Talks About Battery Problems In Controllers Reignite Once Again

With the big light bar on the front that lights up when it is in use, as well as its handy and sleek design, the DualShock 4, the PS4’s controller, is really futuristic. The controller was almost perfect, had it not had one big problem: its battery. Due to the same big light bar in front of the controller, the DualShock 4’s battery is quickly drained, and if there’s one thing that we all like, it’s long battery life… and DualShock 4 didn’t really meet that standard. But the battery problem is not only exclusive to Sony’s PlayStation; Microsoft’s Xbox has its share of battery problems, too.

Without electrical juice controllers are just paperweights, and Sony and Microsoft continue to take dramatically different approaches to solving that problem.

The problem of batteries in controllers has always been a problem ever since the release of wireless controllers, and now that next-gen consoles are about to be released some time soon, talks about this issue once again return to the surface.
