I noticed the difference over Hall Effect Pro controllers such as the 8BitDo Ultimate ($70), and I was able to pull off moves in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate that I have only dreamed of before.

The best Hall effect controller we've tested to date is the Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra, and one of those will set you back $200, although it does come with a fancy built-in colour screen.
