DualSense Major Upgrade? 3 NEW COLORS of PS5 Controllers - Sony recently came out with 3 new colors of DualSense PS5 controllers (purple, pink, and light blue) so I bought one of each so I can check them out and see if there is anything different. I'm hoping they upgraded the analog sticks and the springs on the triggers but I won't know until I get them apart.

Any controller that has the model number followed by a smaller capital "A" on the back will have these changes. Even the white and red/black if anyone is curious, great way to tell without opening it up.

Biggest improvement on the spring is the removal of the obvious bend angle. Where ever you get a pronounced curve to straight section, you have a weak point. The new springs look less pronounced so should be stronger by default before the extra wire gauge.
@Bunceythegreat 2 жыл бұрын
There are slightly different changes as the new colours have a small letter after the version. What I also found out is you can not put old controller board into the new shells. The shells are slightly different from the inside so they don't sit flush with old boards. Middle touch button has only 1 screw instead of two. The screws are silver and not black. Not alot of differences but as I do custom controllers you realise the differences.

I took my original PS1 (non-analogue) controller apart the other day to give it a bit of a clean. The difference between that simple controller with its single PCB board and the huge amounts of tech in the DS5 is immense! 😂

Got the purple one last week, used it for about 10 hours (playing HFW), and so far it's great! I have noticed a minor rattle on the right side when the motor kicks in hard, but I haven't been able to pinpoint exactly where it's coming from yet. Also the grip texture on the back feels a tiny bit more pronounced than either of my whites. I thought my primary might have just been worn down a little, but I have a second original white that's never been used, and it's definitely not as pronounced as the purple one. Wish they'd have upgraded the batteries, but the minor improvements they did make are welcome!

I had an issue with one of these new controller, maybe you might be interested in this. I think I have strong hands, because after a few heavy session of GoW, I noticed the X button stopped working correctly. It's sometimes worked, but it's fully stopped while I pushed the L3. I was sure the problem is with the connection between the motherboard and the ribbon cable. Thanks for your videos, I decided to repair it myself, so I went to get some tools and I fixed it with extending the height of the padding under the ribbon cable. :)

Sadly for me you didn't go further into the controller, I wish I could see the touchpad structure. In some of your older videos, it is attached with 2 screws, but when I opened my own controller, it was attached with only one and a piece of plastic on the other side. I was hoping for a comment on the repair side from you. That aside, it was nice to see the springs measurement, keep up the awesome work with the channel!

@chrismorrison5301 2 жыл бұрын
The analogue sticks won't be different; this is the same one used in the dualshock, xbox gamepads and steam deck because the company that supplies them hasn't fixed the drift problem. However, it's going to be a very difficult problem to fix because of how they work, and I'm sure they've been trying. Also, any of the changes they made would apply to all newly manufactured dualsense controllers. So if you went out and bought a new white dualsense, it would most likely have the same thickness spring and board layouts to these new colours

@@ryans413 Plastic colors can be made several ways. They use colorants (basically small plastic pieces or powder that is infused with the pigment) and depending what type of colorant it is will effect the cost of manufacturing. For example the others they might have been able to use the cheaper grain size pellets as colorant but with the red one they might had to use colored pellets or powder that cause extra steps in manufacturing.
