Cutting the cord in your controllers gaming accessories setup usually comes down to one question: which console are you actually playing? If you need a wireless pad for a Sony PlayStation 4, the $15.00 Wireless Controller Bluetooth Gamepad For PS4 is the direct match.

It connects over Bluetooth and carries a 5-10 meter wireless range spec, which should cover a typical living-room setup. The model is an arcade-style controller, so the shape may feel different from a standard gamepad. The trade-off is that its compatibility is focused on PS4. If you have one current console and want a simple wireless pad for it, this is the direct choice. The higher price makes sense when you value the Bluetooth link and the focused PS4 compatibility more than versatility across retro systems.
