Review on ๐ŸŽฎ PowerA FUSION Pro Black Wired Controller for Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S - Gamepad, Wired Video Game Controller, Gaming Controller by Kyle Hong

Revainrating 4 out of 5

There is no drift! Components are better than standard MS controllers!

PROS: Great buttons, well made, easy to swap analog sticks, change trigger sensitivity. looks and feels comfortable and reliable, (wired) input with no keypress lag. Cool case! Bought at least 10-15 standard MiCroSoft XBOX controllers due to breakage (which caused drift) in 2 years of playing One S. I only play FIFA 20 and am somewhat competitive online. The durability of this stick (internal components) is great, it's played daily for 2-3 months with no drift issues! The last advantage is the cost. Other premium options are twice the price, so the cost of a premium/eSports controller is amazing! CONS: (I play FIFA 20, about 15-20 hours a week) Both sticks (the left one is used for movement) and the ring that is inserted into the faceplate and surrounds the joystick wear out after 2-3 months with the controller. Both parts are interchangeable/replaceable, but I wish the plastic on them was stiffer. The stick is worn all around where it meets the ring that surrounds it (thumb guard?) and the ring itself is so badly worn in several places that the stick almost sticks to it. Disadvantage number two is just an observation, doesn't concern me: the trigger housing isn't very strong and it's easy to damage the pivot point where the trigger parts connect to the housing. All in all a great controller, much better than the standard MS XBOX One controllers and much more durable. My (countless) stock MS controllers started showing analog drift after about 2-3 weeks of play, but 3 months on this controller still has no evidence of drift. Definitely worth it if you find the stock XBOX controllers are drifting too fast.

Pros
  • Very Good Price
Cons
  • Unreliable
