Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the Play & Charge Kit's long battery life, ease of use, and compatibility with various Xbox controllers. Many appreciate the kit's affordable price and how well it fits the controllers, along with the convenient length of the included charging cable. A small number of users expressed a preference for a USB-C charging port instead of micro-USB. Overall, the positive feedback significantly outweighs the negative comments.

    These battery packs so far have served me well. I first used it on my OG XBox One controller, and when I got my Series X, I popped in that same battery pack(with the appropriate battery cover) and it worked like a charm. I love that it's chargable outside of the controller and there's indicator LEDS, unlike the official XBOne Play and Charge kit that for some reason decided to put the indicator LEDS on the cord. Def great so far!

    Perfect fit on new Xbox S controller. Looks good, battery lasts long. Cheaper than an extra controller and disposable batteries that’s for sure!

    What's better than one? Two! Nice to have two battery packs for zero down time. Great idea to include the back plate for XB One and Series X/S.

    It works very well with my Xbox Wireless game pad for Windows but it can be difficult to install/remove it from the game pad. Normally I would recharge it while installed but they usually die while gaming and I don't want to stop to plug it in.

    They work perfectly, great value! Due note that because they're NiMH batteries, they wont report the charge level for the controller because they maintain their voltage until they "die". So you wont really know when they'll die, however they can be charged while you play thanks to the built in USB, and they provide a really long cable that you can use with any USB charger or plug directly into your Xbox/PC. So in the event they do die, its no issue, just plug em in and keep going!
