Sony's latest Days of Play sale has just kicked off. It features deals
aplenty on PlayStation 5 consoles, accessories and games, as well as PS Plus
subscriptions. One of the more intriguing discounts is for the PS5 DualSense
Edge. The premium controller has dropped by 15 percent from $200 to $169.
That's the lowest price to date for the peripheral. The deal is available on
Amazon and from Sony directly.

The layout apes that of the regular DualSense controller, but there's a lot
more going on with the Edge. For instance, there are function buttons below
each thumbstick that allow you to swap between button configurations (which
you can customize at any time in the PS5 settings). On the rear, there are
switches that enable you to change the pull length of the shoulder triggers.
There are also rear paddles, and you can choose between a set of levers or
shorter half-domes.

It's possible to swap out the thumbsticks as well and, because they attach to
the controller magnetically, it's a cinch to do so. Other than the standard
nubs, you can choose between short-stemmed convex and long-stemmed convex
options. There's also a cable lock that prevents you from accidentally
removing the USB-C charging cable by accident.

You might want to keep that cable plugged in. One of the major downsides of
the DualSense Edge is its battery life. In our testing, we got around five to
six hours of use on a single charge, less than the six or seven we get with
the standard DualSense.

Last be not least, the DualSense Edge comes with a hardshell carrying case.
There's even a passthrough flap through which you can thread a USB-C cable to
charge the controller while it's cocooned in the case.

There are, of course, lots of other intriguing discounts in the Days of Play
sale, including one on the standard PS5 DualSense controller. That has
dropped to $55, which is $20 off the list price.
