Replaced my Xbox Elite core with this controller. Amazing. Zero stick drift and a huge upgrade over the Elite. You will not be disappointed. Ergonomics are great, easy to reach the paddles and just as easy to customize for your preferences

This is the best controller I have used. I love the no drift sticks. It has had a few disconnects but that is expected with a new controller. Hopefully they figure that out with a firmware update.

I’ve been using the SCUF Valor Pro Wireless mostly for gaming on Steam, and overall it’s a solid controller with a premium feel.
Right away, it feels slightly better than a regular controller—maybe a bit lighter, and the buttons just feel nicer to press. The triggers themselves feel good too. I’m not a competitive gamer by any means, but even as a casual player, I could tell there was a small improvement over a standard controller.
My biggest issue is with the back triggers. I kept hitting them by accident, especially during more intense moments. The placement feels awkward—having buttons right where you naturally grip the controller just didn’t work well for me, and it ended up being more annoying than helpful.
The controller definitely feels premium, but the price is hard to justify if you’re a casual gamer like me. I mostly play single-player games, and for the cost of one of these, you could buy two or three regular controllers. It kind of feels like overkill unless you’re really invested in getting every possible edge.
Overall, it’s a well-made controller and feels great in hand, but it’s probably better suited for more competitive players rather than casual “gamer dads” like myself.

Satisfyingly clicky and accurate. Like all the recent pro type controllers the weight feels nice in your hands. It has Bluetooth but is not iOS compatible.

This is, by far, the best controller I've ever used(been gaming with controllers since before consoles were a thing). It won't be for everyone because of the "handles". There's a little extra beef to them and are rubberized. For me, I have pinched nerves that mess with my hands, it's a better feel than regular Xbox controllers(or then many designed like them). TMR sticks are the ONLY way to go. A little pricey, but, IMO, well worth it. The GameSir G7 Pro was my original choice, but it's just too small for my hands, and I'm not a big guy. I also really like the placement of the back buttons, as I have not even once accidently hit any of them. The only complaint I have is that the software is in beta, which makes it a little bit of a pain to get installed on Xbox.

Good controller overall, I like the dpad a lot. The grip texture feels great and premium. Ergonomics are good just not exactly to original Xbox controller. Joysticks are decent just feel a little too lose for my liking, I like more tension. Back paddles are easily accessible but the 2 smaller ones take some time getting used to. Software still in beta, works but still needs some qol fixes. It can get buggy sometimes where your mouse pointer would disappear. Better controller than the Razer v3 pro Xbox controller in my opinion.

This controller was a game changer for me. I’ve purchased the Microsoft Elite 2 controllers over the years and have had nothing but problems with stick drift on them. This SCUF controller feels like butter on the thumb sticks. Been playing BF6 with it for about a month now and have had zero issues. The controller seems to fit my hand much more ergonomically than others as well. I love the mouse click style feedback on the triggers too. Amazing controller!

Nice and lightweight in comparison to an elite controller and last a lot longer

Feels great to hold, works well since I have larger hands. Changing profiles or connection types (xbox/ pc/ bluetooth) is easy. Negatives are that the instructions offer little to no help on how to perform functions like remapping buttons. Also having an issue where the controller will just stop accepting inputs from both joysticks and the dpad, but all other buttons work. Restarting sometimes helps.

Love this controller! I play a lot of FPS games, and having the programmable buttons on the bottom has been a game-changer! I have had two elite controllers before this. I was having some stick drift issues with the Elite controllers and decided to spend the money to get this controller because of the apparent anti-stick drift claim. Read a ton of reviews and then decided to pull the trigger. Having a bunch of rewards to use softened the blow of the very pricey controller but worth it so far.

Awesome controller. Upgraded from the elite series 2 controller and have no regrets. No stick drift

Been pleased with this purchase. Controller feels good in the hand and feels solid. Responsive buttons and sticks and very easy to swap between PC & Xbox though ive not tried to see if it has bluetooth as well. Price point is a lottle high but the TMR sticks and overall build quality i can live with it. Only time will tell overall longevity but I prefer this Scuf to both of my Elite controllers.

I’ve been using the SCUF VALOR PRO and honestly I like it a lot. It feels really good in the hands, plays well, and just feels like a high quality controller overall. You can tell it was made with gaming in mind.
My only real issue is having to remember to charge it, but that’s my fault, not the controller’s. The thumb sticks can also be a little hard to remove, but aside from that I really don’t have any complaints.
Overall, it’s a really good controller and I’d recommend it.

The SCUF Valor Pro Wireless feels incredible in hand, with grips that keep it secure and comfortable through long gaming sessions. The build quality is premium and perfectly balanced — it feels solid without being heavy. Battery life is impressive, lasting multiple sessions before needing a charge. The wireless connection stays strong with zero lag. Easily one of the best controllers I’ve used for Xbox.

Great controller! Ergonomics are good, stick ends could be a little bit longer but it does come with extra long stick ends if you need. Coming from the instinct pro im liking it and getting used to it more and more

Coming from an elite series 2 which developed stick drift after 3 years of use. This controller is great, I like the clicky bumpers and the hair trigger stops. Comfortable finish almost like a non-slip in a way. The dongle connection is strong so no worries there. The paddles on the back are great, it’s hard to accidentally press them.
