The Dual sense edge is a great controller for those want all the features of the base DS, but with a few premium features.\n\nLet's start with the design, you get the familiar dual sense look, but with some additional heft, due to the new stick module and back paddle set up.\n\nStick drift seems to be fairly common with DS controllers, so having the option to quickly swap out the sticks is great. I hope Sony someday offers a Hall Effect/TMR option, but that would definitely come with a premium, since they wouldn't likely need to be replaced.\n\nSoftware is another highlight of the controller, the built in software for the PlayStation makes set up and tuning a breeze.\n\nBut the real star of the show is the additional paddles. You get two rear programmable paddles, either the long stem style paddles or the half dome option.\n\nBoth are aluminum and great to use, but I prefer the half dome.\n\nMy two biggest issues with the Edge are...\n\n1: Only having two buttons, due to another company owning the patent on the four paddle design, Sony has opted for two.\n\n2: The battery life, man this controller has some seriously bad battery life. I was only able to squeeze out around 2-3 hours of consitent game time, before switching controllers or reaching for the charging cable.\n\nAt the asking price, battery life should have been improved. over the base DS, but likely due to the space needed for the stick modules and paddles, they actually went with a smaller battery.\n\nIt's a great first attempt at a Pro controller from Sony, but with a revision they may be able to improve on my complaints.\n\nBut that is likely a PS6 option, since I can't imagine a new model releasing on the PS5.
