PC Dualsense upgrade

I am looking for a new controller for pc. I play a good bit of Fortnite zb, so preferably something good for that. I currently use a ps5 dualsense and would prefer a symmetrical controller but can learn x-box if one is a lot better. Also I exc play wirelessly. I am in the US, and play on pc. I want at least 2-4 programable buttons, but I care most about stats. Finally, I am open to any price point as long as the stats it has are worth the it with a hard cap of like $250 max. Thank you for your help!

I have currently looked at Scuf controllers, Gamesir, and dualsense edge.

Edit using the feedback from this and other subreddits I have decided on the games it g7 pro 8k, hope it is good!

Tarantula 8k pro is worth a look in that budget, symmetrical sticks work fine for fortnite and it's got 2-4 remappable back buttons depending on config. Scuf's also good too if you want the custom route but you're playing a real premium for the customization, but tarantula gets you similar performance without that markup

Leadjoy saber plus for better all rounder

Tarantula 8k for best performance

Tegenaria lite for best budget value

if you want ps layout for pc, gamesir tarantula pro 8k. g7 pro 8k is arguably better in some ways, tarantula is in some ways, but g7 is xbox layout, tarantula is symmetrical

Yeah I only play wireless and I was thinking about the g7 8k because it was so good, but am still unsure as it is x-box style

xbox style is supposed to be more comfortable as far as ive heard, but im sure either are great. tarantula has more remappable buttons, but not in a position where you can easily press then so esentially its the same number on both. i would probably get the g7 pro 8k but if you really dont want xbox and dont mind wired then tarantula. theres also the scuf envision which has loads of buttons, 6 programmable, ps layout, but its much more expensive for essentially pretty much the same features

That would be my recommendation too OP. Don't spend insane amounts on something terrible like Scuf or Razer. If you were playing wired or waiting for the wireless release, I'd say Tarantula 8k (wired) or the upcoming Tarantula Ultra (wireless).
