    My brand new controllers are drifting and I have no idea what's happening.


    Hey folks, I have purchased some new Xbox controllers and for some reason they are drifting really bad and the button response is delayed by like 1 to 2 seconds. I have tried restarting the console, the controllers have brand new batteries, I also tried re-syncing the controllers and it still doesn't solve the issue and it's really frustrating.

    My brand new controllers are drifting and I have no idea what's happening.

    It sure is the shock blue. As i stated as well shortly right after my replacement series 2 warranty expired it drifted day 1 out of box and immediately after warranty expired. I had went and tried to get a repair because replacement was less than 3 days after warranty expired and i have to pay to repair it even though it was new replacement and brand new reoccurring issue with all elite2 and shock blues. Its a bummer because i absolutely love both controllers and have to deal with it irritatingly because by the time i pay out of irritation and wait, i could go and drop money on controllers i dont need for the same price and wait time. BIG BUMMER.

    I had immediately reported but no avail.

    Thank you much

    Like I said all updates are current, and it just happened right after the latest update on 10/25/21 so I doubt is normal for all 3 of my controllers to be bad all of a sudden at the same time due to hardware.

    I'm going to roll with any new ones will drift unfortunately. Even the newest number 2 series 2 elite replacement i got day before warranty went out it drifted day 1 and nothing was done if the work order other than me paying. My daughters brand new blue colored controller drifted day 1 out of box. Firmware update helped then 2nd update said sike you thought and back to drift.
