Any good quality button controller for children(best if compatible with switch or PS5)? (lemmy.ca)

I bought a Hori pad for switch for my son(6yo almost 7), it was working fine but eventually the buttons feel kinda laggy/clunky to press compare to my other official controllers. It would still be 2~3 years until his hands can reach all buttons and triggers, watching him play Astro's Playroom and struggle with the controls is kinda painful as there are no "good" small controllers for PS5.

If anyone has a good replacement controller in mind please let me know. Best if it at least matches Dualshock 4/Swtich Pro controller's button quality. Thanks!

Thanks, I might look into the snes with handle type of controller(cause they look smaller) instead since he does need stick and triggers for rocket league. I just wish the buttons/sticks are as good as official controllers.

I have several of the SN30 Pro controllers, one Pro2 controller and one Ultimate Bluetooth controller and they’re quite good. I would say the sticks are of decent quality on the SN30/Pro2 models but not as good as the Ultimate Bluetooth controller, which I also have and would say is the best of the them all. The Ultimate is pretty small but feels nice, and the Bluetooth version has Hall effect sticks so they’re far less prone to drift. All in all, I’ve never had an issue with any of the controllers, and my daughter was able to comfortably use the SN30 models since she was 4, if that helps at all.
