How's the latency on BT?

I've always avoided using it because of the horror story from early models, but I might pick up a used PS4 controller for PC gaming if BT works well.

Latency is fine, I don’t use the Xbox controllers with Linux for the reasons I mentioned but I do use them in BT mode with the Steam Link. Never had any problems with input lag. PS4 controllers are BT only and absolutely no problems with those with either PS4 or Linux. In terms of versatility and support the PS4 controllers are my favorite, but I slightly prefer the ergonomics of the Xbox One S controller.
