Extend PS4's DualShock 4 battery life without modding -- PlayStation Universe


I may look into doing this. Why they put that crap battery into the 4's is a ****ing cosmic mystery.

Is there at least an indicator? One of the gripes that I have witht he XB1 controller is that there is no indication of battery life at all. The only way you know it's out of juice is when the damn thing dies on you mid-gameplay.

That's good. How long on average does the battery on the DS4 last?

They claim 8, but in my experience 5-6 hours.

Out of curiosity, is the dual shock 4 as big an improvement over the dual shock 3 as I heard?

I think so. I wasn't a fan of the DS3 really.
