Review on ๐Ÿ’ก Sony DualShock 4 Charge Station: Efficient Dual Controller Charger for PS4 (CUH-ZDC1/E) in Sleek Black by Mateusz Zjc แ Œ

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like everything, the quality is good, the price is acceptable.

The product has a great build quality, but the instructions for installing the gamepad might be clearer. It's possible that this is a problem unique to me, as I have not come across any other people who have mentioned this issue. The benefits of it include: Made to an extremely high standard. There is no danger of the entire structure, which has gamepads mounted on it, collapsing because the plastic is solid and thick, and there are weights inside. The cable connector is discretely hidden in the casing from the bottom side. The design is pleasant and as concise as possible, with no light bulbs or other embellishments. It is particularly awesome (and it was very essential to me) that the gamepads are not displayed in an inverted manner on it, as is the case with their Chinese equivalents. The station is very advanced. Even when the gamepad is inserted on the station, it will not charge if the battery has not been significantly depleted (roughly speaking, until the first division goes, if you look at the charge level from the PS4). This is done to prevent the battery from being overworked by an excessive number of charge cycles. It is very convenient that the gamepads have a special connector for the station, it is larger than a standard micro-USB and there are no latches and hooks - the gamepad literally lies on the contacts with its mass, and then it is quietly removed, without the effort and risk of breaking / loosening something. This makes it very easy to connect and disconnect the gamepad from the station. The design of the connection between the gamepad and the station is one of the things that detracts from the overall experience for me. Both the connector and the plug itself are of an exceptionally high quality and can be relied upon. However, it is EXTREMELY challenging to charge a gamepad without looking at it. You have to adjust it very precisely; otherwise, it won't "stick in," and you'll have to fidget with the gamepad while blindly feeling for the perfect location, which can cause the plug of the station to scratch the gamepad. It is a surprise to me why I was unable to make a small tapering cone for the plug in the gamepad or make a notch in the charging station so that the gamepad could not miss its place. Both of these options would have ensured that the gamepad could not miss its place. To answer your question about the cost, all I can say is that it's a Sony. The original stand, which is shaped like a piece of clear plastic and fastened together with a screw and retails for $1,500 (what more can I say about this product, which includes wires and electronic components? On the other hand, I haven't been able to locate a better charging station for myself as of yet.
