Not US version but works fine
At first I though it was US edtion from privious posted picture. But when I received the adapter I found it is a EUR version. I feel a little uncomfortable. I tried connected the adapter with my dualshock 4 gamepad, and it works fine. So it seems you don't need to worry about the version.

UPDATED REVIEW:
A while ago, steam updated their client with full support of the Dualshock controller. Now, I use this on my Mac when I do Steam -In-home- Streaming on top of Remote Play (from anywhere there is an internet connection)!

A fine example of a blunder turned amazing! I would now recommend this to those who use their computers/laptops to stream their games with Steam or Remote Play (these the apps I use exclusively).

Also works with Steam Link, fyi.

ORIGINAL REVIEW FOLLOWS:

2 STARS!

False info. I've covered the false marketing for this product and to clarify it is the LACK of clear information that this item was received poorly.

It connects your dualshock4 to your mac or pc ONLY if you are using PSNOW app or remote play. Otherwise, it is not the equivalent of the XBONE Adaptor at all.

I followed this product since Sony announced it. I've posted on my blog about it as well. The initial announcement does not clearly state that this item does not connect your dualshock4 to your computers unless running PS apps. The listings on retailers fail to mention that, as well. Only on the final packaging did it clearly state its real purpose.

Watch out!

5.0 out of 5 stars PERFECTLY as advertised.

Works exactly AS ADVERTISED. The 1 star reviews I'm seeing on this thing aren't fair at all. No, thus far it doesnt allow for the DS4 to be used wirelessly with other functions. Well guess what, Sony never said it would. The listing and packaging very clearly state that this is for Remote Play on Mac and PC, and Playstation Now on PC. And for that, it does precisely what it's supposed to do and was super easy to setup. I couldn't have asked for more.

I wouldn't give a PS4 a 1 star review because it doesnt play Xbox One games. I wouldn't give a toaster a 1 star review if it didn't also function as a blender.

But unfortunately, just another case of complaining man children that give other gamers a bad name.

Soon enough there will be 3rd party workarounds to getting these controllers working wirelessly. In fact, I thought you could already use a DS4 as a generic bluetooth device. But either way, it's not Sony's responsibility to let you play your Steam games wirelessly with a DS4.

As advertised. Works great.

It only works with PS Now and remote play games. If you were expecting to use this with PC games, even the ones that have native DS4 support it just doesn't work.
You're still better off using a usb cable or dealing with the Bluetooth connectivity.
I've seen the positive reviews and have no clue how they are getting it to work, unless they are referring to PS Now and remote play with a PS4. I've seen most of the positive reviews mentioned emulators, so maybe that's it, but you still have to program each button with emulators.
But for Steam games, it's a No Go.
Or they are using a modification or other software to program it to work somehow. I use DS4 Windows to play PC games with a DS4 and when I use this dongle it doesn't work. When I turn DS4 Windows off, it still doesn't register.
It isn't a simple plug and play with PC games.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for Remote play and most games

This is exactly what I needed for my laptop. I use remote play A LOT, and this is the perfect solution for me. It allows me to use my controller wireless as well plug in my headphones directly into my controller port. It is a very nice and elegant solution.

Setting up the adapter was extremely easy, it required me to push in the adapter into pairing mode and put my controller into pair as well (Hold PS button and Share button). After I did that it paired seamlessly.

The best part is that it worked with steam as well. Most of the games I had it worked without any configuration which was a pleasant experience. If you REALLY want the best experience though, downloading a piece of Software called DS4Windows allows you to use the adapter with ABSOLUTELY every game out there. Out of the dozen games I tried only 1 game required me to turn on DS4Windows to work. This is the reason that I am rating it 4 stars. Upcoming games can support the dongle as well and even include the PS buttons for prompts (except the xbox ones that I have to deal with now).

However for my normal usage this is perfect. I travel a lot and use remote play very frequently and I am so happy that I got this.

NOTE: You can only pair 1 controller with this adapter. If you want to pair more than 1 at once, you'll need another adapter.

That being said, this thing works great. Easy to set up and I didn't notice any lag, the controller was just as responsive on my PC as it is on my PS4. A bit pricey, but worth it if you want to play your PC games with a great controller. If you have a Windows PC, you'll need DS4Windows so that your PC will detect the controller (since Windows is optimized for Xbox controllers).

5.0 out of 5 stars Near-perfect adapter
Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2017

Plug n play adapter, does everything advertised and will also work as an x-input device with a program called DS4 Windows. I used to use my controller wirelessly via normal bluetooth but it was very laggy and sometimes unplayable. This official adapter is flawless in terms of response time. Looks nice enough to leave plugged into the front of my PC for all to see, and is extremely easy to use. I just wish i could connect more than 1 controller!

PS, if you get input lag, it may be because you have too many wireless devices running in the same room. I have about 5 wireless devices in my basement and that does not affect this adapter. If that doesnt help then try plugging it into the front of yoyr PC, as the adapter will likely be aimed better at your controller
