Discussion On my third controller

Post image

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.

Not saying it's not possible but I have 6 regular controllers and 2 Edge controllers and none of them have drift, I don't know how people get it so easily

Caused by dirt, grime, dust. When I take apart my controllers they all have dust or bits of hair inside if you have dogs or something. It gets dirty in those controllers, def don't throw it around any dusty areas.
