I have 3 controllers, two of which I’ve had since maybe 6 months after the PS5 was released since that’s about how long it took me to get one.
Both controllers have a few hundred hours on them, neither have stick drift. The third one doesn’t have nearly the amount of hours on it since my kid spilled juice on it and I procrastinated for a few months to take it apart and clean it lol so I’m not considering that one.
Is it really that bad or did I just get lucky? These things are almost 4 years old and still work perfectly fine.
I literally got stick drift a week after release day, ever since then I’ve gotten stick drift on two other controllers (just on ps5) It’s just a lottery and I’m fucking tired of it
Wish they were more obsessed with making a controller that doesn’t develop stick drift and had better batteries.
The last two generations of Playstation and Xbox controllers have all used the same Alps joystick modules.
Elite Series 2 is the only exception I know of, I haven’t taken apart the Dualsense Edge so that one could be different too.
I’m curious about the stick drift thing.

Had one for 3 months and then it started. Send it in and got a new one which works finde for the last month.
It just comes down to luck I guess.
I’ve had two of 'em that see a lot of use for about 3 years and both are still fine.
I got a ps5 before you did, and I have 2 controllers, and both have had battery failures and stick drift.

I’ve only lost one out of 4 controllers to stick drift. So 25% chance, sample size 1.
Isn’t the sample size 4?
I guess I meant myself as the sample, but 4 makes more sense.
