I've broken now 4 Xbox One controllers! The left sticks on all of them are messed up!!!

I've had an Xbox 360 for a longer time period and never broke a controller... Since I've had my Xbox One, I've broken 4 controllers the same way! The left stick on my controllers are all messed up. I play NHL games while this happens and it really affects
game play as well. I can't properly play NHL because of this serious and frustrating issue. Does anyone else have this problem? I mean, I'm really considering changing to PS4 if I need to constantly get new expensive controllers.

Xbox OnePC Controler unusable after 1 and a half year! Programed inbuild obsolenscense

I dunno why people are so anti-consumer about this.

I've been gaming since the 1970s. I've owned one or more consoles in every generation. In all of that time as a gamer, I've had 8 broken controllers: -

An Xbox 360 controller that developed minor stick drift after many years as being my main controller for both the 360 and PC gaming.

7 broken Xbox One controllers - 4 regular controllers and 3 Elites. 2 of those controllers were broken out of the box, including my Day One controller. Even with the Xbox One controllers that "worked", I've had regular issues with them disconnecting where
the sound starts to break up in my headset, the controller disconnects then reconnects, but then it says I have no mic and I have to manually turn the controller off and back on to get the mic working again. This has happened with several original Xbox Ones
and all of the controllers I've owned and it's only when I switched to an Xbox One X that it stopped happening - or at least, it hasn't happened yet.

So in all of those years of gaming, all 8 broken controllers I've had have been made by Microsoft, but 7 of them have been Xbox One controllers. Don't try and tell me it's something I'm doing unless "using a controller to play a game" somehow counts as misuse
now. Saying "my 360 controller has never broken" isn't even relevant to the OP's post, as he's talking about Xbox One controllers.

 

POS controller

Hey guys,

So I'm on my third controller for Xbox One. I got the Day One edition, and the left thumb stick and right thumb stick broke within about 2 weeks of playing Ryse: Son of Rome and Battlefield 4. Got a second controller, same thing happened to the left thumb stick
and left bumper now. I am on my THIRD controller and the left thumb stick popped out of place and I can't even click it down anymore. I never had an issue with an Xbox 360 controller and so far I've burned through three Xbox One controllers. I've called support
and they haven't helped and I'm sick and tired of spending money on something that will break within 3 weeks. Microsoft, please do something to help me. Thank you

Regards,

Mike
