Hi. I bought it recently it`s coming to Xbox One in order to connect to the PC and after a short time I noticed that the "A" button responds poorly to pressing when I press it slightly at an angle, and this happens to me all the time while playing (I didn`t have such a problem with the buttons on the Xbox 360 pad). Pressed evenly and accurately works well, but otherwise the game or the system often does not register the presses.
I found it on the Internet other users` posts ( and here too ), who also have such problems, but I haven`t found any sensible solution. Various people write that replacing a defective item in a store will not help, because subsequent pads have the same problems, as if it were a matter of problematic device design or a manufacturing defect of all pads.
A week ago, I returned my Xbox Elite Series 2 pad for exactly the same reason, because the "ABXY" buttons didn`t work well. The situation then was identical to the current one, only worse, because the problem affected all the buttons, and in addition, that pad was 3 times more expensive than this one, so I definitely regretted the amount spent on it. Therefore, I can believe that Microsoft simply messed something up in all Xbox One pads and it doesn`t matter whether they are regular or Elite - the buttons are simply poorly made.
If necessary, I can post a video to demonstrate the problem, but to start with I will use one I found on the Internet, where the identical problem is shown on an Elite Series 2 pad: YouTube .
If I don`t find a convincing solution, I will probably have to return to the store again next week and this time I won`t buy any more pads. All I can do is continue to use the old Xbox 360 pad.
Can anything be done about this problem after disassembling the pad? Maybe there`s a way to fix it mechanically?
