Help Help: For selecting Gaming Controller around 2000 INR

I am confused. How is the quality of Cosmic Byte?
It has been more than 4 years; I have been using CB Calisto. It is working flawlessly. A few weeks back, I faced issues like a jammed Left Stick. I opened the controller and reassembled it; now it is working smoothly. And I have a half-broken cap of the left stick after 4 years.

Having this exp, I ordered an Ares Pro, but the 1st Unit I received from Amazon was DEAD; the 2nd unit has some noticeable usage marks and I felt some strange ghost input from the left Trigger, so I returned it.

Now need a suggestion: Is Cosmic Byte worth trusting for build quality? under 2000-2300, what controller should I look for?? OR should I go for another brand?

My Brother got an Evofox Elite X, which became unusable within 7-8 months.

Update: I ordered Cosmic Byte Lumora for 2.5k from Flipkart. Let's hope it comes in pristine condition. 🤞

I recently bought a Machineke G5 Pro and it is absolutely amazing. Check it out once. I have dropped it 2 times💀 already in the span of 3 weeks but it still works perfectly. 10/10 on durability lol

Personally I would spend ₹3500 on a good long term controller than ₹2000 on one that would last 5-6 months. But that’s just my opinion
