The PlayStation 5 on its own is already an awesome thing to own. You can already play games without the need for other accessories. Still, wouldn't it be cool to level up your experience with your console with them? Here are some accessories you might want to purchase.
1. DualSense Charging Station
It's not uncommon to have more than one controller for your console. Of course, you'll need another one once the one you're using runs out of juice. The Dual Sense charging station has two docks so you can charge both controllers at the same time.
It also looks great for storing your DualSense controllers when not in use. With this, you can free up USB ports on your PS5, as pointed out by Tom's Guide. The downside is, it takes about three hours to fully charge your controller.
2. PS5 Media Remote
Your PlayStation console is capable of more than just gaming. You can use it for other media like streaming services such as Spotify, Netflix, YouTube, and more. To avoid draining out the controller's battery when you're not gaming, you can use the PS5 media remote instead. There are already dedicated buttons for apps.
3. Soundbar
The key to immersive gameplay aside from a good display is a great sound system. If you're not satisfied with the audio output of your TV, you can purchase a soundbar. The Yamaha ATS-2090 is an affordable soundbar that comes with a subwoofer.
4. Controller Keyboard
Do you know what's annoying about controllers? When you have to type something on your screen and you have to use arrows and select keys for every single character. No worries, you can attach a keyboard just below the joysticks.
There's nothing to install. Just snap it into place and you can use it almost immediately. No more struggling when typing in your email and password, or when chatting live. There is already a built-in speaker to listen to chat audio without the need for headphones.

5. SSD
Since the PS5 now offers SSD expansion, you can buy an SSD to have additional storage of up to 2 TB. The WD BLACK SN850 NVMe SSD has a 7000 Mbps read speed and a 5300 Mbps write speed. It also comes with its own heatsink. This particular SSD is an officially licensed M.2 SSD for PS5 consoles.
6. Headset
Others prefer their audio output through a headset as opposed to speakers. While some headsets can get quite expensive, there are those that are affordable without compromising quality, such as the HyperX Cloud Stinger Core.
According to Wired, this particular headset produces rich sounds and has a clear microphone attached. It's also comfortable to wear, which is a huge factor for some and is important for when you'll use it for long periods.
7. Wall Mount
This is more for display than gameplay experience. If you don't want your PS5 on any surface, you can purchase a wall mount for it. The Hosanwell wall mount is made of metal, and also has a place for PS5 accessories. It can hold two controllers and has a hook so you can hang your headset as well.
