Initial thoughts is I that I like it. I have always preferred the classic PS controller shape so will have to see how it feels when I get it.

Sony always has different colour options for their controllers but you will probably have to wait until they release. I’ve got a sunset orange DS4 that I love.

Looks like a controller that Apple would make, am a bit lukewarm about it and I guess that's normal when we see something new.

Looks nice and different. Good to see Sony taking risk and choosing not to design in their comfort zone haters be damned.

If you're referring to the sticks, theyre probably not doing it because market research shows the vast majority of playstation owners are comfortable and used to its placement. Changing it would be weird for them. Personally I've never got the fuss about the stick placement, what exactly do people not like about it? Is it  a problem for people with big hands or something?

I think Sony has done a good job after a long time
Probably the console is also a amazing design.

USB C should be the standard going forward, charge faster and is more resilient.

Sure, never heard that before :p

I don't play that long but I can go weeks or even a couple of months without needing a recharge on a Switch pro controller which has 40 hours of battery life. DS4 Batt's life is trash. Adding a bunch of bullshit brings batt life down and costs up. I prefer it to be the opposite

We now have a hint that the console will be mainly with with some black accents and blue lights.
