Wireless on computer?

Hey guys, I haven't been on here for a while so I'm sorry if this is a repeat topic. Are we able to play wireless on a pc or laptop now? I'm asking because I'm considering buying an Xbox One control for my laptop if your can't yet. Thanks

@Jysoe77 : I'm able to play wireless with an Xbox 360 controller in conjunction with a Wireless Receiver for Windows, so I would imagine that Xbox One would be no different with a similar setup.

@Mad_Dog_Bravo I meant along the lines of, does the Stadia controller allow it yet. Thanks for your response though, I appreciate it

@Jysoe77
I misunderstood your post. Stadia controller wireless support for web was expected early 2020, the post kinda implied Q1 or early April but will just have to wait and see as I’ve seen no additional info recently.

Wireless on different devices was one of the bigger selling points Stadia had for me.

Some poor programmer must really fumbled the ball when we still not have it.

Like mad dog is writing they will release it "soon" or beyond , their statement from new year went like this

Gamers can expect more features coming to Stadia in Q1 and beyond. A key benefit of our platform is that we can add these features without any updates or downloads, and we’re starting to roll out the following over the next three months:

Support for 4k gaming on the Web
Add further Assistant functionality when playing on the Web
Support additional Android Phones
Wireless gameplay on the Web through the Stadia controller
