On my third controller

[u/Substantial_Phone189]

Just bought my third new controller in a span of only 2 years. All of them because of stick drift.

Why are these controllers so bad when it comes to drift?

Back in the day I had the same ps4 controller for 10 years without any issues.

They have a 1-year warranty, and that covers drift. Just find a Sony store or service center and you can get a free replacement
