I've had studfinders like yours and had the the same issues. I recently bought this one and it works really well. Also lights up multiple lines, which makes it easy to find the center.

Yeah they do have smaller cheaper ones that work the same like this.

Plenty big enough to fully cover a stud. Actually I don't know why the longer ones need to be so long.
Franklin sensors are my personal preference.
Just hold the button and slide across the wall.
No other stud finder works as reliably or are as easy to use.

Honestly I've tried a bunch of different stud finders with bad results like you indicated. I bought this one https://www.amazon.com/ProSensor-T6-Professional-Stud-Finder/dp/B071LF2BRY a few years back and have never missed a stud for anchoring or cutting in new electrical boxes.
The magnet method works good as well. My pops used to use it with a little device like this one https://www.amazon.com/Pack-Stanley-47-400-Magnetic-Finder/dp/B002YCSIJC
