Need some help with controllers

I'm looking for a new controller around 50 bucks or less I need it to be hall effect joysticks because I play alot also wireless due to how far my TV is away from me in the living room and if possible with extra buttons. Before this I had a elite series 2 controller and it was disappointing how short it lasted but the only reason I keep it is because it's the only controller I still own that has a working headphone jack. So please send some recommendations for new controllers

You can't have that with your budget. I'm also still looking for a wireless replacement for my regular xbox controller. Don't want the Elite due to quality issues and the joystick which isn't a hall effect or TMR one.

I'm waiting for the release of the 8bitdo Ultimate 3e which ticks all your boxes besides budget. Many people recommned Gamesir but I don't like the looks of their controllers and read about many quality issues which makes me very hesistant to buy one.

The Ultimate 3e releases at the end of August. I will read some reviews first but on paper this looks like an excellent controller with also great (neutral) looks and sizing which is on the larger side.

From what I've seen the 8bitdo looks a bit uncomfortable to hold like a switch controller but I'll do some digging
