This review is from: Battery Pack Cover for Xbox 360 Controller (Electronics)
while i was aware that this was a generic replacement, i had at least expected it to look like the one pictured above. it has a very unsightly clear sticker on the outside. the edges of the sticker were rough and peeling so i thought it might just be a protective cover to prevent scratching during shipment. i was wrong. peeling the sticker up just made the cover look worse than before and left a horrible bumpy and sticky residue that even rubbing alcohol will not remove. as another reviewer said, it does take some muscle to get the batteries in and the cover snapped onto the controller but once its in it works just fine.

This review is from: Battery Pack Cover for Xbox 360 Controller (Electronics)
The pack I received was not the original type which comes from Microsoft with a new controller, but a knockoff with no label. The fit and finish is clunkier out of a cheaper plastic, which makes inserting/removing AA batteries difficult and it does not smoothly go into the controller or be removed from one.
Be warned, the item you may receive may NOT be the original OEM microsoft one which was pictured in the product page!

It was probably too good of a deal to begin with, but this cover just does not work. First, the photo pictured is for a black cover, the cover I received is white. Secondly, when you put batteries in the cover, they are nearly impossible to get out. I had to use a pair of pliers in order to get the batteries out. Thirdly, they cover does not fit into the controller very well and does not provide power to the controller.
In fairness, I have contacted the seller, but I don't think it is worth my time to pay $5 to send back a $4 product and then have to send my receipts to be reimbursed. I will chalk my $4 loss up to a learning experience and recommend that others think twice before ordering this product.
