It is a pretty good quality control but the back buttons are hard to click. This affects when you are playing any fps or other game. But everything else it’s perfect in this controller
I would recommend this to a friend

Good controller for what is needed - standard issue

While I can see the appeal, the controller has massive stick sensitivity baked into the firmware that cannot be adjusted. This makes certain games feel super floaty and you have to massively tweak in game settings.

I've Loved scuf controllers for a long time, but this one. I don't know if I got a lemon but it's trash. Let's start by saying that there's an electrical problem in one of the TMR sticks and it has terrible stick. Drift which was not supposed to happen with this controller. I have contacted scuff and they tell me please bear with us in these holiday times. Your continued business is appreciated. Other than that it would be a fine controller

The Scuf Valor Pro Wireless Controller is a must have for your pc/xbox/mobile setup. It is very well built and has a very solid feeling. It is an officially licensed product by Microsoft, and they certainly picked a great controller to be part of their fleet.
This controller is very closely related to another high end xbox controller. To me though, the Scuf Valor Pro has a much better feel overall to the grip and playability aspect. It does feel a bit less fatiguing in the hands and is very good overall design. While the controller does feel very solid and well built, it also uses many components to make it much lighter.
One of the main aspects of the controller I love is the rear paddle setup. It has a much more streamlined design and the paddles sit much closer to the body of the controller. This keeps down the random accidental paddle presses during a game because they feel more natural in the controller. The other controller I just decided to remove the rear paddles because they stuck out so far and would accidentally hit them all the time. The paddles on the Scuf Valor Pro controller are also much firmer to push to help avoid that.
Much of the controller plays just like other xbox controllers. A big part of this controller is the anti-drift technology built into the thumbsticks. All the time on other controllers if you bump the thumbstick wrong or it drops on the floor accidentally, it would cause the thumbstick to have a permanent "Drift". With this controller, I have not had fear of that, but only time will tell if that lack of fear holds up or not.
On the Xbox and PC, You can go download the Scuf App and go into the controller settings and customize the paddles, and make other adjustments. It allows for quite the customization to give you the competitive edge. There are scroll wheels at the bottom of the controller on both sides of the headset jack. They control overall volume and game chat mix. The scroll wheels feel very solid and have a nice turn click.
It does have a nice controller tray that comes out of the box easily and I use it to set the controller in when it is not in use. They do make different colored trim pieces and thumbsticks that can be changed out to suit your customization preference, including different shaped thumbsticks. It does have a dongle and a 6ft usb-c cable for a wired connection if you want faster response, and also to recharge the battery. I have gamed a whole week with the controller before it was needed to be plugged back in to charge.
Overall, I highly recommend this controller. It definitely feels lighter and more enjoyable to game with. I look forward to continue using it for my gaming.
Overall this controller is well worth the investment and

I got this Scuf Valor Pro wireless controller for my Xbox a few days ago, and I have to say, I'm really happy with it so far. I'm not really a full on hardcore gamer who plays all day every day, but I do enjoy jumping into different games when I have time. Stuff like FPS games where you need quick reactions, sports titles for some fun competition, sniper missions that require precision, puzzle games to relax, and fighting games for that intense back and forth. I figured it was time to upgrade from my old standard controller, which was starting to feel worn out after a couple years.
The build quality feels solid and really nice. It's comfortable to hold, with a nice grip that doesn't slip even during longer sessions. I like how it connects wirelessly without any hassle too. It just pairs up with my Xbox Series X in seconds. The battery life has been good too. I have played for hours each day and only charged it once. No issues with lag or disconnection.
What I really like is the feel of the buttons and sticks. They are responsive, like when I'm in a FPS game dodging bullets or aiming at enemies, everything reaponds right away. No delay that throws me off. The triggers are adjustable, which is great for sniper games where I want that hair trigger pull for quick shots. I have not messed with all the customization options yet, but there are several. In sports games, like basketball or soccer, the paddles on the back let me remap buttons so I can jump or sprint without taking my thumbs off the sticks. That has made things smoother, especially since I'm getting a little older and I'm not as quick as I once was.
For fighting games, the d pad feels accurate and isn't mushy like some controllers. I can pull off combos pretty easily. Overall, it just feels premium in my hands, the weight is balanced, and it does not tire me out after playing for a bit. I have used it for about three or four days now, maybe 10 to 15 hours total, and everything is holding up well. The design looks clean too. I went with the black one, but there are other colors if you want something flashier.
I don't have any real complaints. Maybe the price is a bit high compared to a basic controller, but for what you get, I think it's worth it. Especially compared to the basic Xbox controllers. If you are like me and play a mix of games, whether hardcore or casually, I think this controller makes the experience better without overcomplicating things. I would definitely recommend it. If you are thinking about getting one, go for it. You will notice the difference right away.
