Wired Compact Control, Red

Although a bigger, different shape from the dualshock 4, small divets in joysticks actually give a pretty decent feel and grip. Timing is decent, I play NHL and The Show on it and I have no problems with reaction. It is wired but its 6ft so I have no problems with tripping or accidentally yanking out cords. Overall solid replacement for the now diamond-in-the-rough Dualshock 4

Ive been rough with this controller! I’ve played Dayz, call of duty Cold War, assassins creed odyssey, metal gear solid Fantom pain, fallout 4, mass affect 2,3,4 all on ps4 and no lag at all. I have had no issues. Now if you only play FPS on ps4 I am sure you will see some small difference. But I myself cannot. I highly recommend this controller.

I Love how close this feels to the original Sony Wireless Controllers. Tho, my EMF Meter shows that Sony Wireless Controllers are just as lethal as a Cellphone. So, this is the best Wired controller Ive found so far! This is Recommended for Apex and, all first person shooters. Tho, its 90% great on fighting games. 1. The touch pad is too close to the Square Botton and there's no way to shut off the pad. When i opened one of these controllers and disconnected the D-pad, it also disconnected the start button as one piece. 2. D-pad and botton accuracy is 90ish at best. Big disappointment if ur going online to play ranked. Not reliable enough. 3. These controllers break if you drop them too many times. 4 to 5 drops will give you "Analog Drift". I have about 4 of these controllers around my apartment, for parts. This bright orange color makes it easier to see. So, i dont kick it or trip the cord as much. Apparently, i recommend it and will it buy again.

The controller definitely gets the job done for the price. The sturdy long cable for the controller ensures that you will have a solid connection and can play from a comfortable distance. Everything functions as it should. The controller has a very comfortable soft texture to it which helps for long gaming sessions where you might get sweaty palms. The buttons have a more tactile feel to them which i prefer over the mushy feeling of the standard dual shock 4 controller.

I did get this because I do have smaller hands. I immediately noticed the difference between it and wireless-- was pleasantly surprised was that apparent right off. Issue for me is it doesn't suit playing style I use in several games. The bumpers and triggers have enough of a gap, that (with smaller hands fingers) makes an awkward little jump if using just index finger. If using index on bumper, and middle on trigger the set-up is such where the trigger is in spot where middle finger position is more forward than the index finger. It places hands in weird sort of claw position that feels incredibly counter-intuitive. To note vs Dual Shock: The thumb sticks are simple concave one piece tops and L3 feels a bit more finicky. The D-pad is a little slippy. It's easier to trip & had some initial errors, but once I adjusted I found it to be faster and smoother than DS for me. Most button operations in general are great and feel hair smoother, except for bumper/trigger, which bit more 'clicky'. This definitely doesn't feel like it'll become my go-to controller, but I'm going to experiment a bit to see if might work for me with some games and if playing style can be adapted for some others, because overall, it's a nice little unit.

All right first things first you would expect the controller to be crappy for $49 You would be wrong I was I have bought many controllers from Amazon as a substitute for the dual shock. I have search long and hard for a good substitute and this guy is the best First thing you can always tell a crappy controller is the headphone jack doesn’t sound good I’m playing FPS is you know what I’m talking about As far as the Joy stick there’s no lag feels like a dual shock The texture on the controller is way better than the dual shock All in all a 9 triggers are a little to shiny no grip But best controller out there for the money

***I gave this controller 1 star for each category as the faulty hardware negates any positives I could have had to say about it*** A friend of mine had recommended this controller to me, and at first, it seemed like a great buy. Unfortunately, it's been a little over a month and now the r2 trigger is always stuck; this means, in shooter games, my character is just spraying away and it gets in the way of my gameplay. My friend had told me his trigger got stuck as well -- but for him, it happened after a year. I figured controllers these days break often, so a year doesn't seem too bad, and I went ahead with the purchase. Shortly after testing the controller, I was planning to buy an extra sometime soon anyway. The problem is that this controller didn't even last 6 months let alone a year. In my opinion, a less than 2-month lifespan just isn't worth it. I would go back to the Dualshock if Sony shipped to Jamaica (or allowed JA credit cards to buy anything on their platform at all). This really sucks because I can't get an original Dualshock in my country for a price even remotely reasonable (most times). And the one 3rd party controller that had good enough ergonomics for shooter games breaks itself after a month and change. Really disappointed, especially considering I make content based on my gameplay, and I've just been spending money on these 3rd party controllers to no luck. Really sucks.

At the beginning it feels small compared to the official controller, but you quickly adpat to it, and the material feels also of really good quality. Perhaps the only thing that is a problem for me is that the joysticks are a little small. But in overall is pretty good.
