The best DualShock 4 controller charging docks

Though you can charge your DualShock 4 controller with a USB cable plugged into your console, sometimes it's easier to buy a separate charging station. It's especially true if you have multiple controllers and use them frequently. If that's the case, you may be interested in some of the best we could find.

Y Team PS4 Controller Charging Station

Most of the stands on this list charge each controller side-by-side, this dock is a bit different. It features a vertical stand so that you can stack your controllers on top of each other. It's a minor difference in the grand scheme of things, but it may be necessary when figuring out where you'll fit it and how it will look with your gaming setup.

Multipurpose

All-in-one

And it features two docks on its side for fast 2-hour charging and a built-in protector chip so that you aren't ruining the batteries by overcharging them. It also sports storage space for up to 12 games.

Which charger will you choose?

While it might be a huge convenience to have one, you don't always need a separate charging station for your controller. It's just as productive to have a USB cable attached directly to your console that you can use to charge a controller. However, charging stations have a few uses. It makes it easier to store multiple controllers at once. Plus, it just looks cleaner and more stylish than a bunch of wires sticking out of your PS4.

The PowerA DualShock 4 Charging Station is the best one here due to its compact design and because Sony officially licenses it. You can't question its reliability when it's become so popular for a reason. And those looking for a little extra have other options to choose from that'll give you more bang for your buck.

Whatever the case, you can't go wrong with any of them as they're all high quality, and you'll be sure to find one that suits your needs well.

The hidden cost of food delivery

More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis.

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
