Pros & Cons
Pros
The d-pad is smooth and registers the inputs very well.
The 6 * in the front increases the options by a ton, specially the vs activations. The button mapping is also a game changer once you learn how to work it, as the default layout isn't the most intuitive. The face * are sized well.
Cons

It tends to crack and your directional inputs begin to trail off

Simple enough when setting up it can auto fire continuously without button pressing which is a weird feature to have i guess unless you are playing some mobile game that requires auto clicking

If you are going to play specific fighting games that require timing like street fighter and mortal kombat you wont want to use the turbo because it can mess up your time sensitive inputs to do your combos
