Wow, I actually like this a lot! I love the white/black duo color, and especially seeing the face buttons and d-pad with them being clear (from the side angle pic), it looks really beautiful.
much better. colored face buttons are a must.
I just got an alert from Bleacher Report about Sony unveiling the controller design which is pretty crazy
Dualshock 4 is my favorite controller of all time. I really, really liked it. Not a fan of how easily the rubber in the joysticks peeled off thoughnot as ugly as the DS4, but I'm not a fan of "shell" look. Seems like they use the same rubber coated stick as the DS4, which is not good, those peeled of on my ds4's after some time. Hopefully the touchpad is less wobbly than the one on the DS4, but I would have prefered a removal. Mic seems like a unnecessary addition like the speaker.
Really? :o
Doubt the touchpad will have different colours. It's too expensive to do, hence why the touchpad was always black this gen regardless.
Because it sounds like they didn't make the battery larger. And turning off the light seems like an obvious way of extending battery life.We also took thoughtful consideration into ways to maintain a strong battery life for DualSense's rechargeable battery, and to lessen the weight of the controller as much as possible...

DualSense also adds a built-in microphone array, which will enable players to easily chat with friends without a headset – ideal for jumping into a quick conversation. But of course, if you are planning to chat for a longer period, it's good to have that headset handy.
Looks awful, and why did they keep the touchpad? Barely any game used it.
