Pay top price for a control pad and they can't even be bothered to throw in a charging cable.
It's a nice design and everything but not supplying the very component need to charge the item is ridiculous, heck even WISH sends charger cables and they suck.
I'm giving this three stars just becuase the actual pad is decent. But no cable is a no no for me and people can argue 'theyre only cheap just buy one" if they're only cheap why not supply one lol

PlayStation 5: DualSense Controller
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 November 2020
Since the original DualShock controller, Sony have made considerable improvements over the years as technology got better and better.I can see why they have diverted from naming this controller DualShock 5 but instead calling it 'DualSense', the reasoning for this is certainly key changes such as the old rumble motor and has now opted for dual actuators which can replicate specific frequencies to give a more immersive experience through haptic feedback.Another key feature are the adaptive triggers which allows the game developer to add resistance to the triggers. A perfect example which has been used many times to explain this is when you draw a bow, initially it's very easy to pull back until it gets to a point where more and more resistance is applied making it tougher to go any further; developers can simulate these in the triggers.The DualSense like the DualShock 4 also has an in-built microphone, speaker, touchpad, three-axis gyroscope and a three-axis accelerometer. With all the different sensory elements the new controller has in-built, it makes sense to call it "DualSense".Important information:• DualSense is NOT compatible with the PS4 console (as expected).• DualSense WILL work with PS4 compatible games when played on the PS5 console.• DualSense is NOT compatible with PSVR games when played on PS5 console. The main reason is because the DualSense has no lightbar on the front, so cannot be tracked.And to end on a positive note, the DualSense controller feels incredibly robust compared to the old DS4 and is so comfortable to hold; in my personal opinion, I much prefer using the DualSense controller.

I’ll update this review once I’ve had chance to try it out, but I thought I’d offer my opinion on the aesthetics for the time being.
The DuelSense is slightly larger than the DuelShock for the PS4 - this is something I like, as it finally feels like a worthy challenger to my beloved xBox controller (which was the thing I missed the most when I swapped sides from team Microsoft to team Sony back in the XOne/PS4 days).
It also feels more weighty than the DuelShock and I love the design with the teeny tiny PS symbols that adorn it’s beautiful facade!
I would point out that there is no charging cable included, which is disappointing for a premium product (and explains why I’ve only awarded 4 stars). That being said, I’m sure the PS5 will include a charging cable, so it’s not the end of the world.
For me, this is the best looking controller on the market. Whether it is the best performing remains to be seen, and is largely a subjective view anyway. I can’t wait to try out the adaptive triggers and the haptic feedback, but for now, I’ll just have to be content to hold it in my hands and dream of what goodness might await!
Update #1
For anyone reading this and wondering why I've not updated my experience with the DualSense, it's purely due to the fact that my PS5 died within 4 hours of ownership (see my PS5 review on Amazon). As such, I never really got to experience the greatness that others have commented on as I didn't get to play any games. That being said, I can confirm that the experience of using the controller whilst I was setting my PS5 up (before it failed) was really positive - as already commented, the size and weight now feel perfect, and movement just feels more fluid (partly down to the improved PS5 UI, but this beautiful piece of equipment also factors in). Unfortunately, as my PS5 is in console heaven, I'm back to using my DualShock with my PS4... which now feels entirely inadequate!

A premium product without a charging cable! (UPDATED)

Today I received my DuelSense controller… but alas no PS5 to connect it to until next Thursday :(By Stephen on 12 November 2020
