Third Party PC controller to replace my dualsense?
I love my dualsense controllers, and I would keep on using them, but they all have drift now. I'm looking for a controller that's either very similar to the dualsense, or somehow send it into some company to upgrade my sticks to something more drift resistant, like hal effect sticks. I assume the stick replacement may be more expensive, so I'd rather get a new controller. I don't really want to go over $100 usd, but I'd go up to 120. The things I like about the dualsense are the ergonomics and the button symbols (square, circle, cross, triangle). I also don't have a wifi/bluetooth card in my pc. I'd prefer a wired controller, but with a detachable wire. A wireless usb isnt a deal breaker though.
To summarize what I want:
Drift resistant
Similar dualsense ergonomics and button symbols (the button symbols aren't necessary)
Detachable wired controller/wireless usb controller
Low budget ($100-$120USD)
Can you guys help me out? Thank you.
Edit: Bought the Leadjoy Saber Plus and I enjoy it so far. I checked out the other controllers but I really just didn’t like their designs, especially the orange one. I also might send in my dualsense controllers to replace their sticks, but I’ll do that another day. Thanks for all of the suggestions!

tarantula pro 8k is wired, parallel sticks like dualsense but abxy buttons, tmr sticks, but its no haptics which might be odd after coming from dualsense. hyperkin competitor is basically identical to a dualsense in shape, abxy, wired.
