It felt precise and the controller feels light. Once I started to game, it didn't feel like I was compromising anything. I had 0 complaints about playing this on a platformer.
For the regular price, it's a solid controller. For the sale price, it's an amazing controller.
D-pad is a little stiff, but ahead of even some of the console makers d-pad (Xbox 360 and early PlayStation especially). (Series S|X d-pad is easier on my hands, though not as good as Nintendo's). Overall ergonomics are comparable to the Series S|X controller.

I bought this controller to play some Steam games I recently bought, it works right out of the box, its comfortable, much better than playing with keyboard. I got it on sale, plus I had a reward so it was very cheap for me. But even at $20 its really worth it. Note: it does need to be plugged in with USB cable to work, the provided USB cable is 10ft long.

I’m returning my second one. For whatever reason, the keft trigger keeps going off during games, making me aim in with weapons. I checked with controller checker apps, and it shows that it stays on after trigger pull for about 1-4% activation. It’s a good controller, but this is the second controller that’s done this for this specific color. The lightning blue controller did not have this problem.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Power A makes great controllers imo. Ive had a few and i like there color options. Lets be honest with xbox controllers being 2 times or more expensive are they really worth the cost over these? Anywho. These are pretty good for daily use

Definitely worth the bread i dropped for it. The original price was like 40- 45 cash and i caught it for 20 cash. Can't beat that price but even at the regular price i like the controller.

the controller's design impresses. The contours fit snugly into your palms, ensuring comfort during extended gaming sessions. The textured grips offer excellent control, preventing slips even during intense gameplay. It's a controller designed not just for functionality but for the comfort of the player.
But it's not just about comfort – the Xbox Controller excels in performance too. The responsive buttons provide crisp feedback, allowing for precise inputs that are essential in competitive gaming. The analog sticks glide smoothly, offering a level of precision that enhances gameplay across genres, from first-person shooters to sports simulations.

I've been using them for more than a month now, and they feel on point.
(Might touch the under keys by mistake but won't affect if you haven't specifically bind them)
