How is the bootleg ps5 controller market? I don't have a ps5 myself but it seems like the obvious answer is to just buy the highest quality off-brand at the better price if you don't want to pay more.
I just got a 8BitDo pro 2 because every PlayStation controller for the last 4yrs has broken in less than 6 months and it's great. Feels good, connects over Bluetooth, and has Hall effect joysticks that aren't prone to drift, which was the Sony controller main issue. All for $50. I think I'm done with Sony controllers.
How is its compatibility with the PS4/5? Might snag one but am worried that it would be subpar compared to an original controller - for example because of a missing touch pad
I'm not sure, only ever used it with my PC. As for the touchpad, haven't noticed not having it but I mostly play COD and older aRPGs.
