The name says it all. The quality of the cable is as good as anything Microsoft makes. The only problem is that it's about 6 feet long, which means you have to sit pretty close to the Xbox. While you can bring the real Xbox closer to your seat, I think most users prefer to keep their device in one place. That being said, the price is right and you can certainly charge your controller when you're not using it. . This allows you to later use the controller in "wireless" mode. All in all I would buy it again if needed.
