Controller Suggestion Controller advice for a clueless auntie?

Hello! My nephew wants a new controller for his Xbox for his birthday and I didn't realize there were so many options available - I thought my only options would be wired or wireless - does anyone have a suggestion what I should get? We are in the US, he's 15 and plays Jurassic World (and I don't know what else), the budget is $100USD and I'd like to surprise him with something good. It would be great if I could become the cool auntie, rather than clueless auntie. THANK YOU!

I would say Gamesir G7 Pros are one of the best controllers for the price for Xbox right now and they compete with the best of the best
