This is perhaps long overdue, but the PlayStation 4 is finally getting an officially licensed media remote. No longer will you have to make use of just the controller to navigate menus or options while watching films or streaming shows.

The PS4 media remote is coming from PDP. The company has not revealed too much about the remote aside from the fact that it will be out this October for $30 (USD). You can, if you so desire, pre-order the remote right now from either Amazon or GameStop.
The officially licensed Universal Media Remote for PlayStation 4 gives you complete control of all PS4 media playback via Bluetooth. Easily control up to 4 devices-PS4, Set Top Box, TV, and Audio Receiver-and enjoy direct access to the PS4 Home and Power buttons without a controller. Enjoy a convenient and hassle-free way to navigate and control your PlayStation 4 system from your couch.

The remote will require two AAA batteries to use, which should last you about six months.
