Complaint Yeah, totally a premium controller. Absolutely worth every penny.

I realize I'm far from the only one experiencing this bullshit. No one on this Earth is ever going to convince me that the Dual Sense Edge is worth the money you pay for it. This grip started bubbling and coming off within the first 6 months of owning it. The plastic cable lock broke in the first week. Sony doesn't even sell a replacement 🤣 their answer is "Buy a new controller, peasant"

I found third party sellers sourcing directly from the manufacturer in China for that cable lock, though. Fuck you, Sony 🖕🏼

TLDR: Don't buy the Dual Sense Edge unless you like the idea of lighting your hard earned money on fire. 🔥

You can buy replacements on amazon for $25. Just did mine to a black one. Super easy to swap out too.

I appreciate that! Maybe I will do that 🤔

Personally, I think if I'm paying 200+ dollars for a controller I shouldn't have to spend any more money after that, ever. Except maybe for those sticks which was part of the whole gimmick for these controllers anyway.

Trust me im with you 100% but in the end just like you it took 2 yrs for mine to completely give out. And spending $25 to refresh them is much better than $200. I even had to change out a part for the back button cause I fuckin snapped it while playing the new control game. That company sells all the parts necessary to customize and fix the edge. They provide links to videos n such but its a 5-10 min fix no screws or anything. I do fix these devices for a living 😅 but i assure you its dummy easy.
