    Scuf makes an awesome controller, but this started to get stick drift after 3 months. They want $90 to repair something that should be under warranty. I'll be trying out their competitors going forward.

    Bought this after an old battlebeaver controller of mine started having issues. The price is definitely my least favorite part of this controller but the rear button layout is one of the best I’ve used. Most paddle systems for me, force me to play/hold my controller slightly different but this set up allows for just a comfortable grip and access to all face buttons using your middle fingers. Gave this 5/5 right now for ease of use, premium feel, rear button layout and the mouse click type triggers! Long term use is yet to be seen…

    to start with this controller is very comfortable in the hands and the grip is great. but that's about it. i have bought three instinct pro's in the past two weeks and i kept trying because the reviews were about a 70/30 mix from good to bad so i figured eventually i would get one with no issues and ohh was i ever wrong. the instant triggers are horrible. It really disapoints me because i have large hands and this controller is bigger than xbox elite. All i can say is dont waste your money an a 250$$ controller thats going to dissapoint you especially if you play a lot of COD.. Save the 75 dollars and pick up xbox elite 2.. so much better and faster..

    It's been 4 months since I purchased the Scuf. Wanted to give it some time since so many people complain about the lack of longevity in Scufs. Mine has been upstanding. Back paddles are great. Buttons are responsive. I've got hundreds of hours put on it and not one complaint. I keep mine stored in the box when not using, cause it is a little delicate(having removable front face plate and all). 10/10 recommend.

    It was good while it lasted. I just checked when I purchased it to see if it lasted longer than my Xbox elite series 2 and it did but at the end of the day the stick drift just got out of control. The elite series had way more problems in regards to buttons registering but I’m rating this 2 stars because after 2 years I would hope for some kind of update or enhancement but it’s the same controller selling for the same price.

    THEE BEST CONTROLLER EVER.... If you're looking for a PHENOMINAL gaming experience look no further. this controller feels great, and I have average sized hands and the controller melts in my hand. I currently play on my PC with this and overclocked and it's been a year and NO ISSUES. I recommend this 1000%.

    Good: Good weight and feel, faceplate removal is nice: Bad: Uses 2 AA Batteries instead of being rechargeable like Elite Controllers. Only has 2 settings for trigger sensitivity unless which feels very odd in its “locked” setting for faster trigger response. My B button sticks intermittently and at almost $70 more than Elite Controller.. yeah.. I messed up

    So far a great controller, not having the Hall effect sticks for its price point it’s a downer, however I haven’t encountered any stick drift a couple weeks in so we shall see.
