    Does the Elite 2 Controller really only have 90-day warranty?

    I thought about the Best Buy protection plan but it was like $40 and only for 2 years. I've had my previous Xbox controller for more than 2 years and it's not even Elite, it's just a regular controller so I though it was not worth it. If it was 5-year
    protection, then it would've made sense to me.

    Controller Problems? Am I going crazy?

    long time xbox player, always had gold, and I used to love customising xbox controllers. I keep replacing my NEW controllers after a few months. I just don't understand, seems obvious they arn't built to last even 6 months. I baby all my
    stuff putting the controller back in the box after use and here I am 2 months out with the same problems as the last two controllers. Do I start up a 95% working controller buisness? Someone help me from turning my back on the greed of this obvious obselence,
    I just wanna play some xbox 🤷‍♂️
    I've been gaming on xbox for [Mod Removed- Profanity] near fifteen years and I can't even fathom the number of controllers I've destroyed. I now own three xbox elite controllers and two are broken. The 3rd controller I just bought yesterday.

    I buy a protection plan every time nowadays. If you know the controller's gonna break or malfunction under your ownership, you should spend the extra cash for a protection plan. You'll save money in the long run. If you get two controllers with a protection
    plan each, you'll always have a backup even when you gotta send one in.

    Xbox series X controller keeps drifting up

    My tips for that are:

    Buy it with a credit. Fun fact - they mostly all offer a 2 years warranty in their fine print

    Buy a purchase protection plan. Target's is $6. After my 2nd controller drifted I got that. Im on controller 6

    Elite controller 2

    While I can't speak into info on the Elite Controller 2, I can speak about protection plans - specifically Best Buy's Geek Squad Protection that was previously mentioned. If you purchase the controller from them, you will have the option for a 2-Year
    Geek Squad Protection Replacement Plan for an additional $39.99 (about $1.67 per month). If a manufacture defect or normal wear/tear cause something to not work, you can take it back to to Best Buy (you don't have to go through the manufacturer). If the
    problem is not repairable, your product gets replaced or you get store credit if a replacement is not available (out of stock).

    I have used several of these plans in the past based on the cost of the product I'm buying, cost of that product, and potential issues of that product. I have had nothing but good experiences when I've had to use the protection plan. Just assess the cost
    of the plan with both replacement cost of the product and your peace of mind. If you find it valuable, go for it.
