Question for my fellow folks:

I have had my PS5 since December, and I now have 2 controllers with joycon drift. Is anyone else having this issue? At times I can hardly navigate the home screen.

@TomeReader yeah I've replaced 2 controllers so far, got my console on launch day. I wanna get some joystick modules for my Steam Deck from gulikit.com/ and I've noticed they're working on modules for the Dual Sense Edge. I dunno that I wanna spend $200 on a controller just to spend more for hall effect mods, but I have also seen that Gulikit has said they're working on a PS5 controller so I will prob wait on that, assuming it's under $100 like their other kits.

My PS4 controllers lasted for years, so I'm super annoyed. And when I saw the price of the Edge, I swore out loud.

@TomeReader Yep, my OG PS4 controller is still fine. A couple I got later developed a bit of drift, but after years. Both the controllers I got with the 5 were drifting before a year was up, and I'm the only one using em, got 2 when I saw the batteries were smaller. I like the idea of the Edge, but fuck Sony for not going with Hall Effect sticks, basically forcing you to buy replacements once they inevitably develop drift. Hence the Gulikit route, for me.
