The best DualSense charging stations will help you keep gaming cord free rather than tether yourself to your PS5. Few things are more annoying (in the gaming hardware world) than running out of battery in your controller(s) when you're in the middle of a gaming session. While the DualSense is a big step forward from the DualShock 4 in terms of battery life, it's still not on par with Xbox or Switch controllers. You get up to 12 hours of battery life on a single charge, but this number can be dramatically reduced if you're playing games that make use of features such as lighting effects, adaptive triggers, rumble, and the internal speakers. It's always a good idea to charge your controllers between play sessions, and a dedicated charging station is a good way to always remember to do just that.

DualSense charging stations also have another handy use case--they double as controller stands; so you'll naturally be inclined to place your controllers in the cradle when you're done playing. If you're having some marathon gaming sessions (Elden Ring, anyone?), avoiding the dreaded battery drain can sometimes be impossible. Since the included USB-C cable isn't lengthy enough to be practical for most setups, you may also want to invest in a longer cord such as this 16-foot cablethat's compatible with DualSense and Xbox Series X|S controllers.
