R3. Do you have a video or recommend video that goes over recommended controller settings for different games? (Apex, Fortnite, Racing, Fighting, etc)
Anticipated and loved the review. I want one and will have my peepers on the prowl for Hall effect replacements.
I had a question though. Why you no proc momento mori with new fancy paddler? I see Ace. Y I no see testing Ace and $200 paddler?
2 things, that battery life long term.. and the future thumbstick modules designs, we're gonna need the "weighted" or resistance thumbsticks 🤞
Been waiting on this video
Since I’m almost exclusively a PC gamer the only thing that would move me to buy this would be complete haptic feedback support in any and all titles that have the same functionality as on the console. Would be nice to see more multiplat games support it too but that again is for Sony to pursue.
.....I mean its on the Hand of the Multiplattform Developers to use HaptikFeedBack in the Games ?The Controller Works better on Steam than on my old PS4 ?
First of all I love that you always test with control freaks and 1000 polling rate on pc. This controller is PERFECT to me as I only play single player games on PS5 and I can't play without paddles so my PS5 has collected dust in 2 years. I love haptic feedback and adaptive triggers for immersion
I will use my beloved duelshock 4 + back button attachment on pc. I love that controller. It's so much better when it's overclocked there is a clear difference to me.
Ghost Of Thushima on brutal is one of my best gaming experiences only because of the back buttons for dodge and staggering + in game sens on the highest. Love this channel
What do you mean by "overclocked" and how do you overclock the gamepad?
@@HK_on_YT software on pc there change the polling rate to 1000 from 250
damn nice ace of spades!😍 12:52
Underrated channel.
Idk if you’ll see this but with DSX you can actually use the FN buttons and map to anything!
Love this review lol
I need a controller for ps5 and would like the aim controller but can't afford it . 😥 Great review luv that you got all into everything and completely detailed . Don't see that in other people's reviews. Keep up the good work......
Best hardware reviewer and most entertaining.
Hopefully third party controller makers (aim, scuf, hex, battle beaver) will make a version of their own with the dual edge (since most are usually using the same og dual sense controller and customise some more) for the coming months. It would be the best for all. 4 buttons/triggers at the back, and swappable sticks on the front. That would be epic!
ExtremeRate is probably going to release a mod (which is much cheaper than purchasing a modded gamepad from the modders you mentioned) since ExtremeRate already did that for the original DualSense gamepad and other first party gamepads.
Would you really want to pay $300 or more for a controller ?
Would you be able to review the thrustmaster eswap x when the wheel module comes out? I'm super curious about that one. Plus the edge could add different modules too like thrustmaster. Thanks a bunch! Love your stuff!
It’s actually being shipped to me from Thrustmaster. They saw the ESWAP review and asked if I wanted to review the forza racing wheel controller
@@GamerHeavenOfficial can't wait for that. Had my eye on that forza one.
A good idea too is to swap right stick with left when you get drift because it probably wont have as bad drift
Great video.
Thank you
Been playing with my new one. Love the look, love the small rubber placement where the pads of your fingers lay, which give you a little grip without making your hands sweaty. Like that they have the original thumbtacks which remain my favorites on the market. Thought the paddles were a little loosey goosey. Would've liked them to be a tad tighter, and require a little more actuation force. Solid effort. Didn't blow my socks off but very good. I also wasn't able to get the Edge working on my PC. Hoping I can sort that out.
I think you need to do a firmware update first to be able to use the DualSense Edge on a PC, which you are supposed to be able to do via a PC (if not yet, then definitely after installing the firmware update via the PS5 once).
If there is no firmware update yet, then you could try connecting it to a USB adapter via Bluetooth like the one by 8BitDo or Mayflash since they make all supported controllers work with PC, Nintendo Switch, and other consoles.
The Mayflash MAGIC-NS 2 or Mayflash Ultimate can add Turbo mode to any supported controller with the most recent firmware update, and the 8BitDo USB Wireless Adapter 2 adds support for the 8BitDo Ultimate Software, which allows to remap all buttons; add macros; adjust the stick sensitivity, trigger sensitivity and vibration; and swap the left thumbstick with the D-pad, which is useful for some games.
Hello, new here.. I love your background! Definitely would love to see a setup video.
Welcome, thank you a full tour is coming soon
My new favorite channel
@Gamer Heaven Hey, if you download DSX on Steam, it allows you to program/remap the buttons on the DS Edge. It also allows you to program the FUNCTION buttons and turn them into usable buttons. I have X and O programmed to the back 2 buttons and square and triangle programmed to the function buttons. And yes, it works, I am using it as we speak.
Sweet! Can you change the polling rate as well?
Also, are you using it wired on PC or via Bluetooth?
@Mr. Charizard I'm using it bluetooth (wirelessly). But pretty sure it works wired too. I'm not sure what "polling" is. But I would assume. DSX had a TON of options, changing led color, changing mic. Light to pulse instead of solid. All sorts of things.
@Mr. Charizard it was $4.99 for the DSX app in Steam. I'm glad I bought the app, and I'm glad I got the controller. You do NOT need a PS5 to update/configure the buttons. Good luck and have fun. It's a great controller.
^
Great review! Ive just ordered mine today! I have a question, can you set the thumb stick R3/L3 to do nothing and remap those inputs to the back button/paddles? I play alot of COD and I make alot of accidental R3 presses which melees and it costs me alot of gun fight. I have looked at the obvious profile switches and I find it uncomfortable. I actually ended up assigning the r3/l3 buttons to tac sprint and use killstreak/pinwheel. Basically I burn killstreaks before I get into fights so I dont have anything to click! The struggle is real lol! I just want to be able to turnoff the function of those buttons and soending $300.00 to do it will give me peace at last lol
Another very helpful review 👍👍 I am considering this controller as I have recently started playing cod and other fps games. Do you think this would help my gameplay? I mean the dead zone adjustments must help?
You should test if aftermarket button mods for the base PS5 controller work. I'd assume the mechanical face button mod won't work, but the split D-Pad mod would probably fit.
The 2 back button is the reason I stick with the Xbox controller for PC and the Extremerate 4-button mod for PS5. Maybe Sony listens and gets a Series 2 controller in the future.
I have a hex dualsense with 4 paddles and just grabbed the edge for single player games. The edge feels amazing just like the elite series 2 it just needs the 4 paddles and I've never look back
It would be so nice to have the rear dome AND paddles as 4 back buttons
Wouldnt work, would have to be 4 paddles or 4 flat buttons. The domes stick out and would block the button beneath them. I wonder if they’ll do a new one with 4 buttons
yes i am getting me a Sony Edge Controller in a few days!
Great memes made the review more enjoyable lol
Could you look in to the extra click in the L2 R2 buttons in the shortest trigger stops? Seems to be a growing issue. Mine has this too.
Fantastic video, I was using it most of last night, it's really good, feels good in the hand, triggers and thumb sticks are nice, ran out of battery with everything on was (5hr 20 minutes) then had to get my normal DS 😭, the battery life for the 200 pricetag is bad, I'd have to keep it plugged in for anything longer or turn things down for extra life, kinda sucks, other than that it's not bad i like it, wouldn't mind different colours tho they'll probably do that at some point.
One thing i dont think you give to much credit too. is the fact that the trigger stops may still have to much lee way but can easily be remedied with sonys profile and shrinking the trigger deadzone so you get full actuation much sooner
I received mine last, played for a few hours and just returned it this morning. The trigger stops only work for the lower bumpers and not the top ones. The controller is noticeably heavier, the back paddles have a faster response time than the bumpers when remapped.
was waiting for this! Even though I prefer 4 rear paddles to smack...
at 23:05, the rest analog sticks position is at 0.00392, which is the one of hall effect analog modules, are you sure these are potentiometer ones?
@Gamer Heaven I am looking to get 0.00 deadzones for call of duty. I see here in your test it looks like this controller get to 0.00002 I think that’s really good or close enough to what I want. So my question is does this controller run at 0.00 deadzone and when it wears out u buy a new module? Question 2 is. Im building a ps5 dualsense mouse click face buttons triggers whole kit and the Bdm-30. Also the rise4 bdm-30 remap kit. I cant seem to get the bdm-30 controller though. Is there a way to buy a ps5 dualsense and know that your getting a Bdm-30?
For people that own the sony inzone H7/H9. Set the slider of the dongle to PC. Now you can adjust the volume/chatmix and mute from the edge controller.
I'm fine with everything, except the lazy directional. Glad the sticks are really easy to swap and allow future upgrades.
What a review! Favorite part was the Razer dying 😂
I’m on the fence about the Edge. It feels bulkier, heavier n not as responsive as the Dualsense. It also doesn’t work wired with the wingman xb so that’s another thing for me.
Been putting in a good amount of time with the DS Edge since getting it, build quality is amazing, the half domes are surprisingly good and have quickly become my go to, the software customization is sweet and the swift profile switching with very satisfying vibration feedback is a plus, swappable stick modules are good but future hall effect variants will be fantastic.
Now the one thing i really don't like about this controller is the battery life, I'm getting about 5 hours before the battery low notification and about 2 hours (then some) before it completely goes adios.
With that said i don't regret getting the Edge, i think Sony knocked it outta the park with this iteration into the pro controller scene for Playstation and it's only going to get better from here.
So ya you had a choice here. So would you have preferred the controller to be larger with better battery or the way they did it now. Keep the size the same but less battery. But changing the controller size I think is worse. It makes going back and forth if ever change how the controller feels and I think that would be a bad idea.
@@xShinobiXx I definitely agree, making it bigger ain't the way to go, the Dualsense architecture is perfect the way it is. I'm sure in the future they'll have a workaround the battery issue, don't mind it if they make it slightly heavier!
@@HowardKat ya but if the battery is bigger they would need to make the controller bigger. That’s the issue. Just got it in the mail. Did the set up. Holy smokes this controller is AMAZING! The dome back buttons are the best. It’s so slick. And you can map any button anywhere. I so needed this lol
@@xShinobiXx hahaha niceeee! Enjoy it, it's a pretty good controller!
@@HowardKat ah thanks man. So pumped. This is actually really good. The trigger stops work really nice. Controller is solid. Way better than the regular one. And the dome paddles are just godly. I prefer it over the lever. Now I can go back and play all my favourite games all over again. I’ve been needing this because how games have jump or run always on the X or O button.
Cheers. Enjoy it. Sick controller
