SteelSeries Stratus XL might come closer than others, but in the end, it's still a loose-feeling, lightweight controller that I believe is priced about thirty dollars too high for what it offers
The feel is so good, the weight is perfect for me, the buttons were fantasticly exact, the joystik soft like they are supposse to be
The buttons have a great feel and the triggers are smooth.
Decent build quality, buttons feel good, I really like the matte finish and heavy feel, but I do wish it had a rechargeable battery in it.
Great feel to the finish as well as the buttons and analogs

This is a high quality controller that suffers from very poor documentation
Trigger keys are very poor quality - on my first unit the left trigger was overly sensitive so it would register presses just sitting on the table, while the right one could never reach 100% press no matter how hard I pressed
Quality of the product was great, I was not a fan of the plastic used for the controller, which is my own bias.
Controller fits good in the hands and it looks like it has good build quality, but triggers do not work at all
But once you get it going the build quality is fantastic

The only gripe, and it is generally a minor one is that the R1 and L1 buttons feel lousy.
It work great for a while but than the select button stopped working when pressed, and when I downloaded the SteelSeries Engine it only made the select button work half of the time and when using an emulator the other buttons would mess up too when there was no problem before
Compared to the little bit of xbox controller usage I have, it rests in your palms about the same, but I think the actual feel of the controller is superior and the buttons feel less plasticky, which is good
It feels very nice in your hands - weighty, good button placement, buttons feel good.
The grip feels nice, buttons have a nice bump to them, all is good

Riptide GP2, Space Marchalls, Dungeon Hunter 5, Dead Trigger 2, Asphalt 8, every game I tried on my Android phone worked well with the SteelSeries controller
it worked great up until the triggers got super touchy and sensitive, many virtual rounds of ammunition watsted without me even pulling the trigger
The Left and Right triggers and bumpers were highly sensitive, but once you decrease the controller's trigger and bumper sensitivity it no longer response to any input from the triggers and bumpers
Triggers when not pressed show that right trigger is pressed a little, changing dead zone does not help
Neither left nor right trigger work on Windows 8 machine.

It does makes things easier with Gear VR, too, since I did not have to hold my right hand up all the time to use controls on GearVR, which gets annoying quickly
Either it does have a connectivity issue or the game/GearVR combo doesn't have full connectivity.
Works decent as an android controller, does not work with windows 10.
For the few minutes it does work it struggles for control, I cannot use my keyboard while using this controller, which is a huge pain for game slike GTAV and GR Wildlands where i swap to keyboard to shooting portions
Seems really well made, does not feel cheap in the hands, very pleased with them.

Synced it up - works flawlessly, no input lag, felt natural and great
This control requires 3rd party software (only wireless controller I own that does)It just causes massive spasms in my games, randomly throwing my steering or aim to the left and right, the right bumpers don't work, this controller has severe input lag, up to a 1/2second
However, after only 3 months, the controller is not as accurate or as fast as it used to be, that is why I'm getting the warrantee this time
I've used this on my Samsung tablet when playing emulators it's very nice, comfortable, and comparable to current gen console controllers and no noticeable input lag
The final straw, though, was that the analog shoulder buttons would sometimes not work at all, sometimes work as if the maximum was set to 30%

have a overly expensive pc with an overly expensive bluetooth card especially for gaming and this controller simply does not work
The only problem I had was with using it on a windows 10 pc
You are better off getting a cheap 10 dollar PC controller from a no name brand then spending the money on this for a PC.
until there is an update that fixes the latency problem it's almost unusable on a Windows 10 PC.
My wife prefers the Xbox One controller for most games on our windows 10 PC
