I had previously had two Power A chargers with the two previous PS4s I owned so this time around I wanted to try something new. This charger works as it should and the controllers are secure when charging. Since it doesn't grab the controllers like some other docks you don't risk scratching them.
The light overlay imo is really neat and as I see it a big selling point of this model but I didn't like how the charging lights matched up to the cradles (the top light is the first cradle, bottom is second) but it was an easy 5 minute fix with my basic soldering skills.
The usb charging cable is pretty short as their idea was for the user to make use of the PS4's usb port so plan on buying a longer one or using an extension cable if you're using wall power. Also, make sure to hold the unit while removing a controller as I said they're really secured on. There's actually two pieces of metal screwed inside it to make it heavier but as good of a job the rubber feet do to keep it in place I might add more weight just in case it gets knocked into.
Any negative I mentioned is more personal preference or situational so I didn't knock off any stars for them.
