  • @HenrikMyrhaug

    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.

    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.

    WARNING: So, it hasn't even been out for a month yet, and I've already found a big DESIGN FLAW with the Edge's back buttons. I'm not saying don't buy one. I just want to give people a heads up. About a week ago I started having trouble with my RB paddle/'leverback'. It had suddenly slid over so the end of the paddle was too close to the hand grip shell, so pressing it wouldn't always activate the button. I found I could slide the black plastic part that holds the paddle or half dome back and forth on that side. Long story short, that piece has a very thin hinge post on each side of it that then fits into a tiny white (teflon/nylon?) sleeve/bushing. One of the posts had just sheared right off, letting the part move around too much. I managed to still use it by swapping to the half dome on it until I could open it up to see if I could fix it. I could've just sent it back to Sony since it's obviously under warranty. But I wanted to get in there and look so I could spread the word. I did, just today, manage to get it apart, see the problem, and managed to super glue the post back on. That has worked so far, but it hasn't really been stress tested yet. My guess is that it won't last long. I'm about to go play CoD, so we'll see. The stupid thing about this is the problem is because it's over-engineered. The little white sleeves are almost pointless. They're not cylindrical and they have little flanges to hold them in place in the shell. If it's a friction thing (there is a metal plate with two screws that holds these parts in place), a much simpler solution would have been thicker posts on the black piece and a simple cylindrical bushing over each of them with the metal plate just keeping them from popping out of place. Sony put complexity and weakness in a crucial part when there was no need for it. I have plenty of manufacturing and machining experience to know that. This is going to be a problem that Sony will soon have to fix with a revision. If it can happen to me in 3 weeks, it's going to start happening to many others well within a year. They'll be replacing a lot of controllers until they fix it.

    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.

    @HowardKat ปีที่แล้ว +7

    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.

    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 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.

    It's a nice controller but I do have my gripes.
    Cons: The glossy buttons I can't stand. The function buttons don't adjust volume at all for the headset, and I'm wearing the damn Sony made one. I am getting cramps from the controller but I'm sure I'll get used to it, I've been using the scuf one for a hot minute now. Battery life is so bad I don't know why they couldn't bump it up more. Trigger resisters don't make as much of a difference as I'd like, I was hoping for that more analog trigger pull on the low setting as you said in the video. Why is there only one color choice, and why is it white...
    Pros: the sticks feel great as they did on the regular dualsense. The half dome paddles are so good, can't believe this is the first time someone has really used them. Touch pad requires more force to push it in which i like. More grip on the triggers and back feel great.
    As an aside note, am I the only person that finds the use of the □X○A a little much? I get they like the different button icons but godamn do they need to put it on every square inch of everything they make now?

    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 ❤️

  • @jamesfoo6128

    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!

  • @Stodds13
    @Stodds13 ปีที่แล้ว

    It actually amazes me how many reviews about the edge don’t really understand the real reason for the connection housing piece. The reason it’s there is so if you play with it connected a lot, you won’t loosen the metal connection piece on the controller which can happen a lot if you play with your controller connected. With the awful battery life of the edge, there is a good chance you will need to plug it in to continue playing if you want to game for more than 4-5 hours.
    Either way, if you game up a lot and play shooters, the Elite for Xbox or the Edge for PS is a must have in my opinion!!

    No complaints about the edge except if you are using a back paddle it gives you leverage to press it the wrong way. I did that on mine. Pressed the peddle slightly pulling in and the switch itself broke loose inide the controller. Still works but moves inside the body. So id recommend using the half domes instead of paddles if you are rough on controllers like I am.

    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

  • @A_d_e_k

    A couple of things I have to say about the video:
    _Through japanese interviews it was to understand, that Sony had problem fitting further features (especially 2 face buttons and bigger battery...there just isn't any space left inside the shell), alas the phisically smaller battery than a standard Dualsense and the missing 2 face buttons. Modular sticks apparently take a lot of space
    _The controller still isn't usable with DS4 because it literally just came out and it's not the same thing as a Dualsense. DS4 will need to roll a new update to be compatible with it.
    _GuliKit announced hall effect modules through some insiders, I've linked the source in your Discord server
    I don't know why but through the video I had the impression that you didn't like the controller all that much...Am I misunderstanding this sentiment?

    • @GamerHeavenOfficial
      @GamerHeavenOfficial  ปีที่แล้ว +13

      I love the controller, I am just more accustomed to 4 rear button/paddle controllers as that is what I have been using for over 2 years. If Sony did make those claims, that's simply not true, there are a bunch of 3rd part PS5 controllers (I have tested and reviewed) with normal battery life and 4 rear input buttons.
      All PS5 controllers I have tested have the same PCB so they immediately work with those programs on PC, so as mentioned in the review "I think Sony is using a new unique board here".
      I investigated the Gullikit news including its main source, stand by my statement in the video.

      @@GamerHeavenOfficial I understand, but those other controllers don't have all the features this controller has. Those modules for the sticks are really big. Most of them don't have trigger stops either.
      Edit: maybe I'm wrong on this, I just think (even based on the teardown of the Edge), that the controller has no extra space for more features.

      The ones I use are the astro c40 and a fairly unknown under the radar controller called ZD-O. The ZD-O has 6 extra buttons, it's multiplatform, and it also other small neat features.

      I feel like DSX is better than DS4 as a PC program for Dualsense related stuff (the steam version since it still receives updates, it's cheap but not free) since it has more options for Dualsense controllers. They've also started adding support for the Edge already, with even more features planned for future updates.

    One thing no one seems to notice, which is baffling, is how much outer deadzone the regular DualSense's triggers have. It basically reaches 100% input at 2/3 of the physical range.

    I know this isnt quite your forte, but I think something you should consider adding to the review process (even if its brief) is Gyro Aim tech in controllers. Can vary from controller to controller and Gyro Aim (not the same during the Wii days) is becoming much more popular especially amongst Nintendo, Sony, and Steam Deck players. It gives "mouse-like" aim that is highly intuitive and responsive. Its definitely better than stick aiming and does not need Aim Assist

    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).

    • @HK_on_YT
      @HK_on_YT ปีที่แล้ว

      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.
