Packaging and Accessories

One look at the product box and I knew SCUF retained its brand identity since this would have been black and yellow if it was a CORSAIR product. Instead, we get black and SCUF's orange accents on the packaging. There's the expected brand logo and product name on the front along with a render of the controller that seems cut-off for no reason. Salient features are also listed here with more on the back in multiple languages calling out the various parts of the controller. Specs and a list of contents are seen on the side and we see tear-off seals which keep the inner box safely tucked away during transit. A thicker cardboard box greets us now with the SCUF logo and marketing slogans all around. Open the box to see a QR code and URL taking you to a highly detailed and useful online quick start guide going over the setup, use, and customization of the controller. There's also a note reminding you to download iCUE first on your PC and then we get to the controller and the various accessories inside. SCUF does a good protecting the controller and the various other items to ensure a pristine unboxing experience.


I took everything out of the boxes to make it simple, although there is a safety, compliance, and warranty guide not pictured above. We do not get a carry/storage case or a fancy charging puck as with the Xbox Elite controller, with SCUF relying on USB Type-C for wired connectivity and charging the internal battery in the Envision Pro. As such, we get a branded USB Type-A to Type-C cable which comes with a female Type-C to male Type-C adapter. There's also the expected CORSAIR Slipstream 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity dongle provided here in addition to two spare thumbsticks with a rubber grip on top as well as two sets each of two replacement buttons/paddles.


Note that the controller comes with plastic wraps to be peeled off, however I will mention that the plastic cover that goes over the buttons and 3.5 mm audio jack on the front side has useful legends to indicate what those buttons do. So you may want to consider leaving it in place, at least initially, until memory kicks in or you re-map them in iCUE.
