I bought this charger to take with me on a trip knowing that desk/desk space and availability of a power outlet in a hotel can be expensive. I also took the built-in USB voltage/current meter to verify that the advertised ratings matched the advertised specs (see photo below). If you have a "thick" case on your device, it most likely will not fit in the slot. Both my wife and I have an iPhone 7+ with a case (I have a battery case, it only has a thin protective cover) and luckily they both fit in. However, her iPad with a relatively thick case (the red device in the photo) did not fit, she had to put it on the table. We also had a Kindle Paperwhite with a case that didn't fit either. The second caveat is that the charger's USB-C output is NOT a full-fledged USB-C charger. This is no surprise as a USB-A to USB-C cable is included in the box. Many laptops or other devices that can be charged via USB-C operate at higher voltages (mine is a Surface Pro 7 which requires 12V). Full Specification USB-C enables "intelligent" charging, ie a USB-C charger with Full Specification recognizes the required voltage and supplies it. This charger only outputs 5 volts, so will NOT charge USB-C devices that require a higher voltage. The device comes with 2 Lightning cables (Apple), a Micro USB cable and a USB-C cable. As we had 3 Apple devices we had to bring an extra Lightning cable to charge whatever we wanted. The charger is relatively powerful for its size, but as more devices are added, the current available for each device decreases. Most "smart" devices themselves limit the charging current they can "take" (our iPad, for example, limits itself to around 2.5 amps). I tested three devices I had and documented the "current sharing" that happened when I connected multiple devices to the charger. When the iPhone 7+ is the only connected device, the charging current is approximately 5.27V at 1.84A. When an iPad is connected to the charger, the iPhone will charge up to 4.97V at 1.23A. For iPads and Kindle, iPhone charging speed drops to 5.01V at 1.16A. Despite the displayed resolution, the accuracy of the USB meter is approximately 0.1V and 0.1A. If the iPad is the only device connected, it charges with 5.23V at 2.05A. When the iPhone is added to the charger, the iPad drops to 4.94. v@1.74AWhen iPhone and Kindle are connected, iPad charging speed is reduced to 4.81V at 1.45A. With all three devices connected, the total charge current is just over 3 amps. So the specs in the description are pretty accurate, it just depends on how the total current is distributed. Just don't expect this device to be a "supercharger" for all your devices. I like that you can relatively cleanly concentrate the charging of your smart devices in a small area. For the sake of simplicity I will put 5 stars, it saves the socket from being occupied by several small or one large USB "stone".
