    Been using it for about a month now and it’s my favorite controller. It might take a few days to get used to the paddles but once it feels natural it feels so nice. The price is steep but there are plenty quality of life features that make it worth it imo.

    How are the face buttons after this amount of time using it? Are they still crisp? The edge felt that it was softer to push than the standard DualSense, but it might have been a design decision. Takes a bit of getting used to, but it worries me a bit regarding the durability of the membranes.

      @@iamthegamingnerd Nice to know. I mean, you'd see boatloads of complains in forums regarding this "mushy" button, but I kind of feel like this is by design and it actually feels pretty good ergonomically as I've been using a much cheaper controller on PC (Gulikit) with way crisper buttons. They're what I used to be used with and getting the dualsense edge, gave me an initial impression of an abused controller button (but it was just me at the beginning lol). Overall, I prefer this short distance button presses now and if it's all good with you then I've nothing to complain then :)

When sony released the dualsense, ans the steam deck came out I was like wow.... that fits perfectly in my hands :) plus the gyro as a mouse, huge win with the touchpad.

    @Virru112 Před rokem +14

    Great to finally see someone with a longer term usage review on Edge. Even better that it's from the UK :) I bought mine last week, mainly for COD on my PC. I love the build and the grip that the pattern provides. The paddles are great and I love the click mechanism. I previously used Sony's back button attachment and KontrolFreeks on a DS4. Only issue I found was that the sticks had ridiculous stick drift that before I updated the software. A minor gripe would be that I would have liked for the L2/R2 buttons to be a little more shallow for a quicker press. Overall, I think it's better than the Elite, as it has removable sticks whilst the Elite doesn't. The Elite also has major issues with faulty buttons and stick drift. Also, their rubber grip had a tendency to start falling off.
    Have you found any issues with stick drift as of yet? I don't think it was mentioned.

    • @iamthegamingnerd
      @iamthegamingnerd  Před rokem +1

      No issues with stick drift myself - no which is why I didn't mention it being a problem. And it's kind of a mute point because you can get replacements? 🤷‍♂️ ... and obviously everything is subjective but I don't actually like super shallow triggers - I have an aim controller that has mouse button triggers and I hate it - I like to FEEL the press to sync with my brain I have done something but, maybe that's just the boomer in me. 😂

    I was so against this controller at first just because of the price, but after having one it is definitely worth it. I like you can change out the joysticks and go buy them as well instead of having to buy a new controller like the regular dual sense. It feels better in the hand for me. Those back paddles are cool and I have set mine based of what game I would be playing. Now the battery does go quick, at least imo, but not a problem. Being able to adjust the triggers is another plus for me. Playing FPS has gotten easier for me and playing all other games I set triggers accordingly. I love the controller and hopefully they will bring it in different colors. I keep this as a main and my dual sense as a back up or something the kids can use if they want to play.

      Yes as long as the game your playing has the ability to use a controller. You push and hold the PS Button and Share button and it will go into pairing mode. The only issue is that you can only pair it to one device at a time. I’ve played COD through remote play on my IPad Pro 12.9 M2. It’s a bit small but I’m not great anyway. Once paired you can go into iPadOS settings/general/controller and change settings which is more for dual sense controllers since Edge already has that functionality.

    Let’s be real, The Xbox elite series 1/2 are the BEST “pro” model controllers, from the Control & the carrying case as well as accessories & battery life. I’ve had both Series 1 & 2 and have had ZERO issues with them besides my hand sweat causing the rubber gripping from the series one to loosen & peel off after 4 years. I also love having 4 paddles instead of 2 & the ability to tune each thumpstick to my liking. I do own a PS5 and the edge as well and love how it’s still feels like the original dualsense with all the 1st party features it has but having to always charge it so often, the noise the triggers make after a while as well as only having 2 paddles are some of the negatives but the positives out weigh those few negatives, as well as costing around $25 more than Xbox’s.

    I love the controller. My biggest gripe is that the rubber grips have started peeling on both sides. I bought this controller for longevity so that's pretty annoying. I would have preferred to just have plastic grips.

    It's definitely game changing ... I have modded dualsense but the edge is just so much better. Battery life tho is horrid so buying a second one to swap em. 4 paddles would be worth an extra 50.

      Absolutely hear you. The battery life is a pain in the arse - but comfortability and ergonomics it's the best hands down. The Victrix BFG comes close but I don't like not having rumble or haptics etc.

    Battery life makes perfect sense with these controllers: they have MOTORS for vibration AND triggers(requires tons of power,) and constantly changing and constant ON lights.
    Hold: up, right, and square to turn off some of the lights. Then, you can take apart the controller, unplug the mic so you don't have to have the mute light on. THEN, turn off all the vibration or set to low, and turn the lights to "dim" in the settings. Yep, its that easy😂. Dam stuff they make just to try and force people to buy charging stations and 979 controllers. Anyway, thx for review. :)

    Battery life must be improved. The spring or whatever in the triggers needs to be stronger on the reset. Grip should be tackier. Other than that I have been pleased.

    The battery life issue *is significant* don't say it isn't
    you say you played 300 hours wich means that you had to charge that controller 60 times for 200$
    *yet you had to charge it 60 times for merely 300 hours so out of those 300 hours around 35 to 50 hours were you charging the controller as you used it*
    this isn't a small issue since the Dualsense Edge is worth almost 3 times the price of a regular controller ...

      Apparently on COD you do something like 100 cycles on your sticks every minute. And the modules are designed for something like 2,000,000 cycles. So your controller will go in a few months. Who knew! 🤣

      Hall effect modules are not yet proven to be cost effect or better performance (in terms of aiming and movement) only that they are much less likely to get stuck drift BUT they can still get stuck drift.

    I'm on my 3rd one, stick drift and I wasn't going to pay for the modules with both as they was within the 12 month warranty, sony was good enough to replace it twice but next time I'm guessing it will be out of warranty and I'll have to get new modules
