What kind of charging port/cable does the Dualshock 4 use? Is it like the micro USB cable that the Dualshock 3/SIXAXIS PS3 controllers use? Or is it like the micro USB cable that most android phones use? (hoping for the former, I have a nice long PS3 one).

Damn, I don't have any of those. Hopefully the one that comes with the PS4 is long. But I'm getting the feeling i"ll have to buy a long one. Oh well thanks for the response Smile

just a thing to add - if you buy a separate controller they no longer come with a usb cable to charge/sync them with .-.

Yeah no problem; Should mention that the DS 3 actually uses a Mini-B USB cable.. I wonder why they didn't use a Mini-B for the DS4?

So you will just have to use the one included with the system./


Does the DS3 cable work with the DS4?
