      Hello there,

      We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2, but sorry to hear there's an issue with the B button. Every new Xbox controller comes with a 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty from Microsoft. If it's still within the warranty period, we recommend contacting Xbox Support for assistance here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,

    A little small for my hand but it feels amazing. Love how grippy the thumb sticks feel and how good the triggers are.

    I took a chance and caved for a $180 controller and it came right out of the box with stick drift. It totally ruined my experience with these kinds of overpriced controllers.

    I bought this controller because it was open box and in excellent condition. Had it a few weeks. Day 1 I had to clean the joysticks off because they had something on them when I opened it up. Played with it one week and had to clean the x button with isopropyl alcohol as it started sticking when I was about to play tomb raider. Was buying it this way cheaper, yes, was the controller in excellent condition when I bought it? No. I was probably better off buying a brand new one.
