PS4: 15 Cool Tips, Tricks & Secrets You Must Try

15. Charge The Dualshock 4 With Your Phone Charger

The newest Dualshock is easily the finest iteration Sony have put out yet, adopting the thick-set design of Microsoft's Xbox controllers to great effect - but in loading in so much functionality through touch-pads, LED lights and pressure-sensitive triggers it makes for one hell of a drain on the battery. Luckily the DS4 can be fully charged away from the console - literally anything with a USB power source will provide the right amount of juice, just watch for the controller's light glowing yellow until it's finished. The DS4's port is a micro USB, so your phone might already have the requisite cable.
