  Xbox 360 Quick Charge Kit rocks and shocks
Time: 04:03 EST/09:03 GMT | News Source: Joystiq | Posted By: Brian Kvalheim

Here's the 30-second review on the just-released Xbox 360 Quick Charge Kit. * FAST: It charges batteries fast (two hours per battery) * SEXY: It's sleek, small, and well-designed. It can be placed in an out-of-the-way spot. * BETTER: The wired Play and Charge Kit that's been available since launch is inferior and annoying compared to the Quick Charge Kit because the play-and-charge cables muck up the clean look of the beautiful Xbox 360 controller with a mess of tangled, ugly cords. This kit solves one of our chief annoyances with the Xbox 360 wireless controllers. * EASY: Like any good charger, the LEDs indicate when the battery is charging. Each of the two LEDs (shown above) glows a steady red or green depending on the state of the battery that's charging. Batteries snick-snap into place easily and are simple to remove as well. The unit is smart enough to automatically power down after batteries have been topped off. * BOTTOM LINE: Free yourself from the tyranny and mess of cables and pick up a Quick Charge Kit. * VALUE: Microsoft's being coy about pricing (for now), but this is worth at least as much as two of the now-antiquated Play and Charge Kits. We're guessing it'll come in at between $30 and $50. If that guess is accurate, it's worth the money.

AW: Microsoft Confirmed on Sunday that the price would be $29.99 Retail.
