PlayStation 5 DualSense Edge review: a true pro PS5 controller, for a price

 

The DualSense Edge is a true pro controller for PS5 players, though its high price point makes some of its shortcomings sting.

Strong build quality Sturdy carrying case Fantastic back buttons Versatile trigger locks Innovative profile swapping

High price Short battery life Parts feel lacking for price

“The DualSense Edge offers excellent customization options for PS5 fans, but its high price point makes it a luxury purchase.”

Sony PlayStation 5 Review

 

4K, HDR graphics ; Consistent frame rates ; Incredibly fast loading speeds ; New DualSense controller feels great, with intriguing haptic features

You still won't see 4K/60fps in every game ; Odd chassis design may make it hard to place in your media center ; PS4-only backward compatibility, with no real graphical improvements

With incredibly fast load times, a revolutionary DualSense controller, and excellent exclusives, the PS5 is a must-have for PlayStation fans.

4K and 120fps gaming ; Super-fast SSD loading ; Novel UI and gameplay features ; Exceptional controller ; Speedy game downloads

Backwards compatibility disappoints

You can't have a PS5 review that doesn't mention the design; this console looks like nothing else and resembles a piece of sculpture. Like all art, it's perhaps a desired taste, but behind the look is a design that ensures silent running, cooling and...

PS5 review: Untapped potential, with a revolutionary controller

Lightning-fast SSD ; New Control Center and Activity cards ; Solid launch lineup ; Efficient cooling and whisper-quiet fan ; DualSense is phenomenal

Only 825GB of storage ; A difficult to use base ; Dimensions are quite large

Sony took everything that made the PS4 great and doubled down to create a truly impressive console. The focus on immersion is immediately apparent with the DualSense controller, which is a standout accessory for the machine. From lightning-fast loading...
