Great controller just have a suggestion
I have limited mobility, and gaming helps me have fun. The Nano Controller works great for me! Please consider adding back paddles to make it even more accessible. Thank you, PowerA!

Do not purchase
Had this controller barely 3 months and the plug in port is going bad. Controller dies randomly very often and have tried other cables and nothing works. Extremely dissapointed

Great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It functions very well. There is no defect with it at all. The trigger button is very on point in my game. No noise at all and using it to drift is perfect.

Fantastic corded controller!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this wireless controller! It feels great in my hands and the controls are so responsive! The cord can sometimes be a little annoying but its worth it for a good controller (and no lagging)! I am definitely looking at getting another one.

Good just not long lasting
I bought one of these controllers from game stop about 4 months ago and it worked VERY well for the first 3 then the left stick got loosened and has TERRIBLE drift. It's cheap for a reason... I would not recommend, unless you know that you will need a replacement within the year.

Made my gaming experience even more enjoyable 🌊🎮
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been really impressed with this controller. The first thing that caught my eye was the Blue Wave design- it looks sleek and a bit more unique compared to the standart plain controllers. Once you start using it , it actually feels really comfortable in your hand. The grip is nice, the buttons are responsive and the analog sticks feel smooth while playing. One small downside js that it’s wired, so you don’t have the same freedom as a wireless controller. However the USB is quite long, so it gives you plenty of room to sit comfortably while playing without feeling restricted. Honestly it’s also good because I never have to worry about charging batteries or losing connection during a game. Overall, it’s solid controller that feels reliable, comfortable and fun to use. If you are looking for a good wired alternative to the official Xbox controller - especially with a cool design- this is definitely worth it!

Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product from Influenster and PowerA in exchange for my honest opinion. I absolutely love the color of this controller and feels comfortable in my hands. Also it has a cord so don't have to worry about batteries. Excellent performance. Highly recommend

Game controller
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Compliments of influenster for exchange of my honest review. The advantage wired controller for Xbox series x/s is a great controller. I received the color blue and the design is great. I like the functions of the controller. Everything works smoothly from the d pad to the joy sticks and the trigger buttons. There is no lag when it comes from the response of this controller either which gives you smooth gameplay.

Design and function is great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really love the design of this instead of just the standard white. Good price for a good quality controller. The pads move smoothly and no issues with grip or use. The weight is great and seems durable. The only reason it’s not five stars is because the cord could be longer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Never heard of this brand before so I was excited to try. Love the design on the controller. The buttons are smooth and I love that the cord is long enough to prevent someone from tripping.

Good budget option
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good ergonomic design. It has some nice features with the adjustable triggers and the extra buttons. Good budget option if you need an extra controller. It has a long cable which makes it comfortable to use, however I’d prefer if it was wireless.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pretty good. Not a modern take on a controller but is very sturdy, buttons don't stick and works with my steam deck. Love the color and response time of the buttons

Unique buttons
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Colors are beautiful, and the uniqueness of extra buttons on the back to program to whatever button you want to use as a quick button is interesting. Grip is decent, but the controller felt smaller somehow

Xbox Advantage Controller
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this new advantage Wores controller for Xbox. The blue wave color is bright and fun. Wired so you are connected with a cable and the durability of the D-pad buttons are outstanding. This allows my preference to be great when playing and no lag. I would recommend this to any gamer.
