    Initially was turned off the price, but this is the highest quality controller I have ever used. The rear buttons are super helpful once you get used to them. The replaceable joysticks are much more comfortable. Would recommend to anybody who spends 4+ hours a week gaming

    "The Scuf Xbox controller feels and looks great! It's designed for smaller hands, which makes it comfortable to hold. It has the same familiar feel as the standard Xbox controllers, but I noticed a quicker response time for actions like kills and other movements. My only suggestion would be to offer more customization options in the original box purchase, but overall, I highly recommend this product!"

    Nothing wrong with the product. Depending on your hand size and what not the back buttons might not work. That is the case for me, a friend tried it and never had issues.

    Great controller performance. Stick drift started to build on the right stick and essentially makes the game unplayable with this controller.

    I purchased this from the recent best buy drop and i was severely underwhelmed. The DPad is extremely loud and loose. The build quality feels like a cheap aftermarket hollow plastic controller with good rubber rear grips. As a designer myself the faceplate did not meet the expectations of the product images. In person it resembled a low quality screen print. The customizable analogs were great to include however i had an unreasonable deadzone that was not accounted for with the longer stick. This made aiming less precise and more push and pull. I hate to rag on a product but its just not up to par for the price in my opinion. The mouse triggers were cool and seemed to work well. It makes the trigger throw significantly shorter. So short that its shorter than my actual mouse. There is a fair bit of resistance to prevent acdidental pulls, however. I didn't believe the other reviews were reasonable but I do now understand the complaints. At the end of the day it is your average controller. The controller comes in a fairly standard no frills box with PE wrapped under the rubber which truly gives you that pulling the controller out of a trash bag unboxing experience. The USB C cable was a fairly long maybe 10' braided cable. Lastly i wish the rear buttons were modifiable rather than emulating face buttons. Additional buttons makes more sense than duplicate buttons.

    I was in-between thos controller and the Elite Series 2. I’ve tried both and decided to stick with the scuf controller. All 4 paddles are much more comftorable to hit in game and they dont feel like they are cramming my fingers. The feel of the soft touch shell snd grops are fantastic.
