Controller warranty is 90 days (might be 1 year for the one that is included with the system). It is based on your your purchase date on the receipt. I only buy controllers from Walmart because their 3 year warranty is so cheap.
Unfortunately, censoring discussion of the topic will not resolve the issue. It's a well established fact that these controllers have an almost eventual drift issue. The only way to "move on" is for a major hardware revision to take place.

You post this same thing every single Xbox controller post. Move on.

Yeah...BUT I actually agree with this dude and think his 🧌 ng is appropriate here, at the very least as a warning if not for providing some sense of/way to complain..
.I have so many of these fkin controller and the sticks always eventually go and/or the audio ports. They are great controllers but at 40 bucks a pop on sale, it's absolute BS that they aren't better quality. I heard at some point there was gonna be a class action but who knows. I'll keep buying these stupid things and one of these days I'll solder in new thumbstick components if I ever get around to it ....I have probably 14 broken controllers and 5 that work from like the last five years, so that's about 4 per year we go through (have 3 kids and we all play)....and some of them went really fast with barely any use, within month or two so it's not from hard use. So yeah, I agree with this dude and Xbox made a newer design a while back and the sticks still suck and they know it, so yeah basically fk them for that man
I'm with you on this. I started off with the white controller and it eventually got drift in the right stick. Then I got a black. Eventually the same issue. I've had the red for a while now and it hasn't caused an issue yet but given my experience with the first two, I'm not holding out much hope.
Not a deal for elite controller. Was better to use target circle offers earlier this month and buy 2 elite controllers. It was $80ish per controller after tax. I missed out.

Come on $29 need my once a year new XB controller. My others are getting lonely.
Still half of what I paid to replace two of my PS5 controllers with stick drift. Now I got warranties on them and they will definitely be replaced before that runs out.

Can I just say though I find this Elite version ultra sexy? I just love the black color.

Edit: I found it under the specs. Looks like it does include the extras.
