[section_title title=Closer Look]Closer Look
With this being an Xbox product the green is liberally applied to the box, although the white background may have some mistaking it for an Xbox 360 product.
Down the spine of the box we have a repeat of the specifications posted in the introduction.
The rear of the packaging is more of the same, although it’s welcome to see Venom push their social media channels as a method of communication additional to their website.
The contents of the package itself come in a plastic shell that isn’t too strong but poses no worries about storage and transportation and is certainly desirable over blister packaging. The first thing that strikes you about the device is that is in fact unlike the Xbox One controller in design. The included USB cable is also, rather oddly, mini USB meaning it doesn’t actually fit into the Xbox One controller.
The decision to go with a gloss finish on the docking station isn’t a desirable one by any means and certainly isn’t “…a polished black finish to match your Xbox One®controllers”. The gloss finish ultimately looks cheap and is a dust magnet to boot.
As you can see from the picture below, the batteries and the covers are matte like the Xbox One controllers.
The Venom logo is a slick touch to the compartments, giving them an understated but cool look.
The battery fits flush although the colour of the Venom gear is ever so slightly different from Microsoft’s controller, not that you’d notice during usage, mind.
The controller fits in the cradle perfectly, although mine is a bit lonely on its own.
It turns from red to green in 2 seconds but when you take it off charge and put it back on in 1 second it’s red again
yes because you would of used a tad of battery so it would charge it full up again
how long to charge mine has been charging for 4 hrs and still red light
how long should it take to charge mine has been on 4hrs and still a red light this is the second one and does the same thing
how long should they take to charge mines been on charge for 4hrs and still red this is the scene d one I’ve had that does the same thing
