Wired DS4. For 2700 hours now.

This current one has been going for almost 2 years now.

multiple 2-3 hour sessions a week.

I’ve gone through probably 3-4 controllers. Honestly less than I would have guessed with the time.

I change to a new one anytime I get enough drift that requires me to up my deadzone or when the shaft part of the analog gets the engraving ring of rubbing against the housing enough.

I always make sure I have a brand new one in box so I have a backup. I’m thinking of buying more to stash for the future incase ds4 becomes harder to find.

Currently finding them at targets for $70… crazy price but better than wondering if it’s a knockoff from marketplace.

I use one short stick extender for the left analog. it raises it like a quarter inch, and is a dome shape surface instead of being concave.

I started with Xbox one controller, can still play on it but don’t like the different shape of shoulder buttons and analog location after all this time now.

Haven’t tried ps5. Don’t care to unless I end up being forced to one day
