Just some tips, ive had one of these for 6 years or so. The battery will go at some point, not scuf's fault, all dualshock 4's suffer from this. When that happens, Get an upgraded 2000 mah one from a reputable seller like adafruit. This will double the battery capacity from original. To extended it even more, you can go in an de-solder the rumble motors that EAT battery even when no being heavily used. I liked the extra weight too but it got old fast, and the battery dying faster did too, so sacrifices were made. Last tip, hall sensor joystick modules exist for these. When they inevitably get stick drift, as all scuf's eventually do, consider swapping out to some hall effects to extend their life. Takes a little soldering and some rather annoying yet simple calibrating and you have yourself stick drift proof joysticks, that is until your tension spring goes out but that wont happen anytime soon, id say 7 years+ of usage instead of the couple months you'll get with normal potentiometer sticks. That's all, enjoy it while it last, and then onto future proofing it (or option 2 go bitch on reddit about scuf, not that they dont deserve it lol but yall keep buying their shit!) great controller though.
Hey, great video! I do own a repair shop in germany specialized in controller and console repairs and I can safely say - Scuf is by far the worst when it comes to build quality! I repaired every controller you can think of (Scuf, Aim, BattleBeaver, Elite (pretty bad too), ... you name it) and Scuf does so many cheap modifications for their parts to fit etc. so I am surprised yours didn't fall apart yet. :D The High Performance Grip is made of the same material like their sticks. This will break down very quick if you play much. Their stick modules are oem alps, so just like sony. But they might drift faster due to the fact of the rubber from the sticks could make it into the modules. You can't change the sticks with oem sony ones because they'll grind on the outside of the housing. They use cheap metal domes for the paddles to click, which often break resulting in unresponsive paddles or completely broken. They even invented a security screw which is almost impossible to open, if you don't know how. There are no bits for it. There is so much more about their poor build quality but to keep it short - I would highly recommend not to buy a Scuf. BattleBeaver seems solid so far, although they drill their back button holes a little too big.
Welche Firmen kannst du noch empfehlen ? Hatte mit Aimcontroller eigentlich immer gute Erfahrung und wollte deren neuen Controller mit Hall Effekt probieren. Finde die von scuf sehen auch gut aus vorallem der alte Impact.
@@nyxo_wzI’m not german, but if ur looking for a great controller look into this ”Razer Wolverine v3” it’s coming out next month, all their controllers i’ve had before have been incredible.
got my scuff infinity 4 years ago when black ops cold war came out since then i’ve consistently put 10-12 days with each cod release since then no issues aside replacing the thumb sticks they’re great controllers for the average player most of the comments you see are from people who are legitimately pro players or people who spend to much time in comments
I will say, I would rather get a HexGaming, Battle Beaver, or HYPR controller over both of these controllers mentioned. Buttons are better than paddles, I own a SCUF Impact PS4 still; I use it as a backup for my Beaver. Regardless, SCUF was not as bad as people think during this era. The thumbsticks were bad, yes. People fail to realize that you cna change out the sticks lol. Supports PS5 Reflex thumbsticks, ps4 sticks, xbox sticks, etc. Anyways, solid review!!!
I use mine only on the weekends to play call of duty warzone. After six months they start having problems stick drifting. Six months warranty it’s what you get. They charge me $90 for it. All I can say, is be prepared to spend because they do break a lot.
Excuse me I highly recommend not buying Scuf Controllers I bought the Scuf. Reflex fps two weeks after buying it The controller came down with really bad thumbstick drift. and it is no normal thumbstick drift Y'all it is unplayable and both joysticks had thumbstick drift y'all this was my second Scuf ever and I promise it will be my last and I did all the stuff you were supposed to do to fix it and more but it still didn't work y'all I couldn't even play my game at all it was so bad Y'all don't be dumb like me and buy a Scuf cuz a RUclipsr said to get one it would be good Scuf controllers are very bad y'all I'm not even trying to sound like a hater or hat but y'all the Scuf controller was the worst controller I ever played with and I played with a controller with bad thumbstick drift but never one as bad as the Scuf Reflex fps I pad 350$ for it and wishing I never bought it or wishing I could get a refund end the end I was just very disappointed.
I use a scuf instinct pro controller and always want to attempt to get used to using a DS4 layout controller but can never seem to enjoy using it. Probably because it makes my hands feel very awkward
ive had a few of the regular infinities (those reg paddles) and the paddles broke kinda fast, just from watching you click the reactive paddles tells me not to get this one and stick to my PS5 Reflex
As someone who is not a content creator or like a pro, do you still think this is worth getting for my birthday as I don’t really know what else to get. Also, is the emr needed and are trigger stops needed. What do you think I should do?
If you like playing FPS games I think it’s worth it. I think the Digital Tap Triggers are better than the ones with trigger stops but only for FPS games.
def get digital tap bumpers and triggers its the best part of the whole controller and u dont need the emr if u want ur right paddle circle and left x..thats how i play and thats how they come default
I was thinking of getting a nebula/galaxy scuf, I mainly want it because of the design rather than the paddles. Do you think it’s worth getting a scuf or just a different custom controller? I think the design on the scuf is better but not sure if it is worth the extra money. What do you think I should do? It would be a gift for my birthday.
Hi, I’ve had my scuf for a few weeks now but I just recently lost the little screwdriver thing to change the sensitivity of my triggers, and I think it’s in my sofa but I cannot find it. What do you think I should do?
@@JZimzGaming ok, how long do you think it takes to get used to them? And is there a way to disabled the face buttons but enabling the paddles only? So it forces me to only use the paddles?

235$ for a controller is insane. Does anyone agree? Scuff added 2-4 buttons on the back so the customer pays 235$ for that 😅
he got add ons it’s normally under 170 before tax i just bought same kind
It is crazy his is fully decked out but still

Thos scuff controller work great I had one about a year and it still works great all you have to do is take Care of it

ngl this channel hella underrated
I heard the sticks have a bit less tension than a default PS4 controller, is that true?
I’m not sure! I’m coming from Xbox so this is my first time on ps4. I’ll have to try a stock one next.
@@JZimzGaming does it feel as light as Xbox sticks?
does anyone know if the scuf reflex thumbsticks or any scuf thumbsticks for that matter are compatible with the default ps4 controller?
Are the face buttons and d pad mechanical clicky?

@@JZimzGaming I mainly play fortnite, what do you think?
def get digital tap bumpers and triggers its the best part of the whole controller and u dont need the emr if u want ur right paddle circle and left x..thats how i play and thats how they come default
Would this not work on a PS5? Wired or wireless

Might not be worth it for the design only. You could go with the cheaper GameSir G7 and paint the faceplate
Great review! I have the exact same controller. Just an FYI even though Scuf don't offer hall effects they are compatible because I have them in mine.

You can just rotate it with your nails
Bought one and after 3-4 weeks one of the pentiometers went bad, and as of lately it will randomly disconnect, very disappointed
That’s just your luck mine works fine
@@Konig977 I hope yours drifts soon 🫦
Does it work with any magnet or is the emr needed?
I have not confirmed this. Best bet is to use the EMR
What’s the best way to get used to paddles?
Just gotta play with them for a bit! It takes a little time to get used to
@@JZimzGaming ok, how long do you think it takes to get used to them? And is there a way to disabled the face buttons but enabling the paddles only? So it forces me to only use the paddles?
so this controller odes not work with ps5
It works on ps4 games on the ps5. So R6S and most COD games work with the ps4 controller but ps5 exclusive games like Spider-man 2 wont work
@@ugotvectored1628would modern warfare 3 work
only the ps4 version on ps5@@AnnoyedBoatLake-cs7np
