“Is there a way to turn off the PS5 Dualsense controller when not in use?”
A great way to save power on the PS5 controller is to set a timer when it’s in idle. By default the PS5 controller stays on when you set the controller down while playing games. We can change this so that the PS5 controller turns off automatically when idling.
- Starting from the PS5 home screen go to ‘Settings’.
- Go to ‘System’.
- Go down to ‘Power Saving’.
- Click on ‘Set Time Until Controllers Turn Off’.
- There are 4 options: 10min, 30min, 60min and Don’t turn off.
