Thanks for doing this teardown. I'm very excited to see if the haptic feedback feature comes to any games on PC as well (PC ports or original titles). I am planning to get one of these from family for christmas so I can start playing more platformers and other things like the spyro remastered collection, the same way I did when I was a kid with a PS2 clone USB controller and BLEEM with some ripped PS1 game disks. Using a DS4 for now but it belongs to my sister, and she'll want hers back eventually when she can have friends over again lol. looks like you can service the whole thing with just a soldering iron and an ifixit kit as well, which is pretty good if you ask me. Not counting the rumble motor because that was definitely a contained unit you cut into there

Looks to me like the rumble "motors" are very similar to a linear actuator, and the metal parts on the ends are springs, which mean that each one can vary not only in frequency but also in intensity, where older controllers have 2 offset weights of varying mass so they only have frequency and a low\high intensity option, and they're usually on opposite sides, meaning that left in high and right is low. This should really allow them to do some interesting things with their "rumble" functionality. I see someone used the term "transducer" lower on the page, and I suppose that these are quite similar to the transducers used to make the beeps for most electronics, just much larger and presumably lower frequency.

They are actually voice coils. They can be used as speaker drivers because of their large frequency range - they're precise enough that developers could have the Dualsense output audio without using the speaker if they wanted to. In fact Sony engineers even mentioned that in the API the haptics can receive audio as input, for maximum precision.

Hopefully people will replace their battery instead of buying brand new controllers. PS3 controllers have become extremely difficult to find, because people have been tossing them when the battery stopped holding a charge. And yet, while it isn't meant to be user-replaceable, the battery very easy to replace. Same with the PS4 controller. Although the best in class are Nintendo, since the Wii U gamepad, Wii U pro Controller and Switch Pro controller all feature batteries that is user-replaceable. In fact both generations of Pro controller are using the same battery as in the GBA SP.

They're quite nice, by the looks of it they will be able to make very complex and detailed rumble feedback. They look like they will also have a resonant frequency for when they just want the controller to shake around. Certainly a step up from an off centre weight on a motor. Not sure about the direction they are actuating in though, I would have thought up/down in the hand would have provided more feedback.

I fear one of the most ingenious parts of the controller was glossed over at the end! The rumble cylinder was made of two beautiful flat suspension springs holding what appeared to be a solid multi pole magnet, which I guess would be actuated by a number of flat coils in the walls of the cylinder?? A revisit of that mechanism would be nice!

The part you refer to in the trigger as a "plastic screw" is a worm gear. I work in a company where we specialize in producing and running the tooling for high tolerance parts like that. The molds are somewhat complicated as they need to rotate at the same pitch of the gear to be able to eject it when the mold opens and they can have anywhere from 4 to 16 cavities that all need to move in unison. Neat stuff for sure.

If you think about, this is a mod guide on how to disable the mic on your controller 10/10. Love this mod.

rumble motors is the one place it makes sense to use glue in the construction, since if it was mounted in the controller with mechanical fasteners like screws it would very likely shake them loose over extended use

Glue on the rumble makes sense. If it was held in place by a screw, I could see the vibration unwinding a screw, and making the whole tumble mechanism loose. Glue makes sense there.

Wow! You absolutely müllered that beautifully assembled voice coil motor in the end!
