Q: Is this a model 2.0 controller?

A: Yes, it's the newest DualShock 4 Model, which is CUH-ZCT2. I have recommended the controller that is included with this product.

Q: Can I use this controller and dongle with Uplay and Origin? I know it works with steam but what about other DRMs?

A: Yes it works just fine because Windows 10 recognizes it as a wireless controller. It may not have the exact mapping of the controller but you can always change that.

Q: Does the Bluetooth USB stick only pair with one controller?

A: Yes, you would need an additional USB dongle for each controller you want to connect. I've read of people who've had 3-4 connected to a single PC.

Q: Is this controller compatible with SteamOS / Linux?

A: Yes.

Q: Can you use this on an Xbox One?

A: nope. Just PS4 and PC.

Q: How do you charge this product? Does it need to be on to charge?

A: You can charge with micro usb cable. No.

Q: Can you create a LAN party using this along with the PS4.

A: I do not know about LAN party unless you have multiple PS4s on the LAN. However, if you are playing games that allow side-by-side multiplayer then extra controllers definitely come in handy. If you are talking about using this with a PC and a PS4 on the same LAN, I guess it would depend on the game. I am not sure of which games allow cross-platform multiplayer like that though.

Q: I was wondering if I could use this as a wireless controller for my windows PC to play certain games downloaded on my PC without using PlayStation in any way.

A: Yes. You may need ds4->xinput emulator for some games not compatible with the controller out the box

Amazing deal
This is a great deal for what is included. I purchased this expecting the worse as the price was too good to be true, expecting that the controller may not work with my PlayStation 4 console and would only work with the wireless game pad reciever on a computer, or that the controller was the old DualShock 4 model (CUH-ZCT1) but was surprised to find out it works perfectly fine and that it does in fact come with the brand new DualShock 4 controller (CUH-ZCT2). Controller works perfectly fine wired and wireless with the PlayStation 4 console and as expected, is a brand new controller and not a pre-owned one. Unfortunately though this did not come with the controllers charging USB cable but for this deal it's not a huge problem and anyone that doesn't already own one can buy one or simply use an Android phone charger. But I would definitely recommend this product as it's a great deal overall.

Excellent Controller Setup
I bought this kit to play games on my laptop. Since I am mainly playing sort of first person games and FIFA, I am used to playing on the PS4 and not as much with a keyboard and mouse. Overall I got this working great on my laptop and have not had any trouble with my Steam games. I also installed DS4windows to ensure I could play with games that sometimes don't support the PS4 controller.
