    I didn’t even know you could get a USB C mod for the PS4 controller. I just bought a dualsense controller for the games on PC I needed motion controls in (can’t use an Xbox gamepad in those) since it uses USB C and I didn’t want to buy a controller I couldn’t charge with my other cables.

      I have both, and I prefer the Dualsense for its larger touchpad and less intrusive light bar, but the Dualshock is lighter which is nice for this setup.

      The usb-c mod is easy to install, in theory; you just disconnect a single ribbon cable and swap out the entire pcb with the port on it. The harder part of the mod is carving a hole in the plastic, since usb-c ports are wider than micro ports.

      I think eXtremeRate now sells a back shell with the usb-c hole already cut!
