Since Sony doesn't make PS3s anymore if you want to by a Sony brand PS3 controller you looking at a $90 price tag. Your other option is to buy a 3rd party controller like this one. I have bought others before (3 or 4) and they were all crap. Either they were too light, or if you are not pressing any buttons at all the controller automatically always presses left, which is a huge pain in many games to need to be accurate. I decided to try another brank as the 4 controllers I have all crap. I got this one and I fell in love. The weight is just right and makes a solid controller. The design is slightly different than a Sony controller but you quick get over that and realize this controller is perfect. I already threw away 2 of my other controllers and plan on getting more of these. I only gave ease of use a 4 star as it feels slightly different fell than the Sony controller.
My original controller finally bit the dust...after shopping and comparing, I chose the Bek Design. It works just the same as the original AND I can always find it!
Product was exactly as described and padded for shipping. Arrived fast and in great condition. The controller has a great feel while holding it and isn't bulky. Connecting it was a breeze and so far we've had absolutely no problems with battery life or connectivity (which was a problem with our old controller). I'm pleasantly impressed with this as the price was more affordable than other controllers. Highly recommend and will be purchasing more controllers as backup!
Controller arrived on time, looked great, and functions well. Teenager gives it good reviews. So, thank you for that! Have only had it about 6 weeks, but no damage, which is great considering this thing gets dropped A LOT.
When 3 of my Sony PS3 controllers all shorted out within 2 months of each other, despite having bought them years apart, I was looking for a good replacement. My new Bek red PS3 controller has been used continually since I received it! the end of December 2017. It is sensitive, and though it feels a bit different from a Sony in the click of the buttons, it works so well that I've been very pleased and have already ordered a second for a friend. The toggles are smooth and work well. I did turn down my look sensitivity in game a bit so I could fine tune my movements. It feels good in my hands, and there is no lag or hiccups. I would highly recommend this for anyone who games a lot and wants an affordable PS3 controller(s). Would buy again and again!
I ordered this for my old Play station 3. It works great and saved me from thinking I needed to replace the whole Play Station and spend big bucks. The price was reasonable, the shipping was fast and I'm very pleased with it.
Our original PS3 controller broke, and we needed a new one. I was hesitant about buying an off brand, but i also didn’t want to pay for the Sony controller. I’m very pleased with this. We don’t play video games, so I’m not sure how good the controller is for that. We just use it to navigate through Netflix, no smart tv here. I didn’t realize that this purchase did not include the cable, but luckily ours is still working just fine. The controller feels sturdy and looks very nice, not cheapy looking. I would definitely buy this again.
My dad's had this PS3 since it came out and it's understandably old; so old it now doesn't really play discs very well. Since he could no longer really use it for gaming (he just got a different system), my mom took it and put it in her kitchen so she could have YouTube and Netflix playing in the background while she cooks. The previous wireless controller we had before finally decided to die and she was in need of a new one and since she isn't going to be using it for even light gaming, I got this one. After it arrived extremely late (thanks USPS) my mom opened it and said that it felt cheaper than the other controller and it was lighter and she felt if you used it for gaming it would probably break pretty easily. However, she said it would suit her needs and thus far it has. I'll update this review if this opinion changes.

Love the rubber pads
The controller works well, but one thing that made it stand out is the little rubber pads that come with it, they are very comfortable

Not really good for gaming, but good for Netflix and Youtube
