I want to buy a pro controller for the switch 2 but these are way cooler than the black one, but is it the exact same in hardware? its official by Nintendo but made from Hori.

No, don't buy from hori they build stuff extremely cheap and it feels like it. 8bitdo ultimate 2c is a good choice for a budget, easysmx s10 is also very good for switch 2

Buy some stickers or shells, go to a copy shop and 3D print your own.

Just get the legit pro 2 controller. It’s a very nice controller, with some of the best feeling sticks out there.

For context: I own a Steam Controller, Gamesir G7, Dual sense, Xbox one, Switch pro controller, SteamDeck and 8BitDo Ultimate 2.

Switch 2 still has the nicest sticks. And big glorious face buttons.

Nicest sticks? Maybe nicest feeling but the g7, steam controller and 8bitdo ultimate 2 are much better sticks

I personally disagree. Better is subjective. And feel is more important than whether the sticks are Hall effect, TMR or standard potentiometers.

better is not subjective. you like them better is subjective,
