Sony PlayStation 5 (PS5) is an incredible gaming console and the DualSense controller that comes with it is packing some amazing technologies.
But one of the biggest drawbacks of the DualSense controller is that it doesn’t have a good battery life. Some users complained on Reddit that their controllers have a short battery life.
It seems Sony heard the complains and they are releasing an updated DualSense with a longer battery life, allegedly.
According to a Resetera forum user, ezidro3, he spotted a listing on Best Buy Canada that shows a “V2 DualSense Wireless Controller.”

The listing was taken down, but the user managed to save the description of the new controller.
- Compatible with the PlayStation 5
- Wireless connectivity ensures you will never get tangled up in wires while gaming
- Iconic comfortable design fits naturally in your hands
- Haptic feedback replaces the traditional rumble motors for more realistic gameplay
- Dynamic adaptive triggers let you experience different levels of force and tension as you interact with your game
- Built-in microphone lets you engage with fellow gamers in online play
- Headset jack lets you plug in your favourite headset, so you can tune in to your game audio easily
- DualSense charging station (included) offers easy click-in charging
- Exceptional 12-hour battery life, on a full charge, supports long gaming sessions
The V2 DualSense controller is being sold at CAD89.99 (~RM312) according to the deleted Best Buy listing.
If this is true, this could represent a substantial improvement over the current DualSense, which provides approximately six hours of battery life, depending on the game being played.
