    Solid rechargeable battery but it doesn't fully charge, so the battery is always at %70 so you have to recharge it a lot

    It gets the job done. Life expectancy not to long. Not as good as original plug and play.

    They work but be ready to keep charging them after a while, I say around 3-6months until you have to keep them charging

    The Microsoft brand one is out of stock so tried this off-brand cable. It doesn’t have a light on the connector to indicate charging status, it also doesn’t seem to charge the battery as well and the battery itself doesn’t hold a charge for very long. Might be a one-off problem but either way I won’t buy this again. Used The smile face shipping co (you know the one) to get the Microsoft one

    They work great, but feel like it loses charge fast, but on the other hand it charges just as quick

    Works, but mediocre batter life. At first I thought it required a full charge, nope did not help. We shall see how long it lasts as well.

    I knew it was a budget pack and charger going in but... The battery pack never fully charges, and as of writing this, has started to over heat when charging, the cable doesnt always registeras being connected. Would NOT recommend this one, spend the extra cash and buy the Microsoft version.

    Bought it for my newer Xbox controller. Charged it for several hours and went to use it and the controller wouldn't turn on. so, I checked to make sure it was installed properly and was secure and I left it overnight to charge and it never fully charged. if I don't use it while it's plugged in, it dies in under 10 minutes. completely not worth the frustration.

    This battery pack is okay, but it's not a Lithium Ion battery pack like Microsoft's, so you're paying less for less. Instead this one is a Nickel Metal Hydride battery.

    This is OK for the price, would of much rather had a charging stand but not for the price of it.
