1. Design
2. Haptic feedback
3. The d-pad
4. Compatibility
5. The light bar
6. Accessories

1 - Design

Microsoft's design went with tradition when launching xbox x series, gamepad design is similar to elite xbox one controller, shape remained similar due to muscle memory accumulated by players over the years, nothing fancy is needed here as Microsoft has deliberately chosen a matte finish so that the controller does not slip when the player's hands sweat.

These are the little things until Sony launched a brand new controller, the double shock is no longer like the advertised double meaning, the crisp white design includes black keys and a larger touch area with the control bar. glowing light built into the sides basically the double-side looks like what might happen if a stormtrooper were condensed into a controller form naturally both controllers are wireless and each is designed to match their the color combinations of the console.

2 - Haptic feedback

Haptic Feedback While Sony did everything in the visual department, they worked even harder inside the dual sense controller with a new feature known as haptic feedback, basically the goal is to provide
gamers with an immersive experience and haptic feedback, this is how they will achieve when  gamers use analog sticks.

The haptic feedback will recreate them lifelike experiences using more advanced and specific technology than rumble motors you will feel the difference between driving on the mud sidewalk or navigating in the water, if you injured and limping the feedback on the controllers will reflect, this you should notice a major difference if you swing in the air like Spider -Man, or running through the streets like moral miles, unmasked in all haptic feedback will completely change the way you connect with your characters and get into games The new adaptive trigger system also helps we've spent years slamming that R2 button in countless games but the new adaptive triggers showcase more precise sensitivity when pressed.

If you are pressing the gas in a car or throwing molotov cocktails at your enemies the adaptive trigger will detect and further adjust your movements with precision, the new buttons have nothing but nine buttons to play with these controllers, whereas Sony did not introduce the hexagon and xbox and dat and h there are a few key buttons to learn the first is the elimination of Sony share button well it is actually more of a rebranding in the create button the button will give you quick access to screenshot options video and live broadcast options connections to services like twitch, the one-touch button lets you focus on your game without going into as many submenus while all the details have not been given that there will probably be a quick button shortcuts for capturing footage like Switch gamers could press for a screenshot and hold the button to record a video and while Sony removed their button share Microsoft added one originally the button was supposed to give instant access to streaming on Microsoft's mixing platform but mixer has been sold to facebook and now the button will be used for more general streaming purposes, so while there was no major button the changes that we could definitely see the playstation and xbox footage starting to compete with so many pc gamers who have been streaming their games easily for years.

3 - The d-pad

the d-pad since the release of the original nda controller, the d-pad has become a staple among gamers advanced analog sticks provide smoother movements, but this d-pad is still essential for baby.

Sony is stuck with their same unique design, but Microsoft has provided a few and better d-pad  changes called the hybrid d-pad, the design combines the two interchangeable d-pads of the xbox one elite controller into one solid design concept. the biggest difference is the groove in the center of the d-pad, so the entire button doesn't just lie flat, giving your left thumb a lot more comfort.

directional angles are easy to feel with your hands and the d-pad also supports diagonal directions in short, building minecraft will be a breeze and you won't have to correct a lot of mistakes while navigating on the onscreen keyboard it's also a lot easier as you access precise controls, we're all used to the standard d-pad but small changes can often make a big difference Microsoft's controller gets a big thumb to reduce classic d-pad thumb pain.

4 - Compatibility

microsoft compatibility don't just want you to use their new controller with the xbox x series they want you to use that bad boy everywhere with a simple bluetooth connection, you can easily connect the x series controller to the console pc and other bluetooth devices like weak bluetooth tablets.

energy technology allows a controller to have fast connections without major delays and you can easily switch between devices even better is that once you own the x-series controller you can brag about your friends still rock this xbox one and connect the new controller to the old not too shabby console Microsoft will end shipping a lot of extra controllers wholesale, you don't even have to own the x series to enjoy the new one characteristics of the controller.

Sony's compatibility is on hold now, so we can only start from previous story the ps4 controller could connect to PCs and with a major expansion of cloud gaming, we imagine the same will be true for the two-way controller without any confirmation it's just a guess at this point but Sony would do it seriously behind Microsoft without the compatibility options.

5 - The light bar

The light bar one of the greatest gadgets of the ps4 was the light bar of the Dual Shock 4's flashy new feature the bar could only be used with Sony camera at first but later proved to be an essential part for the sony vr helmet and is one of the main reasons why the light the bar came back.

The presence of the light bar is a little more subdued this time around and hidden under the touchscreen but only on Sony plans to expand their business into the vr worlds, the light bar will help with movements and controls in the setup psvr current and all signs indicate a psvr upgrade in the future better quality screen updated and more interactive games the options will make the light bar upgrade essential, so it's not just a flashy light to brag to your friends about the light bar is going to turn out to be more than just a trick, this also means that we will see a version of the new ps5 camera that sony has already teased as part of the first day of the console launch with the color scheme and the light bar sony is definitely trying to earn points in the look department especially when compared to the subdued xbox series Smaller Hands Controller Finally a gaming company that caters to those of us with tiny little gaming hands Of course Microsoft has betrayed the nation's tiny gaming hand with the release of The Duke.

Back with the first xbox but they slowly made amends since no we don't have the size of a joy-con controller but the xbox series x the controller has definitely shrunk contoured grip made things easier for little hands to play comfortably, some of the biggest changes are noted near the shutter button so it will be much easier to multitask and press buttons quickly of course the main emphasis on the design was creating a controller for the Young generation more and more young gamers are playing games regularly and they need a comfortable controller to get the job done.

With the redesign of the controller, the triggers all have a tactile.grip design that makes it easier to tell where and what trigger you actually grabbed means more time staring at those screens instead of looking down in sequence to memorize buttons, five year old in your life will be Extremely excited microsoft microphones can work with the shape of their controller but sony plans to chat with their new built-in microphone function the constant pain of wearing headphones can get old pretty quickly and the microphone function could be a game changer for players looking for quick conversation.

Gamers have access to a quick toggle button under the playstation logo to quickly activate the microphone and turned off with the mic is a built-in speaker that is said to have more features and a much better range than the ps4 the speaker will work the haptic feeding system as well as like providing direct communication so voices come out of the controller instead of the TV of course two weeks after the release of the ps5 we will probably hear stories and rumors about microphone  recording everything and spying on each other but this is a story for another day Let's rejoice that we don't have to make him constantly wear a helmet and deal with so much ear sweat.

6 - Accessories

accessories after purchasing an extra controller for multiplayer games get ready for the next gen accessory train to come roll for xbox x series owners you may want to buy stock batteries and batteries despite the batteries built-in becoming the Norm the newer controller is always double a powered so that you are constantly swapping out your batteries or buying a battery so that you can charge the controller all by yourself with the battery, look for To choose an official headset to use with the controller, Sony's dual-purpose relies on a usb-c charging cable but you're definitely going to want to take the docking station easy to place additional controllers and to keep them charged when you're not. aren't playing and instead wasting battery.

Life while streaming TV shows or movies consider the ps5 wireless remote control the quick access remote control is great for everything besides games including the blu ray player, built into the console and you may want fill up on some of these ultra blu 4k spokes because these discs will be compatible with the console and provide you with high quality movie options in addition to broadcast.

the colors everything on the ps5 and xbox x series looks black and white right the wrong microsoft can pull something under their sleeve, as they gear up to announce the more affordable xbox lockheart edition of the console while the base console from Sony is predominantly white and Microsoft is black the lockhart is rumored to be a white edition of the x series we pretty much got confirmation from a recent reddit post also reddit user wolfie point out wizardo submitted a photo of a white series x controller allegedly taken from a Microsoft employee's home whose son was able to test the brand new system, the reddit account is now deleted.

But many believe the picture and post were completely true the all-white xbox controller has the same designs as the black and could be the very first look at the Lockhart edition of the console that was not advertised as the white base of the controller would definitely take a bit of double-sense and controller fame, wouldn't stand out so much especially when you're sitting side by side store shelves.

While what do you think which console has the best controller will be the haptics the comments completely change play forever, Sony has gone too daring with their combo white and black  controller.
