    Bought 7/2021 and already Jan 2022 a button randomly no longer is working. These seem to only last 6 months. Will order again with geek squad so they hopefully do back up the product

    The consile controllers have become an absolute joke to the customers. They're pretty much guaranteed to fail within the 3-6 months.

    The controller bricked itself after 4 months. Good thing I purchased a product protection plan. These controllers are NOT built to last.

      Hello,

      We're sorry that your experience with this Xbox wireless controller didn't match expectations. Just to clarify, this controller does not come with a charging cable since it uses two AA disposable batteries. To connect to your Xbox or Windows 10 PC with a wired connection, you must purchase a standard USB-C to USB-A cable.

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    This controller crapped out in less than 2 months. It turns on, but that's it. Does not connect via bluetooth nor via cable. Awesome.

      Hi Cristal,

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

      Hope that helps,

    15 day return policy is a ripoff the standard is at least 30 days. In case your product is faulty and I didn’t even remove it from the box for a few months. It was backup and it’s faulty

    Bought it in June because I needed a controller and I liked the new color scheme. Didn't even last 4 months before I started to notice stick drift. It's infuriating that Microsoft can't figure out how to make their controllers last longer. They are hit or miss. I have a day one controller from 2016 that still works fine but this brand new model just didn't last.
