If you have an OLED, I highly recommend a dualsense controller over Xbox since it added bluetooth-to-wake. Dualsense has gyro, rechargeable, and better back button mods in my experience. Plus, if you use the Xbox adapter, you have to reinstall the driver's after every OS Update (although I believe there are some ways to get around this)

Xbox controllers added Bluetooth in their third generation. They're on gen like 5 or 6 now.

This is true! I always had issues with Xbox over Bluetooth though, so I went with the adapter route which worked well. Granted I haven't tried Xbox Bluetooth on steam deck, only a Windows PC. Does it work well?

Annoyingly well. If you turn on your Xbox controller accidentally, it'll power on the Steam Deck (same behavior as the discontinued Steam Link). Very handy for a lounge/bedroom setup though if you use your deck docked.

You can also hold down the Xbox button to see the shortcuts for things like the main menu, the QAM, taking screenshots

Wake-up over Bluetooth was a new feature for OLED
