If you're talking about the paddle attachment, it wouldn't work even if the port was the same. Look at the shape of the ds and ds4 between the 2 handless and the back.

The DPAD and SHAPE buttons don't look any different in touch-surface shape to DS4.
edit: Actually, CROSS and especially CIRCLE wrap to the curvature of the handle.

I'm hyped AF too. Got to enjoy moments like these when you can.
We don't know about the Series X yet, but the One X doesn't support the USB dongle for the existing Gold Wireless headsets. It works, but you need to plug it into the controller with a 3.5mm audio cable.
I never use those shortcut buttons anyway. Just go Home -> To where I want.
50-70 US dollars. I don't like paying much for headphones cause I always have bad luck with them and also my family is careless when it comes to electronics.
I'd believe it if the buttons were blue...
I really like that PlayStation has started to utilize the symbols more, especially for loading screens .The textures on the console/accessories/grip texture on the DS5 actually being hundreds of tiny iconic PlayStation symbols is so damn sexy.
Oyyyy. Maybe we can coexist, maybe we can't, not sure.
I use all those buttons, even the color ones. Yellow: Switches receiver to nightmode, Red: puts receiver in stereo ect. ect.
Not a fan of multiple remotes!
Staring you in the face but not necessarily obvious observations:
DualSense has no hard separator between L1—L2 and R1—R2 so if you use your forefinger for both (rocking/sliding), you may be able to transition more smoothly.
The surface area of L1 and R1 has also grown significantly.

The lightbar on the front alone instead of back I would think would give more space for battery pack correct? Hoping this thing can hit 15+ hours on a single charge. My PS4 controllers are all 6ish hours or so.
I'm assuming you mean for VR?
I'd hope not. I would think they'd probably just make a good controller that works for both.
Maybe they will do camera tracking with the DualSense.
That controller is a sexy thang. That said, the black one better not have white buttons or they can keep that shit.
I think the low micro-usb, RGB LED sub-board and light pipe in DS4 are mostly housed in the extra V-shaped bump under the controller which is smoothed out on DualSense.
Any lightbar tracking game.
Any new, more advanced 1:1 position tracking solution introduced in a brand new split controller could be added to DualSense with a cheaper add-on.

Not sure what battery life it might give but those Taiwan NCC images looks like they show a 1500mAh battery on one of the drawings versus 800mAh on DS4.
Ooh. Hopefully double but with the haptics maybe a 50% improvement at least. 10-12 hours would be okay I guess. Tho Switch Pro gets 40+ with HD Rumble so who knows.
Same. I really want to know what those triggers feel like. The impact triggers in the Xbox One controller are my favourite aspect and this is so much more than that. Shame it's rarely used. Hopefully that's not the case with Dual Sense.
I was thinking 10 hours would be a realistic expectation. Switch Pro has a 1300mAh for 40+ hours so it could be quite a bit more than 10 hours if Sony improved efficiency?
The external label number is usually max. input charging voltage and current, DC 5V 800mA for DualShock 4, but the battery inside supplies 3.65V with 1000mAh /3.7Wh capacity.
Unless there's a shot of the DualSense battery, all we know is the controller probably supports a higher max. charging current of 1.5A at 5V.
You could speculate about the relation between charging speed and capacity still!

Thanks for the explanation. I just did a quick search and found a cached page about the NCC test that does say the DualSense has a 3.65V/1560mAh battery (Sony LIP1708). If true then it would be a >50% bigger battery than DS4.
Looks like it, one of the patents even mentions a third mic in the array. Under the lip of the touchpad would be a good forward-facing location.
No more mystery! Unless the developer edition differs, 1560mAh / 5.7Wh is the battery capacity.
On the DS4 there's already quite a bit of empty room around the battery. The lightbar itself is just a thin sheet of clear plastic on the backside with a connector on the middle of the pcb. My ds4s already hit >10-12hrs with rumble off/dim setting. I'd hope it's much longer than that.
So.. the black controller is legit?
Because it doesn't look anywhere near as nice as the white one.

I get more than 10 hours on my DS4 and I consider that to be pretty bad. If this isn't 20 hours+ then I'll be very disappointed. :/
I've not tested my DS4 but I've never had a problem with how long a charge lasts though I rarely play more than 2-3 hour stints these days.
I have read posters here say they only get 5-6 hours and others like you and YouTube videos saying 10+. Going by the latter then I would agree 20+ hours for DualSense should be a lock assuming improved efficiency and capacity.
if I remember correctly, the v2 controllers that started shipping with PS4 Pro last longer than the v1 launch controllers. With vibration disabled and lightbar set to dim in the settings I get 12 hours. I shouldn't have to disable features though, sort it out Sony ffs.
It is legit. And it is just a testing and certification unit.

Lol I absolutely got the candles reference!
But yes, you can spend way less just by waiting or completing the games first then buying more.
I just want an all-white or black controller/console. Not a fan of the exo-skeleton look. Seems dated.
The console design has retroactively made the controller look really cool, for me. I didn't like it much at first.
The controller will last you 6-8hrs and most people here don't usually play that long in one sitting. It's that they don't always plug them in when done and the next time they do play and it dies on them, "something needs to be done".
Hehe, yeah it's also a constant mental battle talking myself into and out of the various accessories.
I see. Thanks.It is legit. And it is just a testing and certification unit.
