Xbox Play USB Charging Kit for Xbox Series X

This is more conveinient that most other battery alternatives for the Xbox controller, i didnt want to have battery docks and all sorts of noncence so opted for the official battery that charges inside the controller, i used rechargable AA cells before which didnt last very long and of course the headache of having to swap them out, the Xbox battery solves this as you charge and go, or just top it up periodically. The battery life is modest, its about on par with rechargable AA cells which is fine, the only gripe i have is the battery rolloff voltage seems a bit steep, I start playing and the level is about 50% 30 minutes or so the controller just switches off, no prompt from the console that the level is low like using regular cells, if they manage to fix this with a software update i would call it a perfect solution, however the only work around to avoid mid game cutout is to ensure you have the batttery on charge when not in use or have the cable at hand in the event it cuts out, so in essence it solves most of the problems but created a new one. Xbox please make the console detect low power for this pack!!! Its the only thing which would make this a perfect solution.

Great as always. I’ve got these in all my controllers. The charge while you play ability is great. Just a shame they don’t have the old cable with the charge/full indicator any more.

Soooooo handy! Love it! Such a great idea of keep changing batteries!

I originally voted this to a 3 star but i have since figured out my original problem so it can have 1 more but only one. I think Xbox charging icons etc are crap. On must things there is an charging indicatoir and it's really clear and either has a percentage showing during charging or a lightning bolt or even the battery filling up over and over. The xbox charge has a ... god knwow what you define as full or empty, it's not clear so when you are charging it its either one or the other and nothing to show its actually CHARGING. When it got full it bugged on me and although the battery was full it was turning itself off (didnt show the alternative charged image either) all the time but apparently you have to update the controller which although plugged in for hours on end after purchasing the XBOX X it didn't update or ask me at all. So its turning off and doesnt show that its charged its easy enough to think that it's faulty. I only fixed the problem when messing around with it on pc and adding via bluetooth that it shows are chaged battery next to it in the blue tooth devices menu so I managed to find out how to update the controller too and even as we speak im not quite sure of the final icon for what is fully charged controller. Get a charging icon and a percentage fgs the system cost half a grand!

Works great

The Xbox Play and Charge Kit USB is a near-essential accessory for dedicated gamers who want to ensure their gaming sessions remain uninterrupted. The convenience it offers is undeniable. Gone are the days of scrambling for batteries mid-game; with this kit, you can seamlessly charge your controller while continuing to play. The build quality of the cable is commendable. It feels sturdy and is long enough to provide a good range of movement, even when plugged in. The charging speed is relatively quick, ensuring that even short breaks can give your controller a decent power boost. However, there's a slight room for improvement. While the battery life is generally impressive once fully charged, it would have been even better to see a longer-lasting performance, especially for those marathon gaming nights. Additionally, an indicator for charging status or a more detailed battery level display would have been a great touch for more precise monitoring. All in all, the Xbox Play and Charge Kit USB is a valuable addition to any gamer's arsenal. It offers convenience and reliability, with just a few minor areas that could benefit from tweaks. If you're looking to elevate your gaming experience and minimize interruptions, this kit is a solid choice.

I don't know what it is with Microsoft hardware but it isn't great quality. I purchased this battery pack for my Series X controller. Being a genuine Microsoft product you would expect there to be some kind of quality and piece of mind when buying original equipment. Not with this battery pack though. So mine arrived as normal, packing was undamaged and everything seemed as I would expect. I opened the packaging and inserted the battery into my controller, connecting it via the supplied USB type A to C cable. My Xbox showed the controller battery was charging and played on my console for a few hours. At no point did I unplug the controller and left it overnight. In fact, it was about 3 nights in total as I hadn't used my Series X due to work. When I came to use my Xbox I unplugged the cable and sat back, pressed the Xbox button to power on my console and nothing. I looked down and saw the Xbox button wasn't lit up. I pressed it again and it flashed briefly before powering back off so I connected the USB cable and pressed the button again and my console powered on immediately. Once it booted up to the main screen I unplugged the controller again and I got a message stating the battery power is low and about 15 seconds later the controller died. Basically the battery pack wouldn't charge. I have an older version of these battery packs in my OG Xbox One controller. Looking at the label of that and the new battery pack revealed that they are identical in power output and mAh's. I plugged this into my Series X controller and what do you know? Works fine and without issue. I returned the new battery pack as it clearly has issues and now I know that the battery pack from my Xbox One controller does the same job, I now use that instead. Overall I would say that my experience has been pretty poor from what is a genuine Microsoft product. I think I'll buy third party should I choose to buy another battery pack.

Incroyable ! vraiment bien, recharge très rapidement et offre un câble très long 20€ hésité pas ! Au-dessus non c'est trop cher même si c'est de qualité

Necessitavo di una batteria ricaricabile per il mio controller (originale) X-Box. Questo prodotto offriva sia la batteria sia il cavo di ricarica (attenzione che non c'è lo spinotto, ma si può ricaricare attaccandolo direttamente alla console). Il cavo di ricarica si può attaccare direttamente al controller portando la possibilità di ricaricare il controller anche mentre si sta giocando. Questo rende possibile giocare ininterrottamente per ore e ore, e sicuramente permette di non perdere il filo mentre si gioca perché costretti a fermarsi per ricaricare il controller. Il cavo poi è sufficientemente lungo da poter arrivare alla console. La ricarica è veloce, sicura, affidabile. La durata della batteria, una volta ricaricata, permette di godere del gioco per anche una giornata o due a seconda dei ritmi di gioco. Inoltre la batteria ha una durata molto estesa proprio come prodotto in sé: è longeva, duratura e resistente. Dopo anni di utilizzo funziona ancora egregiamente. Probabilmente perché è evidentemente costruita con materiali di buona qualità. Anche il cavo è resistente e fa egregiamente il suo lavoro. Sono soddisfatto dell'acquisto di questo kit composto da batteria e cavo di ricarica per controller Xbox. Lo consiglio anche perché per l'ambiente è più salutare non usare continuamente batterie usa e getta, ma piuttosto queste ricaricabili che sono molto ecologiche. Lo consiglio!

I bought this because in mid brawlhalla match, my batteries ran out and was brutally dominated by a spear spammer (Even tho I was already being dominated) which resulted in me breaking a hole in my wall where my neighbor was watching brainrot PH videos. Ignoring the fact I have to live with the mental image of that AND in debt because of the broken wall, I can now play knowing I won't have to go to the other side of my house for the TV control batteries! Even tho I'm still being dominated in Brawlhalla. Worth it!

La pila es muy buena, y es de buena duración, pero tiene algunos detalles como la falta de una clara situación de carga. Es difícil deducir cuando se ha cargado, y tiende a desconectarse a veces si no es colocada de forma óptima, llegas a pensar que no tiene pila, pero luego la mueves y sigue funcionando.

Ürünü xbox kolumu sürekli kabloyla kullanmamak ve kalem pilleri sıklıkla değiştirmemek için aldım. Bu da bi pil olduğu için zamanla performansı azalacaktır ancak takıp arada bir şarj etmek için iyi bir ürün. Anladığım kadarıyla kola takılı iken kolu type Cye bağladığınızda şarj ediyor kendisini. Bu açıdan konforlu bir ürün. Aşırı gerekli değil ancak ilk cümlemde yazdığım şeyleri yapmaktan sıkıldıysanız en güzel çözüm.
