SCUF Omega – Features and Specifications
Speaking about the specifications, the new SCUF Omega performance controller offers a total of 28 inputs, including 11 additional customizable inputs consisting of 4 rear paddles, 2 side buttons, and 5 G-Keys. These customizable controls are aimed at helping players perform actions such as jumping, reloading, or sliding without needing to remove their thumbs from the thumbsticks.
There are also two different ways offered to users for remapping these inputs. One can be done directly through the controller itself, while the other can be accessed via the SCUF Mobile App that is available on both iOS and Android platforms. Notably, the companion app also lets users create and manage multiple profiles, fine-tune trigger and thumbstick response curves, configure SOCD settings for fighting games, recalibrate thumbsticks, manage audio controls, monitor battery status, update firmware, and personalize the RGB lighting strip on PC as well.
Coming to the hardware features, the SCUF Omega packs Omron mechanical switches across its Instant Triggers, D-Pad, and Action Buttons. Adjustable Instant Triggers are also part of the package, enabling users to switch between faster click-based controls or full analog trigger input depending on the type of game being played. Furthermore, it also features Endurance TMR Thumbsticks that make use of non-contact magnetic sensing technology for improved durability and reliability. Users can also choose between concave or domed thumbstick designs in short or tall heights based on their preference and playstyle.
