## Key points

- Nacon’s $230 controller offers extensive customisation for PS5 and PC.
- TMR sticks and trigger stops target competitive play.
- Battery lasts about 11 to 12 hours, but PS5 remote-start is absent.

## Summary

Nacon’s Revolution 5 Unlimited is a premium PlayStation 5 and PC controller aimed at competitive players who want extensive control customisation. Its many swappable parts, shortcut buttons and adjustable settings offer flexibility, but the reviewer found the sheer number of options overwhelming.

Priced at $230, it uses TMR joystick sensors designed to reduce wear and stick drift, and includes trigger stops, interchangeable D-pads and stick heads, adjustable grip weights, a charging dock and a built-in settings screen. Battery life was around 11 to 12 hours, better than the standard DualSense, while PC mode supports polling rates of up to 1,000Hz wired and 500Hz wirelessly. Drawbacks include no remote-start for the PS5 and USB-A leads that do not plug directly into the console’s front ports.
