TIANHOO Wireless Controller Compatible with PS4/Pro/Slim, with Vibration Feedback, Motion Sensing, Touchpad, Light Bar, Share, Speaker, 3.5mm Headphone Jack (Graffiti)

I'll preface my review by stating I've never used this controller with an actual PlayStation 4. I use it exclusively for PC gaming, so if you're wondering how well it works with the intended console, you'll want to look to other reviewers who can speak to that experience.I prefer the symmetrical, centrally-placed analog sticks of PlayStation controllers to the off-center Xbox-style design that places the D-pad between the sticks, so for years, I've used DualShock 3s and 4s as my PC gaming controllers. Lately, however, I've decided that the official controllers are too expensive for their brief lifespans (I pray for Hall effect sticks to become the standard over ALPS), and decided to try out this cheapie.I've had mixed experiences with third-party PlayStation controllers in the past, with most being decidedly subpar, but this one is shockingly good. Buttons feel good, L1/2 and R1/2 feel good, and even the L3 and R3 functionality (pressing in on the sticks as an additional button), which many controllers struggle to make comfortably and responsively, feels good. Vibration and trackpad work as expected. I haven't played anything with Sixaxis controls on this thing, so I can't comment on that.There are a few issues. The tops of the analog sticks are VERY concave, which feels weird when you're accustomed to the rounder DualShock caps. For me, it felt a little rougher on the thumbs with extended play. The battery life is decidedly inferior to the real deal; I normally play wired so I don't really care about battery life, but you might! Finally, and this is a really minor thing, whatever ink or paint the manufacturer used to label the buttons doesn't hold up. It's wearing off fast, like the lettering on some cheap keyboards. If you're a veteran of Playstation controls, you know where your triangle, circle, square and X live and blank buttons aren't going to slow you down, but it may annoy the less familiar or those who find it aesthetically disagreeable. It's interesting that the product picture shows blank buttons to begin with, whereas my controller came with labeled buttons but they're rapidly GOING blank!Aside from the minor stick and button-label quibbles, and the potentially larger issue of battery life if you're going wireless, though, this thing is VERY close to proper DualShock 4 performance at a much more palatable price... at least as far as PC gaming with DS4Windows, mostly via Steam, is concerned. For any potential compatibility or other issues when using this controller with a console, you'll have to check other reviews, sorry!

Got these because my kids go through them too fast. If your kids are the same they are cost efficient for what they do. Even if you're buying them for yourself, they still work good and are worth the price.

I got this controller for less than $20! It has a textured back which is amazing for grip. Battery life around 12 hours from my experience. No button input lag, nice punchy buttons. I seriously don't have a single bad thing to say about this controller, it's exceeded my expectations. One thing to let you know is if you use kontrol freek thumbsticks you need to buy xbox kontrol freeks. The toggles on this controller are identical to xbox so ps4 kontrol freeks are too big and will not work. Amazing controller for an amazing price. If you need a ps4 controller buy this one and you will not be disappointed.

It's fine. I am very dialed into the original ps4 controller and csnt seem to get used to this one. It is just every so slightly off that even adjusting the sensitivity doesn't help much. Used it for 2 weeks and went back to my broken ps4 controller. Also I always get a window pop up telling me my controller isn't a qualified product. Kinda annoying. All in all it's pretty well made and it looks neat. It is perfectly fine for the average player but I play arena shooters and need every inch of smoothness to compete. My kd sank considerably after using this. I would say for anything else it's great. It feels pretty alright on my racing games and sport games. It's just fine. But it will throw you off if you play a lot. I think they could do a better job and charge a bit more and sell more than original ps4. If they can make this decent of a controller I know they can do better so definitely a company I'll keep my eye on but for now this controller I got will be for my guests. Good luck to them when we play COD. Haha

Great

We’ve had this controller for over 2 years and it’s just now showing signs of not charging. Definitely got our moneys worth and would buy again. The design was complimented by many people too. We really liked it.

Great while it worked. Its a cheap controller and it fell apart with heavy use. but it worked great until it didn't

Great controller dont get me wrong, everybody always grabs it so i bought another for the house and one more for myself.. in due time the controllers buttons have a problem of getting stuck, made me sell big games lol but overall a good experience.
