In a recent interview, the head of accessories and hardware Microsoft Bob Brown said that the company is working scrupulously to ensure users a Xbox controller One that lasts ten years, the average period of life of a console. Brown stresses that, when it is carried out the tests on the pad, much attention has been paid to details: usually each key of a pad is pressed even repeatedly between 4 and 5 times per second, and the controller in time will not be affected.

Will be able to endure, with the passing of the years, the continuous button-smashing that some games require.

In addition to guarantee maximum efficiency, they made even more testing details such as dropping the pad on the floor in order to understand what are the main points of impact that would almost certainly break a controller currently on the market. With this test you will be able to ensure, therefore, that the major internal components are not damaged after any crashes.

Even if the controller is in its production almost finished, Brown explains that are still running various tests: the pad can, at present, handle more than three million key presses, specialties, according to Brown, far above the goal that you set yourself at the beginning.
