Ok so I purchased this controller the day it came out and there’s some things that I have to say about it. I’ve been apart of the Corsair ecosystem since 2019 basically using all their peripherals and software since then so this controller seemed like a no brainer to get for me. Fortunately for me in these 3 months that I’ve had it, there’s been no issues with it at all. The controller has worked perfectly in every instance I’ve used it and I play it wirelessly using the usb dongle, I’ve even dropped it a few times on hardwood and it still is working like it did fresh out the box. No stick drift still to this day and all the buttons feel nice. I use the controller daily, sometimes for a few hours to even nearly 10 on some days. From my experience this is honestly the best controller I’ve ever owned and I’d recommend it to everyone based on my experience but like with every single pro controller on the market everyone will have a different experience. Just like with the Xbox elite and all the issues people had with it, I never had any issues with mine and it’s been 2 years with it but I replaced it with the envision because of all the extra buttons and features. In my opinion this is the closest thing to the perfect pro controller available as of right now

[@Teddward]

When it works, I 100% agree!

[@AmishGeneral]

yap

[@coleystephens]

finally.. someone pointing out how terrible this software is... my controller is borderline unusable.

[@ink7034]

You tring it on a xbox or lol mone work like a beasttttt

[@iamnobodyy_]

same it’s so bad i can never use it

[@ilrvwylol]

literally cant use it on console its pc only@@ink7034

[@swooshmamba]

Is it really that bad I was contemplating on returning my battle beaver and copping the envision is the software that bad?

[@ilrvwylol]

@@swooshmamba if has it’s kinks but i’ve had mine for about a month with not many issues. i love it personally, if you can figure out the software it’s a great controller

[@KhyrisEidan]

What's better than the Scuf Envision Pro with the PS layout? That's really good and budget friendly? (Since the problems with this controllers seems to be bad).

[@user-kl7es6zk8n]

Do u still recommend the scud instinct pro ?

[@leendertvandervlugt7837]

Im also having problems with my backpaddles not getting recognized in fortnite how do fix this?

[@Karma-Larma]

Is it good for Tekken 8 or fighting games?

[@moejo__2251]

not true the program dosent have to be on

[@Sandoz2]

I had to tape both paddles because they snapped. Software issues also constantly affecting me. Also both triggers stopped working with the mouse click feature.

[@seanirl7738]

I’ve been having issues with my 8bitdo Pro2 controller and am just about giving up on it for similar problems that I just can’t solve. So I’m in the market for a new controller and was considering this Scuf Envision Pro and I’m so glad to have run across this video. These controller issues when you just want to sit down and game and not debug are annoying. I will be avoiding this controller. Thanks again for this video!

[@TG-it8zt]

It is a good controller... when you can use it, the software is just absolutely horrible so the controller disconnects regularly

[@HumansRuseless]

So far mine envision pro, hasnt given me issues yet and hope that it doesnt gives me any issues later in the future! Cuz i really have high hopes for it to work

[@Voklesh85]

What you say about iCUE is half true. Sure the software has some issues but it's not always a problem. I had it on my old PC and played very well for 6 years without any particular difficulties. Second aspect, you can use the joypad even without ICUE in the background. Just launch ICUE, set the most important functions, save the profile in the Scuf memory, close ICUE and launch the game. You may have to give up some complex macros but the main functions, such as calibration and function key assignment, will always be available.

[@parkercribbie4193]

I’ve had mine for less than two days. Not once did any of the profiles save to the controller. Tried hardware mapping from the controller and it kept reverting to default. After 6 hours trouble shooting over two days it now won’t register with the PC at all. Spending over $300 CAD. Needless to say I’m furious

[@daywizzle]

Is there a way to use rewasd instead of icue?

[@Teddward]

Not that I know of

[@vxnitiburner]

What does your MSU hat stand for? Also thx for the info trying to get a good pc controller that I can overclock

[@Teddward]

Second video I watch from you and this one is as good as the first one (which was the review of the 7Hz Salnotes Zero vs Truthear Crinacle Zero): Subscribed! As for the content of this video, I had bought a Scuf Instinct Pro a few days ago, but had to return it. It's an amazing controller not gonna lie on that, but the clicky triggers ended up as being a major disappointment for me because I was missing my follow up shots with marksman rifle (notably, the G2 in Titanfall 2 (yeah, there are still players playing on Xbox)). Other than that, I was appreciating the controller: great back buttons, great thumbsticks too and nice grip. Considering the Elite Series 2 has issues when I press LS in a diagonal position, I decided to buy my own parts to create my own Elite controller: Scuf grips, Scuf sticks, swappable faceplate, back buttons (Victor X set from eXtremeRate), and even clicky ABXY. Can't wait to receive my faceplate and back buttons to start that "soldering" project.

[@Maddog0608]

Absolutely love this controller. Best controller I’ve had yet. After latest update I haven’t had any of this controller I do 100% agree with needing to have the software open to use the other keys. But haven’t had any crashes sense the latest update

[@chronicmayhem]

I returned mine, non stop issues that were software related and it got to the point it killed the back buttons completely. I went through 3 of them then gave up. it sucks because when it did work it was awesome

[@xDelee]

Man if theres one person with 0 luck its you. Ive had mine for months. Not once have i had any issue you listed. Im also playing 60hrs a week and multiple games

[@Teddward]

😂😂 I don’t make a video about an issue unless I confirm multiple people have had the issue. With both videos I’ve made about Scuf claiming issues, multiple people inside and outside my friend group have confirmed similar issues

[@birdsoup777]

@@Teddward I'm having issues with weak rumble. My past experiences with iCUE is not good.

[@gorillionaire799]

Sounds like you didn’t update the software and firmware

Same

I don't want to jynx myself but I have had nothing but great things from this controller.

Received my controller yesterday and played about 2 hours of warzone on it. Already has stick drift. Had deadzone in the software at around 3-4 and in game warzone dead was also around 4. I would open tacmap and if I touched it slightly, it would drift left. Also when I would be walking. Very disappointing. I’m probably gonna trade it in today for a dual edge to not ever worry about quality. Nice review!

[@Teddward]

Slight hot take here, (a little) stick drift on your right stick is a good thing. Makes it where you aim assist is active all the time. That’s why I play with my right dead zone on 0. As long as it’s slight, it won’t effect when you are actually aiming

[@iamnobodyy_]

just trade in you got a bad controller it’s good just software makes it hard to use sometimes i have to reinstall software for my shit to work and this is coming from someone who had a broken B button on the controller sneer it back and only the controller back and got a whole new one with new joysticks charger and the rest that comes with it, it’s just software sucks bad

[@ditto022]

Muito obrigado Teddward, graças a seu video vou economizar tempo e dinheiro. Eu iria importar uma unidade para o Brasil. Seria muito caro, mas graças a teu video explicativo e falando as verdades que quase ninguém fala me ajudou a decidir e não perder dinheiro em um produto que não funciona. Obrigado amigo.

[@user-js5ck4xd4z]

Can you please drop an update if this software is getting fixed because I really need a new controller

[@ink7034]

Mine never crached hade the controller for a month now i use it everyday i think people jusr dumb

[@kookshow86]

lol, I just returned my second one after it completely stopped working. Not dealing with the mess either. I liked it when it worked. l3 and r3 felt bad tho

[@iaspectz4688]

I agree the software its terrible, but this is not true (2:30). If u want to use the controller like a the usual scuf controllers (whithout mappings, the "G" buttons) u can save a profile from the icue software (hardware mapping) and use it with the app closed.

[@gameshurt]

I fell for the Scuf Envision Pro's hype. I purchased the controller using isac's discount code. It has been 5 months and one back paddle (p4) has broken. I think the pack paddle are intentionally designed to brake because they're just way too thin to handle many presses. I will never purchase any controller again unless it has been dismantled and reviewed by a technician.

[@JerzaVeLi]

I had to return my controller because the software issues were so annoying. Only way to really use the controller was using the default settings

[@razorback1171]

Back buttons sometimes work sometimes don’t. Currently the triggers don’t work. Just sent mine in for repair.

[@jaytek5680]

All I want is 4 paddles. The sticks on a normal control have never been an issue. But ever since I used 4 mappable paddles I can’t play with out. Iv tried elites wolverines, and paddles you can add to a basic. Elite 2 my triggers and bumpers keep messing up. & wolverine the sticks are messing up or the a b x y buttons stop! The attachable paddles had crappy responses. Just want a stock controller with 4 mappable paddles!!! Was looking at scuff but then I see 10 videos like this!!

[@birdsoup777]

I bought it. An awesome well built controller ruined by iCUE. I did not realized it needed iCUE. If I knew prior, I would not have bought it.

[@SkylarPrentice]

cap my icue never crashed since i bought mine

[@nicholas1323]

u bought yours

[@jasonmartin3669]

Im glad im not alone, i bought one a few days ago seemed to be fine. then boom all the of the above happened. ive done everything videos have told me to fix issue. Corsair software is def the issue. once i try to go in firing range the gun wigs out and stats shooting random or buttons not working. took it back got another on an hour away from me. BOOM same damn issues. I loved the day it actually worked but damn fix the issue or im taking it back.

[@themab7]

The no shooting issue and complete failure of my mapped button is a huge problem! I also think its extremely uncomfortable when you use it in fast paced COD lobbies.

[@jcloud96]

purchased this in december and have not used it for months cause the software is trash. rather use a dual sense edge on PC since the profiles save

[@ThyUnit.]

Oh I’m glad I didn’t see this video before I bought mine, you probably would have scared me off the best controller I’ve ever used. I haven’t had any issues with software.

[@knightnight0237]

how is it holding up now?

[@nickdaddyd2578]

Just got this controller a few days ago and confirm it is 100% shit software. Spent 2 hours just trying to get my computer to recognize it as a controller input. And since then I have had the controller crash on me mid game multiple times. Tried doing the “hardware” mapping and closing Icue but then it’s just a brick. It only works if I have icue running. So sad cause the controller feels so good in my hand and runs nice if and when it works. Coming from a razer Wolverine ultimate thinking this was an upgrade but no considering return this and getting a newer razer

[@imaginillyar3572]

Why is it that some people have these issues but others don't?

[@Teddward]

bad software

bro i have to redownload the software every time i get on it’s so bad never works in game only keyboard and mouse binds tried reset and unplugging only thing that works is reinstalling software literally so bad like please fix your shit scuf 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻

[@pastafazool5951]

I bought 2 envision pro, 240$ and 230$ they are both shit and one had to be sent for repairs and came back in worse condition, my instinct is perfect.

[@gameslobby8869]

their software def has issues with more than a controller

[@Inkslanger69]

ABSOLUTELY DO NOT BUY THIS CONTROLLER. I was trying to find a way to possibly fix it before returning, but had the same issue where it just quit working 4 days into owning with light use. Mind you this is now 6+ months since the initial release so any issues should have been ironed out. I will not spend another dollar on a scuff product PERIOD.

[@mobbin4502]

I bought this and none of the software worked, the controller was unusable from the start. Crap controller -_-

I just the Bought it! And This is Misleading and Miss Information!!!!! YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE THE SOFTWARE RUNNING!!! You can quit the software and the controller runs AMAZING.. I’ve hear it all over the internet that the software needs to be running is a LIE! Best Controller out 2024 if u need help Dm here ASAP.

[@Teddward]

Lul ok

[@J90.s]

@@Teddward I’ve never drop a comment on KZbin before but a lot of people getting Mislead, you don’t have to run the software to use controller while mapping everything. I will drop a video soon to proof ya wrong. Just map everything you need to map and then quit the software get to game and let me know.
