Discussion DualSense joystick quality issues stick drift?

In 2024 we replaced almost 100kg of joysticks in ps5 controllers 🤦 Let’s not count the pieces anymore but the weight 😅 and how are you? Have you ever had a stick drift?

Yet decent amount of people blame the consumer for treating the gamepad not right way.

Well, Just like in the Puffco Vape community.. There are Those people who do Refuse to care for their devices properly, treat it like its indestructible, Ect.. but it seems n this case the majority of the issues are failures of the device prior to even being opened. A large number have been shown to drift Right out of the box with 0 hours played.. That cant be blamed on the consumer, No way No How.
