Jokes on me I bought an elite xbox controller thinking maybe the quality would be better than my normal one which got stick drift. the shoulder button on the elite broke almost immediately. I thought “maybe I just got a bad one” and replaced it using the warranty, the same exact thing happened again. I used the warranty again, and surprise it happened again. I decided to just buy better replacement shoulder buttons on amazon and fix it myself which solved the problem but then I got the same stick drift I was originally trying to solve.
the standard being “breaks within 10 hours”

never again
I went through like a dozen controllers during the 360’s life cycle and I guess their standards for quality haven’t improved.
