That's why he gets the 15$ Amazon special while I use the pro controller.

Steve could assemble one totally faulty Dual Sense with all those broken parts: right and left drift sticks, dumb touchpad, stuck shoulder and trigger buttons, bad face buttons, dead battery, screwed charge port and ugly dirty case. The masterpiece of unfair gameplay!

What I find fascinating here is some of these controllers are using different analog modules than the others. Some are using analog modules with orange potentiometers, I believe those are from Polyshine Favor Union. The others are using the ALPS analog modules with the green potentiometers, the kind you find in Xbox controllers. I'm curious if they feel different and have different failure rates. I guess we'll find out.

Very nice video. You make repairs look easy, that chip reflow.. and using just a tiny amount of flux was very nice touch, haven't seen that anywhere yet.

[@MrOrange645]

@Tronicsfix I just discovered something interesting about the Dualsense controller touchpad, which I though might be helpful in your repairs. I have four Dualsense controllers, and I completely disassembled two of them to custom paint them black. This included removing the touchpad circuit board from the plastic touch pad. I did so carefully and set them to the side. These circuit boards looked exactly like the one in your teardown video, with the orange ribbon cable that is soldered to the board. When I reassembled them, the touchpads didn't work. They were getting power, as the LED light on the circuit board came on, but it didn't recognize swipes or clicks. So I disassembled ANOTHER dualsense to swap in a known good touchpad, and it worked just fine. I also noticed it was different. The ribbon cable was blue and white, and it wasn't soldered to the board. And the chip was smaller on it. But I know all of these are genuine Dualsense controllers straight from Sony. Thought it was just a different variation. Well, in further testing, I went back to my two "bad" touchpads. Decided to exchange them between the two controllers, and guess what? They worked! Apparently, the touchpad with the orange ribbon cable is married to the main board in that controller. It won't work in any other controller. But the touchpad with the white and blue ribbon cable seems universal. Not sure why the difference, but if you run into an issue with touchpads, it's something to keep in mind. And maybe something to test yourself!!

[@fiyahblaze8732]

Hmm read the same article, it states that if you play intensive competitive games that requires sharp turns and what not (like in shooters) and moving the stick all over the place, the life expectancy goes down to 400 hours tops and being honest, its a serious thing. A friend of mine when we talked about it, I told him that I didn't understand how the heck he has gone through 3 DS4 controllers, he simply said: "You don't play shooters" This was before the article and I can attest to his diligence in taking care of his things.

And I'm not even playing games that force you to use the sticks kinda rough. I think I played fallen order the most with it. So it's not just a user error thing.

@@AbbyRawks dirt and environment is also an issue. Corrosion can cause electronics to rust and break inside without u even notiticing.

Nice job on the reflow! I'm glad you tried it :)

[@Tronicsfix]

Me too!

[@zombiekill223]

Absolutely insane! 8/8 performance!

[@Tjoeb123]

I'm really interested to see how you'll be able to diagnose and repair the adaptive triggers. Not the triggers themselves, but the part that creates the adaptive tension since that tester can't pick it up. I'm guessing you tested the adaptive trigger tension for #2 in something like Astro's Playroom? Either way I am interested in seeing such a repair if one ever materializes.

I cant believe people have broken their controllers already!

[@nathanmead140]

People aren't as careful with this stuff now as they should be.

based on stick mnfg specs, intensive gamer exceeds it by playing just 400hrs (ifixit)

[@MrVook]

Awesome video watching you use common sense, process of elimination and ingenuity to make these fixes. Very informative and easy to watch. Liked and subbed!

[@ObliviousTechy]

Well done on getting them all fixed! 👍

[@trooper2708]

Maybe some have adaptive trigger problems and it will only be detected in-game

[@moneymaker-xg2oz]

Thats what I was thinking of. I dont see him testing adaptive trigger, speakers and haptic feedback.

[@merryweatherfleet2267]

How have people already broken them

[@randompsv2409]

I don't know how they do that my worst Ragequit is Yelling to People but I don't destroy my stuff because of an game

You're videos are so therapeutic for me

[@davinders1994]

Love you vids bro. So satisfying to watch 💪🏽

[@achilles3140]

Ppl already have broken 8 Controllers... Others are still waiting for one to break

[@ischmidt]

PS5 controllers are actually easy to find. It's the consoles that don't exist.

[@achilles3140]

@@ischmidt wird nicht auf die Suche nach Controllers sein wenn ich selbstverständlich das Ding nicht finden kann 🤣 Bin aber kein Spieler mehr. Mir interessiert das Reparatur nix mehr

[@yungmetronome5317]

can u fix my controller for payment my scuf vantage had a drift problem when I bought it but I ignored it and when I finally sent it back for repair they said they didn’t have the parts and at this time they stoped selling vantages at that time I have nowhere else to repair or send it to repair that I know of if u can’t do it so u know somewhere to recommend I’m willing to pay a fair amount to get the controller fix if u can do it of course

[@Neopumper666]

I don't know if I should feel sad to see so many broken controllers or happy that dualsense are definitely fixable It was the real life test we need Great video! :D
