How durable is the PS5 controller?
I've had my PS5 controller for almost a year now, and it's held up great! I've dropped it multiple times, and it still works perfectly. The build quality feels solid, so I'd say it's pretty durable.

The PS5 controller is quite durable, but heavy button-mashers might notice some wear and tear faster. Treat it gently, and it should last a good while!
Honestly, it's a mixed bag. Some users report theirs holding up for years, while others notice stick drift and button issues after a few months.
I've used mine for over 500 hours of gaming, and except for a few scratches, it still works like a charm! Just don't throw it against the wall!
