Contactless magnetic sensors
The controller's analogue sticks work with modern Hall effect technology, which uses integrated magnetic sensors to detect their position. This contactless system completely eliminates the physical wear and tear on internal components, which causes inaccuracies and unwanted character movement in standard controllers. This gives you consistently high precision when aiming and moving in-game, throughout the entire life of the device.
Programmable buttons
On the back of the ergonomically shaped body are two advanced gaming buttons that you can map to suit your current needs. These extra buttons let you quickly assign selected game functions mid-match without having to pause the game and open the console or PC system settings. This means you can configure the control scheme on the fly. The system makes it easier to perform more complex gaming actions and speeds up your reaction time.
Adjustable trigger action
Mechanical trigger locks on the back of the controller let you physically set the trigger pull distance to three different positions. A shorter pull distance significantly speeds up firing in action games and first-person shooters. The middle position offers a balanced action, and the full range of motion delivers precise throttle control in racing simulators. You can change the setting instantly to match your chosen game genre.
Haptic feedback
Inside the ergonomic grips are two separate rumble motors that provide detailed haptic feedback. The main motors are complemented by integrated impulse triggers, which transmit vibrations directly to your fingertips when shooting, braking, or during impacts in supported games. This lets you feel the texture of the road surface, the recoil of weapons, and nearby explosions more accurately for better spatial awareness in-game.
Ergonomics and design
The lightweight 0.205kg design, with a diamond-textured surface on the grips, helps you maintain a stable and firm hold, even during long gaming sessions. Special anti-friction rings are placed around both analogue sticks, eliminating material resistance and contributing to smooth, 360° movement. On the underside, you'll also find a standard 3.5mm jack for easily connecting compatible gaming headsets.
Software settings
The free companion PowerA Gamer HQ app is used for advanced customisation of the controller's behaviour directly on Xbox consoles or on PCs running Windows 10 and Windows 11. The program offers complete button testing and calibration of the analogue sticks and triggers to suit your individual requirements.
