I’m looking for something quality without spending much more than EUR 50. I’m guessing the best way to go is a refurbished or second hand Playstation controller? (currently boycotting Microsoft). I appreciate any recommendations.

I see some good looking budget options but then read about occasional lag issues, stuck buttons or incompatibility with games. But these are designed for major consoles so maybe that’s all irrelevant when it comes to macOS compatibility. I’m totally green here. Thanks!

    I use a PS5 Dual Sense controller with my MacBook Pro. New they are $69, unsure how much they are in the EU. A used one may be within your price range.

    I never had a PS4, so I do not know the controller well but it is likely to be in your price range.

        I remember that initially pairing was a bit of a pain, not the actual pairing but getting it all to work. I unpaired and repaired a few times. It was nothing horrific. Definitely easier than getting some games to run on a Mac.
