You can check out the packaging of the accessory, which is available for preorder with this link on the retailer’s site, below this paragraph.As you can see, the Nyky Type Pad comes with a full QWERTY layout keyboard, including symbols and shortcuts (such as “.com”). Also featured is a mini-analog nub for pointer-style navigation.

The Type Pad connects to the PlayStation 4 using a Bluetooth connection. It should be compatible with applications and games that support Bluetooth keyboards. Even with the wireless connection, you need to connect the accessory to the DualShock 4 if you want to be able to recharge the built-in battery back at the same time as the PS4 controller (it will still require a standard the micro-USB cable). You can plug the pad using the port located at the bottom of the DualShock.

The product is expected to come out later this month in the North American region. You might want to take a look at it if you are looking for a more convenient way to type out messages, input texts on the web browser and more.
