This ish collector item, buy to 摆美 or flip on ebay one, drift is not important. :o
Maybe I'll use it lightly. Nice to display in a clear case. Can flex a tiny bit when others come visit.
I want one too even though I'm not nostalgic of growing up with console gaming.
I think it's the the colourful PS logo + grey combi? So iconic, yeah?

Good idea!💡

I guess. Darn. Currently, my red DualSense (2nd gen) is supposed to be of higher quality but now, the right stick is drifting. BMWK, while running, the camera keeps panning up to the skies. Sian.

I will be getting the 30th anniversary dualsense edge too to replace/act a spare controller on the original dualsense edge currently that I'm using :)

And also the rubber sticks are breaking down and peeling off since the PS days 30 years ago. Until now, they haven't come up with more durable material? Mine peeled and I just remove them, leaving the plastic stick and just use as is. Ugly but no point keep replacing and then cycle repeats. How do you all deal with it?

You can buy thumb grip cover. There's also many other different brand available on the market. Check reviews & price comparison before buying.

I didn't buy it, as my DualSense analog sticks are still in good condition with no peeling (Gen 1 launch model from 2020). Though I did purchase the PS Portal carrying case & screen protector from Skull N Co. They're good quality products with reasonable price.

I never experience that peeling problem from PS1 to PS5. Sticky yes, if kept in storage for too long without using. But none of my controller's analog stick rubber has ever tear/peel despite having sweaty palms.

Though I know many users are affected, maybe it's a case by case basis.

Hi all, what's the best storage to get now?

Samsung 990 Pro 2TB ($221 @ Amazon SG)
or
WD SN850X 2TB ($215 @ Amazon SG)

Need to buy the version with heatsink? I see Amazon SG prices cheaper than Shopee and Lazada, i assume people here will get from Amazon SG then?

2TB won't be enough. Last year Jan I bought a 2TB SSD and then one month later had to get a 4TB version. Then after that later in the year I bought a 5TB USB drive.

Now even though my PS5 have 4TB SSD plus 5TB external USB drive, I've already filled up all the space and still have many games unable to be downloaded. 😟

My digital game count (PS5/PS4) is currently close to 600.

WD had a 4TB SSD with heatsink designed for the PS5, right now is around $500 on Amazon.

30th Anniversary Edition PS5 Pro will only have 12,300 units so is very very limited.

Maybe 100 units for SG market?

My PS5 left stick rubber top kinda came loose and now can rotate 360deg.

My PS4 left stick rubber top previously also came loose and I just removed it and continue to use the exposed hard plastic top.

Anyone following the price of 8TB SSD? What is the average price range for this capacity?

I thought I saw previously (earlier this year) it was around $800 to $900 but noticed the WD 8TB SSD PS5 Edition is now selling at $1400++.

Did I remembered wrongly? 🤔
