New Xbox One Videos Detail The Console's Hardware Accessories
In these new promotional videos videos from Microsoft, you will see close up shots and details about the Xbox One's controller, headset, and play and charge kit.
The videos also reveal small interesting details, like how the play and charge kit has an LED charge status indicator, and the headset indicates when the mute button is activated with a similar LED light.
Check out all three videos below.
Our Take
Maybe it's weird, or maybe I am just excited about new hardware, but I really like that the mute button on the headset has a light indicator when it is active. It will make it so much easier to tell if you currently have yourself muted. It's a minor annoyance – being unsure if I am on mute without a closer look – but it's one I run into enough that it makes me excited that there will be a light indicator.
