Yes, I think I've seen that elsewhere too. Too bad because the ergonomics look good.

Gamesir gets my vote. It doesn't fold up like the Tessen, but the G8+ is Bluetooth, so it'll work on just about everything. Personally, I prefer the USB-C G8 since it pulls power from your phone (and supports passthrough charging) so you never have to worry about battery life on the controller.

The ROG Tessen lacks Hall Effect sticks, so it will succumb to stick drift eventually. I can't find any disassembly videos on it, so I'm not sure if you can (or would even want to) swap the sticks out for something better.

I grabbed a gamesir g8 galileo off Temu for $37 with tax, shipped from gamesir. Originally was selling for $49 but I put it in my cart then kept searching around Temu for other items until a popup offered me a discount if I bought it then.

It's a potentiometer joystick, so it will eventually have stick drift.
