PS5 Controller Test — DualSense Buttons & Sticks

Test any controller online: press buttons to light them up, watch live stick crosshairs, measure stick drift against a deadzone circle and try vibration.

Connect a controller and press any button on it — browsers only reveal gamepads after real input.

This page opens the gamepad tester for the PS5 DualSense: connect it over USB-C or Bluetooth, press any button and every control appears in the live grid.

In the standard mapping Cross is button 0, Circle is 1, Square is 2 and Triangle is 3; L1 and R1 sit on 4 and 5, and the adaptive L2 and R2 triggers report analog values on 6 and 7 — in the browser they behave as plain triggers, since adaptive resistance is a console feature. Create, Options, the stick clicks, the D-pad, the PS button and the touchpad click (usually slot 17) complete the list.

DualSense sticks are a frequent drift complaint, so use the deadzone circle: release both sticks and check that the idle offset stays near zero. The vibration test plays a classic dual-rumble effect — the DualSense's fine-grained haptics are not exposed to browsers, so a plain strong buzz is the correct, honest result here.

Accepted Formats & Rules

  • Live buttons grid polled from navigator.getGamepads() — pressed state plus fractional values for analog triggers.
  • Two stick crosshairs with a toggleable deadzone circle, per-stick idle offset readout and raw axis values.
  • Dual-rumble vibration test through the controller's vibration actuator, feature-detected with an honest not-supported note.

Key Benefits

✓ Works with any pad the operating system sees: Xbox, DualSense, DualShock, Switch Pro and generic USB or Bluetooth controllers.
✓ Honest drift measurement: a 10% deadzone ring plus a numeric idle offset per stick instead of a vague "looks off-center".
✓ Tested controls stay marked: every button that ever registered keeps a highlight, so you always see what is left to press.

Use Cases

  • • Check a second-hand controller before paying: press every button and pull both triggers to see their fractional values respond.
  • • Measure stick drift: release both sticks and read the idle offset — a stick resting outside the 10% deadzone circle drifts.
  • • Find out whether weak rumble is the game's fault or the pad's: run the dual-rumble vibration test right in the browser.
