    It is currently June 2024 and I purchased the controller in October of 2023. Very early on I noticed stick drift on one of the analog sticks. Now the RB button has to be pushed extremely hard to register, and even then it sometimes doesn't work. I take very good care of my things and the controller has never been dropped or damaged in any way. I play anywhere from 5-10 hours a week.
