Stadia controller review: a premium controller for under $20

Описание: Welcome to my first controller review! I’m excited to share my thoughts on the Stadia Controller, a first-party device that’s now incredibly affordable and packed with features. I hope this is the start of many more reviews to come, so let me know your feedback in the comments!
Before we dive in, I want to mention my Teflon tape analog stick mod for the Stadia Controller. It’s a simple tweak that improves stick smoothness and durability. Check out the tutorial video here:    • Teflon tape mod for analog sticks  
In this review, I’ll cover why the Stadia Controller is a standout choice in 2025. Here’s what makes it special:

The build quality is top-notch, as expected from a first-party device.
It features the best D-Pad of all time, perfect for precision in any game.
The USB-C port ensures modern connectivity for charging and wired play.
The symmetric stick layout is comfortable and intuitive for all types of games.
Compatibility is where the Stadia Controller truly shines. After the Bluetooth firmware upgrade, it works seamlessly with PC, iOS, and Android. Pair it with the 8BitDo USB Receiver 2, and it also supports the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2. This versatility makes it one of the most adaptable controllers available.
By the way, the game you see in the background is Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal (UYA), a classic that pairs perfectly with this controller.
If you’re looking for a high-quality, budget-friendly controller, the Stadia Controller is a fantastic choice. Let me know your thoughts in the comments, and stay tuned for more reviews!
