"Good to go"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The Xbox plug and play kit is great. The battery has good capacity and holds charge well when not in use. Another bonus is it will continue to charge via USB even when the unit is off.

"Latest model"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Latest release with better battery life and the convenience of factory fitting. Tends to last way longer than third party options. Worth the money!

"Does what it’s supposed to!"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Much better quality than the cheaper third party offerings. Most of the third party recharchable batteries use a seperate charging port on the actual battery which prevents the charging meter on the Xbox dashboard from functioning. Better to stick with genuine Xbox accessories.

Cable is still going strong, but the battery doesn't charge at all after 12 months. The 3rd party battery I have is still going.

"Lasts a lot longer than Rechargeable Batteries"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

A shame you either have to buy separate or bundled. Should be standard practice to include them. Last ages, way longer than expensive rechargeable AA's

"Broke way too early"
2 stars"

The cable itself is fine but the charging bit and the usb actually bent out of shape and needs to be bent for the light to come on. Also worried it has ruined my controllers port but not sure of that/

"Does what it should"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Great unit, high quality, better than buying a cheaper version. Long cord and battery life is good.

"Long Battery Time"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Bought many cheap battery packs, of which lasted around an hour when charged to full. Was sick and tired of having to charge them so often, so finally got these and I can say one charge lasts through around 5, 3 hour long sessions, amazing!
