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.

    Good Controller

    Good build quality. Overall i like it. The thumbsticks are sturdy and not loose like the elite, which is the reason i needed to seek out a different controller. The elite i had to set the deadzone to 12-15(i returned it). These ones i needed to put the deadzone to 5 and 6. Hence the 4 stars. My $30 controller can have the deadzone at 0, but it has no buttons.

    For a $200 product I was expecting to have a rechargeable battery pack but instead it only came with batteries and a cartridge that weren’t rechargeable. Build quality is good and responsive if you run into input delay it’s typically the game you are playing such as Cod, you need to go in settings and set the dead zone to 0

    Great controller, but still developed stick drift

    Excellent controller. Seamlessly integrates with PC. Textured grips became discolored after a 6 months. Stick drift developed after 8 and I had to return after a year due to stick drift being unbearable. Rear buttons are great, but two of them on the inner handle were hard for me to reliably access without interfering with the analogue sticks. Overall, was an incredible feeling controller with reliable rear buttons, but stick drift developing after only a year at this price point was not acceptable.

    I love this thing. I went from using an Elite control for 10 years to using this Scuf controller. It’s love how easy it is to reach the paddles & the customization even though it’s not as customizable as the Elite but still love it nonetheless. Especially the grips & mouse triggers.

    First off, it’s great. From the matte finish/grip to the paddles. You can change the face of it too!! Dpad and analogs or swappable. It’s a great controller. Pretty easy using the paddles, mapping them and switching the modes. Great controller!!

    The Scuf Instict Pro Is Hands Down The Best

    INSTANT 5 STARS. The controller is AMAZING, the comfortability of the sticks and the stick tension are perfect for shooter like call of duty and R6. Not to mention the back paddles give ease of access for all my binds like pinging and opening the map. The back controller grip is also top tier, it feels like my hands are almost stuck to the controller and i have sweaty palms. This controller makes it seem like getting any other would be asinine and it’s gonna be my go to for the fore seen future.

    My favorite Xbox controller

    This is my second scuff controller for my Xbox series X. I know they’re a bit expensive but i believe they are completely worth it. The build quality is excellent, the buttons have never gotten sticky or stuck for me. The triggers also have never gotten sticky the way oem controllers do. The joysticks are just loose enough to feel smooth. The customizable faceplates are a nice bonus. I never really use the back paddles or the trigger stop switch but they are very nice to have. I prefer the design of these back paddles because they stay out of the way until I need to use them. I rarely accidentally hit the back paddle buttons with my fingers. I honestly have no complaints about this controller. The only reason I bought another is because I gave my other scuff controller to my nephew.

    Amazing controller until it isn’t. Expect the same stickdrift you’d find on a standard Microsoft controller. The modules are the same, as are many of the parts on this controller. Get the extended warranty. My stickdrift didn’t start until tye warranty had just passed, so now I’m stuck paying for a repair of their quality issue. To be clear, it was never dropped, bumped, manhandled, or even roughly used. I pretty much only play one game, and I’m not a “gamer”, I’m a casual PUBG player, and it still went to crap. Gonna just buy Xbox controllers from now on. I’d rather throw away a controller that costs $50, instead of having a $270 controller need $50 or more In repair costs.

    Too expensive with too many annoyances

    I wanted a controller that would give me a longer right stick for finer movement, and I’m fed up with the Elite controllers drifting. Unfortunately, changing out sticks on this is too cumbersome. The paddles on the back get in the way (can simply opt not to attach them on the Elite) and I’m routinely pressing them on accident. Also, I just discovered that they prevent attaching a chatpad. So, for me, the only useful feature of this controller is the mouse click style triggers. Unfortunately, I think this means I will be returning this controller.

    Honest Review of SCUF Instinct Pro

    This controller is by far the best one out there. It might take you a second to get used to the paddle/back button design but once you do you’ll become a god at games. I’ve also heard complaints about the controller not lasting long as in like 6 months to a year but my other one lasted for over two years of extreme use. And since this controller has interchangeable joysticks you could look to buy a stick pack from SCUF that includes a short concave, short convex, tall concave, and tall convex stick. I and many others would recommend short concave on left (default) and tall convex/domed on the right. I also found I didn’t even really need Kontrol Freeks for this controller as the tall convex/domed was enough, and I play high sense on controller for Rainbow Six Siege.
