The DualSense Edge premium controller brings a lot of new features to the table, but you’d better buy a charging station.
Early next year, Sony will launch the DualSense Edge, their long-awaited answer Microsoft’s Xbox Elite Controller. The DualSense Edge brings a number of new features to the table, including removable sticks, rear paddles, and the ability to save multiple control profiles, but not every change is positive. The Verge recently went hands-on with the DualSense Edge, and while their impressions were mostly positive, they do report the new gamepad will have less battery life than the base PS5 controller. Sony itself confirmed this in a statement…
“The DualSense Edge wireless controller’s operating time is moderately shorter than the original DualSense wireless controller because we’ve included many more features within the same form factor and ergonomic design as the original DualSense controller.
