Wired vs Wireless Peripherals

I maybe wrong but with modern controllers like the Xbox one and ps4 controllers, they are only wireless. You can get a USB charge cable but they only charge the controller and the device still uses wireless to communicate.

I've got an xbox one controller for my pc, and it's wired.
 
Xbox one? really? Didn't you have to buy the special pc dongle?

The dongle as far as i know is required for the wireless xbox 360 controller (wired ones worked just plugging in).

I purchased the pc xbox one controller, and all i believe is different from a regular controller is it comes with an extra long usb cable to connect it with. My dog pulled it off my desk and the cable connector broke, so now I'm using a regular usb cable (my phones charger cable) and it's working fine. So nothing special about the cable itself.
