Questions & Answers
They're perfect for my PlayStation 3.
During cut scenes, my children have developed the habit of simply moving one of the joysticks. It appears to function properly and does not disconnect in this manner.
I got a lot more than I thought I'd get. They STRONGLY advise against using a *quick charge* because the rechargeable battery inside will be damaged. br>It took me about three hours to complete. 4 hrs
No, a PS3 is the only console available. However, don't buy them because they will break eventually.

Control has set itself ablaze!! I awoke to the sound of an explosion and dashed outside to find my nightstand on fire, with only this controller on it. Purchase this item at your own risk.
Except for the joystick controllers' sensitivity, everything works fine. In Battlefield 4, for example, the direction control sensitivity is insufficient vs. Despite adjusting PS3 settings, Sony's brand causes large and immediate direction changes with only a small joystick movement. So you can't use it for that game; you'll have to buy a new one because you can't aim precisely enough.
) When pressed, they "pop" (firm, not flimsy); The battery takes about 1 hour to fully charge. 5 hrs. The R2 buttons and tabs have a "lip" on them that is extremely useful when playing. Con's- The battery lasts about 2 days or 10 hours playing time after a "full" charge goes down to the second bar/level in about half an hour; joysticks are stiff, making it difficult to track and shoot when targeting items, characters, or enemies. In other words, I spent $40 on "Sony" aftermarket name-brand controllers that had problems right out of the box (joystick stuck while pushing forward after charging). I still play Dark Souls 1 and 2, and YES, these DO WORK.
The controller graphics, particularly the skulls, are fantastic! They did an excellent job on that front. br>However, the controllers have a few flaws. For starters, the charging cord port is a hair too large, causing the cord to fall out frequently. That is inconvenient, but you can deal with it. The main problem is battery life, which was excellent when they first arrived. They stayed charged for a long time, but after only a few months, the battery no longer holds a charge, and I have to keep the cord plugged into them at all times.
The feel of them; at first, I thought the controllers were broken; I plugged in the charger and it wouldn't sync; however, I only needed to restart the PS3 to sync, which wasn't a problem because I was able to play right away. It doesn't look like it was thrown together on the cheap. I don't have to charge it for a long time to get a full battery, and I can play while it charges. I love them and have no complaints. My only wish is that there were more designs to choose from, but overall I give this product a 5 star rating because it was well worth the money.
It is well-made. I don't usually review purchases, but I've purchased other off-brand controllers and these are far superior. Obviously, they are not Sony, but you can tell the difference in quality between them and other off-brands, and the performance is excellent. They appear to be slightly (and I mean slightly) slower in terms of response time, but the difference is so minor that I haven't changed any sensitivity settings in the game. You won't be disappointed, in my opinion. The best bang for your buck is without a doubt this.
The controller is fully functional and connected. I mostly use the white one because it is looser and responds better, whereas the green one is a little stiff. I'm not complaining because it'll probably loosen up with time. I'm happy with it because it still works well enough for me to play with my son or wife. br>br>I was hoping to use it with my old PS3 controller charging station, but the controller's design is just different enough that it won't work. It doesn't take away from the control's functionality, but it's worth noting if you plan to use Sony accessories with these controllers.
Because my son is frequently in and out of the hospital, we always bring the PS3 with us to keep him entertained. I started looking for affordable replacements when the original controllers started to wear out and malfunction. After a long search, I decided to give it a shot. I was aware that off-brand products posed a risk, but the reviews were positive, so I decided to take a chance. br>br>When my son opened the box, he was overjoyed and kissed the controllers. He adores the look, and I was ecstatic with how well they came together. br>br>They hold a charge for a long time and have perfect control sensitivity; they do make a noise when you shake them, but they're otherwise sturdy.
