Many appreciate the long cord and reliable performance, although some experienced issues with stick drift after a period of use. The vibrant color options and overall feel of the controller also received positive feedback. While generally well-received, potential buyers should be aware of the reported stick drift problem.

    It will work on a bind but is very cheap made and the sticks are very loose.

    My wireless xbox controller had bad drift so sent it back for warranty and ordered this one to use in the meantime. Great controller, have had no issues. I like the design and it is comfortable to hold. Works well.

    I’ve bought 3 of these controllers. The 2 consistent problems are stick drift and the Audio goes out after a month.

    Not buying this brand again, fell for the look and branding, I can't enjoy gaming with this controller, it takes the fun out of the game as the drift makes it unplayable.

    Problems within 10 days of usage

    Not a good experience with this controller. For the first ten days, the controller worked fine. However, after this it started having stick drift on the left stick. Contacted PowerA, told me to calibrate the controller; in which I did, and the problem still persisted. For the warranty claim, I needed to have the receipt, which unfortunately I lost the previous day I started having issues. Some bad timing, but fair enough, I wasn’t careful enough to claim the warranty. I decided to stick with it for a while and the problem persists on now both sticks. Not only that but the right stick now has some weird bug that, for example when aiming, moves very slow on some spots and fast on others while max pushing on it, making my aim very inconsistent and unenjoyable.
