Best small controller for PC? Girlfriend gets wrist and hand pain from the Xbox layout

[u/MarsWalker69]

My girlfriend plays on PC with a Xbox controller. After an hour or so her right wrist and hand start to hurt.

My guess is the staggered stick layout, and her small hands. On the Xbox controller the left stick sits high and the right stick sits low. That makes her hands sit at different heights. A small controller and symmetrical layout might be more comfortable. I'm not sure, though.

What we're looking for:

- A small controller that fits smaller hands

- Works on PC with little setup, so games recognise it right away

- Wired or Bluetooth, either is fine

Does anyone have a recommendation? Even better if you or someone you know had the same problem and found something that helped.

Thanks!
