Review on Gamepad Sony DualShock 4 (CUH-ZCT1E), Star Wars by Adam Nikodem ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Didn't quite buy it well, had a little trouble using it.

Used both Dual Shocks - 10 months. During this time, both changed under warranty for new ones. SONY has officially acknowledged its mistake regarding the erasable sticks and is replacing gamepads with a similar problem with new ones, or refunding money through the stores where Dual Shock 4 was purchased. On the condition that they are no more than a year old. When I had a PS3, both Dual Shock 3 failed after 2 years, i. E. Batteries began to suffice for 3 - 4 hours, and on both almost simultaneously. I had to buy new ones. I'm afraid that with Dual Shock 4 it will be almost the same. Why SONY has not yet made a replaceable battery is not clear, in this regard, Microsoft went in the right direction by supplying the X-BOX 1 gamepads with removable branded batteries for $50. In general, the new Dual Shock 4, having defeated the old diseases of Dual Shock 3, acquired its new ones, and transferred some of them further without changing anything (not a removable battery). But in general, the gamepad is very convenient and reliable. Particularly well-established in fighting games, here of course Microsoft's gamepad is no match for the Dual Shock 4.

Pros
  • 1)Excellent tactile feeling 2) Comfortable ergonomics 3)More comfortable sticks 4) The absence of dead zones on the sticks, (aiming in games has become better) 5) Comfortable long shifts (R2 L2) 6)Mini-Jack 3.5 connector 7) Touch pad panel 8)Built-in speaker 9) Fast battery charging time about 1.5-2 hours 10)Very accurate and comfortable cross
Cons
  • 1) Weak battery 2) Light indicator (especially at night it interferes a lot) 3) The absence of a Micro-USB cable in the box 4) After the battery has exhausted its resource, it cannot be changed to a new one, officially SONY does not release them (consequence: buying a new gamepad) 5) Delicate coating of sticks, which wears out quickly (in the first revisions) - Already fixed. Now the coating on them is made rough and rough.
