Introduction

This review dives deep into the experience of using this wireless controller designed for PS4, PS4 Slim, PS4 Pro, and PC. Having spent considerable time gaming with it, I’ll share my honest assessment of its strengths and weaknesses.

Features

This controller boasts a range of features aimed at enhancing the gaming experience. The standout features include its Bluetooth connectivity, promising lag-free gameplay up to 10 meters. The advertised 8-10 hours of playtime on a single 2-3 hour charge is also a significant selling point. Beyond the core functionality, the inclusion of dual vibration, a clickable touchpad, built-in speaker, and a 3.5mm audio jack provides added immersion and convenience. The ergonomic design and non-slip materials aim for comfortable extended play sessions. The share button is a nice touch for quick social media sharing of gameplay highlights. This controller also incorporates a 6-axis motion sensor adding another layer to gameplay.

Performance

In practice, the Bluetooth connectivity proved remarkably stable. I experienced minimal latency during intense gaming sessions, even at the maximum advertised range. The battery life lived up to expectations, consistently delivering around 8-9 hours of playtime on a single charge, which is more than sufficient for most gaming sessions. The dual vibration motors provided satisfying feedback during gameplay. The touchpad felt responsive and precise. The audio from the built-in speaker wasn’t high fidelity but sufficient for game alerts. The controller felt comfortable in hand during extended play sessions, as advertised. The 6-axis motion sensor worked flawlessly, adding an immersive experience to compatible titles. The only slight drawback is connection to PC required a cable.

Pros & Cons

• Pros: Stable Bluetooth connection, long battery life, dual vibration, responsive touchpad, built-in speaker, comfortable ergonomic design, 6-axis motion sensing, share button.
• Cons: PC connection requires a cable (or adapter). Audio quality from the built-in speaker is not exceptional.

Final Verdict

Overall, this wireless controller delivers a solid gaming experience. The combination of reliable connectivity, extended battery life, and multiple useful features makes it a strong contender in its price range. While the audio quality from the built-in speaker isn’t top-notch, it’s a minor drawback compared to its other strengths. I highly recommend this controller to anyone looking for a reliable and feature-rich option for their PS4 or PC gaming.
