  • Scuf Infinity 4PS vs Astro C40
This is a great controller so far. I am going to compare the Astro C40 to another high dollar controller I own and tell you why the Astro is better than the Scuf. I have a SCUF Infinity 4ps that I have now spent about $310 on. It originally cost me around $220 because I just had to get some custom colors, the extended hair triggers, the remappable back paddles, and a travel case with an extra set of thumbsticks. I could have saved 35 bucks by just getting all the addons but just standard old black for the shell and everything. I bought another set of thumbsticks for about 12 bucks after a couple months because I wanted to try a different height/shape combination. The scuf recently started having several problems (would not continue running when pushing thumbstick forward, triggers would stick for a couple seconds or fire intermittently, would occasionally just disconnect from PS4, even though it's plugged in). This controller is 7 months old, which is one month out of warranty. It has cost me almost $15 to send back to scuf and then another $60 to fix AFTER 7 MONTHS because it needs a "main board replacement" - which scuf has claimed is "not a defect" but also they "would not expect this to happen" (according to the CS rep I talked to). Since they have a 6 month warranty, he said I’m out of luck. So I’m pot committed and I have to spend the additional 60 bucks to get my controller back in working order, though I assume they would just ship it back to me broken for 10 bucks. When the scuf started acting up, I bought the Astro C40 because I didn’t know if I could use a DS4 while I waited for the scuf repair (2-3 week turnaround including shipping there). The back paddles become indispensable in FPS games when you get used to them. Once I held the Astro I was kicking myself for ever buying the scuf. It just feels like such a high quality product. The case almost feels soft, and it is slightly bigger than the scuf (which is basically a DS4). Comparing them next to each other, I don't know that it is actually much bigger if at all, but it feels slightly bigger. You don’t have to spend extra money to get remappable back paddles or hair triggers. Even though the Astro comes with what appears to be very in depth software, I haven’t even installed it yet because this thing is so good out of the box. The slightly larger size is great – the DS4 always felt just a tad skinny to me, though if you have tiny hands this may be a negative. I have started greatly enjoying my main game again because I don’t have to deal with the frustration of the random walking when I should be running, or the occasional burst of fire that gives away your position. For anyone who has not played a FPS with back paddles on your controller – it does take some getting used to. I had to force myself to use them, and it probably took a good week or two before I stopped using my right thumb to press the face buttons (I mostly use them for Jump and open/pick stuff up in FPS’s). Having the ability to keep looking around while jumping or looting is something you can’t live without once you have gotten used to it. While I learned on the scuf, transitioning to the C40 was no problem. The position of the back buttons is very similar, even though the scuf uses paddles and the c40 has molded in buttons. The Scuf paddles require a slightly longer reach with your middle fingers. Some Pros/Cons for the two controllers: Scuf Infinity 4PS Pro Pros: Feels exactly like a DS4 if you like that feeling. You can use the ps4 button to turn the PS4 on, Sony does not let 3rd party controllers do this, and apparently SCUF uses a DS4 in some way? Does have the same physical capabilities as the C40 (back paddles / hair triggers / interchangeable thumbsticks), which are great improvements over the standard DS4 You can get extended trigger covers for R2/L2, but I’m not sure that they add much value. Cons: Feels exactly like a DS4 if you don’t like that feeling. Extra money to remap the back paddles. It takes a little magnetic key, so don’t lose it. Extra money for hair triggers, which have to be adjusted manually using a little hex key after pulling off the trigger caps. Extra money for a travel case and extra sticks, which does hold those small accessories in a jumbled compartment area Switching trigger stops on/off requires a small hex key, though you can do it with your fingers if they are small enough. Back paddles feel a bit flimsy, as they use a lever action to depress the button. The back paddles are also a bit longer reach with your middle fingers. I've had times where my hands get tired and cramped when using this, I have no experienced the same with the C40. I made the mistake of getting a white shell, which has started to turn yellow and has started peeling. Apparently very unreliable based on my experience. Astro C40 Pros: Movable stick positions if you prefer an xbox layout. Also easy to replace a stick module yourself if they do wear out. Remap back buttons easily with built in controls on the controller. Switches on the controller to easily enable/disable short throw triggers (trigger stops). Switch on the controller to swap between saved profiles that you can set up in the software (stores 2 profiles). Back buttons are built in buttons, where scuf paddles feel like they have a little flex. Makes me hope the DS5 will come with back buttons standard. Comes with short/long concave and domed sticks. USB connection is recessed into the controller to prevent it from wiggling/bending. Comes with a custom fitted case for accessories and everything. Detailed software if you like to customize various aspects of how your controller functions, though you don't have to use it. Cons: Slightly more expensive. You can technically get a scuf for cheaper, but it will not have the ability to remap the back paddles or adjust the triggers. For a comparable controller (remappable buttons, adjustable triggers, included case, replacement sticks, the Astro is only about $15 more than the scuf. Some of the C40 pictures and even the molded case seem to indicate that it comes with a round d-pad module or cover, but it does not. You cannot turn the PS4 on from the controller. The verdict: Overall, if I could go back in time and get the Astro over the Scuf I would have definitely done it. I have only played with this for about a month, but I have yet to discover anything that would make me prefer the scuf. If that changes I will update this review. Everything that the scuf does, the Astro does better except for remotely turning on the PS4. We will see if it stands the test of time – but I could wear out 3 replaceable thumbstick modules in 7 months and still have it be cheaper than the repaired scuf. ... show more

  • WOW Quality controller, unique design and total customization...along with the total cool factor
Update: At just after the 6 month mark the "X" button started to fail... intermittent connection when pressed. Astro warranty department replaced the entire controller with no hassle. This says more about the company than any other factor. Now they are 5 gold stars! I love astro and they love their customers! I'm not a "tournament" player but my wife would say I think I am, and says I play way too many hours (maybe 2 hours a day each evening and more on the weekends :)) I can't help it, I was a teenager when the video arcade in the early 80's became a thing and have never been able to let it go! I started with the Magnavox Odyssey 2 and currently have the PS4 (and almost everything in between along the way). I've seen and used lots of controllers. While I did take the Sony path of late, I can appreciate the Microsoft system and have a few of them just for the exclusives, but it was never my favorite and I think it was the controller layout. Thus began my struggle with the symmetric vs asymmetric styles. I prefer the symmetric layout but I can't reallly explain why, habbit/comfort level maybe. I am asymmetric curious though. I hear that's ok nowadays :) I needed a new controller and really just wanted a well-built item. I don't need 4 paddles under the controller as I would not know what to do with them all, I like things simple so these features would be interesting to dabble with but not required. It was looking like I would have to make a decision between the symmetry...until I found this one. Interchangeable stick and dpad...what? No way! I could have it both ways and experiment all I wanted. This feature ended my month long search and was the deciding feature. When it arrived, it was even better in my hand, yes it's bigger than the DS4 but I have large hands so that was a selling feature not a drawback. Yes it was heavier, but not too much that I can't hold it for a few hours...just enough to make it scream quality. The rubberized surface treatment is nice compared to the hard plastic of the DS4. However i'm adding "dragon grip" to the smooth rubber parts (see pics). The software to program the minute functions is cool but I haven’t got to that point yet. The first hour with it in my hand was a little foreign but its like a new girlfriend, it was both exciting and a little awkward for a moment, then the love affair began. By hour two we were deeply in love and I don’t know how I lived before her. I change the module positions, tried different stick heights and styles. I ended the night liking the asymmetric loadout with the tallest sticks. This is an exciting time! I wanted to address one concern I saw others had. A few mentioned they experienced stick drift when moving the module positions and resetting would not solve it. I experienced this too. Turns out if the stick/dpad modules aren’t perfectly seated, this occurs. I discovered this when I noticed the cover piece was not perfectly flush like it was originally. I knew I had not seated it correctly. I reseated them and the cover was flush again, drift was gone. So its not in the module if you notice this, its in the seating of the module if you move it. I can't wait to get home to see my new girlfriend tonight! High recommendation from a life long video game fanatic! Best I've ever seen and I'm glad I made this the one! It's a big commitment... but full of benefits! Also works perfectly out of the box with PC games... steam and Microsoft... both worked flawlessly on my Alienware laptop... 2 Week Update: Battery life is way longer than the standard DS4. I charge it like one a week, overnight. All parts still work and feel perfect. Have now used their software to fine tune the L2 R2 for COD with hair triggers and changed the travel distance of the sticks sensitivity, mapped jump and slide to the back buttons and stored it all in the second save position on the controller so I simply throw the switch and the entire loadout changes making it easy to switch between games on the fly in literally .5 seconds....so so so cool!. I love this controller more and more every day. I'm back to the symetrical layout but its fun to have the option to try it back and forth. It also feels so good in the hand now...especially with my dragon grip added. You must get this controller if you love gaming! ... show more
