Pros and cons

According to our controller expert

• This controller is asymmetrical and therefore the layout is very recognizable for those who have played with an Xbox controller.
• The buttons on this controller are quite sensitive and therefore respond quickly.
• This controller doesn't have a light bar.
• Because the button layout of this controller isn't symmetrical, you'll have to get used to the layout if you're used to the DualShock 4 controller.

Description

You can use the Nacon Wireless Official Controller Black PS4 for the PS4. The Nacon looks like a standard PS4 controller, but this one is asymmetric. This makes the shoulder buttons larger than those of the DualShock 4. You can make a wireless connection with your PS4 with the included USB dongle and play your favorite game for hours without breaks. With a 7-hour battery life, you'll be set for a while. If it's time to recharge, the controller will let you know via the LED lights. If the light turns red, you know you have to recharge the Nacon.

Note: This controller doesn't have an symmetric button layout, as opposed to the PlayStation DualShock 4 controller.

The better controller for shooters!

• No input lag
• fits well in the hand
• great for shooters
• Only connection via USB dongle

After a few weeks I was able to form a reasonable opinion about this product:

Build Quality:
I'll start with the biggest flaw: I have the impression that this controller, despite its price, is made of cheaper plastic. It all feels that way. The controller could have been a little heavier. Unfortunately, the levers also feel a bit light and cheaper.
Still, I'm sure this controller can withstand quite a bit of abuse! The triggers on the back click better than those of the regular PS4 controllers.

Usage:
To use this (PS4 or PC) you must always insert the USB dongle into the device to be controlled. This is a shame on the PS4, because you quickly lose a USB port, but luckily there are also USB hubs that you can purchase.
However, the first connection goes smoothly and you can quickly get started with the device!
When you start up CoD, Battlefield or borderlands you notice that the reaction time is perfect and it is a pleasure to use this controller!
For shooters, I always liked X-box's controller more. So you can believe I had a big smile on my face when Nacon announced to release a wireless controller with a similar layout! Frag them all!

looks:
sleek look without frills. The blue light at the bottom of the ps button is a nice touch.

LOOK OUT:
This controller does not have the ability to be detected by your PS camera! There are no lights on the back like on the official PS4 controllers. So no combination with PSVR!

Decision:
I bought the controller purely to play shooters. As well as GTA V and Red Dead play handy with this one.
After a few weeks of testing, I certainly do not regret this purchase. Also because it is cheaper than Nacon's pro controller.
Nacon makes good controllers and has proven this again.

Shooters play nicely as I had hoped. The device fits comfortably in the hand and has withstood many a knock. The PS USB dongle is certainly not necessarily a hindrance because it works smoothly.
Top controller!

Had bought a second-hand version, there was nothing to complain about and no scratch or sign of use to be seen
