Works great

Bought this to try and see if it would work in an older Xbox One controller. This was half the price of the "Made for Xbox One" kit and worked perfectly.

I don’t write negative reviews unless I feel I looked up all possible replacement options so here we go.I got the Xbox Play and Charge kit in August 2023 and I would’ve rated this a 5 star up until a couple weeks. The battery simply won’t charge or doesn’t charge past “Critical” level. I leave this plugged in while I play and overnight and I can’t get the battery to charge. When it’s plugged in, I only get the “Plugged In” status, which you get if the battery is removed and the controller is plugged in. I use the usb-c cord this came with and the controller turns on and says plugged in so I know it’s not a cord or controller issue. I had the previous version, the Xbox One Plug and Play kit, and that battery lasted nearly 10 years while this new version lasts 10 months.Microsoft’s help page is also severely outdated, only linking the troubleshooting to the aforementioned Xbox One Plug and Play kit. The cord provided in the modern Xbox Play and Charge kit doesn’t have the charge light indicator as stated so you don’t know if the battery is charging when plugged into the wall or while the Xbox is off.Overall, buy at your own risk and don’t expect to find help through a warranty. The warranty for accessories is linked to your console so if your console warranty is out, you pay to get the charge kit serviced, along with the shipping, even if the accessory was purchased a full year after the console warranty expires. I didn’t call anyone for this issue, this day and age, I shouldn’t have to. This is all just based on Microsoft’s website and support community. Like me, let’s see where all these 5 star reviews are a year from now.

This has been one of the best things I have ever purchased for the Xbox. The long cord and ability to charge while you play has saved us a small fortune in batteries. The charge lasts for a very long time. More than happy with this purchase.

Just received this last week and only used once so far, but like some reviews stating having issues getting the battery to charge due to not getting the battery to seat correctly...the battery installed quite easily for me in the controller without the need of doing anything special. I definitely like the vibrating feedback acknowledging the USB cable being plugged in and charging the controller, which was verified by the scrolling charging battery bar on the screen. The included 9' cord is awesome as it easily allowed for me to still sit in my usual spot on the couch to comfortably play while charging using a wall outlet! I used the controller for about 2 hours while plugged in and it sill showed full charge, so the plug and charge feature worked. Also like other reviews, it would've been nice for the Series X charger cord to still have a red/green or red/off light for easier visual reference of it charging, but it's not too difficult to check it on the screen, so for now I can easily give it 4 stars.January 29, 2023 update.I have now run the battery until dead, immediately plugged it in, the controller powered on instantly and after a few hours of playing, I unhooked the charger cord and checked the battery level and it showed full, so the charge and play feature worked great!
