Stadia was heaven sent and it was sad to let it go. Today I started playing It Takes Two with my wife on the steam deck and using the Stadia controller brought back pleasant memories.

I liked their feel for sure. I probably wouldn't go out and buy any more from eBay or whatnot as I already have two, but they were solid and I definitely plan on updating mine.
Can't speak to their use after the Bluetooth update as I just found out about it, but they were responsive when I used them through stadia and work just as well, if not better, when wired to a computer.
As much as I dislike Google, they did handle this stadia wind down and shuttering pretty well.
Edit: The Bluetooth works just as well! These were my favorite controllers until the PS5 controllers came out (don't even own a PS5 but picked up a couple for my mobile gaming).
One thing I prefer about Dualsense over the stadia controller is that their buttons are really quiet. I still prefer the feel of the stadia controller, though, so for casual daytime gaming, I think these are gonna be my go to.
