The DualSense wireless controller can be charged via the USB-C® port to the PS5 or the DualSense Charging Station (sold separately) which allows the charging of two controllers at the same time. The typical recharge time when connected to a PS5 or dual charging station is estimated to be approximately three hours.

the controller can operate wirelessly via Bluetooth 5.1 or in a “wired” mode by connecting your controller to the PS5 with the USB cable.

the DualSense wireless controller has an integrated microphone array and built-in echo cancellation allowing players to have quick chats with friends without the need to set up a headset. However, if you are planning to talk for an extended period of time, you might want to have a headset nearby such as the PULSE 3D Wireless Headset.

The DualSense controller has a headset jack enabling players to plug in a headset, earbuds or another compatible audio device similar to the PS4.
