Overview
The Sony PlayStation DualShock 4 V2 Wireless Gamepad – Black is the second‑generation controller designed specifically for the PlayStation 4. Released in late 2016, it builds on the original DualShock 4’s success by refining ergonomics, adding a built‑in rechargeable battery, and enhancing wireless performance with Bluetooth 2.1+EDR. Its sleek black finish and compact dimensions (162 mm wide × 98 mm deep × 57 mm high) make it comfortable for long gaming sessions.
Design & Build
The controller’s chassis is a lightweight polycarbonate shell weighing only 210 g. The matte black surface offers a subtle, professional look while providing a non‑slip grip. A LED backlight strip runs along the top edge, allowing users to customize lighting or use it as an on‑screen indicator during gameplay.
A key feature of the V2 model is its removable USB cable (Micro‑B), enabling wired play or charging. The controller also includes a 3.5 mm stereo headset jack for audio output and microphone input, making it suitable for voice chat.
