It’s nice but paddles are bad quality. The stock tension in the analogs feels different than a default controller there’s less stick drift.

Original wireless console controller began having issues with intermittent disconnects, analog drift and buttons sticking. I pick up the Power A solely due to it was the only controller in stock at my local store. Initially I was somewhat frustrated as the cost was more than a standard controller and I was concerned with limited mobility of a wired controller. I soon realized this was the best controller I have ever owned!!! I have always wanted an Elite Series controller but the price and frugality did not agree. The Power A is a great compromise! The paddles, ability to change analog sticks and custom button mapping are great!! The only disappointment is it has not elevated my gaming skills to that of any of the famous streamers......

A good solid built controller. It has some weight to it. I would say it's a better quality built controller than the xbox elite plus it's cheaper. My only con is that it is wired.

Build quality is ok and on par with other Microsoft products. 4 stars mostly because this is the cheapest paddled controller with Xbox support. The quick mapping for the paddles is nice. The main downsides are that it is wired and that it doesn't allow full controller profile customization in the accessories app. you can change which buttons do what, but there is no stick acceleration customization and other nice features that you would see on the elite controllers.

Brought this as a gift for my nieces and nephews. I originally bought myself one and really liked the build quality. The buttons look and feel great. You have the option of switching out the control sticks that come in the bundle to suit your play style. The buttons respond fast when pressed and the addition of adding the paddles in the back take your gaming to the next level. The fact that its wired makes buying batteries a thing of the past. Very happy with my purchase and would recommend it for anyone who wants to have an edge on the competition.

This is the best party pro type controller I've ever used. After a Nacon and a Scuf for PS4, this is hands down the best. The finish feels nice and grippy, the rear paddles are responsive, and it has a nice weight to it, which is something I prefer - the controller feels sturdy. The usb has a lockng mechanism to hold it in the controller, and the cable is braided and 10' long. Lastly, the thumb grips for the analog sticks do fit xbox Kontrol Freeks. This is a great controller.

If wired doesn't bother you, this is an excellent choice for players who require paddles. I've purchased an Elite Series 2 for more than double the price and it came with stick drift right out of the box. This controller has worked perfectly since day 1. It even comes with a carrying case and swappable thumb sticks. The paddles do feel cheap and the D-pad is more mushy versus the Elite's clicky feel. But for $70, you cant beat the value! Assigning the paddles are very easy to do. I would highly recommend this controller!

I'm legitimately shocked at the quality and workmanship on display here. Solid build with buttons, thumbsticks and paddles that rival (and in some cases surpass) the quality of those found on the elite controller at HALF the price. Top it off with an extra set of extended thumbsticks, 4 removable paddles and a luxurious case for storage and you're looking at a viable contender for best controller available for pc/xb1. The controller is wired ONLY however (by way of a lengthy removable braided USB cable), so be aware of that if that's an issue for you. Highly recommended!!!

Overall this controller is really nice and feels really good in your hands when playing. Just a feeling of smoothness and comes with two analogs if you wish to change the height of how they reach your thumbs. Wouldn’t say you can compare this controller to the newest of Xbox one X elite controller but it sure does help with the paddles just like it! A scuff controller for a reasonable price. Comes wired of course and the length of the wire is long so you can play at a distance if needed. Saves money with batteries and would definitely recommend.

This has been a very smooth action controller and has endured daily use for almost a year sometimes for more than 10 hours a day. Comfortable in hand, but heavier than I'm used to. break away cord is strong and convenient. The buttons are now sticking and the drifting is occuring but that just started on the 10'th month of pretty consistant usage.

Great controller. Feels exactly like the oem controller. Just a little bit heavier. The back paddles are metal which is nice knowing they didn’t go cheap. Convinced 2 of my friends to go ahead and purchase it. They are happy with it as well. I would recommend getting the extended warranty as my first controller had an issue with the left stick after a year or so.

Well made. Durable. Stays connected. 4 Paddles that stay in and are magneticaly connected that are easy to take out and put in. Have had it for about 2.5 months and none of them have broke. Its the only paddle controller i've ever tried so I don't have much to go off but I normally play ps4 dual shock so im not used to xbox controller but all in all id say its a good controller. All paddles are "mappable" in games I play like halo 5 gaurdians. Looks pretty cool imo. Yeah

Excellent alternative to the Xbox Elite 2 controller. The controller has a fantastic matte feel with a perfect balance of size and weight. All buttons are extremely responsive and easy to access. I love the customizable paddles which definitely come in handy for certain games like CoD warzone (ex. you can map a paddle to 'Y' so you can apply armor while moving/aiming). Would recommend this controller to anyone looking for a premium wired controller with extra buttons and features at a fraction of the Elite 2 controller cost!

I'm assuming it also works great for the XBox, but I've only used it on the PC. The only issue that I've seen is that I can't seem to assign a paddle to up on the d-pad without it getting confused sometimes. My other concern is potentially losing the paddles, but it hasn't happened yet.
From what I hear, the XBox Elite 2 Controller is really nice, but this is a cheaper entry to find out if you want the paddles.

So pleased with this controller. The quality of the controller would give the impression of being $100 more expensive. I love the weight of it. Definitely feels dense but not overwhelmingly so. My ONLY complaint is every once in awhile when I’m playing I will get a few hiccups in terms of very slight input lag but for the most part I rock out with this controller in COD: warzone. The cord is very long which is also nice. The carrying case and presentation were above expectation as well

I’m going to give a 3 star review only because I love the 4 paddles for FPS it’s a great feature to have when needing them fast response shots and the grip is good for a non slip grip. The only thing I didn’t like was the back paddles plastic that holds them down the edges are a cheap plastic that cracked after a month of purchasing them.

I am writing this review with my expectations set accordingly. The PowerA Fusion wants to play in the big leagues with more expensive controllers from major brands. Like the the XBOX Elite, or Razer Wolverine series, or other. For all out feature set , this comes up just a little short, but in some instances this controller costs half as much.
So, now that we got that out of the way, here is my honest review. I have been gaming for more years than I can count. I am not the most dedicated gamer, but I have always had some form of gaming system since I was a child. BTW, my first setup was a Coleco Vision hooked to B&W TV. Mostly because we were poor, Atari was out at the time. Anyway I have used most controllers at one point over the years.
This controller is solidly built(when fully assembled), buttons and sticks are solid, triggers are a little on the light side, overall nice feel. The triggers on the back are nice once you get use to their placement, extremely easy to map on the fly. In fact I tend to remap them multiple times over the course of a single game. EVERYTHING JUST WORKS.
Now the small downsides of the cheaper cost. When changing sticks, and trying to install new one, it can feel like you are going to snap it off. Stick goes on too hard, and without faceplate, the assembly move too freely. Now, you won't break it, VERY STURDY, but still unsettling. but I snapped one of the green tension rings first time installing. Now only have one green. Other small nitpick is the controller can get bound up in you give too many inputs too fast.
But for the money, this is probably the best XBOX or PC controller I know of. You won't be disappointed.
P.S. The triggers are very easy to knock off and lose.

I’ve had mine over a year still my daily player 4 extra programmable buttons on the back that can be removed at a push of a button it’s kinda weird popping them back in if they pop out. Very easy to lose them as well. But overall I give it 5 stars if you aren’t a angry video game player you will love this if your looking for a extra professional gameplay
