★☆☆☆☆
Defective by design
The left analog stick always wears out. You may not notice right away because it doesn't show in all games. In games where the left stick movement is very sensitive, certain directions will cause the character to shuffle their feet repeatedly because the controller's signal constantly shows a strong/weak press alternating. My first controller, this issue was when pressing around 1 o' clock on the analog, the second one is when I press straight to the left.
I've never had so many problems with a game system's controller. Even my 360 controllers which have stick drift don't become as unplayable as these ps4 controllers do.
