Introduction

January 2020 feels like a lifetime ago now, but that was the first time I really got to know about SCUF. CORSAIR had just acquired the premium gaming controller brand and CES 2020 was an introduction of SCUF to the PC media present there. We got to know about the various technologies SCUF had developed, patented, and even licensed to the likes of Microsoft to use in the Xbox Elite controllers. This was alongside the vast plethora of customization options available from SCUF for both the Sony PlayStation and Microsoft Xbox platforms. Of course, you could use those controllers on PC too, but I figured something more PC-centric would come up sooner than later now that SCUF was under the CORSAIR umbrella.


It took over three years but the SCUF Envision/Envision Pro controllers are out and claiming to be designed with the PC platform in mind. SCUF has also brought out updated controllers of the two primary consoles given the newer generations since our previous reviews and I expect to see quite a lot new here. In fact, I will point out that currently the Envision and Envision Pro are only available in two color options and for less than you would expect, which is already a good sign of things to come. The SCUF Envision is a wired-only controller while the Envision Pro adds CORSAIR Slipstream low-latency wireless connectivity on top of a few other quality of life improvements for a slightly higher cost. Both also gain support for CORSAIR's iCUE software customization and of course there is RGB lighting too, because why not with anything from CORSAIR in 2023? We'll go through the SCUF Envision Pro in detail today beginning with a look at the product specifications in the table below. Thanks to CORSAIR for providing a review sample to TechPowerUp!
