Mine arrived today. It works great, even for online games too.

Though I noticed Sony don't include a charger*, just a USB charging cable.

Did anyone else notice the manual has no English translation? The main language seems to be French. Every other language in Europe is in the manual except English.

*I've been using my Switch charger.

I actually just ordered one of these due to the faff of using a cable to recharge:


Edit: Ah! I think you were talking about the PS handheld thing? My mistake.

They do make more of a difference than I ever expected, also a lot tidier and has saved me accidentally bashing the controller like I did with my PS4.

I picked up one of these Razer ones when it was on offer a while back, plus it was the only nice black one I could find

I bought an 8bitdo Ultimate controller with hall sticks and a dock just before Christmas for my PC, the convenience and even just the look really sold me on them.

I was ogling the Razer version, but for £12 I figured I'd give the Venom version a shot. I've actually had battery packs from them before too that were pretty decent.

Just on the Sony online store right now, pricing up a tv and cinema kit. Notice they have a PS5 camera. What would you use that for? Anyone aware of any video call apps I can use to chat to my parents in the UK? Obviously they don’t have a PlayStation 5 though :D

Not including under the auspices of saving the planet (and not because increasing profits.....) is common.

Aye whatever suits your setup.

I mainly went for the Razer because it's in the living room and is the most unnoticeable for where it is.

For £12 you can't go wrong really, especially if you've found other stuff they do has been decent.

You can use it to stream yourself when you broadcast to Twitch (and maybe YouTube). It's all built in to the OS.

That’s a tidy bit of kit. I have the official Sony charging dock. It’s essential in my view, particularly if you use the edge controller as the battery life isn’t great.

I’d wholeheartedly recommend a dock. Keeps things neat and tidy and ready to go!
