DUALSENSE EDGE
PlayStation clearly loves the DualSense, to the point that it’s been virtually the only controller worth having for PS5 if you want to take advantage of its advanced haptics and adaptive triggers. But gamers like choice too, so it’s strange that it’s taken so long for Sony to come up with a few alternatives.
Well, now the DualSense Edge is here… and as the name suggests, it doesn’t differ too much from the standard pad’s design – though it’s weightier in the hands, and has more of a balance between black and white, notably for its buttons and touchpad. You also get some neat touches such as more textured grips around the standard thumbsticks as well as on the triggers. But you're going to want clearer enhancements than that to justify its high price.... so what really makes the Edge worth considering is the scope for customisation.
First up, switches at the back let you toggle between three settings for how far you need to pull each adaptive trigger back, including an instant option for those fast-paced shooters.
