I have 4 xbox 360 controllers I through the years. They seem to have subtle differences in their build. One is white, the oldest, then of the two wireless ones which are black, only one has a dark grey charging port.
Now, each one of them save the fourth, which is black and wired, and the newest, have something which broke. Most show left stick centering or calibration problems (ie they have bias and move slightly by themselves). Others have phantom presses in the LB and A button.

I thought the build quality was better. So before repairing them or buying a new one, I want to know if the Xbox One controllers are better built and last longer. I might buy one if that's the case, since here they are sold at a much higher price.
 
People say they squeak less and are more refined. But really only time will tell as to how well they hold up. Generally the design of things is improved with each generation based on the findings of the previous though.
