"This is the single greatest piece of kit you can add to your PS4"
5 stars"

Mine arrived on Tuesday and I just plugged it in today. I am not disappointed! Sure the controller is a USB plug-in, but it provides you with extra confidence when you are in the midst of an epic battle and you know you won't lose your controller connection at the most critical moment. I think it'll take me some time to learn this controller's fe­atures and switching to using different buttons and profiles, but even my first couple of hours using it has been epic. The comfort of the controller was the first thing I noticed. The shape kind of looks more like one of the old Xbox controllers but with the Sony button layout and it really feels perfect. Additional triggers on the underside and extra bumper buttons are all in perfect reach and it's all starting to feel so much better than my standard controller. The responsiveness of the commands feels more in tune with your gaming due to the tactile return of the buttons (also mostly you can hear/feel an audible click when you press a command button), and the d-pad has individual direction buttons rather than the older style 8 point pivot. The Razer Raiju has me wondering if I could consider going pro (every gamer's dream) because it sure makes you feel like one. I am considering getting into e-Sports as a result – this controller is my e-Gym equipment, and I've just had a heck of an e-Workout. Buy this controller!

"Great...but"

Purchased on Mighty Ape

Great controller, loving the extra buttons and paddles but would have preferred a wireless controller, for it's size you would think its wireless

"Im the last person to bad mouth razer but...."
2 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This controller is amazing I love most things about it, takes a little time to get used too but so far I've had 3 of these and they've all broken within 3 months… I don't slam them off desks or throw them or anything just seems to be terrible build quality.

"Good controller but..."
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I had the controller for about 3 months before the circle button jammed in and the left analog stick got stuck on. I have been gaming all my life and it is a great controller just poorly made. Very comfortable to play on though.

"Not a good controller"
1 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The left thumb stick squeaks whenever you move the thing The hair trigger switchs are useless as when you switch them on you have to firmly press the L2 or R2 buttons to get them to work The dpad buttons are clunky and noisy Whoever designed this had tiny hands and obviously never uses actual controllers Would not recommend

"I really loved this controller."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Had this controller for one year and loved every second of it! Playing with it most every single day even. But just a few days ago the R2 trigger broke on me and my heart sank! Domt let this stop you though, it is without doubt a good controller!

"Well worth it"
5 stars"

I've wanted this controller for months, being a Razer fan. I started playing ESO and this is perfect. I've had no complaints or difficulties, use for most games but I di prefer the standard controller for games that just require it (crash, I expect spyro, resident evil etc)
