The PlayStation 5 DualSense driver is now described as a bad product that moves in the direction of view even when it is just lying on the table, which is commonly referred to as drift. This can have its origin, for example, in the “gutted” mechanism, due to which the controls no longer return properly to the middle position, or it can be an inaccurate and poor quality production, calibration, ie there are various possible causes.
Such a thing can obviously be very annoying in any game, so it is understandable that the owners of such affected drivers resound.

But it is difficult to determine how big the problem is. First of all, Sony should know about this thanks to possible complaints. As the server states Extremetech, a sign of real problems with DualSense gamepads may be that people are starting to complain about recurring problems with already repaired products, as has been the case with Nintendo drivers. The users themselves talk about the fact that Sony does not even use a proper calibration system and that the problem may be solved only by adding a so-called dead zone, ie a certain small range of motion of the control, to which the system will not respond in any way. –
According to Kotak, Sony already repairs returned drivers under warranty, but people have to arrange and pay for their transport to the manufacturer. Sony is already sending them back at their own expense. So far, no one has embarked on the disassembly of the drifting DualSense gamepad, so we don’t even know what the problem is, whether it’s the wear of an element, the susceptibility to dirt, or something else.
