Sadly, Nacon&#8217;s brand new Revolution 5 Pro controller doesn&#8217;t contain these features, which makes it difficult to wholeheartedly recommend to PS5 users. It does, however, fix one major DualSense flaw, while also giving multiplayer fans a big advantage in online battles.<\/p>\n<p>More closely resembling the Xbox Elite controller, the Revolution 5 Pro is a premium feeling game pad available in both black and white.<\/p>\n<p>While it&#8217;s not as sleek as the Xbox Elite controller, and a little busier than the DualSense gamepad, the Revolution 5 Pro is a stylish peripheral that&#8217;s among the better looking third-party products.<\/p>\n<p>The all-black version gets my vote as the snazzier of the two, although the white version goes better with your original DualSense.<\/p>\n<p>More importantly, the ergonomic controller is nicely weighted and extremely comfortable, thanks in no large part to the textured grips that wrap around the pad.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qO4T-rC5yKs<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of how it feels, the Revolution 5 Pro comes with additional weights to make it heavier by up to 32g, not to mention swappable sticks (concave and convex) and d-pads.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, the extensive customisation is the Revolution 5 Pro&#8217;s biggest selling point, especially when you factor in the ability to set profiles for different genres and games.<\/p>\n<p>I especially like the Elite-style d-pad, which is far better suited for performing special moves in Street Fighter 6 compared to the default DualSense d-pad.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, the asymmetrical stick layout, trigger locks and programmable back buttons offer certain advantages in online shooters.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Revolution 5 Pro controller<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Storage Case<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Accessory Storage Box<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 2 x D-pads<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Metal Joystick Rings<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 6 x Weights<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 6 x Joystick Heads<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 3m USB-C Cable<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 USB Dongle<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Quick Start Guide<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p>Arguably best of all, however, is the magnetic Hall effect technology designed to completely eliminate stick drift.<\/p>\n<p>With the PS5 DualSense controllers particularly prone to stick drift, the use of Hall sensors is a major tick in the win column for the Revolution 5 Pro, and one of the best reasons to buy it.<\/p>\n<p>Other neat features like a battery indicator and volume controls for your headset and microphone make it perfect for competitive gaming.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, however, it&#8217;s not all good news. The lack adaptive trigger buttons and DualSense-style haptics means that it will never truly replace your original Sony gamepad.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/175x108\/1699903837296.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/115x50\/1699903932892.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/115x50\/1699903932892.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Featuring countless customisation options, the Revolution 5 Pro PlayStation 5 controller is designed for pro gamers.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/143\/590x\/secondary\/Revolution-5-Pro-d-pad-5080442.jpg?r=1700694216741\"><\/p>\n<p>The buttons on the back are also a little too easy to accidentally press, and you&#8217;ll need to plug a dongle into the PS5 in order to use it wirelessly. This wasn&#8217;t an issue for me personally, but it&#8217;s worth thinking about if you already use your console&#8217;s ports for something else.<\/p>\n<p>Despite one or two issues, the Revolution 5 Pro controller is premium feeling, feature-heavy game pad for wannabe eSports professionals.<\/p>\n<p>Lacking one or two of the features that makes the original DualSense so unique and innovative, the Revolution 5 Pro won&#8217;t necessarily replace your pack-in game pad, unless you&#8217;re training for the pro leagues.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, if you mainly play multiplayer shooters and fighting games, then the Revolution 5 Pro controller is a fantastic choice for improving your game.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>VERDICT &#8211; 4\/5<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/entertainment\/gaming\/1838032\/Revolution-5-Pro-PlayStation-5-controller-review\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The DualSense controller is one of the highlights of the\u00a0PlayStation 5 experience, featuring unrivalled haptic feedback and innovative adaptive triggers that create a fantastic sense of immersion.
