Dualshock 4 Wired vs. Wireless
-
There is supposedly something wrong with certain batches of the v2 PS4 dualshock 4 controllers where the wired connection has more lag than Bluetooth.
I watched a YouTube video with someone explaining it very well. If I can find it I'll link it. He also listed the starting serial numbers for the affected controllers.

I would be very interested in this video

Thank you. According to him, this issue applies with all controllers which are capable of being wired, because the model number he mentions is not a serial number but basically the full model number of the 'Dualshock 4 V2', which is also the only model being able to be wired in the first place.

Wouldn't surprise me, I play with a Nacon controller. It's wired functionality is fine and it has its own Bluetooth USB dongle for wireless, I'm straight

I was just watching that video and I use Bluetooth for my communication setting, so if I’m charging my controller but have Bluetooth still set, would the input lag be based off of the usb connection for the charging, or stay with the system settings?

As long as you have your controller connected through Bluetooth in the system settings, it will always transmit data that way and the USB cable will only function as a charging cable.

Ok thanks for the info! I wish sony would give us better info lol but I don’t mind the community solving it either

Sorry, just seeing this and nit sure I am following....are you saying setting up your controller as Bluetooth (even if using usb to charge) is better than hard wired in for connection speed?

Yes, as counterintuitive as that may sound that is true when it comes to DualShock 4 controller because of the polling rates.

Here is another Reddit thread with additional information.

I don't wire it, can confirm I get more P/P lineouts which is the desired output for the game as per Ramone.
