Review on dreamGEAR Dual Charge Dock for PlayStation 4 by Damien Holland

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Terrible design on batteries and chargers

This PS3/PS4 dual controller charger is by far the worst design. Don't buy them. First, it's almost impossible to plug the controllers into the charger together. They made the micro-USB connector plug, the part that plugs into each controller, at least twice as long as a regular micro-USB. Because of this, they are fragile. That fragility alone might have been fine if the design hadn't suffered such a major flaw. The controllers should be plugged into these double length USB pins and nothing else should stabilize them. In addition, they didn't even offer enough space for both controllers. If you've got both turned on, spent 10 minutes messing with the USB ports on each controller, turned one on only to knock it over while trying to squeeze the other in (back and forth, you get the idea), there there is no guarantee they are even free. The lights change from blue to red while charging, but the poor design and weird USB connector never lets you know the controller is secure. Having only used them a couple of times, I'm pretty sure that one side doesn't work and the other is questionable.

Pros
  • Only positive
