    I had my elite controller fir less than 6 months now and the grips are already peeling off. I honestly expected better quality considering the price for the controller.

    Anyone know how to reattach elite controller grips?

    Since you've only had the controller 6 months it should be under warranty. You should be able to get Microsoft to sort the issue free of charge I believe

    If it isn't under warranty you could get these Gray Rubberized Right Left Side Replacement Rear Handle Grips. They work great for me. These are for the original Xbox Elite Controller.

    Elite pro controller

    Personally, I have my Elite Controller for almost two years and use it almost daily. I have no issues with the rubber grips.

    However, I have watched other friends play on their consoles, and depending on how engaged they get in the game, I've seen them squeezing and slightly twisting their hand around the controller grip, as if it were a motorbike throttle (I'm exaggerating the
    movement, but it's a slight twisting motion around the controller grips).

    So just play some games, and try to observe yourself how tense you become playing these games. If you feel you are gripping the controller much harder, and rubbing your fingers or palms around the controller grip, I'd advise against buying ANY controller
    with added rubber grips (be it the Elite controller, or similar controllers), as this squeezing will stretch the rubber grips ever so slightly.

    And as the saying goes: constant dripping wears the stone.

    The rubber pads are specifically there so you DON'T HAVE TO squeeze the controller so tightly to get a decent grip.

    If you're a relaxed player, and can keep your cool in even the most heated battle, then the Elite Controller will surely be a great addition.

    However if you tend to clench and tighten your grip under stress, a plastic controller (if necessary with added grip texture, like on some standard special edition controllers) would suit your gaming style better.

    Or think about getting a silicone cover that you can pull over the elite controller for added grip and protection.

    Extended Warranty - Elite Controller

    I don't know where is the "elite" on a controller with so many flaws. My elite controller rubber grips become loose and are opened. I am a casual gamer and take excellent care of my stuff. It looks more like its a manufacturing flaw. We will know for sure
    if their engineering team fixed this when they launch the new Xbox One S which comes with a controller that features rubber grips same as the elite.
