Just noticed this through the PlayStation site, linked to ShopTo and is about £3 cheaper than amazon, GAME etc. could be used for PC games or PS4 on remote play

Yeah, I've used my PS4 controller connected via Bluetooth and it works perfectly wirelessly. One time set up of DS4Windows I think it was called and that's it

Or you could just use a standard USB Bluetooth dongle [~€2] and get the same desired effect.

A good price, but it's ridiculous that only one DS4 can be paired per USB adaptor :disappointed:

Controller
Added Steam Configurator support for PS4 Dual Shock Controller. Enable in Big Picture settings Add/Test Controller settings. When enabled, PS4 controllers will have access to the same sort of customization/configuration support as Steam Controllers, including native API support. PS4 Controllers using this system can map the trackpad, gyro, buttons, etc. to keyboard, mouse, or x-input outputs and can make use of action sets, touch menus, radial menus, and so forth.
Added software gyro+accelerometer integration for IMUs without hardware integration. Allows Joystick-Move/D-Pad/Mouse Leaning support for the PS4 gyro input.
Added New Mode – Joystick Mouse. This is a joystick based mouse control useful for stick based controllers.
Added controller preference setting for haptics. Haptics can now be globally disabled for a controller or default to the configuration preferences.

There is nothing extra to this beyond a laptop that has Bluetooth access already is there?

range is crap, and you can only use 1 controller.

Not really. You didn't solve the "wireless" part of it.

Initially when I was researching remote play, I read that this is the only way to get the audio port on the PS4 controller working when the controller is used wirelessly with a pc.
However, further research gave such conflicting information that I never went ahead with the purchase.

This works out of the box with steam controller configurator as well as PS4 Remote Play. Far better experience than using a standard bluetooth adapter. Pairing is literally just pushing in the USB Adapter and putting your controller into pairing mode. Job done. It will work in any steam game including the touchpad.
Well work the money!
I own this and have used it a lot with PS4 Remote Play app on my mac. I can say with 100% certainty that the 3.5mm audio port works in this environment.

Only get this if your laptop for whatever reason doesn't have bluetooth on it, otherwise you're wasting money. Google how to connect PS4 controllers with PC. You've been able to do it pretty much ever since the PS4 came out
