Updated PS5 DualSense Controller Spotted Online, Listing Revealed 12-Hour Battery Life،
In a surprising turn of events, a publication spotted an updated version of the PS5 DualSense controller on an e-commerce platform. Even though Sony didn't reveal the controller at CES 2024, it did showcase new PS5 colors, including red, silver, and blue. However, the new controller would offer better autonomy than that currently available on the market.
Here's the name of the leaked PS5 controller
Recently, The Verge spotted a new PS5 DualSense controller on Best Buy's Canadian website. The listing was titled “PlayStation 5 V2 DualSense Wireless Controller,” with the model number “1000039935.” The price of the device listed on the website was $89.99, much higher than the retail price of the standard PS5 DualSense wireless controller.
The listing also promised better battery life
However, the listing included a click-in charging station in the box. While the standard controller offers seven to eight hours of battery life, depending on the game you're playing, the one in question claims to offer an “exceptional 12 hours of battery life.” This is a significant leap from what the current version offers and could be useful to many users who indulge in extended gaming sessions on their PlayStation.
All other features seem to be the same
However, aside from the increased battery life, all other aspects, such as vibration motors, adaptive triggers, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a built-in microphone, remain the same. Additionally, it is important to mention that the listing did not include all product specifications; it is therefore possible that this version will never be marketed.
Sony didn't reveal an update controller at CES 2024
As previously mentioned, Sony did not reveal an updated PlayStation DualSense controller at CES 2024. Instead, it showed off new colors with shimmering metal side plates, which should be available as an accessory at some point . In the past, we've seen Sony release colored side plates for the PS5, which also sets a precedent for new colorways. However, the Japanese giant demonstrated the possibility of controlling the Honda Afeela via the PS5 controller.
