    Shoulder Already Loose

    I've had this less than 2 months and the left shoulder bumper is loose. If not for it being one piece with the right shoulder bumper (from what I've read) I assume it would have fallen out. It still works but messes with my confidence a little when playing Overwatch. I'm buying another one but this time getting the replacement protection through BB.

      Hi Lisa,

      We're sorry that you're experiencing issues with your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller. Since you've had it for less than two months, it should still be covered by its 90-day limited warranty. Please contact Xbox Support at the following link to get a repair or replacement: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/accessories/wireless-controller-broken-wont-work

      Hope that helps,

    great controller

    This controller is very well done! I love the customization's you can make. The paddles work great for fast paced action! Swapping out thumb sticks is an amazing feature and is a breeze to swap! Bumper buttons are easier to push and they don't seem to have any dead zone in them. Love the feel of it, and the grip is sweet! Thumb sticks are smoother when you move them completely around. To help compensate for the extra weight of the controller I would recommend putting in some Energizer Lithium AA batteries, they are lighter than the Alkaline batteries that come with the controller.

    Don’t Waste Your Hard Earned Money!

    Let me start by saying I really like this controller, when it works. My first controller, I had for about a year, then the grips started splitting from the controller and the right bumper broke (not just stopped responding but actually broke). My second controller I had for 1 month, the left bumper stopped working after it BROKE!!! Are you kidding me???? The third controller I also had for one (1) month when the left bumper again broke and the charging port did not consistently do its job. If playing with the charging cable in the port, it would activate the vibration in the controller for about 5 seconds straight, randomly and frequent. Then to top it off, on two occasions it locked up in game, making a loud buzzing noise through my tv and froze and crashed my game. I’m now on my fourth controller, and the only reason I have had 4 is thanks to getting the extended coverage I bought and had to REPERCHASE (pro-rated) every time. Best Buy should have waived the fee! I’m sorry, but a $150 controller should not fall apart. Until Microsoft can build a quality truly ELITE controller, don’t waste your hard earned money on this. The one controller I have had since I bought my Xbox One S is better built and consistently works.
