PDP Victrix Pro BFG Wireless Gaming Controller for Playstation 5 / PS5, PS4, PC, Modular Esports Gamepad, Remappable Buttons, Customizable Triggers/Paddles/D-Pad/Fightpad, PC App, Black

Recently, I purchased a Victrix BFG Pro. I was skeptical, especially with it lacking vibration. I was borderline not considering it, mostly just because of that. After a few articles showing that Victrix will be adding Hall Effect Sticks in Q1 2024. Price being 40 (USD) for a pair. That's incredible pricing. So awesome upgrade. This matters because I also have a SCUF Instinct Pro Wireless (worst), Razer Wolverine Ultimate (my backup), and my new baby Victrix BFF Pro. Stock, the SCUF comes with no Hard Case. Just the basic swaps for D pad and Sticks. I had to purchase the Hard Case EXTRA, for like 40 or 50, I believe. It came with an additional cord, some additional stick top. And other little stuff. Starting left to right again, The hard case is a nice color grey and the inside is textured and looks great. It's the thinnest of the cases and for one that was paid extra in addition to the most expensive controller of the bunch at 200$ (prices are rough memory estimates). The case for the Victrix is ever so slightly thicker and only noticable if you have them side by side. Both would protect a drop in almost all cases. Inside, the Victrix has a top pocket for the EXTREMELY NICE Purple braided cord (type C to Standard USC). Also has stacked Styrofoam layers of tools and replacement parts, which includes the additional fighting pad that can be swapped with the right joy and button combo pad on the right side of the controller. The next up is the VERY sturdy and thick case. Inside is the pocket up top for the cord and the bottom houses the replacement D pades and sticks (which are held on by high power magnets and is the best setup of the three). With the information given, you'd be understandable in thinking that the SCUF was the worst of the bunch. In price? Sadly, yes. In usability? Hell no. The SCUF is my favorite to use. The reverse button placement is perfect *FOR ME*. Durability wise? Horrible, don't buy, trash, borderline a scam. Not only is SCUF already known for that, it turns out this first of the better QC lot was in fact, crap. Within the first 3 months I had to have it in for a faulty button and faulty bumper. Not a quick process since it's inconvenient to have no controller. Thankfully I'm a nerd lol. Got it back and all was golden. Then after a few months, the same button and bumper started not registering clicks either. Not every time. Just 1/10 I'd say. But you would be shocked how much is messed you up lol. Now, sitting at 14 months with it? Not great at all. 2 buttons. 1 bumper. 1 trigger. All faulty. Never dropped. No liquid anything. Kept literally in a hard case whenever it wasn't in use. I play a few hours a week total so this is minimal use. Terrible product. They will fix it. But I gotta pay for shipping and the full repair. So I'm stuck. Worst 400$ I've ever spent on controller and extras. The Victrix is so awesome. I have medium to medium/large hands lol. Not huge. They are on the CUSP of being too small. Which makes them perfect for me, but it might not be for my bigger brethren out there. I have not noticed the lack of vibration a SINGLE TIME. I even tried to pay attention for it and still didn't notice it. So I guess that's neat lolol. It feels light yet sturdy. It's what you would want for long sessions. Light weight and upgradable/repairable. Victrix doesn't sell replacements of anything yet, that I've noticed. But everything points to Q1 for the start of all that. I've been XBOX my whole life so my brain is struggling with the PlayStation symbols. Sell the XB setup for extra. Just a different single paddle. I'd be so happy. This is my go to by a mile. The Razer Wolverine Ultimate is a wonderful controller. The button placement on the back is TERRIBLE. That's all personal preference so I won't knock it for it. Build is solid. Can't speak for other products of theirs. It's very heavy in comparison. By a chunky margin. But it works great. Feels great. Way cheaper in price but not quality at all. They did a great job with that line. So I'd saySCUF - 6Vicxtrix - 9Razer - 7.5/8

I am an Xbox player who has been wanting to move to PS5, but I find the Dualsense extremely uncomfortable for my smaller hands. This Victrix controller was the perfect solution and I can play for hours without the pain I was getting from the standard Dualsense.Things to know:-No haptics or adaptive triggers. Not a big deal for me, but some people might care.-Some reviewers said it felt cheap. This was not my experience, though it is quite light (a pro for me).-Can’t turn on your PS5. Again, not a big deal for me to just push a button on the console, but some people might care.The only actual con: It has kind of a weird plastic smell that does rub off on my hands. It’s fading with time, but was very noticeable at first. Otherwise, this controller has been amazing.

I nervously purchased this as a renewed like-new condition product. I prefer the offset layout and additional back paddles for fast pace games like Returnal which made my thumbs sore on the PS5 DualSense. Thus, the main criteria for purchase was ergonomics for my aging hands.To that end the Vitrix delivers thanks to its customization. The tension on the sticks is slightly more than the PS5 DualSense. I appreciate how focused the controller is by stripping away rumble, speaker, and mic as those features are distracting and annoying in certain cases.I have dozens of controllers and this is quite comparable to the Xbox Elite Series 2 in size and build. For the renewed price I find immense value in the Vitrix. Should it have come with the Hall Effect modules instead of being a $40 accessory? 100% yes, but I expect long term durability. The Vitrix Control Hub is straightforward for firmware updates/customization and manually switching the back paddles is equally so.Lastly, the faster 2.4GHz connection to the PS5 is something I appreciate vs Bluetooth. It’s not placebo and response is a touch quicker. Because of the negative reviews I was reluctant to purchase the Vitrix but glad I managed expectations and am finding this to be a delightful addition to a much needed option in the PS5 lineup against the Edge and Scuff alternatives. My runs have immediately become more effective in Returnal. There’s more precision to my surprise.

This controller is honestly really really good but it does require a learning curve imo. the paddles are perfectly placed, the joysticks are sensitive and feels really smooth to use, the dpad is great (once changed bc the default one feels like you could press the wrong direction like when you click left it’s too possible to accidentally click bottom left), the battery life is impressive and the customizable modules make it a no brainer. BUT the build quality is a little cheap feeling like it feels like if you were to drop it from a reasonable height, you might wanna use the warranty they give you but beyond that it’s a good pro controller.
