Great Feel/Customization, Minor Connectivity Issue

The PowerA FUSION Pro Wireless Controller for Xbox Series X|S is a seriously solid option for gamers who want pro-level customization without breaking the bank. The build quality is excellent, the buttons and sticks feel responsive, and the Lumectra lighting adds a really nice visual flair without being over the top. The swappable components and back paddles are well thought out, giving you options for comfort and play style.
That said, it does have a couple of drawbacks. Occasionally, the controller will drop its connection on my Xbox, which can be frustrating during longer sessions. Also, since it’s not an official Microsoft controller, it won’t power on the console, which is a small thing, but worth knowing.
Overall, it's a great controller with pro-level features at a more approachable price—just be aware of the minor quirks.

This controller is near perfect for gaming. I use it on my Xbox Series X and its a great pro controller
Pros - weight. While not as weighty as the Xbox Elite controller, this controller has a nice sturdy weight that makes it extra comfortable to hold
Buttons and sticks - everything feels so smooth when using the controller
Low latency - when using the wireless dongle, it works perfectly on the Series X
Size - slightly bigger and thicker than the standard Xbox controller makes this pro controller great for long term use and comfort
Cons - battery life - I get around 10-15 hours of long term use from the controller which is significantly shorter than the Elite series 2 40+ hour battery life before I need to charge it

Good controller. Have had this controller for a few months now. Had to returnn the original do to the button on the back of the remote broke and would stick. The buttons are very plastic and have loud clicks. Those are the cons. Really like the user friendliness of this remote light weight compared to other scuff type controllers the rgb lights being customizable is a plus and i have had zero stick drift which every other controller I had this problem. Would definitely purxhase this controller again

Have used this controller for several months before leaving this review and my biggest issues with this product is the connectivity and battery life. The controller LOVES to randomly disconnect and takes about 15-20 seconds to reconnect and the battery life is really only about 8 hours MAX. For a $150 controller your better off with other options.

Great controller by PowerA
A small but great feature is the adjustable thumbstick height. You can adjust them from small to medium height to large height.
Four back buttons for those who use, a charger and a case all come in the package and it does have the hall effect sticks. Id recommend to any controller head like myself or to anyone looking to buy a new or first time "Pro" controller.
The RBG is also easy to turn off but it does not explain that in the box. You have to press both the Select and Start button at the same time.
The Xbox now has the PowerA app where you can customize the RGB colors of the controller as well and the app is very easy to use.
Trigger locks are ok but not too much of a difference so keep that in mind if you are more of an FPS only player.

I love this controller, zero stick drift and it is so easy to use, from programming the buttons to adjusting the height of the analog sticks. Plus it looks really cool. Best controller i have ever bought.

Wonderful design & quality. LEDs drain battery fast to the point where charging is needed constantly tho thus leading to some issues connecting with the USB fob. The magnetic charger stopped working after about 1 1/2 months and now controller won’t connect at all.

Really solid controller. The feel is premium, buttons are crisp, and the Lumectra lighting gives it a cool look without being over the top. I just wish it was easier to change up the faceplate or overall design. Other than that, it performs great and feels solid in hand.

Bought it in February this year and have no regrets. The ghost RGB is a nice touch for anyone wanting a custom look whenever they feel in the mood and if thats not for you just keep it off and you have the sleek black look. Response is fantastic in wireless and better wired in. The custom trigger stops and joystick height is great for your own custom feel. Only complaint is the 2.5ghz band sometimes gets confused with my wireless mouse and loses connection, but my solution is just not have it in the way between controller and receiver. If you dont have that obstacle then even better.

Beautiful colors and comfortable joysticks. Very light and very smooth with 3 different height levels to choose from. 4 buttons in the back make this controller the full package. One of the best controllers I've played with.

I like the different color and layered options (the reason why I purchased this) however the battery definitely does not last for long periods of time (any time longer than 4hrs). Another pro is the ability to adjust the sensitivity, etc. To adjust those settings, you have to make sure you have downloaded their app on your console. Also, there is not a way to find out whether or not the controller is updated. It is not identified in the app or on the console. Not sure if it was even worth the cost.

This is a very nice controller. It has been my everyday since I purchased it and I'm overall happy with its performance. The sticks are great, very responsive and I love that I don't need to swap out any physical parts to adjust the stick heights. The colors look great even if they're sometimes distracting ( I wish you could make them a little bit dimmer ) and I appreciate that you can turn the backlighting off completely if you want to. My only wish is that you could change the colors while it's charging and that when it is fully charged the backlighting would turn off. The battery life has been exceptional for me as well. I'd buy this controller again and I'd recommend it to a friend as well!

It’s a good controller, but I really don’t like the colors constantly coming on. You have to hit the start and select button every time you take it off the charger or turn it on.

Controller itself is nice, but the Open Box - Excellent model I purchased was missing the wireless dongle. That's a big deal because these proprietary dongles are not replaceable, and this controller is "Wired Only" on Xbox without the dongle.
Not the first time "Open Box - Excellent " turned out to be "Open Box - Fail." Be mindful of return deadline if you choose to roll the dice w Open Box products from BB.
