Broken
Had the controller for 3 months now, at first it was great, about a week or two in it developed this issue with the cord that connects to the xbox where if it wasnt at a certain angle the controller disconnected, i played through it making sure my controller was a still as i could while i played, now today another issue is occuring where it just wont turn on. It first occured in the middle of me playing Cyberpunk 2077, my controller just turned off and wouldnt turn back on, when i hold down the middle custom button underneath the controller the xbox logo flashes rapidly and then stays glowing like the controller is connected but no button inputs work. I dont know if this issue is only happening to me but ive done nothing that could have caused these issues.

Thank you for contacting us. If the controller is not showing as a device on your PC, please try connecting it to a different USB port or using another cable, then restart your computer and ensure Windows is fully updated. If the controller still does not appear or work after these steps, the issue may be hardware-related, and we recommend contacting Support for further assistance.

My issue isn’t with this product it’s with target. Called pickup and online orders for over an hour regarding a question about my pickup and no one ever answered the phone!?

Eh its okay
If you play call of duty or battlefield this ain’t it but for other games like story games it’s cool but wouldn’t recommend this for games like call of duty and such the analogs feel like they have stick drift 😪

Harsh and Painful Triggers
The remote is not bad but won’t turn in xbox. Worst feature is the hard plastic triggers that can spring harshly, cause pain and callouses. I will be sanding down the triggers due to the pain and discomfort. But something else.

Thanks for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear the controller won’t turn on your Xbox and that the hard plastic triggers are causing discomfort. That’s not the experience we want for you. Kindly submit a request at https://www.powera.com/support/submit-case-request/ Thank you!

Can’t go wrong with Power A
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a big fan of Power A. I actually own their pro controller for my Nintendo switch and it’s great. This is no different, good build quality, responsive, and it doesn’t need batteries. The only reason it’s not 5 stars is because it’s a wired controller. I prefer wireless controllers than can be charged directly through USB-C. Which the switch pro controller I own has. If you want something on the cheaper end that delivers high end performance and the wire doesn’t bother you, by all means get it. You won’t be disappointed.

Long line
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received power A advantage plus wired control controller for Xbox from influencer in exchange of a honest review. This is a good remote control controller. The wire is long enough. It feels durable and is comfortable to use.

Really nice controller
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This controller really surprised me. I usually just stick with the Microsoft branded normal controllers, but this controller really is an upgrade. It feels super comfortable in your hand, and the joysticks are height adjustable so I made them a bit taller because I have larger hands. It connects immediately and has great battery life. It is lighter than a normal controller but doesn’t feel cheap or brittle.

Sleak design and comfortable!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have historically used a wireless controller but this new wired controller is a really sleak design that brings comfort and performance to my gaming hours. It was simple to connect and get set up and I look forward to using for hours and hours more!

Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This holds up to a lot of gameplay, also a huge fan of the value...it's wired, so no battery buying needed. Works just fine with our XBOX as a regular plug and play

Definitely don't buy/ the controller is terrible
It aims in when you don't want it shoots when you don't want to. Terrible. Just stick with the regular xbox wireless controller. Never buy anything cheaper.

Great Budget-Friendly Controller
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I picked up the PowerA Advantage Plus Wired Controller for my Xbox Series X, and I’ve been really impressed. The joysticks feel smooth and responsive, and the overall build quality is solid and comfortable for the price. What stood out most was how seamless the connection was—no lag at all during gameplay. It’s a great option if you’re looking for a reliable wired controller without breaking the bank and awesome as a back up as well!
