Controller top - lifespan flop

The leap from Dualshock3 to Dualshock4 is enormous. The controller fits comfortably in your hands - even my big hands have no more problems to reach all the buttons. The touchpad and the speakers will be frequently used in the future determined by developers useful.

Until here: Utterly the currently perfect controller for me.

If the word "if" is not Please consider ....

Now I play for 4 weeks with the controller and the left stick already has a smoothed surface with slight craters. He is not completely worn out, but you can already see the difference. First shreds begin already easy to solve (wintzige smooth crater in the patterned surface).

For me, the 1-star rating is fully justified. A product of 59 should have a certain amount of time without wearing survive. My great-PS3 Controller "lives" still. While sticking some buttons / housing crack / the interior is casual. This controller has for 7 years but persevered and survived the odd beer shower. I would clean it, he would be functional again.

But when I think that my Dualshock4 controller after a year will be so worn out that he is no longer visually and functionally acceptable, this is simply insufficient.
I will vote in about 6 months, the console itself and give depending Verwschleißzustand the controller 4-3 stars, because the controller of the main components of the system.
