Sony's PS5 controller switches from the Micro-USB port of the DualShock 4 to a single USB Type-C connector for charging, wired play, and firmware updates. A 3.5mm TRRS headset jack on the bottom edge handles wired chat audio, with a built-in microphone array and speaker as Bluetooth-free alternatives. Like every PlayStation controller since the DualShock 3, a proprietary EXT accessory port sits next to the USB-C port for first-party charging docks — it is not exposed as a standard cable port. Total play time of around 12 hours from the 1,560 mAh battery.

Notes & Compatibility
USB Type-C replaces the DualShock 4’s Micro-USB charging port. The 3.5mm jack is TRRS — accepts standard headsets with mic. A proprietary EXT accessory port near the USB-C is used by Sony’s first-party charging stations; it is not a user-cable port. Built-in mono mic + speaker for chat. Bluetooth 5.1 for wireless pairing.
