Tried dual sensense Edge: We would have preferred to keep the Pro Controller for PS5

Are the days of the Pro Controller for PlayStation 5 over? We got a chance to try out the Danseuse Edge controller and can now share our first impressions. In this article, we'll compare the Edge to its predecessor and explain why, in some cases, we would still prefer to keep the Pro Controller.

With the use of the EDGE menu, we particularly liked that it is simple to contact and was made reasonable. Not only tech experts can rapidly configure their preferred setup. What is not clear to us is why Sony has installed 2 FN secrets with the very same function on the Edge. We have actually forwarded this concern to Lead Item Supervisor Thomas Milano and keep you as much as date in this regard. This is included in the scope of shipment of the Edge Dual Sense: Controller USB-C charging cable television (approx. 2 m). Protective bag. Connector housing (charging station function). 2x embroidery caps (requirement). 2x embroidery caps (high, concave). 2x embroidery caps (low, concave). 2x back paddles (semicircular). 2x back paddles (lengthened).

Back paddles.

In contrast to the Xbox Elite Series or the SCUM Reflex Pro, just two rather of 4 back paddles can be connected to the back of the Edge. Sony leaves us the choice in between two versions:. Of all, we were able to discover that the accessory of both back paddles, after a short time of getting used to, is fast and easy. In terms of haptics, there is also barely any factor to be crowded. The additional buttons are good Click, were simple to reach with the middle fingers and were only triggered if we desired it. Back paddles in general are ideal for, for example, to position the functions of R3/L3 on the controller back. Anyone who, like us, hesitates to sprint with L3 in action video games, can quickly load the sprint on one of the back paddles. What strikes again is that with its little, structured switches is tidy and so basic design of the double sen sense Edge, even if it indicates that no 4 buttons can be connected. Nevertheless, it is also a matter of taste whether these are necessary.

stick modules.

We come to an advantage of the EDGE compared to the regular double sensual, which ought to fulfill all of you who often battle with the tiring subject of the stick drift. The analog sticks of the EDGE can be eliminated within a few seconds and replaced by new ones (price: 25 euros per stick):. How does the growth work? To do this, we press a little slider to the right on the lower side of the pad and can take out the piano lacquer real estate in the second step. The now open sticks can then be quickly and easily gotten rid of. While the latter worked incredibly, the actuation of the slider looked really fiddly. Without longer fingernails, it is difficult to push the small button to the right. Considering that the controller (ideally) is seldom used, we can turn an eye here.

The

However, not just the sticks can be changed, the stick caps can also be removed with no problems and replaced with a new couple. These stick caps are included in the scope of delivery:. Conventional caps of the dual senses. High concave caps. Low concave caps. Back front. Convenes, inwardly arched caps, are not consisted of in the package and, if wanted, need to be purchased individually from Sony or third-party company. Here we would have enjoyed if Sony had actually added a convex couple. In general, however, we are likewise really pleased with the analog sticks of basic handling and the fast exchange. The truth that the sticks can be exchanged compared to other professional controllers is likewise an excellent advantage that can conserve a lot of cash in the long run.

trigger stops.

Another great advantage of the EDGE are its mechanical trigger stops connected to the back, which can be set in 3 stages (short, medium, long) and furthermore fine-taught (see above). Here, too, the EDGE shines through its tidy style and its basic use, which enables us to adapt the trigger to the trigger fixed. As validated in the practice test, shooter fans in specific must enjoy the brief trigger stops that are not too delicate, contrary to our worry. Considering that we can continue to tweak them in the system menu. Adaptive trigger vs. Trigger-Stops: On the other hand, it is not surprising that the haptic effect of the adaptive trigger is no longer offered on the brief level and can just be noticeable on the middle level. We likewise brought the concern of whether the reason is technical in nature in a written interview to Thomas Milano.

battery life.

When asked about a specific battery life, Sony could not supply us with any precise information. Compared to the normal double sense, however, the battery life ought to be moderately much shorter. Given that the EDGE has more functions with the continuous design, this ought to not be surprised.

By the method, we have a happy client for everybody who likes to have fun with linked USB-C cables. The package is around. 2 meters long cable.

protection bag.

Defense bag port real estate charging station. Finally, the storage box of the Danseuse EDGE should not go unmentioned, which is consisted of in the scope of delivery and, thanks to a Velcro opening on the back, through which the USB cable television is led, can be used as a charging station. The protective cover not just looks useful and robust, however also serves to clean up the consisted of content from the controller to the stick caps to the back paddles and to stow quickly. Generally, and here we cause the conclusion, it symbolizes the dual sen sense Edge, which features a rather simple and incredibly functional design and also understands how to persuade in almost all points in quick usability.

optics and feel

Sony brings the double sen sense Edge to the marketplace in the color in the color and together with a style that, at very first look, just differs from typical dual senses initially glance. This is brand-new: For example, Sony has actually selected a detachable piano lacquer housing around the analog sticks. Due to the strong susceptibility to fingerprints and scratches, however, we would have preferred a Matt surface area. The brand-new button pattern on the black touchpad, which reveals the widely known four PlayStation buttons, is likewise striking. Brand-new, and not just optical in nature, the two function secrets are directly below the analog sticks, 2 sliders listed below the trigger to set trigger stops and the 2 back paddles on the back of the edge. The size and weight: As you can see in the image, both pads are the same size, however there is a difference in weight The dual-sensense Edge weighs 335 grams and is therefore 55 grams much heavier than the regular PS5 controller. Due to the greater weight, the game pad feels more important, and it doesn't tire of playing for longer. Improved haptics: So that the controller is visibly much better in the hand and does not slip when playing intensively, small, barely visible knobs were attached to both handle horns. The top of the R2/L2 trigger was also supplied with a hatching for more grip. Overall, we keep in mind that Sony does not endeavor here compared to the dual sense, however with the Edge it brings a noticeably more valuable controller onto the market, which is even much better in its hands due to its improved feel and the greater weight.

use by means of menu

So that you can configure the dual sen sense Edge according to your choices, a brand-new tab is added to the PS5 menu with an upcoming system upgrade. Here you can make the following settings: Produce profile: Whether for individual video games or individuals on which Danseuse Edge you can save 3 profiles at the exact same time. It is practical that you can keep up to 30 other profiles in the PS5 menu, which can be moved to the controller at any time. Change key task: On the basis of a clear diagram, you can appoint a new function to all buttons including the touchpad and the back paddles. Squeezing Sensitivity/Dead Zone: Sensitivity curves of the analog sticks can be set here.

6 presets are available that can be separately changed. Trigger-Deadzone: The input location of both triggers can be completed concurrently or individually on a scale of 0-100. Vibration intensity: The haptic feedback can be set in 3 degrees of strength from reasonably to greatly or completely shut off. Intensity of the trigger result: Like the vibration, you can set the adaptive trigger effect in three stages or turn off completely. Trigger analog stick crucial project profile It is very practical that the EDGE menu can likewise be accessed listed below the analog sticks during play by means of the 2 function secrets (brief: FN). With pressure on FN plus one of the action buttons (triangle, x, square and circle), the profiles are changed through, with pressure on FN+ alternatives, the menu of the EDGE controller opens. If the menu is closed with the district key, the picture switches straight back to the video game. Volume control via the function key: It is really excellent that the volume can be established quieter or louder by pressure on FN+Control Cross on the left/right. On the other hand, the volume of the in-game sound or the party chat is positioned quieter or louder via FN+ control cross at the top/below.
