The idea of having a dock which can charge the phone as well as an extra battery outside the phone at the same time was very appealing to me, as my husband uses the cell phone for business and it gets a lot of use. He uses Nexus Galaxy phone with Hyperion Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus 3800mAh Extended Battery which makes the phone extra thick. I tested the dock with both regular slim battery and the extra thick extended battery.
I am attaching a collage of 4 photos that I will be referencing in this review.
The first photo shows that the dock did not fit the phone when it had the thick extended battery installed. Photo #2 shows the bottom of the phone and extra thickness this battery forms. The phone with the regular battery fit without problems.
Photo #3 shows the extended battery in the dock, the contacts of the battery did not line up with the contacts of the charger due to the thickness of the battery. The green light on the dock indicates that the dock is plugged in, not that the charging is happening.
Photo #4 shows a regular battery in the dock, and it the charging of the regular size battery worked without a problem.
I received this item for an honest review and shared both positives and negatives aspects of my experience with this dock.
Overall, if you have a phone with a regular size battery this device works without problems. If you use extended battery in your phone this charging dock is not for you.
You can find it on Amazon by following this link.
