The Corsair subsidiary, which specializes in the production of high-end controllers, is entering the market for PC peripherals.
Popular among professional gamers, SCUF announces the release of its first controller specifically for PC gaming. The SCUF Envision is available in two versions (Classic and Pro) priced at €149.99 and €199.99 respectively.
SCUF quality, now on PC
While the manufacturer’s previous controllers have always been somewhat PC compatible, the Envision and Envision Pro are specifically designed for PC gaming. This leads to the notable presence of five fully configurable “G” keys that can be assigned to any Windows shortcut. For example, taking a screenshot or starting a video recording.
Another key advantage that is rarely seen elsewhere: the presence of two additional side buttons. They are accessible with the index finger of each hand and can of course be configured as desired using the Corsair iCue software. Software that also allows you to customize the RGB display of high-end controllers.
Finally, on the back we find the essential paddles. Two on each side, which in turn can be configured to replace a different button on the controller. For example, sprinting or sliding without having to press the control sticks.

Two models for more versatility
So what are the differences between the classic model and the Envision Pro? A USB-C cable is included with both controllers, but only the Pro model allows wireless gaming with the included dongle. Additionally, the Envision Pro offers a better grip and mechanical switches for a touch closer to a mouse click.
The highest quality controller also features a switch located under the triggers to shorten their movement, improving responsiveness in the game. Details, certainly, but those that can make the difference for demanding players.
Both controllers have interchangeable side buttons. On the other hand, replacement domes for the joysticks are only included with the Envision Pro.
