One thing that stood out immediately was how much I didn’t notice I was using a third-party pad.
Both also have capture and share buttons in the same place you’d find them on first-party pads.
#POWER A SPECTRA CONTROLLER PRO#
Button layout is identical to an Xbox or Switch Pro Controller, although there’s a couple of mappable turbo switches on the back side of the pad for extra personalisation. I like the feedback of feeling something sturdy in hand when I’m gaming. They feel great in your hands, too, weighty and solid, which for me is very important in a controller. It has a matte black finish, and the Infinity in particular could be easily mistaken for a branded controller. The Spectra is a good looking controller, too. On the positive side, you won’t have to charge them or swap the batteries in the middle of a boss fight. I know a lot of people prefer wireless, but there’s not much of a downside to using a wire if you have the space for it and don’t mind them dragging. The only real difference is on the console side, because plugging a USB into the Switch is decidedly more awkward than on the Xbox.Īctually that’s a good place to start, because the only real caveat here is that these controllers are wired. While they are for different consoles, the design is so similar that what applies to one applies to the other. In fact, I’d probably go so far as to say they’re among the best third-party controllers I’ve reviewed recently. I’ve had the pleasure of trying out a couple of these controllers: the Spectra for Nintendo Switch and the Spectra Infinity for Xbox, and I’m pretty impressed with both. But you can’t go far wrong with PowerA and their range of Spectra Enhanced Wired Controllers. You’re also contending with a very busy market there are tons of different brands, models and makes, and picking the right one can be tricky. Most people will, at some point or another, need to either replace a controller or buy a second or third one. Anyone who plays games a lot – and I mean a lot, upwards of 20 hours a week – knows that while controllers are pretty robust, they don’t last forever.
