Review on πŸ”Œ SZICT Support Charging: The Perfect Solution for MacBook Compatibility by Sean Tops

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Design flaws/inconveniences are described below

Confirmed (after multiple emails, replacement and eventually refund) Limitation/design flaw requires disconnecting and reconnecting USB-A cable. That means you can't leave the phone's charging cable plugged in without unplugging it, which activates it. The USB-C socket I used with my iPhone's MagSafe charging pad didn't have this problem, was constantly powered and ready to use as it should be, but the USB-A circuit goes to sleep, it unless you unplug the charging cable first. This is an odd design flaw and I doubt a similar Leviton product designed by American engineers would have had this flaw and ordered it. However, I have to hand the support over to the customer support team. They were quick, friendly and professional. After the new outlet found the same rare "design flaw" they admitted it was the problem and claimed that most of their competitors had "the same problem" and refunded me without contacting Revain customer service. You were good. There is no socket design yet, at least if you plan on using both sockets, USB-A and USB-C. I hope this review helps others as I don't post it often.

Pros
  • PD 3.0/2.0, QC 3.0
