Coming from somebody that has an extreme rate rise remap 4 kit and 2 scuf reflexes, there are advantages to both. The reflex is a lot more “clicky” or mechanical type feeling and also ergonomically better with the back buttons. The rise remap 4 is a “soggier” click on the back making them more difficult to use in a rapid succession. I love the new charm focus kit but it is bulky and will take some getting used to. The turbo and macro functions are very good I will have to say. If you don’t need those two stick to extreme rate. As I said I have 2 reflexes both have been sent in multiple times for sticky back buttons. And you have to spam them to get them to unstick. This doesn’t work out well in game gun fights. They’ve both been sent back multiple times under warranty and once out of pocket, both still have sticky back buttons and I’m refusing to send them in again. Let me know if anybody here has the same experience.

@@GearsAndTech there are no 3 party controllers. the one reason is because sony encrpyted the dualsense. so ps5 games can only be played with offcial dualsense controllers. if third party controlers would be alowed then sony has to share the encryption with other companies. Sony suposedly encrypted the dualsense for ps5 games so developers would use the new haptic feedback and other features in there games. if they allowed controllers that do not have these feautures, then developers would not make use of them in htere games as much. atleast that is the reasoning sony uses to explain the dualsense encryption.

Hello nobody said it wasn't a Sony controller lol. Scuf had to pay licensing fees but now have created their own so it's much cheaper, sure it was expensive but it was customised specially with the mouse click triggers. I have a Scuf Reflex FPS but after a year it has stick drift so I just upgraded to a Sony Daulsense Edge. I didnt even know about their own new controller the Scuf Envision which I would really like as it's comes with 1000hz polling rate two extra buttons on the sides so 6 extra buttons compared to Sony 2 extra that are always accessible and usable for gaming. The replacable thumb sticks are so good though. I don't like having to use hidusbf and DS4 windows just to get 1ms. Hidusbf on it's own doesn't overclock to 1ms I think it's due to the software not supporting the controller properly, it shouldn't have the 2K an 8K options. 8K isn't as fast as hidusbf at 1K with DS4. Sadly DSX doesn't seem to push the controller refresh rate up to 1K (1ms, 0.5-1.0ms) like DS4 does even with hidusbf at 1K or 8K. I had to get my hands on a PS5 to save profiles so I could use it with DS4 to get that faster response time. If you don't care about 1ms or cant tell the difference just use DSX to bind the pedals to whatever buttons you want on the Sony Dualsense Edge for PC use.

Sony does not allow third party controllers, because then other people would make controllers that do not have haptic feedback and adaptive' triggers. Sonyt wants developers to use these controller features in their games. That is why they encrypted the dualsense for alll ps5 games. Breaking the encreption is offcourse illegal. So if sony decides to keep the arrangement this way, then there will never be official thirdparty controllers. Or the may in the feuture allow company's to make a controller if they pay sony money so they would get acces to the encyption code/keys.

But what's the quality of the internal back paddle buttons mounted on the battery tray? Is it just the same kind of dome switches that broke on my PS4 Scuf housed under those tiny metal boxes with the button nubs sticking out? Or are they some kind of good quality switches, like what Corsair would use in their keyboards? Those dome switches were definitely a problem for many people with the pre-Corsair Scuf controllers. I'm just a casual gamer and one of mine broke right as the warranty expired. And I'm not paying Scuf (probably at least the price of a Sony controller from what I hear) to fix a part that is essential in making it what I paid a premium price for and should have a lifetime warranty for that reason. (and you can't find replacements for them either) This is something that people considering a Scuf should know before they make that call. I know I wouldn't buy a Scuf again without knowing this and a better warranty from them. My Dualshock 4 Back Button Attachment works perfectly and has already outlasted a controller. And I also did the eXremerate metal 2 paddle mod to my Dualsense controller and am eXtremely pleased with it. (pun obviously intended) My advice is to go with the much better value and ease of replacement of the eXtremerate mods and give Scuf a pass. p.s. - It's also kind of telling that Scuf used the original Dualsense PCB, the 010 version that Sony has already switched from to the 020 version well before the Reflex became available. Not a good sign.

Can you swap the thumb stick module in the scuf? I mean the whole module like in the PS5 Edge. Can it be removed by perhaps melting the shouldering? My Scuf Reflex FPS has a damaged right thumb stick after 1 year. Not only does it have stick drift but it also has random jitters that randomly have up inputs when just touching it. I did just buy a Sony Dualsense Edge for that very reason but I am curious if I can still fix my scuf? I bought the scuf because I knew it was a PS5 controller as I wanted to overclock it to 1000hz as my Xbox Elite 2 cannot be overclocked as it's hardware limited. Xbox controllers can't be successfully overclocked and are locked at 124hz. Sony Playstation controllers come at 250hz but can be overclocked to 1000hz.

Depends what you're asking I guess. The caps will fit into a regular ps5 controller, however you can't just slide them off the regular controller once the trim is off. You need to pull the controller apart more to swap thumb sticks

@@GearsAndTech Thanks for the recommendation but I have my heart set on the Scuf Reflex sticks. From my research it looks like the issue will come from the front clip off shel, so I have ordered some larger friction rings designed for Xbox Elite (apparently they fit) and then drill the holes for the faceplate larger. I'll keep you updated when it's done to let you know if it was a success or not.

If I was doing this I would shave the main controller shell bigger then so you can pop the Thumbsticks right out by only pulling the top plate off in the future. You won't have any issues then and should not need to shave anything off the top trim plate so it keeps the factory look

That's weird. Only thing I can think is they soldered the wires for r3 and l3 backwards. East fix is just cut those wires and tape them so they don't touch anything and hope you don't want to remap the back buttons to r3 or l3
