Rubber grips coming off my elite controller

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 .

I only use Elite controllers. I had a couple of the black ones, but the rubber grips kept coming off. I'm currently using the white Elite controller. I've had it for about 7 months now, with no issues yet.

I don't know where is the "elite" on a controller with so many flaws. My elite controller rubber grips become loose and are opened. I am a casual gamer and take excellent care of my stuff. It looks more like its a manufacturing flaw. We will know for sure
if their engineering team fixed this when they launch the new Xbox One S which comes with a controller that features rubber grips same as the elite.

I would not recommend the Elite controller. They wear down very quickly with the rubber grips coming off quite quickly. I had mine less than a year and the grips started coming off the back. For others, I can't really say as I have never tried another.

I haven't had any issues with the rubber grips, One of my Elite controllers has been in use for over 2 years now, and the grips are still fine, there is no signs of them coming off at all.

But as others have said, if you're concerned about it, look into an extended warranty.
