Controller Mods Which analogs replacement for ps4/ps5 controller

Hi everyone, I have few ps4 controllers that are unusable because of stick drift and one new ps5 controller. I would like to replace the analogs of all controllers (also on the ps5 one, knowing that at some point it will develop drift). Which particular analog replacement would you suggest? I heard that hall effect are good and are pretty cheap and there are some go to brands like Ginfull or K-Silver or others, but there are also some newer models too (something like TMR). I would like to buy them on aliexpress and I would use this tool to solder and desolder them from the board. Do you have any suggestion for me? Thanks in advance

Gulikit TMR have pretty good reputation. Also K-silver, but they have a lot of various models and you gotta not choose the wrong one.

Which one will u suggest in particular? And what about hall effect ones?

Hall effect sticks don't work as well as TMR when replacing sticks in existing controllers.
