my elite controller is out of warranty but the rubber grips keep falling off its relly poor considering the amount of money paid for this!

not a happy xbox one user who has spent hundreds and hundreds on cosnole and games, controllers and this is the ONLY one to fail me.

it works but not nice without the grips

Since it's out of warranty I would replace those grips online. Kits are pretty cheap online.

I reccomend you to buy some grips from internet, or you can try pastimg them with a hard stick glue,

i dont have one nearby but the grips really are poor held on by one little bit of rubber. the cheap controllers are better built than this. the only way uts staying on is gluing it on.

Hi Alan,

Thanks for coming to the forums. If the controller is out of warranty there isn't really much anyone here can do for you. As we are only able to provide information on things like this. You can try to talk with a support agent to see if they can help you.
Also, if you have a Microsoft store near you, can go there.

Thanks,

Brad

I have 2 elite controllers myself and out of warranty but both controllers have the grips and underside of the rubber coming off .

Question the new xbox 1 elite controller 2s are coming out in november here in the Uk but what proof do i have that the rubber is not going to start peeling of theses because if i order 2 that's £320 when the rubber starts coming off which isn't good at
all for the price i might as well be paying for 2 scuf controllers . Is xbox giving any of us elite 1 uses a discount for buying elite 2s ? because owning the elite 1s where the rubber comes of in less than 12 months is not good and puts me off buying the
new ones when they do come out .
