Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Enhance Your Xbox 360 Gaming Experience with the Play and Charge Kit by Michael Custodio

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great value accessories

Wireless controllers are a problem. When I first bought the Xbox 360, I took two batteries with me, along with a couple of AA batteries. All of those options are now out of the question - and my batteries and all my AAs aren't holding a charge. After playing with a wireless controller for a while, you get to the point where you realize just how impractical wireless really is when your controller goes offline while shooting someone in Battlefield 3. My wireless controller is now always connected to my Xbox using one of these As you can see from the product photo, this cable is not an official Microsoft Play & Charge cable - the oval shape at the top of the square connector would be a holographic Xbox 360 stickers if that were the case. However, this is not a problem for me and should not be a problem for you either. Microsoft's official cable for gaming and charging will cost you at least $20, and how much is that? A simple cable that carries 5 volts with a USB connector on one end and a proprietary connector on the other. There's no way you can screw this up to damage your hardware, and I prefer paying $5 for it from Cables Unlimited. Cables Unlimited somehow manages to produce quality products while maintaining a very attractive price. Just for the Xbox that I bought this playback and charging cable for, I have Cables Unlimited Cat5 and HDMI cables that connect it to the TV and router respectively and I have their cable products at home. They have become one of the brands I see on the shelf or in search results that lead to an immediate purchase.

Pros
