But if I use it for other stuff and I run out of charge. How can I use it with my Xbox? Get a backup set of batteries? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STICK3Rboy Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 Just now, l33tmaniac said: But you can avoid the swap all by just having an inbuilt rechargeable battery. Isn't plugging in a USB cable easier and lesser cumbersome? In 30 mins your controller has enough charge and you can unplug and play for quite a bit longer. I don't like having a 5-6ft cable attached to my controller while I'm playing :\ 1 minute ago, l33tmaniac said: The question is why should I? No one is saying you should.

triggr happy ss Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 Just now, l33tmaniac said: So I need to pay about 700 bucks for two pairs of good AA rechargeable batteries. And another 700-1000 for the charger. Making the effective cost of the Xbox controller higher by 1.5k-2k? And this is acceptable? So your internal battery dies in 3-4 years ? You want to spend another 5k -6k on a new controller? Or 1000 bucks for 2 more pairs of internal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These things are built to last way longer. By your logic, mobiles shouldnt have them too since they are prone to dying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having someone or my dog disconnect it while crossing and pulling down the console is a bigger scare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use both controllers and I prefer the one with the batteries because I, personally, find it more convenient. It may not be the same to you and that's why it's called a preference.

Get a portable charger, put it in your pocket and use a short cable to charge. Win-win. The portable charger can be used for other purposes too.

Your preference is not the reason why MS does this. I have no issue with your choice, honestly. But supporting MS for their stupid decision and saying its valid.

Walker Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 Just asking, if MS released an Xbox with a controller that had an inbuilt battery sh*t would hit the fan ? I look forward to that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just cos I said something crappy about MS doesnt make me a PS fanboy. Typical of an xbot. Have owned both the X360 and Xbone X btw along with PS consoles. I have so issues with calling out the bullshit that Sony does like with this preorder fiasco.

dylanjosh Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 I love the build and feel of an Xbox controller. Fits in the hands really well. And yes love the weight too. But I completely agree they should have a charging option. Hate changing batteries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If MS took a decision that is in line with my preference, then yeah, I'll support that. 2 minutes ago, Walker said: Just asking, if MS released an Xbox with a controller that had an inbuilt battery sh*t would hit the fan ?
