DualShock 4 Has A Deceptively Large Size, Side-By-Side Comparison

4.5
Sony has done a lot of changes to the DualShock 4, in fact a lot of people who got their hands on it have been praising it. There’s a reason for that, the controller was designed in tandem with Sony’s first party studios and the drawbacks of the DualShock 3 have been rectified here.

The controller’s size has been pretty deceptive in the press images, so how big is it exactly? Well it’s almost as big as the Xbox One controller and maybe some people will feel it’s even bigger based on this image below posted by a user on a Chinese site called Weibo (registration required).

As you can see, the controller feels really comfy to hold and is shaping up to be one of the best ones ever made. But that’s for the people to judge.

slapshot101 It seems that the PS4 controller is a bit wider then the Xbox One's is but it is a lot slimmer and looks less bulky and more comfortable to hold.


That's why I like the PS4 controller more. It looks like it would be way easier to use and more comfortable than the Xbox One controller, but I will get used to the Xbox One controller either way.

Sashagrey I think the Xbox controller would look way more clean if it didn't have the black bit where the (X) xbox button is, although i do like the rest. As for the playstation i always get pins and needles from playing not sure if its because i'm not holding it right or what but i hate the analogs next to each other


Yeah that in my opinion adds to the bulkiness of the Xbox One's controller.

I prefer the Xbox controller and it is fit for the hand without me having to grip two handles as if I were riding a bike (the PS4 controller), I prefer the Xbox One controller
