Chargers and Cables

Chargers and cables are an absolute necessity when it comes to your gaming experience. Whether it is for Xbox or PlayStation, you need them to keep your game going. And you can find that special charger or cable for your console or controller right now.

The Best Controller Cables

When it comes to chargers, you need to know exactly what type you are looking for. With Xbox Series X and PS5 controller cables, you are going to need a USB-C cable. This is because both of these next-gen controllers have a USB-C port. Whereas with Xbox One and PS4 cables, you will want to look for a micro USB cable. Again this is because of the cable ports that both controllers contain.

You may also be wanting to look at cable length. When it comes to controller cables, you are going to want a cable that is a bit longer. This is so that you don't have to worry about being right up close to your console and screen while playing. A longer controller cable will give you the ability to freely move without the wire stretching or detaching. 

Reliable Controller Chargers

When it comes to a lot of chargers, cables alone will do the trick. Especially for PlayStation controllers. As both the PS4 and PS5 controllers have built-in batteries, all you need to do to charge them is attach the controller to the console with a cable. But of course, you can only really do this effectively one at a time.

That is why we recommend a charging dock. Not only for PlayStation but for Xbox too. As this allows you to charge multiple controllers simultaneously. So that you can simply put a controller in charge while you are out and about, and instantly get back to gaming when you return. 

When it comes to Xbox controllers, you will need to consider the battery. Unlike PlayStation controllers, Xbox controllers require batteries to be used. So it can be quite a nuisance if you run out and have to get new ones. To combat this issue, we recommend a play and charge pack. As these allow you to easily play when you want, and not have to regularly pay for new batteries.
