Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great control. Easy to set up and even add any button you want to the back paddle buttons. Read the instructions lol wire also clips to the controller so it doesn’t just unplug

I bought this exclusively for PC gaming, and so far it's been great! Comfortable grip, responsive when playing, and I love the color customization options.

I was super skeptical about this PowerA-Spectra and was just positive that it was going to be just a knockoff piece of junk... IT'S NOT! I was so surprised that it is a quality piece of equipment. I have been using this controller nonstop since I received my testing model, and I am starting to love it enough to keep it as my daily driver. The controller was plug and play on my XBOX, XBOX series X, and PC. Setting up the RGB and button mapping did take a couple of minutes to digest the instructions and successfully achieve. But I did and now I can easily change color schemes and map buttons quickly between game changes. I find myself playing with the color schemes like all the time, like a nervous twitch. Just when I have settled on one pattern, I switch to another. The ease of use is my enemy here, jk but for real. I think I was most impressed in the quality of the build. Again, I was not giving the controller any precredit so the fact that it feels as well built as a normal XBOX controller is actually POG. The sticks are tight & the three tier trigger stops feel quicker than my Elite. These two factors alone have definitely contributed to a few cqc engagements on WZ that I have won and for that matter a few snipes that I normally would not have won or have hit. The paddles are perfectly placed underneath for my hands (I am 6'2") and very responsive when pressed. A couple of gripes or at least things you should keep in mind before buying. It is not wireless, and the cable is a specially designed 10' cord. You cannot just plug in any micro-USB because of the ferrite core on the cable. This is more of a pro/con, but the lack of a battery pack keeps the weight down and does not allow the possibility to go wireless, so you must be within 10' of the consoles. I understand this device is meant for the Xbox, but I played with it on the PC a ton. The first night on PC, I did think I felt input lag here and there, but I have not experienced that since (?). Finally, the breathing effect for the RGB. You can make so many distinct color patterns but only get two display options, breathing or solid. I do really enjoy the mute indicator being so well lit up. Now I want to be perfectly clear, I am still skeptical and wonder how long the controller will last in the long run. Nonetheless, my mind has been forever changed about the “Generic” aspect of the PowerA brand as opposed to the original Xbox branded goods. My Elite (series 1) is about three years old now and still feels and plays quite well. But the Elite was over $200. The PowerA - Spectra is rivaling my Elite at less than a quarter of that price. My thoughts here are that this is a solid purchase for anyone since the performance is extremely competitive and it lights up. I mean no brainer :P

Great wired controller. I love rgb lights and the responsive thumbsticks. This is a great budget controller for anyone that wants to be competitive.

Excellent product, I needed a new controller and was skeptical about a wired one, but it is the best controller i own

Solid controller for the price, cord is long and will not pull out unexpectedly. Don’t think you will find a better controller at this price

This controller is better than the standard one with the Xbox. I prefer wired controllers and this one exceeds expectations

Bought one online, one of the buttons did not work straight out of the box. Exchanged it at a local store. Now two of the buttons don't work straight out of the box. These controllers are complete garbage.

Useful , came in handy as a replacement controller
