  • Playstation users were actually wrong. Will using wired communication on PS5 controller actually improve performance.. & reduce input lag? Don't do this. In fact, using wired connection on PS4 DualShock 4 can make input delay worse! Here's why. I tell you the real way to reduce input lag on Playstation 5 easy.

    The polling rate for USB on DS4 is 1/4 that of Bluetooth.

    Also if you play at 30fps you'll have more input lag as it takes more time to show a frame on display during each second because it has to refresh (or repeat) each frame more times before going to the next frame of animation meaning that since 1 second= 1000 milliseconds you'll get
    1. 1000/30fps= 33 milliseconds of delay
    2. 1000/60fps=16 to 17 milliseconds of delay
    Also on top of that delay caused by the amount of fps, there's the additional delay caused by the controller you use, the display you use as some do more image processing than others which causes even more delay (motion interpolation being the biggest offender), also if you're online your connection plays a role (and a big one at that)

Unfortunately I can't use the Bluetooth 😢

    Input lag is one thing, interference is another. Since the objective is to have a stable low-lag input, they are both just as important. Bluetooth gets the occasional stutter from interference whereas it doesn't happen over USB. This has been my experience on both the PS4 and PS5.

    @SpacedogD Před 2 lety +37

    There is a caveat, using wireless can result in inconsistent input latency due to interference. It might make sense if you are into latency consistency (e.g. rhythm games) over getting the lowest possible latency. On my ps4 controller which is aging, the bluetooth connection is very weak and it is very easy to see the input signal latency vary wildly when someone walks pass you.
    So while in general wireless should result in lower input latency, the downside is the variance and inconsistency of the latency can be detrimental.

      I thought there was less input delay with wired connection because when I'm playing rhythm games I'm able to press buttons in quick succession with more consistency.

    It's true that latency isn't noticably different. But the benefit with the cable over wireless is that you will never risk dropping any packets. Which can happen for various reasons. Like being to far away from the console, or having other devices interfere with the signal.

    Whilst what you say is true, I still wouldn't recommend Bluetooth at least for the PS5.
    When measuring average input delay, USB is extremely consistent and seldom deviates from its average. Wireless on the other hand has a higher average, with lots of high peaks. Rocket Science's CZcams channel tested this.
    So on PS4 you're effectively making a trade off between responsiveness and consistency. It depends what you play. If you're executing repeated actions and to be as consistent as possible, like say playing Rocket League at a high Rank, you may want to use USB. For a game that doesn't solely rely on mechanics but does benefit from speed like CoD, playing Bluetooth may be best.
    On PS5 the polling rate appears to be the same between both input methods, which makes USB a no brainer especially if you're playing at a desk. You get the fastest input and extremely consistent input together.

      As a ps5 owner I can confirm it makes no difference if you use the controller wired or Bluetooth both input methods are the same for the system. Who ever did the in-depth analysis for it is spot on . You can play the controllers wired or Bluetooth it wouldn’t make an difference while on PS4 controllers there’s a significant sudden change . I personally would recommend using Bluetooth on the ps5 as it’s more improved compared to PS4 and the input lag is just the same as if you played wired no matter what.

    My biggest gripe is they stuck with the smooth raised edge thumbs sticks and my fingers slip right off of them. There is a slight gap because right next to the ridge is a depression and they are too smooth. Not good for sweaty hand people. My fingers stay on ps3 controllers better because i grip different and it kind of rolls to edge of thumb a bit when angled or my thumb slips off easier. Ps3 grips are much better. I go back and forth alot between my ps3 and ps4. And to be honest i like the lightness of the ps3 and the fact my hands are a bit closer together. Fills more comfy.

The first controller out of no where got serious stick drag. Then I had two of them have the same problem with the charging port. I bought new wires thinking maybe the charging wires had worn out, only to find out it’s the actual controller that just won’t charge anymore.

      The issue is just dirt and dust that slipped under the stick. You can sort of temporarily fix it by blowing air in the side of the stick. Most of the time the dust is too deep for any air to make a difference so you would have to take the controller apart which most people don’t want to do so they either buy a new one or forever complain about stick drift.

    you’re wrong about input lag being worse through usb on past gen consoles. Digital Foundry specifically tested this in Uncharted and found that wired usb had a better input lag than wireless bluetooth. Polling rate does not equal overall input lag, it is just a measurement of how many times in an interval does the signal update, it has nothing to do with how fast that signal is received and processed which are also major components of overall input lag.

    The Xbox 360 was better on wired connection by design which is probably where PlayStation users are assuming the same but over time wireless has sped up a LOT. There was a 20% decrease in latency from Xbox 360 to Xbox One for example. Same as monitor latency has dropped back from CRT to plasma and then TFT etc. My old Pioneer plasma was awful playing games like COD for example.

    You've got to go in the settings and switch it to wired connection.
