I haven't picked up a Dual Shock controller in probably 5 years. How does the "heft" feel these days? I was really put off by the PS4 controller (DS4?) because of the super light, plastic-y feel.

Compare that to a Xbox Elite controller (different price tier, I know) and it feels like a cheap piece of junk.

I assume with all of this new tech the PS5 controller is a bit heftier but I was surprised how much just the weight made a different for me.

I love the elite controller, best gaming peripheral I’ve owned. Melts into the hand and has back paddles

Anecdotally, the dualsense subjectively feels a lot higher quality than the Dualshock 4. I just picked up both to check.
