Promising review: “Since I frequently forget to charge my device before I go out, I bought this portable charger for a convenient, wireless charging experience. The battery life seems to be sufficient for one charge or so, which is not surprising given its light, easy-to-carry nature.“ — Yue
Promising review: "It's 2023, and I bought this in 2020. This has been reliable all these years, it's a nice, small size, and I've had no problems with it. Good product and I highly recommend it." — C. Saddul
Promising review: "Wow this thing has changed my treadmill game! Simple to set up! I hated running before but now I am able to kill time mindlessly scrolling through TIKTOK!" — Christopher B
Promising review: "I am subject to falling and my doctor recommended that I keep my mobile on me at all times. This is the absolute best option I have found so far. The strap is thick enough to not dig into my neck and it keeps my phone exactly where I need it." — Janice
Promising review: "I really like this charger. I can recharge all 3 apple products at once. No extra cords to worry about. It acts like a stand keeping the phone upright. I can look at the phone screen without taking it off the charger. The best part for me is, I never forget putting on my apple watch since it sits right next to the phone. Totally convenient. The charger works very quickly. Takes no time to get my phone back up to 100%. IT is light weight to bring along on trips. I am very happy and recommend this product." — Janet Kennedy
Promising review: "It’s not elastic which I love, so it can’t fall off your fingers. We’ll made, sticks on the inside of your phone, but easily peels off. Worth the money if you lose/drop your phone a lot like me." — Lisa
Promising review: "I like to listen to youtube before I fall asleep. My neck and arms were always hurting. Lol. So my wonderful son bought me this. I just love it, gone are the sore arms. I put it on my nightstand and watch YouTube..I would recommend it." — Fortemazon Customer
Promising review: "I’m very happy with these long charging cables. I have bought other non-Apple charging cords before (6foot) and they were junk! They stopped working in only a few weeks. The 10 foot is a great length to reach any outlet. Definitely recommend!" — Chris G
Promising review: "Bought this off Amazon with little hope that it will last long and work like the reviews said. Boy was I wrong this screen protector was easy to install and it has held up so far in an industrial environment were you tend to get a lot of scratches on your screen. From the day I put it on until this day the screen protector looks exactly the same since I can’t see one scratch on it. Will definitely purchase again for sure" — Angel mantilla
Promising review: "Frankly I was skeptical that any phone stand could be well-built and sturdy for a bargain price. I was pleasantly surprised at my purchase. It has pads on the underside that hold it firmly on the desk. It also has pads on the cradle and back to keep the phone in place when on it. Best of all it allows the phone to be charged while in landscape or portrait. I plan to buy a second one for my workshop." — Lou Aymard
Promising review: "Purchased this for a friend who went on a cruise. They used it snorkeling and resort pools. They loved it so much and got some amazing pictures. I will definitely purchase again for future gifts." — Gail Harsha
Promising review: “I was just looking for a good pair of earbuds without having to pay a small fortune. Not even swinging for the fence, just something descent and budget friendly. I work in music production for a living, and let me tell you, they are by far the best sounding earburds/headphones I have ever used! Not to mention their waterproof capability. I haven’t taken a single shower without them ever since, yet they still work as great as the day they arrived. I love them and couldn’t recommend them more.” — David Bonilla Vélez
Promising review: "Great purchase. These work so much better with my iPhone than a previous set I used. Noise canceling works great. People I talk to say they can hear me much better also. They’re worth the extra money." — KSMoose
Promising review: "I was afraid this might not work with my heavy, rubber case, but it did! We have an over abundance of charging cables for our electronics and it is so nice to just toss my IPhone on this and walk away. Now, please make one for our 3 different IPads!" — Great product
Promising review: "What a perfect gadget for getting your phone clean. After touching who knows what while commuting to work, and it being that time of year everyone around you gets sick, this comes in handy. After the first use it looked great, and then I wiped it down with the sponge that came with it. I feel so much better about using my phone now." — Crystal Gardner
Promising review: "I bought these because I was tired of fingerprints on my iPad. However we use them for all our phones, laptop and iPads. They work amazing and it’s a good value for how many you get. Perfect to throw a few in your work bag, purse and car." — C. Foreman
