DualSense Edge: For PS5 players
The DualSense Edge is Sony’s “pro” controller for the PS5. Is it his feature? Be completely modular. The user can add buttons to the back, swap sticks, and even adjust the resistance of the triggers. A little extra: It comes with a hard case so you can carry it anywhere! It’s a nice controller for those who want to play competitive games or just want to have a pad tailored to their preferences. Of course it also works on PC.
- excellent handling
- Customize keys
- Easily repairable
- high price
- Battery life is less good than the classic DualSense
- A bit too clever design
