FAQ — Xbox controller service
- Do Hall effect sticks really fix joystick drift?
- Yes. Hall sensors use magnets and don’t rely on physical contact like traditional potentiometers, so drift does not develop the same way and longevity is higher.
- Can you fix intermittent USB-C charging?
- In most cases, yes. We replace the port and inspect the charging board and cable path. If needed, we replace the cable or recommend a certified one.
- How long is the warranty?
- Between 3 and 12 months depending on the repair type and parts used. We provide written warranty information with each job.
- Is it worth repairing an older Xbox One controller?
- Usually yes, especially with a Hall joystick upgrade and new bumpers. If repair isn’t economical, we’ll tell you before starting.
- Do you support Elite controllers?
- Yes, including bumper assemblies and stick modules. Some shells require special clips — we stock them or order on demand.
