sorted byCan you please stop making attractive controllers. I only play single player games & I already have 5 new controllers. Please stop I beg you.
Yours sincerely
The man who is just about to buy this controller.
This colour scheme is tidy.
No you can use on board Bluetooth if your laptop or PC has it.
I'm very much in this camp too.
Don't get me wrong, the PS5 controller, for me, is the best controller Sony has ever made. The ergonomics are lightyears ahead of the PS4 controller for me personally and the haptics blow the XSeX controller out of the water.
But as a fairly big 6'4" guy, I still find the PS5 controller absolutely massive! Even despite loving the haptics, I'd still choose the XSeX controller any day because it just feels perfectly comfortable and natural. It might not have the bells and whistles of the PS5 controller, but the refinement MS did between generations has made for an absolutely glorious controller. If they add haptics, I'd say it will be just about perfect.
Not sure, but these are the tech specs from their UK page..
Can't remember what style it was called when I bought it on a deal. But I do like how it looks. Use it in NMS quite a lot.
What does that added middle button do that you can see in the link from the one advertised here, but missing on mine...?
Is that related to the "share" feature..?
EDIT: Seems that it is a dedicated share button, for sharing screenshots etc whilst playing a game.
Heat added btw OP (edited)
I've had both since launch and was initially like you, amazed with the ps5 pad. Astros really helped push me that way. Over time though I've become annoyed with the haptics(triggers) and end up turning it off on most games, they are a hindrance more so than a help. The ps5 pad also needs constant recharging.
The Xbox pad has its own issues. But I'd take the sturdy build, better grip(for me) and better battery life. Over the ps5 haptics., Which I've only seen done well in insomniac games (r+c and miles Morales) and Astros.
People advising I won't get the full features using the Bluetooth connection only so they recommended using the wireless adapter.
It's a me, Mario
I believe your controller to be for the Xbox one, whereas the pad in this post is for the series X/S
Having used both controllers, the ps5 is world's better. The vibration alone is far more communicative, and dynamic than the Xbox. Plus the added features such as built in speaker and mic and touchpad make the Xbox pad feel very last gen.
Phil Spencer has already conceded that MS will be making changes to their pad after analysing the DualSense, so expect a revised version in the near future. (edited)
(Ps, it can also look purple in certain light)

There's Xboxes in stock everyweek you just need to get the stock apps
Don't worry, you can use them with Xbox One!
Brings up the game bar/interface. Tbf this is the best controller you can buy for PC.
what still :/
Yeah, you are right. I do not have a console and only bought it for my PC with a USB wireless dongle.
The model / style type of mine is called "Recon Tech".
It works well.
didn't realise that there are differences favouring the newer Xbox.
Sony never learn about battery life last gen battery life was terrible looks like they carried that over to the current gen.
It's a beauty!
That made me giggle! Like you I'm about to buy this one!
Edit: I think it was to do with my payment card. It's not expired but they didn't like it apparently. I believe I have chosen PayPal instead but can't confirm if it's worked or not (edited)
