I picked it up in it’s case when I was leaving work, which turned out to not be zipped up, and it fell on a carpeted floor from maybe a couple of feet.

It seemed to work initially, but when I got home to play, I discovered that the LB button no longer works, the RB button only works on every second press, and the ‘Steam’ and ‘…’ buttons just zoom on the screen but not bring up the relevant menus, and with further exploration they both seem to trigger the LB function.

I’ve restarted it, installed the latest update, and the problem persists. It’s it fixable, or am I fucked?

    Thanks. I don’t feel confident enough to do that myself, but it’s reassuring that it’s repairable.

      I believe in you! I managed to crack a screen and replace it after some consternation. I believe you’re at least as able as I am.

        Thanks for the vote of confidence, but the comments in that iFixit page weren’t especially encouraging. I don’t even have a spudger. In fact, I had to look up what a spudger even was. I’m happy to leave it to the professionals.
