How good is the PlayStation 5's first Pro controller? Find out in our DualSense Edge review:
Controller x 1, USB braided cable x 1, carrying case x 1, connector housing x 1, stick cap x 2, high dome caps x 2, low dome caps x 2, half dome back buttons x 2, lever back buttons x 2, instruction manual.Anyone experienced with competitive gaming knows just how important it is to have tight control over your input.
If PlayStation were ever to release a second edition of the DualSense Edge controller, the ability to turn the trigger into a switch would be a highly coveted feature.One of the most heavily anticipated features that the DualSense Edge will be offering is the hot-swappable analog sticks. Owners of modern games consoles know just how irritating stick-drift is. For the uninitiated, stick-drift happens your controller records analog stick movement without you touching it.
The hot-swappable analog sticks are one of the most useful features included in the DualSense Edge controller, as a bonus, changing them out is as satisfying as piecing together Lego.Just below the analog sticks are the function keys – which can be customised in your PS5’s settings. You can give your controller a custom profile and you can also select a number of custom button assignments here.
Our initial experience with swapping the paddles out was slightly tricky. The slot you slide the button into is small and fiddly, but it is magnetised meaning that once you get the initial insert the rest is easy.The controller will set you back $199, so you’d hope to notice its effect as soon as you load up a game. Our thoughts with the controller are that it’s mainly suited to anyone playing FPS games – so naturally we booted up Modern Warfare 2.
