Great feel in hands w/ high quality parts,build and design.
The buttons (of which there are plenty) all feel like they will never actually fail and the thumb-sticks are accurate and precise.

I've used a few of the big brand name ones from razer, rog, etc and this is definitely up there.
Just from opening it i could tell the quality was a lot higher than that of other brands.
Of course it doesn't compare to an actual licensed controller, but it's a dang good option still.
