What are the best controllers for gaming?

DualShock 4.

Nothing offensive about the design, it just works. Buttons all work fine (quiet, just enough travel, comfortable to press). The controller shape lends itself perfectly for my medium sized hands and can comfortably use it for hours without fatigue. Its so light that it kinda just 'floats' between my fingertips and palms.

Good all rounder and can be used in most genres without issue. The only real drawback is the battery life.. which, frankly, isn't great to say the least.
