    Default Cheap DualShock Wireless Controller PS3 Controls available @ R126.39


    I received my white PS3 DualShock3 Wireless Controller a few days ago ordered from Dinodirect. They are not original but my friend wouldn't know the difference

    -Battery does not last that long with vibrations on.( This is my first Dualshock Controller so I don't really know the average time)
    - Analog stick feel a bit stiff but hopefully loosens up with playing.
    - Various colours available.
    - Delivery time was 2 Weeks (was delivered to my closest post office)

    Battery on original lasts quite awhile, can get away with perhaps 12 hours of constantly being on, my cheapie which I got in 2009 for R500 lasts 5 hours tops, also feels more bleh.
    Live Long and Prosper

    I'm sure my Dualshock battery lasts even longer than 12 hours. For comparison purposes, my Xbox controller does about 10 hours on one charge and the Dualshock feels noticeably longer.

    While R130 is super cheap I think I'll stick to original merchandise. My very first Dualshock survived 5 years of gaming before it packed up which IMHO is well worth the pricetag.

    12 hours that's Impressive!.. While R650 is super expensive I think I can live with charging it more often. My gaming session aren't usually long so I probably won't notice it anyway. I will charge it overnight and see how much hours/mins I can juice out

    The only difference i could actually see was minor changes on the label that contains the barcode on the back of the remote

    Wow,so it even has the sony logo infront of it. Normally these genericts aren't that accurate when it comes down to these small details.

    Hahahaha,well if you would give me the remote i'd probably also think it's the real deal.
    Only way you'd then notice it would be battery life,and how the buttons and analogsticks feel.

    But damn i might just consider getting one and giving it a go. And it works with bluetooth,right? Not any dongles or what so ever?
