Hello I been watching some of your videos about Edge Controller and to be honest you are one of most understand about the controller in TH-cam. Can you help me with one question With the Inzone Earbuds I'll able to control volume and mix chat/game with "fn" on edge controller ?? Sony just give me the answer "I believe you are able to do it via the "Fn" button." What is not very conclusive if i can or not they believe xD Thank you for your help Happy new year
Off topic but could you maybe do a video for more aggressive player and new to the dual sense edge controller specific for mw3 multiplayer I’m not the most creative player maybe something close to the regular ones but slightly better silly question maybe but it’s so advanced and I’m so insecure 😟 I really don’t know which route to go
My God! What are the chances of that... This happened to my dual Sense Edge yesterday! It had been creating bubbles on the sides for a while, then it started to come off, I got irritated and took it all off! It was ugly, aesthetically ugly. A little uncomfortable also without the rubbers, but I'm very dissatisfied! Because it was an expensive control and it didn't last 5 months. I take very good care of my things, it was no misuse on my part. I will think long and hard before buying "premium" stuff from Sony again.
Yeah, unfortunately even though they feel good at first, but don't last long, sony should either provide replacements with a good glue or just make it better, when I opened it, there were very small parts going around the body, and that the main reason it starts bubbling, they could probably fix it with a better design and some higher quality material underneath.
It started happening to me a few months ago. My hands usually sweat a lot no matter if I am chilling or actually trying to play well. Unlucky I guess lol
@@000999zebra I can't remember when it started happening but it's been years already. Went to the doctor and they recommended some pills that make you sweat less but you get super dry and hands won't stop sweating, they will just sweat less
I don't like white controllers so I put a black silicone skin thingy on it from aliexpress very cheap, added more grip and I don't have to worry about this issue either, that's also a route others can take if they wish
Very nice idea, yeah good skin could be very helpful, however in my experience they need to be changed after a while as they don't fit or somehow change the size, but they work fine for a while and then you can get another skin.
Thank you danial! I'm glad to see that the replacements work fine. Imo those seem like the better alternative than those "leather" grip stickers. I tended to use the edge less to spare the controller but with those I don't have to worry
Thanks! Yes maybe they don't feel the same and are mostly like a typical dual sense as they are similar to that, but at least they don't peel off, the same with me, nowadays I'm using it only when I play MP games where I need back buttons and custom R2 Ranges, for single player game I just use the normal controller!
I just noticed this today and came across this vid. Ill have to give one of these a buy, didnt think id be dealing with what happened with the xbox elite controller grips again
I’m disabled so I’m a power user of the controller, and noticed how poor the durability is. My stick is now also really stiff and has a cringe-inducing creak when moving it towards the top (as in moving forward in any game ever). I was going to get a stick module replacement but they’re all out of stock and only being sold by scalpers for 5x the price.
If you're not that much interested in the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, then I recommend switching over to the Nacon controller. It's much more durable than the DS Edge, has hall effect joysticks that will never need replacing, and has 4 back buttons.
Thanks for the video, my edge has been sitting on the shelf for a while since i hate the grips, not only are they coming off but also yellowing and do not feel good on the hand, just bought this replacement shell, hopefully not only will fix the grip problem bit also look even better.
It is not held on with adhesive so it’s not room temperature and how much you play. it has a little micro pieces molded into the plastic that hold it on
I’ve used my edge for probably 3000+ hours, however, I’m very pro controller grips. I just replaced my first set of controller grips, which I installed before any use. I also will not use a controller without grips/stick risers. It feels like a complete custom controller, vs just bare and stock.
It's just lame that it takes further money spent on customisation to finally achieve a finish that won't degrade so poorly over time, especially for a controller as expensive as the DS Edge. In comparison, my Flydigi Vader 4 Pro, along with all its accessories (including a carrying case and grips), still works out to be twice as less expensive than the DS Edge. And it's a far better controller.
I noticed this and thought it was just me! I’ve been playing with mine since it released and it has just started to bubble abit but I try my best to not ruin it more but man for the price we pay, it is sad to see this kind of thing happen to it. Unfortunately we don’t have any scuf controllers here in NZ and I do not want to order online as it will cost me so much money and the shipping and the long wait for it. Might have to look into local ones again
This couldn't have come at a better time, noticed two very small bulges on either side of my DS Edge, and from my experience with tech' it's only goin to get worse over time. At least I know I can get a replacement. Good looking out!
The replacement shell still holding out good for you? My grips (original dualsense one's to make my self clear) have been bubbling for a while now but it wasn't that bad but now it's starting to get pretty bad recently having a big bubble on the edge of the right grip that I've noticed.
Hi, so far after all these months mine is still looking fine, after I made this video I've got the matte model and they still look good and 0 problems, the white one is also solid and didn't change color or anything. If you have warranty, in some countries they replace it for you with a new controller.
@@DanielZH Cool my warranty should cover it Argos over here in the UK is pretty good with that sort of thing I'm just wondering as I would prefer getting it in black I don't want the full set as quite frankly I don't want to damage it by accident but just the back bit should be easy enough no more complicated then cleaning out the insides of the PS5 right? Or would you recommend one of those skin grip covers in my case?
Planning to get one for my controller. Is the replacement shell all plastic? I'm not really a fan of the rubber grips so I personally prefer it to be all plastic. Thanks.
Great video! I did have a question about this product. I have seen on amazon that people claim the paint on this product to be a little too smooth/slippery. Even in the regular dualsense the plastic has a little bit of "grip" if you know what I mean. If the plastic is too smooth, maybe it wont be nice to hold and will make my performance in games lower. What do you think?
Hi, thanks, except for the rubber grip, the rest of the body feels the same to me compared to a normal dual sense, the color may look a bit different but the material is not different (to me at least).
Just used your code to pick up a replacement! Sony always drops the ball with QC so I don’t even want to try and send it back to em, would rather go 3rd party for a solution.
Thanks! I wish they would provide rubbered ones too, I recently tried another Edge controller and after this long it felt good, so it's good to have both normal and rubbered, I'll ask eXtremeRate to see if they can make one! + Sony really should do a better job at QC for such expensive controller.
Just installed a sweet fully black shell on my edge since I didn't like the rubber grip feel :) mine doesn't have the fitment issues yours had btw. Also did the 2000mah ali express battery upgrade while I was at it. Suprisingly the battery seems legit lol, tested it and it lasts at least a couple hours more
Sony replaced mine under warranty at 9mths old, only called to ask about it no questions just asked me to send it in and replacement (controller only) pad recived within a week. Crap it happened but cant fault the service provided.
Yeah the rubber on mine is starting to lift as well which is disappointing but fortunately i still have a warranty. I just dont want to have to keep replacing my controller every 6 months or something silly like that. Hopefully sony starts quality checking for this soon
Yeah this has been a really bad issue the entire time. I'm on my second one and I haven't taken it out the box yet because I can't find a case that will protect the whole thing. They easily get button transfer scuffs too and theres nothing you can do to fix it. The entire thing is a terrible cosmetic design for the price.
Yeah, they should bring a solution to this problem, it could be much better if it was just like the normal Dualsense, however, you can replace them but not easy or worth for everyone.
@@zeezmo6337 that's just what I call them because I don't know what else to call it. It's exactly what it sounds like. Scuffs from transferring your thumb between the X, O, ∆, Square. I don't have long nails and I was babying it and I still got it within literally a couple play sessions. You have to angle your controller in the light just right and you can see it. I have it on my normal dual sense as well but I felt even on that one it took longer to develop.
Sad, I bought these to be replaceable for the sticks, and instead the thing that actually needs replacing is the grip... Which has no official replacement 😅
Oh, that's sad, Sony should've used a better material or design! now the controller costs $200 and a rear + front replacement = $220 while it could be fixed if they would use a good material.
Honestly I only using my edge controller when I feel like it. Just got one used it early before I go into today. A controller that expensive shouldn’t be used daily or even long hours throughout the day.
Wow, I actually had no idea that this was a problem to be honest. I guess I'll have to check my controller when for ware and tare when I get home. I'm sure replacing these shells can't be half as bad as adding the extremerate remap kit to the base dual sense model... (Which really wasn't too bad, so long as you don't solder. Still a pain though). As always, I appreciate your video! Thanks again!
yeah I didn't know it too until I saw comments from others if it hasn't happened yet, you can maybe use a cover but I'm not sure if that helps, but yeah the back and front shell is easy to replace, and the full body is VERY HARD, that's why I didn't go through that haha.
You're welcome 😄, if in any case your back buttons broke, there's a fix for that too, no need to buy a new one: th-cam.com/video/DiUwqcMkbE0/w-d-xo.html
Well, that’s unfortunate. I bought two of them about three to four weeks ago and after heavy usage (gaming vacation ^^) both controller start bubbling…. :O At least now I know it’s replaceable, so thanks for you Video! But man, those Controllers were just too expensive for that… Right now it’s summer and 27-30°C in my room and I'm getting very sweaty while playing day and night these days. Vacation ending soon, still sadge. 😢 ^^
Sorry to hear that, yeah sadly its not the quality we expected for a $200 controller, If you have warranty, in some countries they replace it for you with a new controller.
mine didn't fell off even after 1 year, still was fine and I replaced it, really depends on you, my hands never get sweaty and I think that's the main reason it lasted so long.
Hi Is it true that HDr and sdr will effect your playing in fps online games And playing with HDR ON in ps5 Will delay your play a little bit compare to SDR ?
Lol I think the runner issue is not the issue, it's the fact that the parts for the back buttons fail, my first one it was the plastic pivot points the replacement has now broken and it's the actual electrical contacts have got week and stick, absolutely rubbish for the amount they cost
About 10 months old edge controller, white backing coming off, left stick real bad drift. Cant even get replaced joycon as there not available anywhere! Gonna buy another controller even tho have 3 regular ps5 controllers ill never use again. Need another for mw3 with back buttons.
Have you considered adding Back buttons to a normal DualSense? I'm about to make a video about that in the coming month from eXtremerate and review them.
Have done it, yes. Ordered off Amazon and my luck recieved a faulty button's. Not to difficult to do, just felt kinda cheap. Cant fully say since never got to use, is just plug and play, maybe i should go back that route. Anyhow, thanks man, appreciate all your video's
You can replace it with Front and rear grip even if it's not peeled off, like I did, or you can use it as long as it works and later buy a replacement if you needed to.
@DanielZH Hi, thanks for the reply 👍 I'm from Portugal and here we have 3y warranty for electronic devices. I'll wait until it gets worse like the pictures you showed. Mine started with one bouble each side like yours and now has like five each.. Btw, changing the back side has some seal that voids warranty?
@@Ruben-jf8jnIt's good if the warranty supports this too! Yeah you better wait for now, and I'm not sure if changing the back part will void it, there are no screws or anything needed for changing that.
My back button breaks in and gets stuck. It works but I have to press it a certain way. I looked inside the controller to see that the actual back button module itself is loose. If you can make a video on that you may actually be the first to do it btw🤲🏽
Nah, just cheaply built ones. I've known ppl that have owned and abused their 3rd party controllers for many years, with minimal wear and tear. Somehow the Elite Series 2 and the DS Edge have poor durability, despite initially looking and feeling very premium.
mine was still ok after all this time, I doubt that there's some QC issues too but it could also be how the user treat the controller as well, my stuff typically last longer than my friends' stuff because I'm more careful with them so...
I did pick white first, it was cool, but I recently got the black matte as it adds more contrast to the controller and I like it, you can preview colors on the website though!
My spacing is off too. I use the regular back paddles(black one). This make my paddles activate even though it was not touched. I need help with this situation
A great video as always Sony really shouldn't be having these problems especially for a controller that cost that much anyways when I do get the finances to do so I will be getting the scarlet red set with clear red thumbsticks for it and hopefully some company like Guilkit sorts out the main issue for controllers nowadays but either way it's cheaper in the long run so why not go for it
Thanks, yeah unfortunately Sony added a new problem without a solution from them while it shouldn't be like this if they would just use a different material or design!
hi my friend I'm playing warzone3 until yesterday the audio was horrendous, now it seems like they fixed something. they will have touched the game files for audio. when will you release an updated video bomb to better understand which equalizer to use on the game and EQ pulse are now?
Hey, i have a big concern. I hope that you can help me... I saw that a user of a 65" LG G3 gets HDR10 in the VRR Information on Gran Turismo 7, according to what some people have confirmed to me. But the problem, is that i don't get that even though i also have an LG OLED that has HDR10 (it's a 55LX1QPSA aka Posé). However, all other data in my VRR Information are the same as that guy. What is the reason for this?
Hi, what information do you get? I didn't test Gran Turismo 7 recently so I'm not sure, did they add a new mode as HDR10? because in the past, it was just HDR or SDR.
I really want to get this Controller butttt its really nothing close to d Xbox elite series 2 with 4 paddles(I wish it worked on the ps5) , was considering getting the vitro bfg to get that same feel but that has its own issues, but am really happy to wait for the next dual sense edge 2 with 4 paddles cause I know Sony would not be happy to fall short on the elite controller battle with Xbox till then I will have to learn claw 😢
So glad I picked collective minds horizon vista 4 back button kit instead of ds edge with only 2 paddles. $60 & quality company that takes care of customers. Sure, wish it was wireless & as simple as ps4 version but that's due to sonys tech in controller & $200 is way too much for 1 controller with features u can't swap to another & obviously it has some flaws. Wish they'd come out with a 4 back button wireless option approved by sony that doesn't need an app or even worse other companies versions which require taking your controller apart & voiding warranty. Pretty stupid controllers don't come with back buttons or paddles in stock version. No controller should b $200
@@DanielZH it's definitely not perfect but I can't blame collective minds bcuz they did the impossible vs tech implemented in controller (supposedly for anti cheat) & that's what makes it a pain. As least u don't have to void warranty by taking apart. It is frustrating bcuz there r mods available in the set up but like the PS4 version, I never used them. I simply wanted back buttons for hand comfort & convenience & once u get used to paddles or back buttons, going back to a controller without them is such a bummer & not something I want to do. Paying $200 for only 2 back buttons & having it cover 1 controller only where if it dies, u r back to regular controller & need to shell out another $200 is outrageous .
just send back to sony they will replace it at no cost....if you bought it from them they have your receipt...I just did it a week ago and they gave me a brand new controller...had to put all my configurations back into it.
@@zeezmo6337 I play on pc I have a lot of controllers just didn’t like the dualsense edge much . Plus even though you can change the modules you’ll still get stick drift from the edge
I fix controllers and the edge is not a good controller to work on for a beginner if you are doing this yourself anything farther than the back plate might ruin the controller
It's the most complicated controller for typical users to open and make changes compared to other PlayStation controllers, however, the front and back covers are pretty easy to change.
I was wondering if you have a fix on ps5 graphics settings on mw3, my guns look so grainy and i have all the recommended graphic settings for the game on any clue ?
Hi, the game doesn't look good on 120Hz mode or 60Hz, there's nothing much we can do the native resolution is low, try keeping film grain on 0 and Fidelity CAS off to see if it helps but the picture becomes blurry.
Hi daniel I started Starwars Survivor right from the start I noticed something very strange in performance mode at the beginning when on the helicopter the hair becomes half dark and half red and I immediately understood that it was a problem with the mode, however in quality mode everything is perfect you can explain why, thank you very much 
Hi, after the latest patch (7 and 7.5) they turned off RayTracing for Performance mode to achieve a 60FPS Stable gameplay, and that causes issues with some lighting and reflections, but it's better than unstable FPS overall, I wanna start it again too as I haven't finished it but Quality 30FPS mode has stutters for me so it's either quality stutter (and not 30FPS Stable also) or Performance low quality.
@@DanielZH just let me know if in the opening scene you also notice this thing in performance mode? when it's on the helicopter and the shot starts on the tied hands and reaches the head, here it happens in the head then even after a while it gives me an error and sends me to the menu
@@gleam6370it took me 6 hours to finish it and some side missions are still there! I think it'll take more if you play on high difficulties, I just played on the default one!
Do not buy this controller because the back button modules are defective & will break well before the warranty period. Ok you say the warranty covers it, but the warranty period only covers a year from the purchase date - however, if your replacement controllers inevitably break past that original purchase date, then you're out of luck & stuck with a broken replacement refurbished controller. Shame sony, shame....

Thanks! I wish they would provide rubbered ones too, I recently tried another Edge controller and after this long it felt good, so it's good to have both normal and rubbered, I'll ask eXtremeRate to see if they can make one!
+ Sony really should do a better job at QC for such expensive controller.
Just installed a sweet fully black shell on my edge since I didn't like the rubber grip feel :) mine doesn't have the fitment issues yours had btw. Also did the 2000mah ali express battery upgrade while I was at it. Suprisingly the battery seems legit lol, tested it and it lasts at least a couple hours more
Sounds great! hope the battery works fine and doesn't break the controller, keep us updated!
Link to the battery?
Sony replaced mine under warranty at 9mths old, only called to ask about it no questions just asked me to send it in and replacement (controller only) pad recived within a week.
Crap it happened but cant fault the service provided.
Thanks for letting us know, yeah if they accept it, it's good to get a replacement!
Yeah the rubber on mine is starting to lift as well which is disappointing but fortunately i still have a warranty. I just dont want to have to keep replacing my controller every 6 months or something silly like that. Hopefully sony starts quality checking for this soon
Good to know! as long as they replace it, it's fine, but hopefully they find a better solution.
Yes, I have the same problem what I do is I purchased mine from Best Buy. I just replaced mine every month.
Every month? Are you getting a similar model as OG? Rubber Grips?
@@DanielZH no I get a brand new controller. I can send you a picture on discord.
@@DanielZH I just posted it on Discord every month. I get a new controller from Best Buy because it kind of warranty I purchased.
@@hp1799 Oh that's good actually if you can replace it every month! here it doesn't go under warranty!
Yeah this has been a really bad issue the entire time. I'm on my second one and I haven't taken it out the box yet because I can't find a case that will protect the whole thing. They easily get button transfer scuffs too and theres nothing you can do to fix it. The entire thing is a terrible cosmetic design for the price.
Yeah, they should bring a solution to this problem, it could be much better if it was just like the normal Dualsense, however, you can replace them but not easy or worth for everyone.
what are button transfer scuffs?
@@zeezmo6337 that's just what I call them because I don't know what else to call it. It's exactly what it sounds like. Scuffs from transferring your thumb between the X, O, ∆, Square. I don't have long nails and I was babying it and I still got it within literally a couple play sessions. You have to angle your controller in the light just right and you can see it. I have it on my normal dual sense as well but I felt even on that one it took longer to develop.
After 7 month of about 8 hour use per day my rubber grips turned dirty grey and start to slowly peel of.
Do you have warranty?
Sad, I bought these to be replaceable for the sticks, and instead the thing that actually needs replacing is the grip... Which has no official replacement 😅
Yeah Unfortunately this is a common problem I hear about them these days, haha, but hopefully, it'll be the only problem! 😅
I was suffering from this problem until the control was not in its normal position.😢 I threw it in the container
Oh, that's sad, Sony should've used a better material or design! now the controller costs $200 and a rear + front replacement = $220 while it could be fixed if they would use a good material.
It's true that it became incoherent and annoying to the hands.😨
Honestly I only using my edge controller when I feel like it. Just got one used it early before I go into today. A controller that expensive shouldn’t be used daily or even long hours throughout the day.
That's a good choice, I also use the normal controller for the games that don't need back buttons.
I've only had my edge for 2 weeks and just noticed my grip is bubbling. My hands get very sweaty
Oh, that's sad, if you have a warranty, they will replace it for you in the frame time.
@DanielZH can't really be bothered sending it in, do you know if there are any replacement rubber panels I can buy?
Wow, I actually had no idea that this was a problem to be honest. I guess I'll have to check my controller when for ware and tare when I get home. I'm sure replacing these shells can't be half as bad as adding the extremerate remap kit to the base dual sense model... (Which really wasn't too bad, so long as you don't solder. Still a pain though). As always, I appreciate your video! Thanks again!
yeah I didn't know it too until I saw comments from others if it hasn't happened yet, you can maybe use a cover but I'm not sure if that helps, but yeah the back and front shell is easy to replace, and the full body is VERY HARD, that's why I didn't go through that haha.
You are a lifesaver glad i saw this video i thought i had to buy a whole new controller 😅
You're welcome 😄, if in any case your back buttons broke, there's a fix for that too, no need to buy a new one: th-cam.com/video/DiUwqcMkbE0/w-d-xo.html
I got kontrol freak grip just case this happened it has never let me down
Nice!
Been using mine for a year and 0 issues except my one button started to break due to me using alcohol wipes on them.
I see, button replacements aren't hard though!
Well, that’s unfortunate. I bought two of them about three to four weeks ago and after heavy usage (gaming vacation ^^) both controller start bubbling…. :O
At least now I know it’s replaceable, so thanks for you Video! But man, those Controllers were just too expensive for that…
Right now it’s summer and 27-30°C in my room and I'm getting very sweaty while playing day and night these days. Vacation ending soon, still sadge. 😢 ^^
Sorry to hear that, yeah sadly its not the quality we expected for a $200 controller, If you have warranty, in some countries they replace it for you with a new controller.
Literally had for 2 months and now its peeking? Is this covered under warranty?
Yes it is, ask for a replace.
Have you tried over clocking the duelsense edge controller?
No
How about I just glue the rubber back? I started a couple of weeks ago and is not bad yet, but I want to know if that is an option.
That may work too, but depends on the glue you use to not harm the body or other stuff.
My hands doesn't sweat while gaming so, this is kinda good news
How long have you been using it? 7 months here no issues yet!
How long before it falls off had snout 2 months and its bubbling
mine didn't fell off even after 1 year, still was fine and I replaced it, really depends on you, my hands never get sweaty and I think that's the main reason it lasted so long.
@DanielZH yh I grip mine very well it's still on but bubbling started worth getting that to fix it
Hi
Is it true that HDr and sdr will effect your playing in fps online games
And playing with HDR ON in ps5
Will delay your play a little bit compare to SDR ?
Hi, not for all games, but I've noticed it in COD MW3 in some tests, I'll release a video about it soon!
This was the best way to sponsor extremerate,,if you have problems with edge 😂😂
Haha, thanks!
It's because your hands are dirty when you you use them is one of the point why the your controller has that. Baby tissue helps alot
Yes
We are excited and waiting you to make a video about aim assist & response curve types in depth in new warzone
Hi! Working on it, It's one of the most different ones and has a lot of information, will be ready on the weekend probably!
My hands never sweat house stays at 70°f not even 4 months an mine is bubbling
yeah bad quality too!
Lol I think the runner issue is not the issue, it's the fact that the parts for the back buttons fail, my first one it was the plastic pivot points the replacement has now broken and it's the actual electrical contacts have got week and stick, absolutely rubbish for the amount they cost
Sadly yes, I just sent a video about changing back button module: th-cam.com/video/DiUwqcMkbE0/w-d-xo.html
Yep, mine pulled off as well. Ordered my Hex Gaming phantom yesterday. Im not spending more money on a shitty product.
Let me know how that controller goes!
Your back button is about to break. That's y it is touching
If you saw that golden one, that was an issue with the curve, I've got a new one and that's fine
I have the same problem. Apply warranty?
I asked here and it didn't apply for warranty, ask them in your location and maybe laws are different there!
About 10 months old edge controller, white backing coming off, left stick real bad drift. Cant even get replaced joycon as there not available anywhere! Gonna buy another controller even tho have 3 regular ps5 controllers ill never use again. Need another for mw3 with back buttons.
Have you considered adding Back buttons to a normal DualSense? I'm about to make a video about that in the coming month from eXtremerate and review them.
Have done it, yes. Ordered off Amazon and my luck recieved a faulty button's. Not to difficult to do, just felt kinda cheap. Cant fully say since never got to use, is just plug and play, maybe i should go back that route. Anyhow, thanks man, appreciate all your video's
I have two little bumps each side , can i just buy a grip for the controller
You can replace it with Front and rear grip even if it's not peeled off, like I did, or you can use it as long as it works and later buy a replacement if you needed to.
I’ve some issues with the sticks after 800 hours on fifa and ea fc ,
Any advice.?
What kind of issues? drifting and stuff like that?
@@DanielZH exactly the left stick is more , I find on AliExpress but I’m not sure about quality
@@kleep777 I'd get the original one, it cost $20 I guess, and yes, I have a little drift on the left stick too.
@@DanielZH out of stock
One question: if the controller still has warranty, is this kind of problem covered?
Hi, depends on where you got it from, people reported that Best Buy accepts this for warranty
@DanielZH Hi, thanks for the reply 👍
I'm from Portugal and here we have 3y warranty for electronic devices. I'll wait until it gets worse like the pictures you showed.
Mine started with one bouble each side like yours and now has like five each..
Btw, changing the back side has some seal that voids warranty?
@@Ruben-jf8jnIt's good if the warranty supports this too! Yeah you better wait for now, and I'm not sure if changing the back part will void it, there are no screws or anything needed for changing that.
@DanielZH yeah, I think there's no problem too. Thank you very much and keep up the good work! You're doing a very good job in your channel 👏
Have the same exact problem and its annoying especially when i remember the price i paid for this crap
The controller itself and features are good, the design and quality is not that good, and hard to find stick modules too.
My hands sweat while doing nothing and I have 5 bubbles after 6 months 😢
Keep an eye on it, you can ask for a warranty before it finishes and get a new one.
Hej bro , flip back the buttons !!! it will be much better!! sad that I can't send a picture of my controller
What happened? It worked better in which case?
My back button breaks in and gets stuck. It works but I have to press it a certain way. I looked inside the controller to see that the actual back button module itself is loose. If you can make a video on that you may actually be the first to do it btw🤲🏽
Oh that's something weird I haven't seen that happening so I can't be sure how could that be fixed! have you asked a repair center?
Sony really make their controller to breakdown over time and not to last
Talking about a mega corporation being greedy
hope it someday fixes with a better design.
I was gonna get a rubber around it anyways for more protection
That's a good idea, do it before it peels off or else you have to fully replace it!
It happens to all of them if you use it enough
Nah, just cheaply built ones.
I've known ppl that have owned and abused their 3rd party controllers for many years, with minimal wear and tear.
Somehow the Elite Series 2 and the DS Edge have poor durability, despite initially looking and feeling very premium.
mine was still ok after all this time, I doubt that there's some QC issues too but it could also be how the user treat the controller as well, my stuff typically last longer than my friends' stuff because I'm more careful with them so...
I noticed that mine have some bubbles and I think im going to get a replacement grip. What would be a good color to pick?
I did pick white first, it was cool, but I recently got the black matte as it adds more contrast to the controller and I like it, you can preview colors on the website though!
My brother got a bag for this one
My spacing is off too. I use the regular back paddles(black one). This make my paddles activate even though it was not touched. I need help with this situation
which one did you get? because I only had that problem with the ones I've got from extremerate, the OG model was fine.
A great video as always Sony really shouldn't be having these problems especially for a controller that cost that much anyways when I do get the finances to do so I will be getting the scarlet red set with clear red thumbsticks for it and hopefully some company like Guilkit sorts out the main issue for controllers nowadays but either way it's cheaper in the long run so why not go for it
Thanks, yeah unfortunately Sony added a new problem without a solution from them while it shouldn't be like this if they would just use a different material or design!
hi my friend
I'm playing warzone3 until yesterday the audio was horrendous, now it seems like they fixed something. they will have touched the game files for audio.
when will you release an updated video bomb to better understand which equalizer to use on the game and EQ pulse are now?
I'm working on 2 new videos one for AA and one for audio
@@DanielZH good broother
Hey, i have a big concern. I hope that you can help me...
I saw that a user of a 65" LG G3 gets HDR10 in the VRR Information on Gran Turismo 7, according to what some people have confirmed to me. But the problem, is that i don't get that even though i also have an LG OLED that has HDR10 (it's a 55LX1QPSA aka Posé). However, all other data in my VRR Information are the same as that guy.
What is the reason for this?
Hi, what information do you get? I didn't test Gran Turismo 7 recently so I'm not sure, did they add a new mode as HDR10? because in the past, it was just HDR or SDR.
@@DanielZH
Just doesn't appear HDR10 on my VRR Information data. But it does to him.
The back triggers become non responsive as well be careful
Oh, that sounds sad, I hope they work fine, because there's no replacement for them!
This happened to me after 6months of use
Hello Daniel did u tried the nacon rev 5 I don t find a video cause is cheap compare with dual sense edge thanks
Hi, haven't tested that one yet!
Far better than the DS Edge, it looks and feels so much more premium.
Yup started having to mind a few months in
Yeah
Out of a 100 dollar order u saved me 5 bucks
How did you make your controller change led color like that?
There's an app on PC for that which I showed here: th-cam.com/video/t_y04KXDUjU/w-d-xo.html
We need a rocket league edge settings breakdown…PLEASE
I have to play these new games for at least 1 week to get the system working, I have it on the list though!
I really want to get this Controller butttt its really nothing close to d Xbox elite series 2 with 4 paddles(I wish it worked on the ps5) , was considering getting the vitro bfg to get that same feel but that has its own issues, but am really happy to wait for the next dual sense edge 2 with 4 paddles cause I know Sony would not be happy to fall short on the elite controller battle with Xbox till then I will have to learn claw 😢
I hear they making a new ps5 pro controller I waiting for that one 😊
@@christopherduren9368 where you heard that from?
So glad I picked collective minds horizon vista 4 back button kit instead of ds edge with only 2 paddles.
$60 & quality company that takes care of customers.
Sure, wish it was wireless & as simple as ps4 version but that's due to sonys tech in controller & $200 is way too much for 1 controller with features u can't swap to another & obviously it has some flaws. Wish they'd come out with a 4 back button wireless option approved by sony that doesn't need an app or even worse other companies versions which require taking your controller apart & voiding warranty. Pretty stupid controllers don't come with back buttons or paddles in stock version. No controller should b $200
Thanks a bunch for sharing, 4 back buttons sounds great, I may look at those too for my Dualsense.
@@DanielZH it's definitely not perfect but I can't blame collective minds bcuz they did the impossible vs tech implemented in controller (supposedly for anti cheat) & that's what makes it a pain. As least u don't have to void warranty by taking apart.
It is frustrating bcuz there r mods available in the set up but like the PS4 version, I never used them. I simply wanted back buttons for hand comfort & convenience & once u get used to paddles or back buttons, going back to a controller without them is such a bummer & not something I want to do.
Paying $200 for only 2 back buttons & having it cover 1 controller only where if it dies, u r back to regular controller & need to shell out another $200 is outrageous .
Yep Sony stole $200 from me. I bought a victrix after repairing the dual sense three times JUNK!!!!!
just send back to sony they will replace it at no cost....if you bought it from them they have your receipt...I just did it a week ago and they gave me a brand new controller...had to put all my configurations back into it.
Now that I have the controller back I replaced the whole back plate with a extreme rate back plate.
Thanks for the info
Sounds great, yes as long as you can replace it at no cost, that's the best option.
Yes, i have the same problem on my Edge after five months. Very bad quality. Sony 👎
it seems you can send it back and get a new one within the warranty period, but yeah, it'll happen again.
You think sony would let u get away with only having 1 controller for the ps5’s life cycle lol
😅
Just got rid of mine today gonna get the new turtle beach ultra 😊
Seems interesting
you got rid of a ps5 controller to buy a xbox controller?
@@zeezmo6337 I play on pc I have a lot of controllers just didn’t like the dualsense edge much . Plus even though you can change the modules you’ll still get stick drift from the edge
I fix controllers and the edge is not a good controller to work on for a beginner if you are doing this yourself anything farther than the back plate might ruin the controller
It's the most complicated controller for typical users to open and make changes compared to other PlayStation controllers, however, the front and back covers are pretty easy to change.
I was wondering if you have a fix on ps5 graphics settings on mw3, my guns look so grainy and i have all the recommended graphic settings for the game on any clue ?
Hi, the game doesn't look good on 120Hz mode or 60Hz, there's nothing much we can do the native resolution is low, try keeping film grain on 0 and Fidelity CAS off to see if it helps but the picture becomes blurry.
bro i cant even buy an stick module for it nowhere
Not even from Amazon?
Hi daniel I started Starwars Survivor right from the start I noticed something very strange in performance mode at the beginning when on the helicopter the hair becomes half dark and half red and I immediately understood that it was a problem with the mode, however in quality mode everything is perfect you can explain why, thank you very much

Hi, after the latest patch (7 and 7.5) they turned off RayTracing for Performance mode to achieve a 60FPS Stable gameplay, and that causes issues with some lighting and reflections, but it's better than unstable FPS overall, I wanna start it again too as I haven't finished it but Quality 30FPS mode has stutters for me so it's either quality stutter (and not 30FPS Stable also) or Performance low quality.
@@DanielZH just let me know if in the opening scene you also notice this thing in performance mode? when it's on the helicopter and the shot starts on the tied hands and reaches the head, here it happens in the head then even after a while it gives me an error and sends me to the menu
@@andrearossi1960Oh, ok I'll let you know as I didn't replay it yet, but I've heard some people reporting crashes after the last patch!

Sounds good! hope you'll have fun with them!
Thank you very much!
You're welcome!
Do not buy this controller because the back button modules are defective & will break well before the warranty period.
Ok you say the warranty covers it, but the warranty period only covers a year from the purchase date - however, if your replacement controllers inevitably break past that original purchase date, then you're out of luck & stuck with a broken replacement refurbished controller.
Shame sony, shame....
Unfortunatley yes, that may happen to back buttons.
@DanielZH not that quickly tho
hopefully the next iteration will increase the durability... but this version, horrendous
This is literally some poor design. The controller would be amazing if those rubber grips weren't there to begin with.
I liked the rubberized grips, but them peeling off? not a fan of that...
Best coverage channel of DS Edge 🙌 thank you for your hard work
Much appreciated!
