The controller works pretty will. Just as good as the official controller. Joy sticks work will almost no snap back. The back buttons works well there easy to reach. Also it feels pretty soild in my hands.Controller feels nice in your hand and buttons are very responsive. Great buy!I needed a controller for certain games on my PC, as mouse and keyboard doesn't feel right with certain gameplay. This was a controller that caught my attention due to the features and aesthetic, as well as the value.Please note that XBOX controllers are typically more easy to use on PC due to the driver support, and I was aware of this going into this- I simply prefer the shape and function of a PS4 controller, and also have a friend with a PlayStation that I could easily play with if I bring this over.The controller is attractive and well made. The analog sticks and the triggers feel very responsive and accurate, comparable to most 70+ dollar controllers. The triggers have a nice gradual pull to them before the springs are broken in, we will see if this changes. The grips on the handles are a weaved fabric over a sort of mesh, similar to the padding you would see on some backpacks, but denser and thinner to be more appropriate for this purpose. It feels really nice in the hands. The buttons are all responsive and not sticky or hard to press or too easy to accidentally trigger. The touchpad seems to be good hardware as well, sending a very smooth mouse signal to my PC, similar to just using a well made laptop touchpad.The kit includes three pairs of analog sticks, each a different length and distinguishable by the grip pattern at the edge of the stick's thumbpad. You can mix and match until you get the right balance and feel you're looking for in your sticks.The kit also includes a USB-C cable, however it is very short and is only really good for charging, which is a shame for a reason I will get to in a moment. Using my own 3 foot Anker cable, I get a good signal and secure fit and also the length I would need to plug in my controller while playing. Depending on your setup, I recommend at least a 3 foot USB cable if you want to, or need to play plugged in.Bluetooth pairing mode is easy to do, holding the share button and PS button until the light bar double flashes (AKA "Hyper-flash") and having the Bluetooth compatible device or your PlayStation ready to pair as well. PC users should note that unless playing a Steam game, you need to use DS4windows free software to use this controller, and for some reason this controller is not compatible with the software when paired to a PC via Bluetooth. It works fine with the software when plugged into USB, however, so as long as you're okay with playing plugged in and possibly purchasing a new USB cable, this will be fine for PC users.I have been playing third person games such as Assassin's Creed: Unity and Stray with this controller for about a week now and it still feels just as impressive as the day I got it. This is a well made controller with good parts and features. Very high value at the price point, comparable to controllers double the price.Highly recommended for PlayStation players trying to save a little, and PC players who don't mind being plugged in and using third-party software to map the controller.Title says it all
