What's great about it: good quality, good color
What's not so great: price too high, no charging cord, dirties easily
What can I say? It's the exact same controller as what comes with the console to begin with, so you know it's good. Plus, I got it in white, which just looks cool (as many others have said before me)-although I anticipate it getting dirty quickly. My only gripe about this product is that it does NOT come with a charging cord. I did a live chat with BestBuy and asked that SPECIFICALLY and was told that it DOES, in fact, come with a charging cord, however when I received the product, there was NO cord with it. That was disappointing. I already have one cord that came with the original controller and console, so it's not a big enough issue for me to return it, but it is a little inconvenient. I'll probably be purchasing the cord separately at some point. But the controller is great. Just know-like some others have pointed out-that it WILL NOT come with a charging cord-you'll have to get that separately. Also, I think the price is kind of outrageous, but all PS products seem to be costly, so there's that.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Old school look!
What's not so great: Gets dirty quick!
I bought this controller because a brief moment of rage caused my last controller to spontaneously explode! Ha ha ha
Works great of course as most Sony products do!
Love the old school look of the white kinda reminds me of an original Nintendo controller! (I know they were grey....)
Only thing that sucks is that the white color show dirt in the seems when your "skin sheds." Come on you guys know what I mean!

What's great about it: WHITE!
This is just one of those regular PS3 controllers thats in all white which I thought looked awesome! I hate how theyre $55 a piece but I was lucky enough to snag one when it was on sale for $40 which is a reasonable price! Nothing special with this just the color! The only thing different is that the white looks awesome! If you want an extra controller pick this one up!

Just like the one the comes out of the box with the PS3. If you like that one you will like this one. The only difference is it is white.

Nothing special about this controller just a regular ps3 controller but in white (which is a sick color) it brings back the ps1. I think the white one is way cooler than all the other colors... it also looks cool next to the black ps3...this will be my go to controller

What's great about it: The design and look
What's not so great: The price $60 is a little to much
I am very satisfied with this product I love every thing about it except the $60 price but I guess it is worth it. I don't even remember how many times I have dropped it but it has held up. It also reminds me of the good old days of the ps1 the style and color. 2 thumbs up good job PlayStation.

Playstation controllers always have been great. They are comfortable while playing. This white controller is pretty but I have to make sure I wash my hands before because it can get dirty with time.

What's great about it: Comfortable
What's not so great: Battery life not as long
So smooth and comfortable to play with. The first one I had with my first ps3 was getting so dirty, because the other people would use it while they're eating, etc. But yep, it is amazing.

What's great about it: The white color looks really cool
What's not so great: It doesn't match with the console and it doesn't charge with the console unless it's on
This is a controller that does the same as the Black, Silver, Blue, and Red Controllers but it's great White Ceramic finish in my opinion tops all other. I was deciding between a Black, Silver, and White controller but Black would look the same as the one that comes with the console, silver just would look ugly, and finally white topped all because of the white that makes the black buttons pop out. And I know it doesn't match with the PS3 but it's still looks sick (As in cool). Also, Blue and Red looked tackey. Now the controller works great but doesn't charge while the console is off. Hoped My review helped!
