The SteelSeries Stratus XL is a great controller that works on your Windows PC, Android phone, and Amazon Fire TV. SteelSeries basically took the best features from the DualShock and Xbox 360 controllers and combined them to create the Stratus XL. It connects via Bluetooth and plays for up to 40 hours on two AA batteries. It's perfectly weighted and has been designed to fit comfortably in your hands for marathon gaming sessions.

When you sit back down and hit the home button, it reconnects and you're ready to go again.

Sony's DualShock 4 Bluetooth Controller is a great option that's compatible with your Amazon Fire TV.

Plus, the size is 20% smaller than a regular-sized controller — portable and ideal for young gamers.

If you're on the go a lot, the PL-608 mini Bluetooth controller might be for you. At just 36mm x 75mm x 17mm it can easily slip into your bag or even your pocket while you're on the go.

Plus, when you connect this to your phone, you can use it as a remote controller for your camera shutter and more!
