Customers are saying

Customers highly value the build quality, RGB lighting, and programmable back buttons of the Spectra Enhanced Wired Controller for Xbox Series X|S. Many appreciate the long cable and customizable color options, finding the controller comfortable to hold and enjoyable to use. However, some customers reported issues with stick drift and trigger malfunctions after relatively short periods of use. These issues detract from the otherwise positive user experience.

    Great controller. Easy setup and works great! Handled game play like a champ for my teen -- who can be a bit rough.

    The controller has a great weight to it, not cheap feeling. The lights are programmable individually by sections and fairly bright.

    It works for a little bit, not as long as normal controllers. Worth the warranty.

    Best controller. I’ve tried the elite, power a with the paddles, recon… as long as you’re okay with a cord, this is hands down the best controller I’ve ever had. It feels extremely durable, has everything you need to be competitive and is at a very reasonable price. If you’re trying to decide between this and another corded controller, I would recommend this one

    The controller works beautifully. The LED lights were a bit confusing to customize initially, but they’re a nice touch.

    This is a great option. I'm really impressed with PowerA controllers. I feel they are better than Microsoft controllers and way more affordable. The back paddles are very helpful and the lights are cool. My only complaint is the upper shoulder buttons can be finicky at times and need a little more pressure than normal.
