In my experience, these higher end controllers geared towards FPS gamers usually omit vibration motors. Saves weight and it's a distraction during competitive shooters. I've always had them removed in any custom controller I've bought, anyway.
No licensed third-party controller for PlayStation includes rumble.It's not a Razer decision — it's simply a limitation for anyone making officially licensed PlayStation gear.I'd rather have a licensed, stable controller from legitimate brands than gamble on rumble from an unlicensed off-brand that may or may not even work properly with future PlayStation updates.
That's odd. The original Scuf Vantage was officially licensed and had removable rumble motors. I wonder why the change?

I don't think Scuf even makes their controllers from scratch, they take OEM controllers and mod the crap out of them. I think the issue is whatever locked wireless protocol Sony has, that's why you need a dongle for these third-party wireless controllers. Xbox is the same way.

Purchased this controller at launch for $220... it is well worth the $130 sale price! Mouse click buttons, TMR sticks that are VERY smooth, 2 additional top buttons, and 4 additional back paddles (you can remove these and place a blank in those spots if you don't want to use them).
As others have mentioned it doesn't have rumble capability, but I don't use that feature in general so wasn't an issue. No rumble is a plus for me because it means the controller is lighter and the battery will last longer. If you have a PS5... just note that the controller will NOT wake your PS5 up from sleep/shut down. I have another PS controller nearby and just push the PS button on it and then sign in with the Raiju (and the other controller just shuts off).
It feels very light but well made in your hands. The grip works well even after long sessions (for those with clammy hands).
I've been happy with the controller. Just bummed I paid an extra $90 for mine!

Mediocre controller, no vibration, janky support by most games. Loses connection and lots of wrong inputs. Just get a PS5 Pro will be worlds better
