There are a couple of chargers that will offer you the option to get those magnetic USB-C adapters to extend the durability of the port itself. Instead of plugging in the controller all the time, you plug it in once, and then it starts charging automatically when you put it on the stand. The difference between the OIVO, and those chargers, is that, unlike the other options that only give you two magnets, OIVO includes four. If you’re using more than two controllers, this is something you’ll definitely appreciate. You can charge a PS5 controller without the console by plugging it into a USB wall plug or charging station.

However, turn on the blue light bars on both sides and it instantly becomes a talking point because it really looks great. To make things even better, the lightbars are touch-sensitive, so you can turn them on or off as you wish. The blue light is exactly the same as the one on the PS5 itself, so it matches very well. If you’re looking to get a fast, reliable, and aesthetically pleasing charger for your PlayStation 5, Sony is probably your best bet, which is why we’re recommending the official DualSense Charging Station. It’s a rather simple and compact variant that allows you to charge up to two controllers at the same time, without the need to use cables, at all. As long as you have a USB-C cable, then you can use any modern phone charger to charge your PS5 controller. Do bear in mind that some phone chargers will likely charge your controller faster than others. 4.

The official way to charge the PS5 controller is by plugging it directly into one of the USB-A ports on the PS5 using the included USB cable or using the separately sold DualSense Charging Station.

It takes about two to three hours to charge a PS5 controller when plugged directly into the PS5 or a DualSense charging station.

Earning our users' trust is central to what we do.If you want something affordable and high quality, this officially licensed twin charging station from PowerA is perfect. It got the seal of approval from Sony and even comes with a similar look and the same snap-down charging design as the official offering, but at a lower cost.

DualSense charging stations also have another handy use case--they double as controller stands; so you'll naturally be inclined to place your controllers in the cradle when you're done playing. If you're having some marathon gaming sessions (Elden Ring, anyone?), avoiding the dreaded battery drain can sometimes be impossible. Since the included USB-C cable isn't lengthy enough to be practical for most setups, you may also want to invest in a longer cord such as this 16-foot cable that's compatible with DualSense and Xbox Series X|S controllers. You can put two controllers at the top, and they use the charging pins at the inside of the controller for charging. This means that you aren’t potentially damaging the USB-C port at the rear, and you still get fast charging – the station can charge up to two controllers in less than two hours, which is impressive.

🍪 Privacy & Transparency

On the outside, the design is an all-white solution with LEDs at the front. There is a red light for when the controller is still charging, and a green one for when it’s full. Since it’s at the front, it is easily visible and you won’t have to guess whether or not your controller is full.
