The Best Wired Controllers in 2023

Wired controllers, while not as popular as wireless controllers, surprisingly offer many advantages to games that have become more clear in recent years. The reasons boil down to 2 primary factors: Price and Functionality. Wired controllers tend to be cheaper and have fewer compatibility issues because they discount the need for a wireless adapter or connectivity. They also happen to offer invariably better input latency and do not have to deal with interference that some controllers might have to thanks to overcrowded transmission bands.
