" ... But overall it's a great controller. ... "
" ... This controller feels way better than the original PS4 controller I had. ... "
" ... Works as expected on all versions of PS4 systems. ... Yes I have one of each PS4 incarnation and tested it on each one. ... I play video games to enjoy the alternate reality generated in game. ... With this controller I can generally do well enough to survive the painfully few PS4 games that are not too difficult to play. ... "
" ... These new dualshock controllers are, on one hand, not a very exciting upgrade from the old PS3 dualshock controllers. ... "
" ... Love this controller! ... "
" ... Great PS4 DualShock controller ... "
" ... This is a official PlayStation controller. ... Works exactly like the standard black controllers that come with the PS4 console. ... The advantage to using this controller is if you every want to sell the console at a GameStop, they don’t accept any controllers with PS4 trades. ... "
" ... Regular ps4 controlles works perfectly fine brand new ... "

" ... However this one and a red one I just purchased work perfectly fine. ... "
" ... The main reason I'm reviewing it is as a PSA for anyone who, like me, has had to buy replacement controllers because of a chewing pet. ... After buying two new controllers, including this one, I finally wised up. ... "
" ... Its nice, ive had it for roughly 2 months and no problems at all it works good and its the new generation controller so it doesn't have sticky buttons so you can run in call of duty lol ... "

" ... Worked as expected! ... "

" ... Better grip and leaner. ... "
" ... Sturdy original and working good so far after 4 months of rough usage ... "
" ... But they have a good feel and seem sturdier and perhaps more durable than the old controllers which, in my experience, seemed to break very easily. ... "
" ... The blue really stands out. ... "
" ... Seems more stable and the R3 and L3 coating feels better. ... "
" ... Feels more durable than the older versions. ... "
" ... The shape is comfortable and grippy. ... I prefer the bumpers and triggers of the DS4 over alternatives (the switch pro is close though). ... The short throw, and half clicky half soft feel are great. ... The dpad just feels good. ... "
" ... Kids have been using them almost daily since on summer break and they are holding up just fine. ... "

" ... Plus the direct replacement controller always works perfectly even if it doesn’t have some turbo keys or lights that flash. ... "
" ... Get controls that have rubberized grips for greater control. ... "
" ... The grip is better, buttons feel softer and better to click. ... "
" ... Steam lets you do all kinds of cool stuff with it, like assigning different buttons to clicking different parts of it, or to just tapping it, or creating small custom popup menus that you can select from. ... It's fun when you're surprised by something coming out of it, even if it is just menu nav sounds. ... It is good for both menu nav and platformers. ... I prefer the lower, easier to reach position of the PS button over the locations of the home buttons on the xbox or switch controllers. ... "
" ... Well not much as far as button design an layout goes, but it does come with a good number of qualify of life changes that are exceptional if you ask me. ... "
" ... Four stars would have been five if the keys were quieter. ... "
" ... The one that was sent to me one of the buttons sticks but great product overall ... "

" ... You may have to watch a video on how to properly sync the controller ... "
" ... Also, I switched to an xbox one controller for primary use and found it much better in every way (for me), so my second one was limited to remote play (living room PC is in a different room from PS4). ... That is more than I can say about most bluetooth hardware I've used. ... Lets you play remote play on your PC. ... "
" ... This also helps if you have a PS4 that has a damaged internal wireless receiver and your controllers have been finnecky. ... "
" ... Just remember to sync the unit with your PS4. ... "
" ... All the buttons work and it connects to my ps4. ... "
" ... Standard, current gen PS4 controller, so it'll work while connected over USB (and therefore should work with a PC or Mac pretty easily.) ... "
