What is the difference in terms of gameplay between Hall effect and TMR joysticks? Games that I play are games like Call of duty, Destiny 2, Forza, GTA online etc. would I notice a actual difference in gameplay?

Is Hall Effect or TMR better for battery life?
Will Sony, Microsoft, or Nintendo adopt TMR sticks soon?
Does a 1000Hz polling rate actually matter for controller input?
I see more controllers now starting to use the tmr sticks. Is the buzz around hall effect starting to lose its grip and go to the tmr sticks?
To me personally, I was really tempted to buy a controller with hall effect but I kept finding these posts about them being a bit harder to aim with then potentiometer ones in fps games.
I saw people struggle with them not having a complete linear curve.
I saw posts where the hall effect sticks got lose and not centering properly. Getting stick drift. I know stick drift can be fixed with calibration but not when the sticks "springs" get loose. Right?
Anyways. Now it seems like more and more hype is going for these tmr sticks and I must say, I'm on the hype train, so far. It seems gamesir is using them in their upcoming pro controller. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Anyways. Supposedly these tmr sticks will use less power, be closer to potentiometer sticks in terms of aim and feel. Again! Correct me if I'm wrong.
This post is to make more sense to all of this. Where do you think this joystick war takes us? Which sticks will stick around, hrm, longterm? Maybe there's room for both? Some may be cheaper to produce so we'll always have all the three different ones for different reasons? 🙂
