Although it has been about two years since the release of Playstation 5, there are still some features of the latest generation Sony console that many users are not aware of. One of these certainly concerns the DualSensewhich has a quick shutdown system little known among the owners of the gaming machine.
It may happen that players need to turn off the controller to save its battery (by the way, have you already taken a look at our guide with tricks to increase the life of the PlayStation 5 controller as much as possible?), perhaps while the your new purchase is being preloaded/downloaded. At times like these, there’s nothing better than one shortcut that allows you to disable the device without navigating through the menus.
In this regard, know that you can simply turn off the PlayStation 5 DualSense holding down the middle buttonthe black one in the shape of the PlayStation logo, for a total of ten seconds. At the end of the operation, the controller will turn off exactly as it would have done through the accessory menus, but everything will happen more quickly and without the need to observe the screen. Although many of you will already know of the existence of this trick, many are not aware of it and thanks to it they can improve their experience with the Sony console.
Of course, there is also a second method to turn off the pad: just press the central button on the controller, move the cursor up ‘Accessories’ (the DualSense icon), select the device in the list and finally click on ‘Switch off’. Alternatively, you can visit the ‘Controller settings’ item to change some parameters related to the speaker volume, microphone operation or features such as adaptive triggers.
