The first is that the battery life is laughably short. 4-8 hours as advertised, but on and off usage tends to give it a bit more time before draining completely. The nature of its bluetooth antennae allows it to be pretty quickly synced up to other devices including different PS4s, PCs, laptops, tablets and more. The other complaint is that Sony made it very difficult to open up this controller for repairs. This was done by design to prevent consumers from fixing them themselves. Once inside the controller's face, you must carefully disconnect a ribbon cable and then take out the battery to reach the other parts more easily for cleaning, replacing and fixing. The modular nature of this controller's guts however makes many of the fixes of problematic components easy with a bit of soldering for those who don't want to send their controller out and pay Sony to fix it.
**Finally, let's talk about the Nintendo Switch. With the help of a reliable bluetooth adapter like 8bitdo's Retro Receiver (A 20 dollar accessory any multiconsole gamer should have), it is possible to use the DualShock 4 (and many other bluetooth controllers) with the Switch. In order to connect, you hit the sync button on the receiver and then hold the Share and PS/Home buttons simultaneously. This will make the controller light up. You will know if you are successful if the light flashes in doubles and then stays blue. The ONLY issues this presents is that A and B are swapped (Circle/O confirms and Cross/X cancels in menus) and the Switch will never show playstation buttons on its games, so you may need to experiment at times to figure out which PS4 buttons are the equivalents on a Switch Pro Controller. Triggers on PS4 are the Switch's Z shoulder buttons. L1/R1 are the bumpers.)
Overall, fantastic color and controller. Highly recommended. When in doubt, always stick to 1st party accessories. Five Stars.
Pros:
-Unlike the Xbox equivalent, the Sony DualShock puts the D-Pad first. This is great for some genres, such as fighting games. It's potentially less good for others, such as shooters. Overall though, the Dual-Shock definitely has one of the better d-pads among its competitors.
-Triggers are shaped correctly. Sony shaped its triggers backward on previous controllers, so when you pulled, the controller could squirt out of your hands. Now the triggers are shaped correctly, fixing this longstanding issue.
-Battery life is good-but-not-great. I can easily get a day's play on one charge, but it does have to be recharged daily. Avid gamers might actually need some extra controllers charging all the time just to keep up.
Cons:
-Battery cannot be replaced under warranty. Sony hopes you'll throw the controller in the garbage and buy a new one. It's fairly simple to change the battery is you have basic tools (drivers and spadgers), but Sony would still prefer you to spend more with them than service yourself.
-The touchscreen is a gimmick. It doesn't get used in almost any game I play, nor would I want it to be.
-The on-controller speaker is a gimmick. Annoyingly, there is no universal way to switch this off. Many games, such as "Project CARS", play certain sounds on the controller at a constant volume no matter how your TV is set. That's really dumb. The only way to fix this is to use a headset with your controller, which I don't bother to do, so I just try to avoid games with this annoying feature.
-The light on the front of the controller is mostly annoying to me. It lights up my room when I'm playing at night, which is just annoying in most games. I went into the menu and turned the light to its minimum setting, so now I never notice that it exists except for that moment when I look to see if the controller turned on.
-The "Share" and "Option" buttons are very poorly placed. You need to wedge your thumb into the nook of the controller, and many games put an important menu on the Options button, so you have to access it all the time. That's really annoying. I'd rather have these buttons on the face of the controller, than have the buttons so hard to access.
Overall:
This controller has some serious flaws, but considering the pluses - like the correctly shaped triggers - I'd still say it's one of the better DualShock controllers ever made. Definitely worth an upgrade for anyone - even PC users - looking for a great controller.
I like the color scheme, had plenty of the gray camo controllers, needed a refresh.
Took forever and a day to get here though. Seriously over 45 days for an item that allegedly PRIME
