    I’ve had 8 elite series 2 controllers, every single one has broken bumpers after about 3...


    This is not an exaggeration. I have spent an unreal amount of money on these controllers because they are the best beyond a doubt. However, the bumpers are literally made of paper. I should get 3 years+ out of a $200 controller, but I need to purchase a new one every few months instead. It sucks because otherwise the controller is perfect.

    And before you ask, I take great care of my controllers. All of my previous controllers have lasted years, in fact most would still work today if I dusted off my old 360. I never slam or drop my controllers, I keep them in the case when not gaming, and I am not harsh on the buttons or bumpers at all. I can’t understand how they were released with such fragile bumpers. For it to happen one time is one thing, but 8 times is outrageous. And it’s not just me, there are thousands of reviews and youtube videos detailing the bumper problem. Please please please fix this with the series 3 controller.

    :)

    Xbox Elite series 2 controller analogue sticks flick to opposite direction. Can I fix this?

    This is a constant issue. I’ve owned half a dozen elites, had many of those replaced for bumper or stock drift issues, and the snap-back direction reverse has been an issue in every single one. This is a design issue and not repairable. The elite controllers are great for so many reasons, but there are a few clear issues that if MS corrected or spent a fraction more money on, (like higher quality thumb sticks or better plastic or even metal parts in bumpers, etc. The controller would be most deserving of the “elite” moniker.

    Elite Controller Bumpers

    Yeah the Elite Series 2 was basically improved from feedback of users of the Elite Series 1

    Many problems were fixed including the bumpers and the grip that also came loose after some time

    Hope to get an Elite Controller one day :)

    Xbox elite series 2 problems

    I have had both the elite controller and also the elite series 2.

    Issues with both are quite bad considering the cost of the things. The elite series 2 controller has left stick wandering issues, the a button is sometimes non responsive, the bumpers sound really tacky and the rubber comes away from the plastic body where
    you grip.

    I have gone through 3 elite series controllers (thankfully Game exchanged them each time) and am on the fourth now and it has the exact same issues as the other three, with the acception of the rubber coming away, not had it long enough for that.

    To sum up, I am very unhappy with the controller, so much so I am at the moment using an elite series one that has had all the rubber removed, its a bit uncomfortable but this said controller has no other issues.

    Hope this helped.

    Xbox One Controller is garbage / engineered obsolescence

    The only trouble I’ve ever had from xbox controllers is a wandering thumbstick and that was after a few years of play. I have a regular run-of-the-mill controller now for almost 2 years and no issues. I play at least 2-3 hours a day, every day.

    However, my brother has an elite and it is complete garbage. Hoping they address all of the flaws in the Elite 2.
