I prefer the elite 2 as it has a better layout for the back buttons. However if you havent already trained yourself to jse the Elite controller layout I could see this layout being advantageous. Finally an aftermarket controller for Xbox that is actually wireless. Seems to be quality and is far liter than the elite controller. I had a little bit of an issue with a sticky trigger that eventually worked itself out after breaking in but otherwise a good piece of kit.

Great controller but got stick drift after a using it a little under a year, would definitely get a warranty on the device. Very confortable to hold for long periods of time and the customization is cool.

Great controller over all. Its got a great weight and rubber grip so it feels great in the hands and the mouse like triggers are a must for fps!

Its an amazing controller. Found a work around to using the offical Xbox dongle with my Steam Deck. It feels great, the antifriction rings are awesome. If only it had Hall sticks and a rechargeable battery. I understand some people that use high end controllers dont care about the battery. I do, the elite series 2 with everything is $179. This controller feels better, but you are getting more bang for the buck with the elite.

I love the controller, it feels better than the elite Series 2, which is prone to stick drift, and you can use it fr any game on pc, it feels better, grip wise, it’s got a heavier feeling to it, like it’s made of metal

SCUF products are a little over priced but i find this controller GREAT if your looking to only use the paddles 1 way and not trying to flick/press "up". If you have smaller fingers, you may have issues utilizing the paddles as well. The grip, quality and customization though are awesome and i do recommend this controller.

I spent dozens of hours researching competitive controllers and was skeptical if this woukd live up to the hype. I’m happy to report this controller exceeded expectations and improved my play dramatically. I primarily play Halo and CoD so this is an instant upgrade. I have the BB Total Membership so if anything breaks, then im covered for two years. Broke bois need to stop complaining about the price. Most folks are dropping this much if not more for sneakers and you are going to get hundreds of hours of entertainment with this controller. If you play FPS games, youll be very happy with this controller. Always good to have the 2-year warranty for peace-of-mind too.

I loved the remote and that you can go from regular triggers to mouse click triggers. I love playing so many different video games but when I get competitive this remote comes in handy with the mouse clicks and paddles which feel so comfortable. 10/10 remote. I have a Scuf remote for my PS5 so it was only right to buy one for my Xbox! :)

So being that I own several pro controllers like scuf, aim, and hex, I can honestly say this controller is definitely worth the purchase. The option to switch game modes and triggers puts this controller in my personal top 3. Only con I have is the price but is justified considering the price of other pro controllers and the insta triggers that can adjust to regular triggers. I would definitely highly recommend this controller. I ended up buying a second one... Game like COD, Fortnite, are fun to play with this controller especially if your already good at those games.

Ok remote kinda over priced, I’m not sure what else to say. I think $120 would be a reasonable price for what this remote has to offer. It does feel a little more durable than the regular Xbox remote I’ll say that. But the foundation of this remote is based off the Microsoft Xbox remote.

Bought this for my Xbox Series X. Its a very good controller. Triggers, buttons, and sticks feel comfortable and responsive. Battery does drain faster than a standard Xbox controller.

Great controller great quality ease of use grip on the back really helps with hands that are sweaty or hot. Interchangeable thumbsticks great for swapping fps or any other matter back buttons that are bindable with different buttons and 3 modes to change and bide them overall really enjoy this controller and encourage you to get it.
