<\/a><\/div>Often imitated, never duplicated<\/a><\/h3>The original PS4 controller still ranks among many gamers' favorites for its sleek, dependable design.<\/div><\/div>Best Overall<\/div><\/div>Find on Amazon<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/a>\nThe DualShock 4 remains one of the best gaming controllers available. With lightning-fast wireless technology, it not only works beautifully with the PS4 but also with PCs and other Bluetooth devices. The sticks are slightly textured, making them incredibly grippy. Like the previous two DualShock controllers, this one has pressure-sensitive buttons and analog sticks with triggers. The touchpad, gyro controls, and built-in speaker are new features, though. And if you upgrade to a PS5, you can still play all of your favorite PS4 games with this controller (although it won’t work for PS5 games, only PS4).<\/p>\n
Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Motion controls can be used on other devices besides the PS4.<\/li>\n
- The touchpad can function as a mouse when used on a PC.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- It still uses micro-USB, a minor gripe, but we prefer USB-C.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Tianhoo Wireless Controller Compatible with PS4<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/div>Gaming gone wild<\/a><\/h3>This controller works just as well as the official one but with a cool design and a more affordable price.<\/div><\/div>Runner Up<\/div><\/div>Find on Amazon<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/a>\nWhat’s better than a great PS4 controller? One with a sick design like this one from Tianhoo. It’s modeled after the DualShock 4, so the ergonomics are spot on. Instead of a solid color design, however, this one has a graffiti print that makes this controller stand out. In terms of build quality, it’s practically indistinguishable from Sony’s official model. So at this low price, it’s hard to pass up such a well-made controller.<\/p>\n
Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- There’s no input lag when playing games, whether on PS4 or PC.<\/li>\n
- The touchpad has multi-touch.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- The face buttons have no symbols, so brand-new Playstation gamers may have trouble learning which buttons to press.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Playstation DualShock 4 Wireless Controller in Midnight Blue<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/div>Keep it trendy<\/a><\/h3>With a beautiful soft blue shell, this official PS4 controller looks as great as it plays.<\/div><\/div>Best Style<\/div><\/div>Find on Amazon<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/a>\nThere’s something about the bold color palette of the DualShock 4 controllers that’s soothing and invigorating all at once. This midnight blue model might be our favorite since it has such a gorgeous shade. As with any DualShock 4, it has all the amenities: a responsive touchpad, sensitive controls, motion sensors, and an LED light strip. And as with most PS4 controllers, you can pair this to Bluetooth devices. Even though the PS5 is all the rage, this controller will remain the king of wireless controllers for a long while.<\/p>\n
Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- The headphone jack supports any 3.5mm headphones, microphone, or combination.<\/li>\n
- You can map the accelerometer to controls via Steam on PCs, and they also innately work with some PS4 games.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- We wish it had a built-in microphone, although PS4s come with a headset to plug into the official controllers anyway.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
