Based on the description on their site, the controller includes a built-in battery: "8.39 Wh Li-ion battery, 35+ hours of gameplay... "
That was disappointing for me. Specially condidering the Steam Frame's controllers make use of AA batteries: "One replaceable AA battery per controller, 40hr battery life"
AA Batteries might not be as convenient to use, but being able to replace them is a great advantage. All my Xbox360 controllers still work fine, but none of my PS3' Dualshock 3s.
The official docking station could be used to recharge (rechargables) AA batteries so the functionality could remain the same.
You can put a higher capacity battery in, at least on the DS4 and probably older models. Same is true for the newer DualSense controllers.
Oh interesting, thanks. I meant a Dualsense indeed, not Dualshock
That's so funny, never been around playstation much but I could've also sworn they were called dualshock. Bernstein bears or whatever 😅
I see how my phrasing lead to the misunderstanding: I didn't mean Dualshock don't exist. They are the older versions, Dualsense are the newer ones
