    • Solid Brand with Consistent Quality
Color: Mist
I like PowerA controllers, and I've owned several. They work great and feel good. I can definitely recommend them. *BUT* there is 1 big caveat I need to call out: Longevity. I'm not saying these fall apart and you should avoid them, but I have had consistent failures after about 18 months of use (which again, is maybe an ok life span, since they get used a lot). The most common mode of failure is a stuck button (almost always the A button, since it gets pressed the most in a lot of games, but I've also had it with X or B). It doesn't completely break your game, but if you need to double jump, for instance, and the button won't pop back up for half a second, that's a problem. Worse still, it indicates that button will die completely. They get to the point where you have to pry the buttons back up because they won't pop up. If you have multiple controllers, you can swap out some membrane and fix things, but it is a bit irritating to do. The second most common mode of failure is stick drift. This happens on every brand of controller I've had since the Nintendo 64, so it isn't unique to PowerA, and again the life-span for me seems to be about 18 months before something fails, so it's still a decent price. While you can take the controller apart and replace a stick to fix drift, it isn't as easy a fix as a button membrane, and the replacement parts are a little more costly, so it usually isn't worth the effort for a novice. Ok, so those last 2 paragraphs might sound disparaging, but keep in mind that: - I am still actively replacing controllers with this brand of controller because it's been better than other brands and lasted longer than other brands - I recommend this controller to people - I'm rating it 4 stars, which isn't bad - I love the feel of the buttons and triggers, so the build quality is excellent (whereas a lot of controllers have mushy buttons to begin with) ... show more

    • Great color, functionality, and comfort. Questionable quality and longevity.

Review Image by M. Lam M. Lam
My official Xbox One controller lasted me about 4 years, then developed a bad drift issue. I tried giving the internals a deep clean, but no luck. In the market for a replacement, at first I looked at controllers with Hall Effect sensors, which are supposedly immune to stick drift caused by potentiometer wear. Unfortunately, the most popular models I could find run about $70 and have mixed reviews. A lot of complaints about the feel of the buttons being stiffer than official controllers. It sounded like they were still making periodic revisions, so I didn't want to drop $70 until they get their build quality down. Looking at cheaper alternatives, a few friends recommended this PowerA controller. One of them swore by it, while a few others said they were good controllers but had short lifespans. Amazon reviews seemed to say the same. People like it, but in some cases they don't last very long. That said, the particular one I bought only cost $26 on Amazon, so I figured I would give it a shot, hoping it lasts long enough until a quality Hall Effect controller is available. Fast forward, I got my controller on March 23rd. At the time of this writting, it's now June 18th, so I've had it just slightly under 3 months now. Out of the box, the controller seemed great. Yes, it's wired, but for $26 it has a similar feel to the official Xbox controllers. The controller as a whole feels right in terms of form factor and grip, and the joysticks and buttons have a good tactile feel. It has two extra buttons on the back side that can be easily programmed to act like any of the main buttons, which is pretty nice to have. Compared to the official Xbox One controller, there are exposed screw holes on the back side, but they're cleverly positioned so that I never feel them while properly holding the controller. If the controller lasts more than a year without issues, I'd be pretty happy with it. Unfortunately, the controller has developed two problems with it. First off, the D-pad sometimes double-fires when I press on the right direction. I kind of suspect it was always like this out of the box and I just didn't notice it. Most of the games I was playing don't make heavy use of the D-pad. However it became pretty obvious when I started playing a game that made use of the D-pad for menu navigation. For the games I'm playing it's not a huge problem so long as I'm paying attention, but still a bit annoying. The second problem is that I've noticed the paint finish on the D-pad is ready starting to wear off. I've attached a picture where you can see the discoloration caused by the finish wearing off. So far it doesn't really change how the controller feels, but kind of disappointing to be happening already with less than 3 months of use. For the price, I'm still happy with the purchase thus far. I guess it's true you pay for what you get, and for only $26, as long as it lasts another 9 months before developing any other issues that require a replacement, I'll consider it money well spent. ... show more

    • Good, but don't expect it to last long unless you're extra careful with it
Color: Black
I'm a Division 1/Elite division FIFA player both on Xbox and PC, so naturally I use a Xbox controller a LOT for FIFA. Take my review however you want to....but for a product that is designed for longevity, as most XBOX controllers are known for, for some reason after heavy use both the LB1 and RB1 and left trigger on this controller started to noticeably get worse over time, to the point that after a gaming session around May this year the RB1 stayed pressed down permanently, and I know how to open and fix this issue myself, and even then after opening the controller and trying to manually fix the pressed down button, it still wasn't working properly... I am no means a player who breaks controllers or throws his controllers, so this outcome came exclusively from playing actively 3-4 hours a day with this controller from like September 2022 up until May 2023 when most of the aforementioned buttons started to give out... so take that however you want. If you're not a sweatlord like me playing a game that requires a lot of input, flicks and ocasional button mashing, this controller will serve it's purpose for you in the long run. But if you play intensive games that require a lot of usage from your controller, eventually, this guy sort of gives out within a year or half a year or so... maybe look for a literal XBOX controller bought directly from Microsoft...I bought one around April this year and it looks good as new, while this PowerA after a few months had noticeable wear and tear... It's a good budget Xbox controller, just be aware it may not last a whole year or a bit less, depending on your usage, but it IS serviceable and usable. This review in no shape or form is to say that it's BAD, just be aware that it might not last a whole year...or it can if you're very careful with it and don't play sweaty games like me lmao ... show more
