Pro controller recommendation

Ebony Falcon

Hey, I’m on pc and I’m on my 4th Xbox elite series 2 controller now (3 were replacements) and I just brought a core which was ment to have better qc 

 

however the core I got has a slightly lumpy feeling left trigger and the lb doesn’t feel or sound right compared to the right one 

 

so I’m kinda done with the elites now, looking for recommendations

 

turtle beach stealth ultra looks cool, Hall effect sticks and all mechanical buttons 

any thoughts ?

im using a razer wolverine v2 and it love it other than it breaking every 4-6 months or so - cant expect too much from a 100 dollar controller nowadays i guess - thankfully amazon warranty got me covered! 

 

look at this beauty!

(nah its really good, the software is surprisingly functional and i need the extra buttons  - no wireless which is a big plus for me too)

understandably so... but in my experience most controllers don't last longer lol... from my experience,  the original xbox 360 controller "for pc" lasted 15+ years, one of my gazillion Dualshock 3 (a silver Japanese model funny enough) still lasts to this day and a white Dualshock 4 i bought like 3 years ago still works too... every other controller i had 6 months to a year tops! 

 

So maybe im not the best example after all, but i can still judge how good a controller is (Dualshock 3 is the GOAT imho) and well that 8bitdo looks good but i question how long a 50 bucks controller would last (probably around 3 months for me lol... hence warranty is a thing)

 

not trying to sway you in either direction,  just saying  - for me personally, im on my 3rd Razer Wolverine "v2" now, i do play a shit ton though tbf...!
