Question for long term controller users

Question for long term controller users

Hey. Recently I bought 8bitdo Ultimate Mobile Controller and its LB got broken in like 4 days and I wasn't even using that button much.

But in those 4 days I loved playing PSP, PS2 and Gamecube games on my phone. Now I'm looking for another gamepad but can't decide what to buy because every single gamepad has problems.

First, I thought of buying Gamesir X5s because I actually prefer using bluetooth. But I see that this one has so many problems with LT even out of the box. Some say disabling turbo fixes it, some say it doesn't.

Then I looked at G8+, since I still want a bluetooth gamepad. This one is overall great gamepad but a bit heavy because of the vibration motors which i don't care about. I also see that it has high latency and some people has disconnect problems.

Now, we are at X5 Lite. I love the fact its lightweight and cheaper. I hear so many good things about this thing. I'm not a big fan of non analog triggers but I can live with it. Biggest problem is people say its type c ribbon is getting broken. How common is this? I can accept using this thing for 1+ years but any less than that would leave bad taste. Type c controllers scare me in general.

Help a brother out, which controller should I buy? How long of a usage time I should expect from these?

I use android btw.
