After conscientiously evaluating this product over a two-week period, I am pleased to offer it a commendable four-star rating. Employed extensively in conjunction with my PC gaming pursuits, particularly with MW3, I embarked upon a comparative analysis with other leading brands and Scuf controllers. Without reservation, I can assert that none have rivalled the superiority of this particular model.
One of its most striking features is the unparalleled level of customization imbued within the controller itself, elevating it to the upper echelons of gaming peripherals. Remarkably, even after protracted gaming sessions spanning over six hours, the controller remains impeccably ergonomic, ensuring sustained comfort and minimal fatigue.
Furthermore, the setup process is admirably streamlined, affording users a hassle-free experience. Regrettably, the only minor drawback, and the sole reason for withholding a perfect five-star rating, pertains to the occasional software glitches encountered within iCue. These sporadic instances necessitate vigilance to prevent inadvertent alteration of settings.
Despite this minor caveat, I am unequivocally content with the overall performance and functionality of this product. It has undoubtedly exceeded my expectations, affirming its status as a commendable addition to any discerning gamer's arsenal.

Great Controller, Be Mindful on Game Pass

I was extremely hesitant to purchase this controller with mixed reviews online. I had seen some horrible things about stick drift and sensitive triggers out of the box, as well as the iCue software being terrible. I have used this one controller on both my desktop that already had iCue installed, as well as a legion go that had a fresh install for just this controller. No software issues on either device. I have experienced no stick drift, and my triggers are great as well! Last. Scuf ihad was for the 360, and I’ve used an original Elite controller since 2017. Having the shape of an Xbox controller with the parallel joysticks to only a few hours too get used to, And the sane goes for the back button design. The side-Sax buttons don’t get in the way either. I’d say in the 20+ hours of gameplay, Ive accidentally pressed them three times tops. I will say that game pass does not recognize it as an Xbox controller, so certain games that require a controller will not work with this one.

Best controller I’ve ever owned

My favorite controller I’ve ever owned out of 10+ controllers. The mouse click triggers/buttons feel great, and all the bonus features such as custom lighting, macros, and fast wireless connection are great. Only wish the durability was a little better, with the back paddles breaking after quite a bit of use. I’d recommend getting the 2 year warrranty.

Straight out of the box requires some fine tuning to thumb sticks through Icue. I expected to hop right into games where I left off however that wasn’t the case. I had to watch a couple YouTube videos and tweak some settings to get the controller to feel just right . Icue software could use a little love on changing settings . Took a couple try’s to understand what I was doing but like I said I had to watch videos to find somewhat a good feeling.
in my opinion envision has a wired version that takes away the “wireless option” and “trigger stops” . As a pc player playing wireless always has that risk of losing connection so wired is definitely something I would go for. trigger stops to me seem like a gimic that you don’t necessarily need. Between the regular vs pro I don’t think you can remap as many buttons and or change profiles “g keys” like you could on the pro controller, if you were to go the non pro version but I don’t see that as much of a deal breaker.
The pro controller comes with side buttons but I don’t use them at all and they do not get in the way of playing.
as far as charging my controller is always wired so it continuously charges.
The four back buttons on the controller two of them are in an awkward position which are the higher buttons . I don’t see how anyone can swipe the tip of the finger to hit the button . If you’re used to Xbox pro controller these two buttons will feel out of place. I can’t say the same with the bottom buttons as they are in a perfect position to hit. I remapped the top two to be completely off so I don’t hit them by accident . All the buttons on the controller have a clicky feeling to it which feels nice playing.
I’ve had some worst controllers then this and I would recommend it to friends however there’s a few cons scuff should address if they were to ever make a pro 2 version.

In general the control is very good, here some details about my experience.
The good:
* Easy to configure
* 2 Modes (USB / Wireless)
* Good battery life
* All buttons are like mouse clicks
* Trigger can be switched between mouse click or real complete trigger travel.
The Bad:
* iCue integration
The iCue software if ok when working, after a month of usage I start receiving error messages that the profiles in iCue didn't match the profiles on the device itself, only way I found to resolve that (before) was uninstalling and reinstalling the iCue software again + a factory reset on the controller.
Update: To avoid having this problems with the iCue software you can setup the hardware mapping and close the icue app before start playing. Only issue with that is hardare mapping will not allow to customize the 5 action buttons below the sticks. I hope the iCue issue is resolved soon so I can start mapping my actions buttons again.
Note: If you are using control freaks you are going to rub the face plate on the top left side of left stick, you may need to rotate the control freak until you find that sweet spot or sand one of the control freak clamp a little bit

Absolutely amazing pro controller!! Must have

Once I started using pro controllers I couldn’t go back. This pro controller took it to another level tho. At first I was excited because of the 6 mappable buttons but didn’t understand the 5 G buttons, as I was used to the onboard mapping of the pro controller. However I decided to get the software on pc and it opened a whole new world of possibilities! I now have custom profiles for every game I play so that way I don’t have to swap anything like I would with any other pro controller I’ve used. I also was able to map macro’s to each G button (the g1-g5 buttons on the front). Never used macros in pc much but being able to have keyboard macros on a controller? It’s a must have personally. Only thing I would like is it had motion control capabilities as a lot of games I play takes advantage on motion aiming, other than hat it is a perfect controller for pc. I love controller play but as most will agree they are a lot more clunky then using mouse and keyboard, however I now primarily use this controller rather than switching back all the time. I would heavily recommend this controller especially for the price. The pc software did take a little learning to get the hang of it, and ot has to be running in the background for the controller to use those custom settings (not the regular onboarding mapping that works if the app isn’t on) which was confusing but after getting the hang of it it’s perfect!

This controller is great. The triggers and buttons are fantastic and super responsive. The controller itself feels amazing in my hands and the paddles are designed perfectly, providing a natural feel and placement for your fingers. 10/10 ergonomics! Being able to easily remove and change faceplates (because they’re magnetic) is a very nice touch. The ability to modify your triggers and buttons so easily and quickly makes for the dream controller every PC player wants. The only thing I will say is there are some bugs that still need to be worked out like the random disconnecting it does from time to time. Also, they forgot to add the ability to modify buttons to do whatever you want just like with another Corsair product. I know you can already do a lot but there are a few small things you can do on a mouse for example that you cannot do with this controller and it’s main highlight is that it’s completely modifiable. I know this is a Scuf product but with Corsair now owning them and launching this controller to be just like one of their products, they could have easily added these missing features. Overall, I do love this product! But don’t just take my word for it if you’re still on the fence about it. Buy it and test it out to see if it’s right for you!

The paddle control system is a game-changer for those seeking a competitive edge. The additional paddles on the back of the controller provide extra programmable inputs, allowing for quicker and more efficient gameplay. It took a bit of time to get used to, but once integrated into my gaming routine, I found it to be a significant advantage in fast-paced and competitive scenarios.
The responsive and precise triggers further contribute to the overall immersive experience. The controller's sensitivity can be fine-tuned to match specific preferences, ensuring that every action in-game is executed with the utmost accuracy.
While the Scuf Envision Pro comes with a premium price tag, the investment is justified by the enhanced gaming performance and the longevity of the controller.

GREAT Controller for the price! 1ms Input delay and loving the triggers. I mainly play Rocket League and Call Of Duty and the extra buttons are perfect. Personally, it took about 3 days to fully get used to the feel of the controller but now I think I mastered it lol. I also take off the back 2 bumpers and the left side button as I kept hitting them on accident frequently. Lots of customization and wonderful feel.

FPS Gaming Focused Review

I have used Elite Series 2, Scuf impact, Scuf Reflex, and dualsense Aimcontroller. I have used the Scuf envision for 22 hours of in game play (Modern Warfare III)
Response time: early on many states that the envision couldn’t be OCed (increase polling rate) but over time (and I tested it) this controller has the best polling rate out of the box. Elite is about 4-5ms, dualsense 3.5-4.2ms (can be OC to 1ms with 8000 polling rate). While the envision stands a 1.2 -1.4ms with some samples as low as 1ms.
Features: well the side buttons is a nice touch but will touch on that later (under ergonomics). Although I am aware of the issues with iCue (which I have not experienced with controller but sure have with fan control etc) basically it is the elite series 2 level of mods on steroids.
Battery life: I have not tested since I am using on usb
Cost: you can compare to Scuf controllers itself or any other company that mods controllers and will find quickly that this is the best cost efficient controller out there. However, it’s PC only and if there is a PlayStation game port, you will still need a dualsense controller due to inputs that don’t exist on the envision (example: trackpad)
Ergonomics: here is where I will give a biased 6.5/10 due to being used to the 4 paddle location the elite and the AimControllers provide which is paddles located in areas that you can have 1 finger per paddle while the envision is made (I believe Based on how YT reviewers showed the controller) with 2 paddles per finger. The side buttons while useful, you can’t map buttons that could potentially impact your gameplay during an agitated gun fight. They are pretty sensitive and the location means that you finger will be in contact with the side button 24/7.
Build quality: I was shock to read some people said it feels “cheap”. In my opinion it feels even better than a stocks Xbox controller. However, if you get white version, expect that it will get dirty overtime. It’s white: it’s not if, is when it gets dirty or stains.
Getting used to it: give it time. It takes time to adjust to have a Xbox shape controller with thumbsticks centered and the new side buttons.
Category of games that benefit: easy FPS games and racing. Anything else can be played with a regular controller.
Conclusion: if you have a Best Buy close by, buy it from there. The return Christmas return policy kicked in this month which means that any purchase can be returned until January 13. This will give you plenty of time to test it out and come up with your own conclusions.
Lastly: happy gaming everyone!

It is a nice, quality controller and I like the ability to customize actions, the thing I am not a fan of is the side buttons and the under trigger buttons, I find myself frequently hitting a button unintentionally and attempting to hold the controller to try and prevent is not the most comfortable, but its is still a quality controller packed with options.

PERFORMANCE GAMING DESIGNED FOR PC.
11 additional remappable inputs. Ultra-fast wireless connectivity. Advanced configuration software to push customization like never before. More control, more finesse, and more performance than your typical console controller.
FULLY PROGRAMMABLE G-KEYS
Five on-board buttons ready for any function you need. Simple Windows shortcuts. Advanced macros. Another button to map to your ‘Y’ button. The possibilities are endless.
Best of both worlds, no more picking and choosing with Adjustable Instant Triggers. Go from having a mouse-like click for your favorite shooter games to a smooth to a full range pull for RPG and racing style games with a simple flip of a switch. Available only on Envision Pro.
I can tell you it’s up my gaming on major first person shooters Apex, MW3, works wonders in New World.

I love this controller it’s so much better than the dual sense edge. I play on PC and I’ve had the edge for 2 years and trust me when I say the scuf is amazing. The response time is way faster and it feels better overall. It even feels better in my hands. I bought the 2 year warranty as well so I’m good.

Turns fun into homework and headaches

I bought this controller in November 2023. It has functioned as intend for roughly two months. During that time the performance was great. It is now smashed and headed to the trash. Have never smashed a condoler until this one. It made fun into a chore and brought out the worst in me. 0 Stars do not recommend.
For a little more context, the controller did not really work well when I first got it. Most of that was due to the Corsiar iCue software that it can partner with. The software would regularly change profiles on me during gameplay and anything I attempted seemed not to have an effect. The various profiles can remap the buttons for different games. A handy feature I don't want. I tried deleting all the profiles.. Nope they would come back. I tried manually mapping all the profiles to the same thing.. Nope.. So I just put the controller in a drawer and forgot about it for a year or so.
Sometime later I needed a spare controller to take on a trip. The Scuf controller got a second chance. When paired with my laptop and not the iCue software the controller was great. I figured out how to manually map buttons and it worked great. I started using it regularly. The performance was very solid. The ergonomics were great. I figured it was just bad luck with the iCue software and avoided using it. Then I started running into connection issues.
The controller would not pair if I did not turn it on before a game. Sometimes even after it was on, I would have to reload a game multiple times before it would work. This time it was the same story on my laptop vs desktop. That said, once it was working it would stay working, at least until it started disconnecting during gameplay. Full battery, dongle still detected.. I lost it when it disconnected during a Rocket League tournament. In a moment of rage I smashed it on my desk until little bits of plastic were coming out.
Therapeutic it was and probably less than a session with a professional therapist. Still, I don't feel like I had much fun with the controller. Two months of doing the job after a lot of homework is poor value. I am putting this one in the trash where it belongs and it will be hard to convince me to ever pick up a product from Scuf again.
I know smarter folks than me seem to like this one. If you like fiddling with things until they act right, playing with iCue software, and connection reliability troubleshooting than this one may be a good choice for you. If you are looking for a simple controller that works reliably, then look elsewhere. At least that is what I plan to do.

Controller is great I have been using the elite pro 2 for some time. This controller got stick drift almost immediately but tuned with the software it’s playable. The added buttons makes it great for hitting keys like push to talk and pinging. I am a casual dad gamer who spends maybe 10 hrs a week gaming. Pick it up you won’t regret and buy some control freeks. Didn’t like the dome shaped sticks but the freekz fix it.

Love everything about this controller! The mechanical switches for the button are a gamechanger. The controller itself fits perfectly in the hands and has a nice feel to the materials. The only downside is the iCUE software. They had temporarily paused firmware updates due to a major issue bricking controllers but recently it is back up. You still cannot update the dongle itself though so hopefully that gets resolved soon as well. One other thing to note is that this is my second controller. The first one started shutting off randomly then finally gave up altogether. It was under warranty so I sent it in under RMA. That was about a week ago. We will see when I get it back.

It needs to be more ergonomic.

It is a very beautiful control but its software is too problematic, really if you could use it at 100% of its capacity with device memory it would be the perfect control, but it is not...
If you are looking for a higher option, this is certainly not.
Despite appearing to be ergonomic, this is not ergonomic at all, it is very uncomfortable to press the rear levers and it is very unnatural. With the air conditioning, you run the risk of joint damage.
I think they should be based more on the concept of dual sense edge levers, these are more natural and ergonomic.
I do not recommend it for main control but perhaps as one more to the Collection if you can afford it.
