    Do you feel like Microsoft makes it’s controllers such that you’ll have to replace them...


    I believe that because I have both the consoles (Xbox One and PS4) and bought them when they released.

    For Xbox One - the controller lasted for about 3 years from the purchase date while for PS4 I have yet to purchase a new one because the original one just wouldn’t give up and I’m so happy for it.

    I feel like Microsoft is doing this on purpose to increase their revenue and I was planning to purchase a new xbox one series X but now I wouldn’t because this is a major deal.

    Do you also need to change your xbox one controller once every 3 years?

    :)

    Xbox controller

    Is it a standard controller or an Elite controller?

    If it’s standard you’ll have to replace the controller unfortunately. If it’s an elite you can get it serviced or replaced if it’s still under warranty.

    broken controller

    Hello, Samuel. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas. I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

    If your controller is within warranty, you can get a replacement. Microsoft usually do not fix controllers, only replace them. If you want to request a replacement, please refer to:
    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-ne...

    Feel free to ask back any questions.

    My xbox one lunar what controllers LT is scraping on something

    Generally, triggers on new controllers should feel smooth. You shouldn't feel any sort of harsh resistance as you press on them.

    If the trigger feels like it's scraping against something, there probably is something (dirt, dust, plastic debris from manufacture, etc) trapped around or under the trigger. If it's been like that since the first day of purchase, I'd suggest contacting
    your retailer for a replacement.
    I cant since it was a replacement for my broken controller since Im young I dont have a car to ship it back to Microsoft and I also dont have the money to ship it back.

    Xbox Controller Running My Motherboard Like An Implanted Virus

    At the very least you need a different cable, and likely the port is damaged and causing a short. You’ll probably need to replace the controller if you want to use the USB port

    Why does Xbox not provide a shipping box with the appropriate padding for a warranty repair?

    I couldn’t tell you, but this is the packaging they provide, so this is the packaging they expect you to use. If you feel better, you can add padding yourself. You will not be getting back the same unit you’ll just get a refurbished one off the pile. This is how all major electronics outfits handle replacement these days, no one is doing repair to your specific device

    Please make sure to include only the system, and no power cables, no controllers, make sure the disk drive is empty as well please
