About this deal

Design and FeaturesIn shape, The PowerA Spectra enhanced differs only slightly from the traditional Xbox One controller. It has smoother curves and the front edge is flat, as opposed to the angular design at the front of the Xbox One controller. The Enhanced Wired Controller creates a reasonably comparable experience to the standard Xbox Series X controller. Aside from the wired connection, which provides the standard performance benefits and potentially inconvenient logistical limitations, there are very few times where I noticed what controller I was using. That may sound derisive, but it’s an endorsement: Since the controller costs nearly half as much as the first-party default, “comparable” is a significant achievement. This is all customisable thanks to the inclusion of a simple LED button on the rear side of the controller. Holding this down for a couple of seconds initiates LED Program Mode and from there a push of the D-Pad to the right will let you scroll through the Zones. From there, making the most of the four face buttons will set your colour type, each unique to the buttons themselves. This means that hitting the A button will cycle through five different types of green, whilst Y will cover the yellow angle, B that of red and X of blue. Mixing and matching will see you able to have the Spectra glowing all manner of colours. The PowerA Spectra Infinity Enhanced Wired Controller (to give its full name), is an Xbox branded option for those gamers who just need a whole ton of colour in their lives. Set-up and laid out pretty much exactly as that of the official Xbox Wireless Controller from Microsoft, this wired controller feels great in the hand. I mean, really great in the hand.

Each of the three Zones can be set independently, with different colours, whilst pressing left on the D-Pad will toggle between a ‘breathing’ or ‘solid’ light effect. Push up and down on that same D-Pad and you’ll increase – or decrease – the brightness. The UKCA (UK Conformity Assessment) mark is a declaration from the manufacturer that the product meets applicable UK Regulations for health, safety, and environmental protection. NOTE: Audio controls within Xbox Settings will take first priority, followed by the Headset dial, and finally any audio or mute controls on your headset. Refer to your Xbox and headset documentation for additional details.

A: Confirm you are using the Player #1 controller. For more troubleshooting refer to your Xbox console User Manual. WARNING: READ BEFORE PLAYING In general, I have mixed feelings about the utility of putting audio inputs on controllers: On the one hand, it’s easier to make adjustments on the fly with them than with a headset’s onboard controls. On the other, the controls only work with 3.5mm wired headsets that you plug into the controller, which fewer and fewer headsets use as their preferred means of connection. The audio controls do not impact the controller negatively at all, so it isn’t as if I don’t appreciate their presence, but their value is actually more niche than you might realize at a glance. PowerA Enhanced Wired Controller – Gaming A: Confirm your TV is set to the proper Video Input and that you can see the Xbox console interface on your TV screen.

Hold down the Xbox Button until your console powers “ON”. The controller’s LED Connection Indicator will illuminate to indicate your controller is connected. Credit has to go to PowerA for creating such a simple to use system, integrating it brilliantly into the Spectra. Whilst it may seem complicated initially, just a matter of minutes is all you need before you’ve got your controller glowing as you wish. And it’s just as easy to amend that again once you get bored. The Spectra Enhanced also gets the RGB treatment, with lighting around all of the face controls and the entire edge of the device. There are seven colors available as well as a mode that cycles between each color. It doesn’t look half bad, and it’s easy enough to turn the light off if RGB isn’t your thing.

The chassis measures 6.00 x 4.13 x 2.53 inches (WDH), just a hair larger than the standard Series X controller. Weighing 208 grams, it’s deceptively light: I wouldn’t describe it as especially light in my hands, but it weighs substantially less than the Series X controller (287g).

I took the controller on a long slog through Batman: Arkham Knight, playing more than 20 hours of the campaign. The Spectra Enhanced was there for every step, and it held up flawlessly. The process offers numerous options, but it’s not at all intuitive. You practically need to keep the instructions around for reference. An app for setting and uploading gamepad configurations would have been a much better option. Responsive Gameplay
