so I recommend long warranty

I swapped it out twice within the very poor 3 month warranty period

Furthermore the warranty for this product through Microsoft is horrendous

The warranty is also trash which expired 2 weeks before my controller started messing up

90 day warranty expired 7 months ago

A better warranty would be great, but it had lasted me roughly 14 months of daily use, so i can't complain.

They will not honor any warranty or perform any returns for you

--I don't feel the ergonomics are there to warrant the price premium and the essentially nonexistent warranty support.

Their either was no warranty or it expired Microsoft wouldn't fix it

I highly recommend buying an extended warranty

And the one issue ive run into that everyone else has, is the damn warranty

all together."Turtle Beach is known for being difficult to work with, but even they provide and honor a one year warranty

Oh, and don't forget about the crappiest warranty provided for any 'pro' device ever

Microsoft doesn't have an extended warranty covering this failure.

Great product (conceptually) poor build quality, atrocious warranty

Microsoft doesn't back these up with any meaningful warranty and you will be left with a $$$$ paper weight

Of course the warranty has expired and Microsoft tells me there's nothing they can do about it

What's more, I never needed the warranty, because the thing works like a champ, and I use it every day, 9-10 hours a day.

RECOMMEND EXTENDED WARRANTY if possible

Less than a month after the horrible 3 month warranty, the left analog stick began to drift badly to 12 oclock.

Only 1 day after the warranty expired.

think if Microsoft simply extended their warranty or provided a reasonably priced extended warranty I would be happier.

Shoulder bumpers are poorly designed and fail often, this was my second controller with this same issue and I even purchased the Squaretrade warranty just in case, And that complete joke of a company denied to replace it calling it accidental

The Pros:-Controller has great customization-thumb stick and d-pad choices are nice-feels like decent quality (at first)The Cons:-after about a year of normal use my rubberized grip just started coming off of the bottom part of the controller-A defect arose (after the warranty period) in which the controller would glitch out when trying to play with the charge cord plugged in-The controller is very

3 month warranty is ridiculous.

HIGHLY recommend not to purchase from anywhere but Best Buy since their warranty on these controllers are the best around.

warranty is total trash and the rechargeable battery

The defect is excusable, the inconsistency in the ability to get the controller replaced outside of its ridiculous 90 day warranty is inexcusable.

Unfortunately the $150 controller has a lovely 90 day warranty

Bad warranty :( didn't last a year.

It'd be one thing if MS actually stood behind their 'premium' product with a decent warranty and free replacements, but after this experience I'm never buying from MS again.

Great controller and concept priced a bit steep and has a bit of a durability issue topped by a not great warranty

3 month warranty is an absolute joke!

The warranty is far too short for a product this expensive.

Even if your controller does fail within the purposefully lacking warranty period, Microsoft will instead try to sell you a new controller and force you to fight for any replacements under warranty

As stated in previous reviews the warranty is abysmal, it appears M$ knows exactly how long it will take the kind of gamers who use this level of accessory to wear out certain components and have built a shoddy 'warranty' service which is guaranteed to not be useful to the majority of users

Also, the general consensus regarding warranty work is non existent because, apparently, Microsoft does not repair these items

Unfortunately, the warranty is good only for 90 days so I am stuck with it

For $150 the warranty is crap

Highly recommend getting a warranty

The warranty is only 90 days on this product (a joke) so MS support basically told me I was SOL and recommended buying a new controller

Other times it works as it's supposed to and goes right.

The Right Bumper broke as

I'd gladly recommend this to anyone looking for a great controller to use, but I'd just warn them that it may not hold up for as long as they'd like.

Nothing is broken and everything works as it should.

For the price of this controller, it fails in multiple ways!!!LB just broke as it has for many customers
