Xbox elite series 2 controller trigger sticking

Hello ShivaPike,

Welcome to the Xbox Community Forum! Thank you for sharing your concern with me today, I hope you're doing well. I understand that you have a question regarding the stick tension on the standard Series X controller and how it compares to the Elite Series 2 controller.



The standard Series X controller has a default stick tension that is not adjustable. However, the Elite Series 2 controller has adjustable stick tension with three different settings as you mentioned in your question. With the Elite Series 2 controller, you can increase or decrease the stick resistance according to your preference.



I understand that increased stick resistance may be helpful for you due to your neurological condition. I recommend trying out the Elite Series 2 controller in-store or with a friend who owns one to see if the highest resistance setting is suitable for you before making the investment.



Here is a link to the official Xbox support page that provides more information on adjusting the stick tension on the Elite Series 2 controller is the same link you provided: Adjust the sticks on your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 | Xbox Support

You may check try to check if customization of the controller could be your preference: Xbox Adaptive Controller | Xbox



I hope this information helps! Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Sincerely,

It is still under warranty, but im not sure if Microsoft would repair it or even get a new one.

Hey there KalebTang,

Thanks for reaching out to the Forums for advice on how to work with this issue. I can totally see how this could throw anyone off. If it is still in warranty, then I would also recommend getting it sent in.

Microsoft Device support does not repair controllers, so you would end up getting a new one. Super important to know though is that if you do send it in, to make sure that you remove all removeable parts.

Hope this was helpful.

Thanks for reading!

Is he no longer under warranty?

Thanks Viper.

That seems totally strange to me. It can't be an analogue digital hing as it allows you to map, say, the right trigger, to a button.

I really really hope they add that soon!

I appreciate your reply. Happy New Year.

Well you can't re-map the triggers on the Standard or Elite Series 1 controller, but you can with the Elite Series 2. It does seem like an analog/digital thing. I hope its not to hard to add the stick direction re-mapping function to the Series 2.

I will send feedback to Microsoft about this.

Happy New Year to you.
