DualSense Edge: The First Hands-On

We went to PlayStation’s USA headquarters for the first hands-on with the DualSense Edge. Here's what we learned after spending a few hours playing games like God of War: Ragnarok, Apex Legends, Street Fighter V, and more with the premium controller for the PS5.

Why is no one talking about the battery life 🚩 if you ask me

[R.Kardos]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LMAO
It's like Grimace in a bubblegum wig.

[rjperoxide]

The replaceable sticks have me interested. But for 200?

[t__uncensor]

Just needed 4 paddles!!😭 Why does Sony always skip the obvious?!!

[Clarkzer]

Replaceable analog sticks are interesting, everything else is expected from a modern, high end controller. Glad Sony is finally catching up, might snag this and keep the included controller as backup for multiplayer.

[jj_zeroshiki]

Replaceable analog sticks are a nice feature in theory, but it's kind of pointless if all the replacement modules use potentiometers instead of hall effect sensors

[jim]

this hands on told me basically nothing that the Sony press releases hadn’t already

[joshallisn]

I'm really hoping you will be able to make all these software configurations like adjusting deadzones, etc., on PC!

[theaapudb]

Typical IGN.. tells us nothing more that trailer didnt tell us

[ShinjiKay]

Any word on d-pad customization? Or at least the ability to replace the rubber contact pad once it starts to feel too "mushy"?

[lichmeister]

Battery life is allegedly worse than the regular PS5 controller which is already pretty bad..

[KraftyMattKraft]

Lack of analog stick lengths disappoints me, but the customizable deadzone feature sold me on this controller.

[lawbinson]

Wish they would do mouse and keyboard on Console so there’s no need to get a gaming PC

[Aurkus]

Might buy it just for the replaceable analog sticks. Tired of my controllers developing drift.

[worstenbroodje]

Why glossy piano black on a controller? That thing is ALWAYS gonna look disgusting with fingerprints and smudges. And than still use potentiometer joysticks in a premium controller? This thing just screams cash grab to me.

Eeeew you didn’t bother to clean the crud under your nails first? 🤢

[coryklein]

PlayStation missed the boat by not having thos released by Christmas.

[VincentGonz]

I'm glad to see PS5 is incorporating the modularity of the Xbox elite controller in it's own way. Can't wait to try it out.

[semikon]

You can buy a small Xbox on sales for 200$!

[brunexpowerpt]

And the question of the year is
What about the Battery Life?
