Weird. My ranking is exactly opposite of the OP. XB Series is best, followed by Dual Sense (too bulky), then the Switch Pro bringing up the rear. The Pro feels like it should be a $40 third-party accessory, not the premier OEM product.

That said, I mostly play Switch with a $20 controller I bought on Amazon. I intended it to be a secindary controller for co-op play with my son, but it has become my favorite. I'll post a link later if anyone is interested. I prefer it to the Pro in all respects except rumble. It does not have the quality haptic feedback that you'd like from a Switch controller. It seems to just have basic rumble.

If we want to talk battery, my ranking goes Pro, XB, Dual Sense.  IMO, the battery life of the DualSense is not even close to reasonable for what should be a quality product in 2023.  It needs at least double the life, and even then it wouldn't be anywhere close to the Pro.  It is almost a tie between Pro and XB though, cuz swappable batteries are superior unless the internal battery life is phenomenal.  I have had to install a USB-C cable through my couch cuz I have to plug my DualSense so often.....
