Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the controller's build quality, adjustable triggers, helpful paddles, and comfortable grip. Many appreciate its lightweight design and ease of use, along with the extensive customization options. However, some customers reported issues with stick drift and battery life, while others found the back buttons to be less than ideal and the warranty period too short. The price point was also a factor in some negative feedback.

    I have used SCUF controllers for a really long time and firmly believe they are the best pro style controller.

    Stick drift in less than a year but warranty only lasts 6 months. I’m 30 and maybe put 80hrs of gaming into it. Shouldn’t have gotten stick drift with so little time.

    Started out great, but shortly after the return period expired, the Stick Drift became god awful, any time you barely move the thumb sticks, it doesn't return to center. no amount of dead zone adjustments help.

    As someone coming from the Elite Series 2 controller I can firmly say that the Instinct Pro is definitely my controller of choice for a variety of reasons. Scuf has definitely focused on those small details here that allows the Instinct Pro to set itself at the top of the mountain for gaming controllers. Firstly, right out of the box you can tell that it is a premium controller as the build quality is exceptional. The most noticeable aspect when it comes to feel is the textured rubber grip as it is not simply just a subtle rubber, but is noticeable to the point you can actually feel the difference. The weight of the controller is also noticeable as it is lighter than it`s key competitor. Another element that sets Scuf apart is the customizability of the controller as you can do more than simply swap the sticks as the controller faceplate is removable and thus you can constantly be changing your faceplate designs and colors so that you are not just boxed into one design forever. This is not just a gimmicky design with cheap faceplates as Scuf definitely is ensuring superior build quality and usability as I did not feel as though the faceplates were just a cheap afterthought. So now that I`ve discussed the superior feel and design I will say that the usability is just as strong. I first have to say how much I like the style of mapping the buttons here as there is no digital interface or app as it is all simply done by pressing buttons on the controller in the appropriate sequence which I will say is extremely quick and simple to which the three profiles makes switching settings between game genres effortless. Moving on to actually playing with the controller there are two facets that set this controller apart. The first are the paddles to which I absolutely love the design that Scuf has elected to go with here as it takes a couple days to get used to, but it is so easy to use as it is just one paddle on each side that you rock your finger on instead of two separate paddles on each side. Then secondly are the instant triggers as Scuf advertises depressing the triggers similar to a mouse click when you toggle this setting on to which I couldn`t agree more and definitely gives you that slight advantage in FPS games. All in all, I really think Scuf has checked all the boxes with this controller as they have been in this marketplace for so long that they have thought of everything with this controller from the comfort and customizability of the controller to the actual usability. Being a Scuf product I have no hesitation with the quality of product which can`t be said for the Elite Series 2 with its multitude of build quality issues. I would not hesitate recommending this controller to anyone looking to upgrade from the base Xbox controller as this controller really has all the bells and whistles you could ask for.

    Not worth the money whatsoever. I’ve had my Scuf for less than a full month and the overall durability of the controller is poor. I have multiple buttons that stick, the d-pad falls off, and the ability to reconfigure your controller doesn’t work that well. I’m very disappointed with the overall quality of this controller, for the lack of use it’s had.
