    Seems like these controllers are made to wear out after a few months.

    Decided to purchase the PS5 and the X Series this year to take advantage of both features each system offers and decided to grab this cool looking controllers as "mine" when my family and friends are playing Xbox.

    Microsoft controllers have a great design but major design flaw. They are well known to have stick drift. Have bought so many controllers including the supposingly "Elite" version. Only thing elite about is is the price and how fast they fail. I play mainly Apex. Lots of stick movement.

      Hi Brad,

      We're sorry there's an issue with the thumbsticks on your Xbox wireless controller. Every new Xbox controller comes with a 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty from Microsoft. If it's within the warranty period, we recommend contacting Xbox Support for assistance here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/controller/controller-warranty

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    You cannot go wrong with a new controller. I always like to have a spare in case something happens to the other one while I am playing (they get old and wear out).

    This controller unfortunately took a nose dive into breakdown land. It literally stopped working 2 months after purchase. I’m not sure what happened but I was bummed when it just stopped working. Great color though!

    Total trash! Warrantied another carbon black Xbox controller on Sept. 2nd 2023 and sound was erratic from the start and continued to get worse as time went on. Returned on Oct. 5th 2023 and received a new controller under warranty and everything was peachy until today, Nov. 14th 2023. Yep, same sound distortion and disconnecting on and off. This is getting expensive, even with the warranty. 3 controllers within 3 months, Billy Gates himself can't deny these controllers are trash. Did Best Buy get defective controllers, because I get at least a year from the controllers at Gamestop and never with an audio issue... Hmmm

    Great controller. Feels very comfortable and relaxing in my hands. Was pleased with the gaming experience I had using this controller. Going to take it to my homie crib and get “All rats must die” on the back.
