[WYP]

Don't worry, Sony's bundling their controller with a long charging cable...

At that price I would expect double the battery life of the original!


Ah Sony the company that charges a fortune for poorly made tat these days!

Should be called the Nosense controller.

I dunno, I found the Xbox elite controller a huge improvement over the original. The programmable triggers and adjustable paddles (depending on type of game) were nice, and reduced finger fatigue during those long sessions.

What is ridiculous is the battery life. Mine will get around 5 or 6 days of moderate playtime before needing a charge. No clue what battery Sony are using but its probably cheap as they come to keep costs down from their already overpriced product.

It's probably the same battery as the standard controller but all these added functions deplete it faster. Original one last 2 days max depending on play time

£210 for a controller you clearly have no sense.

For that you can buy an absolutely killer KBM combo.

Was referring to the controller itself, not the price. And anyway. I paid about £200 for my controller. Which is the cheaper side of it in Norway

Not many games on PS or Xbox consoles support mouse or keyboard use.

Price is mad for that controller, but so is getting a KBM for a PS5 or Xbox until game devs start implementing support.
