Free AA Batteries Included With Xbox One

Xbox One Controller

Major Nelson forgot to mention in his Xbox One unboxing video that the console comes with free batteries.

Here’s what he announced on his official twitter account:

One thing I forgot to mention in the #XboxOne unboxing: 2 AA batteries for the controller are included in the box

If you’re like me, changing batteries all of the time can be a pain. Much like the Xbox 360, the Xbox One will has a “Play and Charge” kit so you can use rechargable ones. Although this is an additional $24.99.

Do you think Microsoft should have opted to use rechargable batteries for the Xbox One in the first place?

One thought on “Free AA Batteries Included With Xbox One

  1. On of the things I hated about the 360 controller were the batteries… Not only is it pretty outdated but it’s a pain in the ass to change those damn batteries (that little compartment which holds them sucks).
