  1. Build Quality


    Ok so I recently purchased a brand new Xbox 1 s controller as my previous one was practically falling apart' anyway just over 4 weeks old and the left analogue stick has started to drift severely it's either moving super fast with very little response or
    not moving at all even with vigorous encouragement and the final insult is the crunching sound that seems to be the cause of the problem's. I am truly shocked at the substandard build quality of Xbox controllers. Since purchasing my Xbox one console on release
    I have managed to go through 5 official controllers using them regularly but with care and still they brake it's beyond a joke. I am not a wealthy individual so the price of a new official controller (£50) is a big deal.

    :)

    Thanks for clarifying that the issue is with your trigger JokingRocket844, this wasn't mentioned in your initial post which can help us best figure out the best path. Is your right trigger not responding or is it something else?

    xDamnYouSalazar, please be sure to create a new post if you're having a particular issue with your controller. This is a support forum and we're here to help out people who are experiencing any issues. Thanks.

    Controller Build Quality

    I try to educate people here, and the people at Microsoft as well, the issue in many of these threads is analog gearbox modules breaking. I've provided many articles, videos, pictures describing the issue and much of the time the mods here censor me so you
    guys don't know how they're effing you over. It is one of the most common themes here in the accessories support and it's just egregious that they refuse to respond to it, or say they'll look into it (and how can they when they censor every thread, comment,
    with source material I try creating. They make up some BS excuse that I'm encouraging people to void their warranties which is blatant damage control on their end. Look at my achievos, do I look like someone here to create a ruckus for the sake of it? Or do
    I look like someone who cares about Xbox gaming? Anyhow, if you're interested in what I have to say, direct message me here and I'll send you the information as I'm not allowed to post it on these boards. Or just figure it out yourself, with the power of a
    Bing/Google browser.

    To put it straight, these controllers to part of a process called planned obsolescence, that is, they're made to last just a tad bit longer than the warranty covers them for so that you'll go back and buy a new $60 controller every few months. They didn't
    care to make a quality controller because if they did they'd of made on just like the Xbox 360 controller which are troopers that will last you many years a piece for half the price. Again, I could provide you plenty of supporting material but the mods will
    just delete it so you'll have to take my word for it, or Private Message me for the juicy details.

    Troubleshoot? "Have you tried not using the right trigger as much, this should stop it breaking"

    Microsoft needs to address the issue here. I mean, I still haven't even had a formal reply to this yet. Surely there are standards you have to meet for quality?!

    Controller Build Quality

    I think his issue is very clear. Anyone that has ever played xbox one knows that the build quality of the controller is terrible. It is probably the worst quality consumer product ever made. I have the same issue and i'm not a heavy gamer. I go through a
    controller per month and microsoft refuses to fix the issue and the customer support is horrible. Someone should file a class action. The person who designed the controller should be fired.
