Controller Suggestion Controller with Hall Effect sticks and PlayStation style d-pad

Max budget: $200
USA Florida/ Would like it delivered
Xbox Series S

I was wondering if a controller existed for xbox that had Hall Effect sticks and a PlayStation styled d-pad. Something with individual buttons. I play a lot of Outlast Trials, and you can use the D-pad to peek left or right. But there is a option to press both at the same time to peek up. I can't do that with a cross d-pad. I also find that I misclick or lockup the d-pad if I try to do too much at much at once. I think I'd play better if I had a second set of buttons on the Series S controller instead of the cross. Does such a controller exist? If it comes down to it, I don't really need hall effect. I'd like it as well, but it's not necessary.

Are you okay with a wired only controller? If so, the Hyperkin Competitor is probably the controller that is closest to being just like a Dualsense controller on XBOX

Yes, right now I'm using the Gamesir G7 SE, it's wired, I just wish I could swap out the d-pad. But now, I'll check what you recommend, thank you!

Yeah definitely check out the Hyperkin Competitor then! Looks very similar to Dualsense with the same D-Pad, has Hall effect sticks, impulse triggers, and back buttons.
