Title: Best feeling controller on PC
Review: I've tried a lot of controllers, from the classic XBox One, the elite, all the way to budget options like the F310 and 8Bitdo. This is by far the best feeling controller I've used in terms of buttons and responsiveness (especially the instant triggers), and my other controllers have been controlling dust since.The "elephant in the room" is the software. If using this as a direct XBox One replacement like myself, the default mappings work fine and this isn't really an issue. However, most of the negative reviews are (justifiably) because iCue is pretty awful, but is more or less required especially if making heavy use of the "extra" buttons. Unfortunately, this isn't really forgivable given the price tag.Bottom line: for "simple" use cases, I strongly recommend SCUF controllers in general for anyone willing to pay the premium - they simply feel fantastic. However, for anyone intending to make heavy use of custom button mappings, I would look at alternative premium controllers.

Title: Great Hardware, Terrible Software
Review: I had high hopes for the SCUF Envision Pro Wireless Gaming Controller. The build quality is excellent, and it feels great in hand—solid, premium, and perfectly designed for competitive PC gaming. The paddles and G buttons are a fantastic addition in theory, and I was excited to integrate them into my gameplay.However, all of that potential is squandered by the absolutely awful iCue software. The software consistently fails to recognize the controller, causing the paddles and G buttons to malfunction or stop working entirely. I’ve spent countless hours troubleshooting, reinstalling drivers, and updating firmware, but the issues persist. Sometimes it works perfectly, but more often than not, I’m stuck with a controller that feels crippled by poor software support.For a device in this price range, the reliance on such an unreliable software ecosystem is incredibly disappointing. If SCUF could fix the iCue integration, this would be one of the best controllers on the market. Until then, it’s a frustrating experience that makes it hard to recommend.

Title: So far so good
Review: Play a lot of monster hunter. No one but I use the controller. Adult maintained. All buttons work fine. Software can be a little buggy at times but with a reset it works fine. Build quality is amazing.Read several reviews that they’ve had issues with theirs but mine has worked great so far.

Title: I want to like it
Review: I am disabled and this controller seemed like the ideal one hand friendly thing to get. The cost is very high but I saved up for it. I had to return the first one less than 2 weeks after buying because the A button kept sticking on the removable frame of the controller. I thought maybe it was a defect, asked for a return and had to drive 30 min to the nearest drop off. Got the new controller at the end of June, it is already breaking. This time it is the B button, it catches and extra presses ALREADY. For a near 200 dollar controller this is not okay. Ive had to replace two models, Ive been very very careful but after extreme use this thing just doesnt. Not worth full price, not for gamers that game daily or it will only last a few weeks before the buttons catch somewhere. Interesting design idea, but until they fix the button catching not worth the cost.

Title: Almost amazing
Review: The controller is a scuf. You know what you're getting there. The quality of the controller is great. My issue is with the iCue software. It is hot garbage and you're basically forced into using it. If you didn't have to use the software for the controller, this would be a no brainer. The software alone makes this one almost a pass... You can get the same quality out of the scuf for xbox. And still use it on PC. If you're just wanting a controller, I would probably go that route. If you NEED the extra buttons across the bottom, then good luck figuring out that software. If you do, you've got a good controller. If not, it's a good looking paperweight.

Title: After the update it works fine.
Review: I use this for competitive CoD MWIII and this controller work great after you mess around with the icue software. Trust me the software is a headache, but the controller is worth the hassle at least for me it was. There are videos on YouTube to help adjust the controller to your liking. Out the box it was weird for me i had to adjust the deadzone because the triggers would fire themselves and i had slight stick drift, but all of it was fixed and now i dont notice anything at all.

Review: All the bad reviews for this controller come from the launch when the software wasn’t on point and one guy saying he can’t use it on call of duty… the controller is incredible on call of duty, change your cable and use an USB 3.0 port.The mouse click buttons are really nice, the paddles are well placed. The only thing I personally don’t like is the side buttons, but I just remove their fonctions in the now, well working software.10 times better than the Elite. I have been using paddle controllers for 10 years (Advanced Warfare), it’s the best controller I ever had.
