This guy is spot on. I have both Series S and PS5. Initially I was too impressed with the dual sense controller due to that amazing tech demo Aka Astro’s Playroom. But with time I have realised that the Xbox controller gets the fundamentals right. It’s comfortable, feels natural in my hands, has grippier concave shaped sticks, ergonomically feels better and have more tactile buttons. It’s Only after playing for hours and hours you realise how good the Xbox controller feels in the hand.
As a person who’s been using the Xbox controller for a while on pc, I tried the ps5 controller and it wasn’t as good/better than the Xbox controller as how people lead you to believe, this video is one of the few ones where the comparison is actually real. Listen to this guy and don’t let all the random people influence your choice cause both are actually pretty equal overall
Appreciate the support and totally, most decisions are based off of console biases but to be fair both controllers are equally well and serve diff purposes. Cheers for watching the video!
@@edimarjunior9616 🤡 68 games support haptic feedback..out of them comes almost all Sony first party and many many 3rd part games ..get ur facts checked. Dualsense is lightyears ahead of Xbox controller
As someone who honestly hated the cheapness feel of the DualShock, it was surprising how amazing the Dualsense is. If Xbox refined their great design from last gen a bit more it prob would’ve been better. But the Dualsense just feels like a refined versions of both the Xbox and PS4 controller.

@@YathuU I would recommend the Galactic Purple (since its my favorite color 🟣), but if you can buy both, since they are both sick Really like the colors SONY is making for them, which you can combine with the RGB lightbar
Best review video!!! Concise, straight to the point and well explained! Thank you so much for making my decision easy! Definitely going to stick to PlayStation and get myself a dual sense !
Microsoft seems to have an edge in terms of ergonomics. They even have that nailed with some of their keebs I think. So maybe their department is more experienced and good at this
I do like both controllers but the D-Pad on the XSX is a deal breaker for me especially for fighting games. I hate how clicky it is and doesn’t feel comfortable at all.
Xbox controllers are really durable, and this is something I’ve seen across all their generations. Whereas switch joy cons and PlayStation Controllers always have some issue arise! Hope ur enjoying gaming :)
@@YathuU well thats a major factor that i wish you to talk about the moment i clicked on this video. I was really curious how these 2 holds up after 1 year of usage
I’ve been an Xbox user for a while, but as soon as I bought a ps5 it was hard for me to understand the feeling. After a few days, I’ve improved and prefer the duel sense compared to the Xbox controller.
I have a ps5 and pc I brought the xbox controller for pc .. I prefer the xbox controller because of the dpad but wtf is up with it taking batteries and not being chargeable by standard... like ps3 to 5 and switch pro....
I play ps5 because “body ergonomics” aren’t a dealbreaker for me. I used to play street fighter alpha 3 for 10 hours straight as a kid with a ps1 controller. Spent half my life on a ps2 survived the infamous n64, etc. what does matter to me is button layout, button ergonomics, whatever you call it. and if found that for fighting games imo symmetrical buttons are just the way to go. Xbox has the joystick in the most ergonomic spot, that’s great for shooters are open world games but for fighters, I need the dpad in that spot. Also since I don’t play shooters, I almost never need a headset, and for the few times a do play a game like that, I can just use my built in mic. It probably doesn’t sound the best but it’s not something worth buying a headset for. It’s good enough considering I’ll only use it on occasion.
As a PC gamer I have used both and found the Dual Sense is like holding a brick sideways. Compared to the Xbox the ergonomics are terrible, the controller is to awkward to hold onto, its too wide at the top, the face buttons are too small and spaced to far apart and the weird cutoffs at the bottom of the grips? WTF is up with that. Plus the Xbox just works with Windows and every game off the jump. Series S/X>DS4>DS5 IMO.
Only problem I've had with the Series X controller is the Start/Select buttons being a little too close to the Share button. I've taken screenshots when I didn't mean to at times.
the xbox controller costs considerably more than the playstation controller here in my country, it has fewer features and the singular reason i'm getting it for my pc is that i'm getting tired of waiting for DS4Windows updates, apart from that i really feel robbed, i will still have to fork out more money in the future for that "charge and play" battery since i'm not really in the mood of getting a full charger and rechargeable AA pack just for this one single thing in my house that still uses them
“Both controllers are an immense improvement from their previous controllers.” Really dude? You think the Xbox Series controller is an IMMENSE improvement over the last iteration? I’d say it just barely qualifies as an incremental upgrade. The dual sense is a truly next gen controller (whether anyone likes it or not is a different story) and I think you could classify the upgrades as immense… but I don’t think any interpretation of the world “immense” qualifies for the Xbox controller in terms of its “upgrades,” which are slim. Don’t get me wrong, I still like the way it feels in my hand and it’s a good controller… but it’s damn near the same controller as last time.
That might have to do with the fact that xbox one controller was miles better than the dualshock 4 so they didnt need to upgrade much where sony had to completely redesign . Both seem like good controller choice this time around .
@@falco642 The Xbox One controller was not miles ahead of the DualShock 4. The DS4 had built in touchpad and built in speaker. What did the Xbox controller have to compete?

@@falco642 Dude that’s a whole lot of words to simply say you like the ergonomics better. My comment was criticizing the statement of both controllers being an “immense improvement.” The Xbox controller hasn’t improved anything. I’m giving “points” to PlayStation in this category because they actually did add features. You might not like the features, but they’re there. Haptics and adaptive triggers are way better than speaker or touch pad, but even those secondary features are actually nice for some games. As for durability, agree to disagree… I haven’t had any DS4 or DualSense controllers go bad on me, including after years of consistent usage. You like the ergonomics better. I get it. But that has nothing to do with anything I have discussed. As for back buttons, it would be nice to have standard… but even on that front, I have the Xbox Elite 2 controller and the DualSense Pro. The PS5 pro controller blows the elite controller out of the water too honestly. I recognize some things as preference… but actual features and manufacturing quality I think it’s Sony hands down and I don’t think it’s really even debatable if we’re being objective. I’ve had every Xbox and every PlayStatjon since the originals. I’m not a fanboy for either one. Objectively, Xbox has nothing to offer that PlayStation doesn’t do better currently and that includes the controller.
@@Cortezuma yeah my bad i was more talking about the ds4 being pretty bad ergonomic/build quality wise. I guess xbox focusing on confort where ps focusing more on feature none is perfect ( exept of course my 20+year old gamecube controller pure perfection) Unfortunately i havent try the new dualsense controller yet since ps5 isnt really that interesting right now game wise and so is the xbox too at the moment that why im currently on pc pretty much the best of both world right now having pretty much every game from past generation / pc exclusive and ps/xbox games all starting to show up on pc. I kinda want to get a dualsense but xbox controller are just also the safer choice for pc and also is the cheaper option . I might still get one to see if i like it .
I know it won't happen ever because it's part of the Playstation's aesthetic, but I REALLY wish they would offset the analog sticks like the XBOX controller has been doing forever. It just feels right. Every time I play Playstation for awhile and then go back to XBOX the controller feels right at home because the ergonomics are so good, primarily because of the offset sticks IMO, but when I go back to the Playstation after playing XBOX for awhile I always have to readjust and it never feels quite right.
If you look closely at the handles, the Xbox controller handles angle out slightly more while ds handles are more vertical. I believe this difference is due to stick placements as the DS needs the vertical handles to keep the symmetrical buttons more accessible (wider). However, the handle placement and stick layout of Xbox controller is definitely more ergonomically comfortable because your wrists don’t bend as much with the Xbox handle angle placement. Because Sony made their handles more vertical, you either need to jam your elbows at your sides to avoid wrist bending or deal with the bent wrists. I wish Sony engineers would notice this. I wish Xbox engineers would notice the refined feel of the Sony buttons, which ironically I prefer to the clicky feel. I do prefer the Xbox triggers though, although the tension of the sony triggers are a cool feature. Hire me and I will make the ultimate ergonomic controller ☺️
I have to go with the most ergonomic comfortable controller over anything else and for me that's xbox controllers. Sony did great with features but I find those features fun for a few minutes and then I want to disable them. I've also seen a lot of people with small hands hating the dualsense ergonomic wise and even causes them pain. I always liked the dualshock 4 and dualsense ergonomically myself, well that is until I tried a controller that put sony's ergonomics to shame. The xbox controller is as close to perfect as it gets comfort wise. It's made to fit a wider variety of hand sizes compared to the dualsense. I'm seeing a ton of people loving dualsense features but a lot of gamers who are in pain after a couple hours of gameplay 🤔 xbox ergonomics are time tested while sony lacks in that aspect imo
Hmmm those are some very strong arguments 👌🏾 and I must agree the features on the dual sense are amazing but oftentimes can become an interference during gaming. And the ergonomics of the Xbox is absolute built to perfection
Aha it’s not that, the button travel feedback gets less responsive, and it’s something alot of people ik have experienced as well 🤷🏽♂️ but glad to have you on this channel mate! And happy holidays 🎉
A crucial difference especially for gaming, is the response time, but something even more crucial is the UPDATE rate of 250Hz for DualSense, and 124Hz for Xbox, which makes for less input lag and as well more precise quick stick movements. DS support for PC has been rapidly increasing in all areas, most importantly Sony releasing Firmware Updater for DS on PC.
XSX $60, PS5 $70. This is my first gen Ive ever picked Xbox over PS and the only thing I miss is the controllers. I dont like how the Xbox buttons feel like the are melting off the shoulder of the controller on the right side. I keep hitting the “O” button thinking its “X” but its B instead of A. Offset sticks are ok but my brain has been wired to play symmetrically for 20 years. I really miss the PS layout and the Dual Sense delivers on the immersion factor where Xbox has not kept up.
my childhood is always PS (had ps1, ps2, psp, ps3) and Nintendo (ds, 3ds, switch) and now im on PC gaming, my procon start drift and i'm wondering to get next gen controller the problem with Xbox is the layout button is different neither with ps and nintendo (its vice versa between xyba, and left analog position is above) i watched your video and had to choose PS in speak of subjectivity, but then again how about the durability? which one last longer with drift issue?
Hey thank you for popping by my channel! I find that the Xbox layout is relatively easier on the hand after time, but I can see it will take time for you to adjust. Now in terms of which was lasts longer, the Xbox box controller is more durable, and requires less frequent battery changes compared to the PS5 which frequently runs out of battery. Additionally, Xbox has no known drift issue as of yet. But overall, I love both controllers. I am debating if I should do a comparison on the Xbox Elite and PS5 Dual Sense Edge controller as well.
I have a series x controller I use on pc for sports games and my brother has a ps5 and I prefer the Xbox controller. It is way more comfortable and better on my hands. The ps5 controller gives me hand pain after an hour of use. If anyone has sensitive wrists and hands then my advice is to go with the Xbox controller.
I want to buy one of them but my budget is limited so if im gonna buy it i had to know that it will last for a good time . Which one is more durable (or have better build quality)?
Xbox Is just easier to use than the ps5 controller, especially for fighting games that require button mashing and diagonal inputs. It just feels more smoother than the ps5.
Being neutral that is fact since both controllers take totally different directions and at the end of the day your preferences and biases will determine which one you gravitate towards. There is no objective way to determine which is better than the other. Unless we have some way of conducting an empirical-based study assessing reaction times and ergonomically advantages and it’s impacts on reaction time. Some would prefer the DualSense and others the Xbox controller, and it comes down to just what their preferences for ergonomics of the controllers they have, and what features they value more.
Be real, the only good thing of the ps5 controller is gyro, but literally no one uses it. The rest is not only a gimmick but also makes you play worst especially in multiplayer games where every millisecond is crucial.
Hey I wouldn strongly suggest the Xbox controller for the PC because if has a longer battery life and more versatile. But for features the PS5 DualSense is a good pick.
Hey please help me I'm confuse actually, I love the dual sense feature but I am afraid will it work with pc or it is a headache, should I go for xbox controller?
I own both and I really enjoy both. I do prefer the Dualsense tho as it just feels better built. Idk the XSX feels like a bit cheaper and the lack of a rechargeable battery built in is a no go for me. Not to mention the PS5 has far superior rumble. Button clicks feel nicer and the convenience of being able to mute the game audio and use my voice for search dictations on the controller itself is amazing. Overall Xbox seems to have gotten lazy we’re as Sony pulled out all the stops to create an excellent controller
I agree its a hard pick that is why I said one is not better than the other, they serve their own purposes. Xbox battery lasts longer, but its the constant switching out of batteries or finding a battery is the annoying part, whereas the DualSense the battery runs out faster. But one could argue that I can charge it while gaming, but I usually game farther from my TV so its convenient for me when I have to move closer. But nonetheless, I enjoy both :)
@@YathuU I have a rechargeable battery pack in my Xbox so it’s not a major issue but it’s the fact that I gotta go out and buy batteries or a battery pack to be able to play my “next gen” console. I do love the way the Xbox controller feels though. Just hate how lazy it feels in comparison to the ps5. The SX controller just feels like a slightly slimmer XbOne controller.
so you made a video to tell what YOUR OPINION about both, and in the conclusion is that we should decide for ourselves? Theres no sense in this conclusion.
Hey thanks for coming by the channel, and to clarify this was a review to help viewers understand what they offer so they can choose what console/controller they will pick out. I had pointed out what the Xbox controller offers and what the DualSense offers and ultimately in the end, if I’m being completely unbiased, they both are amazing controllers but it depends what you are going for (as detailed in the video). But most of the time, an individuals “preferred” controller would tend to leans towards the console they grew up playing. But above all, they both offer their owns pros and cons.
@@YathuU im a pc'er so mostly it comes down to the triggers for racing games and staying as far a as i can from stick drift. From you experience, if you had to make a wild guess, which of them you think is more probable to get drifting?
@@EugenioHertz I honestly will say the DualSense has a higher change of stick drift, the Xbox sticks are pretty solid and haven’t heard of any cases of drift issues on the series x controller as of yet, but I’ve come across a couple of stick drift issues on the DualSense
Tbh I much prefer the Xbox series x controller. It's so comfortable, has better grip this time, perfect weight and balance of rumble. It's not some midget sex toy like the ps5's controller.
@@YathuU does Dualsense advanced haptic feedbacks benefit PC users via third party softwares like DS4Windows? Or these features are only present with PS5 console ?
Like in the video it depends on what your needs and preferences are. There isn’t always a winner. I highlighted pros and cons and you can decide which pro and cons apply to you the most! Happpy gaming!
Hi I have been a ps user for 7 years but now I'm thinking to switch to Xbox series x because it is cheaper here in Pakistan. Here ps5 costs 700 usd and not a dime less but Xbox is only like 440 usd so I'm forced to buy Xbox eventhough I want ps5 because my parents can't afford it so is there any game on game pass similar to gor if war so I may go there
Not all games work with ps5 controller I have ps5 ..i not feel good in trigger vibration …and if i play racing games vibration is not upto the mark … I cam from pc to ps5 (i used only one time xbox x controller ,i felt it heavy and but its to small compare to ps5 but ok ,when i have gun in game & shoot means i can feel the heavy gun holding in my hand and if i have small gun controller become less w8 But in forza horizon 5 i really enjoyed lot with controller each car has different to controller the car with that controller,each time i play a new car controller feedback looks new ..)sur i will sold my ps5 & go to xb sx only for foraza
Xbox controller has always been a better overall controller over any sony controller.Dual sense isnt going to change that lol.How about you explain why i have to charge a ps5 controller every couple hours ?
I got a ps5 and a Xbox 1 s wont ever upgrade to series x because the controllers are the exact same you can argue about the minimal things but ps has never made a consumer buy batteries for their controllers Xbox released 3 generations of consoles n couldn’t even include that feature. How many more console releases do you guys have to wait to get adaptive triggers when you ain’t even got a included rechargeable battery lol I still like Xbox tho just not worth a visual upgrade if your not getting a controller upgrade
I have to 100% agree, the Xbox controller feels more like a natural fit whereas the PS5 it took some getting used to! Hope your looking forward to that forza 5 drop in 4 days and Halo Infinite 😂🚀
@@YathuU yeah actually forza was the only reason i bought xbox. But when i got it, then i actually fell in love with game pass and quick resume and really got to love xbox more then ps5.

My comment was criticizing the statement of both controllers being an “immense improvement.” The Xbox controller hasn’t improved anything. I’m giving “points” to PlayStation in this category because they actually did add features. You might not like the features, but they’re there. Haptics and adaptive triggers are way better than speaker or touch pad, but even those secondary features are actually nice for some games. As for durability, agree to disagree… I haven’t had any DS4 or DualSense controllers go bad on me, including after years of consistent usage.
You like the ergonomics better. I get it. But that has nothing to do with anything I have discussed. As for back buttons, it would be nice to have standard… but even on that front, I have the Xbox Elite 2 controller and the DualSense Pro. The PS5 pro controller blows the elite controller out of the water too honestly.
I recognize some things as preference… but actual features and manufacturing quality I think it’s Sony hands down and I don’t think it’s really even debatable if we’re being objective.
I’ve had every Xbox and every PlayStatjon since the originals. I’m not a fanboy for either one. Objectively, Xbox has nothing to offer that PlayStation doesn’t do better currently and that includes the controller.
@@Cortezuma yeah my bad i was more talking about the ds4 being pretty bad ergonomic/build quality wise. I guess xbox focusing on confort where ps focusing more on feature none is perfect ( exept of course my 20+year old gamecube controller pure perfection)
Unfortunately i havent try the new dualsense controller yet since ps5 isnt really that interesting right now game wise and so is the xbox too at the moment that why im currently on pc pretty much the best of both world right now having pretty much every game from past generation / pc exclusive and ps/xbox games all starting to show up on pc.
I kinda want to get a dualsense but xbox controller are just also the safer choice for pc and also is the cheaper option .
I might still get one to see if i like it .
I know it won't happen ever because it's part of the Playstation's aesthetic, but I REALLY wish they would offset the analog sticks like the XBOX controller has been doing forever. It just feels right. Every time I play Playstation for awhile and then go back to XBOX the controller feels right at home because the ergonomics are so good, primarily because of the offset sticks IMO, but when I go back to the Playstation after playing XBOX for awhile I always have to readjust and it never feels quite right.
If you look closely at the handles, the Xbox controller handles angle out slightly more while ds handles are more vertical. I believe this difference is due to stick placements as the DS needs the vertical handles to keep the symmetrical buttons more accessible (wider). However, the handle placement and stick layout of Xbox controller is definitely more ergonomically comfortable because your wrists don’t bend as much with the Xbox handle angle placement. Because Sony made their handles more vertical, you either need to jam your elbows at your sides to avoid wrist bending or deal with the bent wrists. I wish Sony engineers would notice this. I wish Xbox engineers would notice the refined feel of the Sony buttons, which ironically I prefer to the clicky feel. I do prefer the Xbox triggers though, although the tension of the sony triggers are a cool feature. Hire me and I will make the ultimate ergonomic controller ☺️
I went from a ps4 controller to series x controller and it's not at all comfortable for me. My fingers get cramped after like 10 minutes of gaming 😭
I have to go with the most ergonomic comfortable controller over anything else and for me that's xbox controllers. Sony did great with features but I find those features fun for a few minutes and then I want to disable them. I've also seen a lot of people with small hands hating the dualsense ergonomic wise and even causes them pain. I always liked the dualshock 4 and dualsense ergonomically myself, well that is until I tried a controller that put sony's ergonomics to shame. The xbox controller is as close to perfect as it gets comfort wise. It's made to fit a wider variety of hand sizes compared to the dualsense. I'm seeing a ton of people loving dualsense features but a lot of gamers who are in pain after a couple hours of gameplay 🤔 xbox ergonomics are time tested while sony lacks in that aspect imo
Hmmm those are some very strong arguments 👌🏾 and I must agree the features on the dual sense are amazing but oftentimes can become an interference during gaming. And the ergonomics of the Xbox is absolute built to perfection
@@YathuU combine both the xbox controller and dualsense to get the perfect controller lol.
@@ocdgamer6030 ahahah DualBox Controller 😂
For me - main reason that DualSense are bad - is a worst battery life....
If your DualSense buttons are getting mushy maybe wash your hands a bit more often..?
Aha it’s not that, the button travel feedback gets less responsive, and it’s something alot of people ik have experienced as well 🤷🏽♂️ but glad to have you on this channel mate! And happy holidays 🎉
Nah, mate ps5 controller buttons are shit, the features are good. Idk if u know this but things don't last forever, they eventually break.
Hey can i use duelsence on pc wireless with haptic feedback? I don't have ps5
A crucial difference especially for gaming, is the response time, but something even more crucial is the UPDATE rate of 250Hz for DualSense, and 124Hz for Xbox, which makes for less input lag and as well more precise quick stick movements. DS support for PC has been rapidly increasing in all areas, most importantly Sony releasing Firmware Updater for DS on PC.
XSX $60, PS5 $70.
This is my first gen Ive ever picked Xbox over PS and the only thing I miss is the controllers. I dont like how the Xbox buttons feel like the are melting off the shoulder of the controller on the right side. I keep hitting the “O” button thinking its “X” but its B instead of A. Offset sticks are ok but my brain has been wired to play symmetrically for 20 years. I really miss the PS layout and the Dual Sense delivers on the immersion factor where Xbox has not kept up.
For me if Xbox got haptic feedback triggers and speaker it'd be a wrap all over again
Yes I would agree with you, but then again haptics should be less intense in my opinion
Still no games lol
my childhood is always PS (had ps1, ps2, psp, ps3) and Nintendo (ds, 3ds, switch) and now im on PC gaming, my procon start drift and i'm wondering to get next gen controller
the problem with Xbox is the layout button is different neither with ps and nintendo (its vice versa between xyba, and left analog position is above)
i watched your video and had to choose PS in speak of subjectivity, but then again how about the durability? which one last longer with drift issue?
Hey thank you for popping by my channel! I find that the Xbox layout is relatively easier on the hand after time, but I can see it will take time for you to adjust. Now in terms of which was lasts longer, the Xbox box controller is more durable, and requires less frequent battery changes compared to the PS5 which frequently runs out of battery. Additionally, Xbox has no known drift issue as of yet. But overall, I love both controllers. I am debating if I should do a comparison on the Xbox Elite and PS5 Dual Sense Edge controller as well.
Hi, I need a new controller for my PC. Which one of them would you suggest for a PC player?
I would strongly suggest you grab yourself the Xbox Controller for the PC
Which one has better gdpad for Tekken 8? DS4 or XBOX Series S?
I have a series x controller I use on pc for sports games and my brother has a ps5 and I prefer the Xbox controller. It is way more comfortable and better on my hands. The ps5 controller gives me hand pain after an hour of use. If anyone has sensitive wrists and hands then my advice is to go with the Xbox controller.
Small hands - PS controller
Big hands - X controller
Good way to put it
Now with the re 4 remake with the ps5 controller you can feel every step you do with leon
Which game are you playing ? 3:08
I want to buy one of them but my budget is limited so if im gonna buy it i had to know that it will last for a good time . Which one is more durable (or have better build quality)?
When it comes to durability I might side with the Series X controllers.
@@YathuU Thanks for reply mate :)
You hold both the dualsense and Xbox controller wrong, your index fingers don't go on the triggers.
Xbox Is just easier to use than the ps5 controller, especially for fighting games that require button mashing and diagonal inputs. It just feels more smoother than the ps5.
Complete opposite since you have to let go of the analogue sticks more often
If the Xbox had the ps5s triggers then it would be the one. I feel both has pros over the other. Shame we can’t have it all 😂
PS5❤️👏🏻
"don't let anyone tell you one is better than the other." idk abt the rest of you but thats why i came here.
Being neutral that is fact since both controllers take totally different directions and at the end of the day your preferences and biases will determine which one you gravitate towards. There is no objective way to determine which is better than the other. Unless we have some way of conducting an empirical-based study assessing reaction times and ergonomically advantages and it’s impacts on reaction time. Some would prefer the DualSense and others the Xbox controller, and it comes down to just what their preferences for ergonomics of the controllers they have, and what features they value more.
I’m a PlayStation guy but the Xbox x series controller is way better. I use it for my iPad Pro games.
Take a shot every time this guy says "controller"
Be real, the only good thing of the ps5 controller is gyro, but literally no one uses it. The rest is not only a gimmick but also makes you play worst especially in multiplayer games where every millisecond is crucial.
hey which controller would you recommend for playing on Pc
Hey I wouldn strongly suggest the Xbox controller for the PC because if has a longer battery life and more versatile. But for features the PS5 DualSense is a good pick.
@@YathuU thanks for answering, just put an order for xbox 20th anniversary controller
I mostly play online, the built in mic and the more responsive controller, dualsense hands down.
The built in mic is absolutely amazing 👌🏾
whats better for PC specifically for fifa ?
Hey please help me I'm confuse actually, I love the dual sense feature but I am afraid will it work with pc or it is a headache, should I go for xbox controller?
Hi.
thank you for a good informative video 🙏👍
which controller would you recomend for IOS devices such as on Apple tv 4k, ipad and iphones?
Hey! I would recommend the Series X Controller for iOS devices.
I own both and I really enjoy both. I do prefer the Dualsense tho as it just feels better built. Idk the XSX feels like a bit cheaper and the lack of a rechargeable battery built in is a no go for me. Not to mention the PS5 has far superior rumble. Button clicks feel nicer and the convenience of being able to mute the game audio and use my voice for search dictations on the controller itself is amazing. Overall Xbox seems to have gotten lazy we’re as Sony pulled out all the stops to create an excellent controller
I agree its a hard pick that is why I said one is not better than the other, they serve their own purposes. Xbox battery lasts longer, but its the constant switching out of batteries or finding a battery is the annoying part, whereas the DualSense the battery runs out faster. But one could argue that I can charge it while gaming, but I usually game farther from my TV so its convenient for me when I have to move closer. But nonetheless, I enjoy both :)
@@YathuU I have a rechargeable battery pack in my Xbox so it’s not a major issue but it’s the fact that I gotta go out and buy batteries or a battery pack to be able to play my “next gen” console. I do love the way the Xbox controller feels though. Just hate how lazy it feels in comparison to the ps5. The SX controller just feels like a slightly slimmer XbOne controller.
@@airspoon6 yess I can see where you come from! Anyways love having you on the channel! Hope to see you more often :)
@@YathuU I just plug the PlayStation charger wire into a apple charger plug don’t have to move at all
so you made a video to tell what YOUR OPINION about both, and in the conclusion is that we should decide for ourselves? Theres no sense in this conclusion.
Hey thanks for coming by the channel, and to clarify this was a review to help viewers understand what they offer so they can choose what console/controller they will pick out. I had pointed out what the Xbox controller offers and what the DualSense offers and ultimately in the end, if I’m being completely unbiased, they both are amazing controllers but it depends what you are going for (as detailed in the video). But most of the time, an individuals “preferred” controller would tend to leans towards the console they grew up playing. But above all, they both offer their owns pros and cons.
@@YathuU im a pc'er so mostly it comes down to the triggers for racing games and staying as far a as i can from stick drift.
From you experience, if you had to make a wild guess, which of them you think is more probable to get drifting?
@@EugenioHertz I honestly will say the DualSense has a higher change of stick drift, the Xbox sticks are pretty solid and haven’t heard of any cases of drift issues on the series x controller as of yet, but I’ve come across a couple of stick drift issues on the DualSense
@@YathuU so even the latest colors (pink purple blue - new boards and more resistant coils) are still having stick drift?
ps5 design just hurts the hand. I have asked lot of users.
I dont even own a PS5 but I want a dual sense. I just looks fantastic compared to my xbox controller.
It's trash, trust me.
Tbh I much prefer the Xbox series x controller. It's so comfortable, has better grip this time, perfect weight and balance of rumble. It's not some midget sex toy like the ps5's controller.
Ur moma be using a controller as a se toy ? 🤣
are your dual sense controller stil working?
Yes they are! I havent had any problems
Which is the best for pc ps5 or Xbox series x?
I personally prefer the Xbox controllers but there is no best, one is better for comfort (Xbox) and other is better for haptic feedbacks and etc (PS5)
But to answer your question, for PC I believe the Xbox is much better
@@YathuU is ps5 controller advantage work at pc
@@YathuU thank you bro
@@YathuU does Dualsense advanced haptic feedbacks benefit PC users via third party softwares like DS4Windows? Or these features are only present with PS5 console ?
I used to be like an xbox dude until i tried the controller 😢
The controller is bad? Lemme know please
So which one is better?? Don’t put versus if your not going to choose a winner what a waste of a video
Like in the video it depends on what your needs and preferences are. There isn’t always a winner. I highlighted pros and cons and you can decide which pro and cons apply to you the most! Happpy gaming!
If we wanted that we could’ve just asked chat gpt bro
Dualsense best
The series x controller sucks for people with above medium or large hands because of its tapered top design.
Hi I have been a ps user for 7 years but now I'm thinking to switch to Xbox series x because it is cheaper here in Pakistan. Here ps5 costs 700 usd and not a dime less but Xbox is only like 440 usd so I'm forced to buy Xbox eventhough I want ps5 because my parents can't afford it so is there any game on game pass similar to gor if war so I may go there
Cool video bro! But I think you could have added some background music.
Thank you for the kind words and amazing suggestion! Really appreciate it bro 👊🏽
Not all games work with ps5 controller
I have ps5 ..i not feel good in trigger vibration …and if i play racing games vibration is not upto the mark …
I cam from pc to ps5 (i used only one time xbox x controller ,i felt it heavy and but its to small compare to ps5 but ok ,when i have gun in game & shoot means i can feel the heavy gun holding in my hand and if i have small gun controller become less w8
But in forza horizon 5 i really enjoyed lot with controller each car has different to controller the car with that controller,each time i play a new car controller feedback looks new ..)sur i will sold my ps5 & go to xb sx only for foraza
Yes you are correct! Not all games have the features enabled with the dual sense controllers. Im happy you know what console you will enjoy :)
If you really decided to downgrade from PC to PS5 that's entirely on you lol
Ps5 controller hurts my hands it's too bulky not enough grip its worse than Xbox one controller
@@flip8023 yes I feel like the Xbox controller does feel better
Comfort wise and long gaming sessions series x controller is way better !
Xbox controller has always been a better overall controller over any sony controller.Dual sense isnt going to change that lol.How about you explain why i have to charge a ps5 controller every couple hours ?
Aha valid point! The dual sense does get annoying how you got to keep charging it
Eh
I bought a 10 foot extended cable for the PS controller. I never recharge it. I'm loving it.
I got a ps5 and a Xbox 1 s wont ever upgrade to series x because the controllers are the exact same you can argue about the minimal things but ps has never made a consumer buy batteries for their controllers Xbox released 3 generations of consoles n couldn’t even include that feature. How many more console releases do you guys have to wait to get adaptive triggers when you ain’t even got a included rechargeable battery lol I still like Xbox tho just not worth a visual upgrade if your not getting a controller upgrade
Xbox controller feels much better in my hand, while dual sense gives me pain while playing
I have to 100% agree, the Xbox controller feels more like a natural fit whereas the PS5 it took some getting used to! Hope your looking forward to that forza 5 drop in 4 days and Halo Infinite 😂🚀
@@YathuU yeah actually forza was the only reason i bought xbox. But when i got it, then i actually fell in love with game pass and quick resume and really got to love xbox more then ps5.
@@tsachie4822 I agree! I love game pass! So many games, so many options and you can never get bored and you can save from buying $90 games which is a total win
I'm getting pain with PS5 controller too. I'm looking to buy an Xbox because of just this.
@@TonyAFC85 it kills me because I like ps games more but I like my Xbox controller better I might get that pdp controller
This dude is 🧢🧢🧢. Dual sense is the best
In its own way for sure! Thanks for popping by fam!
It’s his opinion
Take a shot every time he says controller
Yeah Xbox is Kaka 💩💩 PS5 all the way my G
Ahah PS5 is your go to right fam 👊🏽
