Xbox One xbox one controler charging cable 6ft $1.99

I was going to buy the Microsoft play and charge kit but opted for the Nyko one instead. It was a bit more pricey, but it came with a dockable charger and two rechargeable batteries. Since I had Best Buy reward zone bucks, I used it to purchase the charger. Getting ready for my 24 hour + gaming.

Not a bad idea. I was ok playing thru a cord until I saw the charging station I purchased had two rechargeable batteries.

I believe that is the play and charge kit you're referring to.

but ive seen the play and charge kit and the cord looks like 3 ft long lmao, i could be wrong though? all i know is i want to find out which one makes the wireless into wired lol
 
i normally play from my bed in the room where my xbox one is going.

this is a cord to plug into system and can play thru(faster controler) it will also technically charge the controler while plugged in. for 1.99 for a 6ft cable its worth it. bet its the cheapest xbox one acc you can buy pre launch or even at launch.
 
that seem like a great deal, if it meets the quality standard though. Try it out, cause its not a purchase you might regret too much
 
Isn't this just a standard USB > MicroUSB cable? Not bad for the price, but I have at least a dozen around the house somewhere. Nearly every single one of my phones came with one.

all my hdmi cables in the house are ebay find usually under 5 dollars shipped.. no issues yet. i dont mind the 1.99 to try it.
 
I paid for a USB charger for my Zune HD for $0.99 on Amazon, and it ended up being a generic charger for other applications. I wonder if the product you have is just for general use as well. It may be a useful purchase, but in my experience with that and other Microsoft products, especially my Zune HD, it does cause some minor hiccups.

Mostly due to the electrical surges I believe that might affect things, but only in a subtle manner. Either way, shouldn't be too much of an issue if you plan to invest in more just in case.

Exactly! HDMI cable is just a bunch of isolated wires and two connectors. that's pretty much all. Of course, the type of conductor plays a big role, but come on, it works, and the difference is so minimal you wouldn't have noticed it.
 
bascally my thinking its a few insolated wires with a usb and a controller connection.. if it dosnt work its 1.99... its really not hard to mess up.

Conductivity does play a role. You must be kidding. I am an electrical engineer, and i know what is the difference. Of course, the good cables are overpriced and all, but they are eventually a whole lot better then the cheap ones.

I think he ment being able to see it. if you can see the difference between 2 different HDMI chords with each one using different wires, and conductors, and what else have you, then that sux lol. I would hate to be able to see imperfections in my love of movies and games knowing it was the wire lol

Well, as an example i can provide the inside of every electronic device - the pcb routes mostly are coated in high conductive material, as well as the CPU is mostly coated gold, as it is extremely data-transmissive. Compared to that, i guess a simple chord would mean nothing of course, and everything would be fine. And, you can test for yourself. Its not a huge amount of money after all.

we are talking about a simple charging cord people... not nasa space program stuff hear. worst case is it takes an extra 5 minutes to charge lol or it just slap dosnt work. guess what its 1.99 shipped its no biggie.

this is not some 24v race car system running off mill spec wiring harness with rare earth element trigger setups. its a dang charging cable

people need to stop jumping off the deep end... its only a cord.
