PS5 Controller Test
Use the live browser tester to check DualSense buttons, sticks, triggers, touchpad click, and practical haptics support on PC or Mac.
Waiting for gamepad…
Connect your PS5 DualSense and press any button to start testing buttons, sticks, triggers, touchpad click, and browser haptics.
What this page is best for
The browser can confirm most practical DualSense inputs, but some PS5-specific hardware features stay outside standard web APIs.
Best setup for PS5 controller testing
USB-C is the cleanest baseline. Bluetooth is convenient, but browser support is less predictable.
- Use Chrome or Edge first. They expose the broadest practical Gamepad API support for DualSense.
- Press any button after the page opens. Browsers will not expose the controller until there is user interaction.
- Prefer USB for rumble checks. Bluetooth may still work, but wired mode is much more reliable for browser-side haptics.
- Treat Safari as a fallback. Basic detection may work, but complete input and haptics behavior is weaker there.
What the browser can confirm — and what it cannot
The DualSense has more hardware features than the standard web controller model exposes.
- You can confirm buttons, D-pad, sticks, trigger input range, stick clicks, menu buttons, and touchpad click.
- You can often confirm whether a browser-runnable rumble actuator is available, especially in Chrome or Edge over USB.
- You cannot fully validate adaptive trigger resistance, full native PlayStation haptics, or every touch-surface gesture through the standard browser API.
- That limitation matters because a failed browser result does not always mean the controller is broken; sometimes it only means the browser did not expose the feature.
What to open next
Use the focused pages below when the issue is already narrowed to one part of the controller.
If face buttons or shoulders feel inconsistent, open the Controller Button Test. If the sticks never settle near center, switch to the Stick Drift Test. If the main concern is rumble or haptics, use the Controller Vibration Test.
