 Glad I bought it.Mar 08, 2010
By Sandra L. Baker

One of my biggest complaints is the battery life of the iPhone. This product is a great solution (at least until apple improves the battery life). I keep it on my desk at work. I can charge the phone as well as the spare battery at the same time (only when plugged into an outlet, only the phone charges if connected to the computer). At the end of the day, I put the spare in my bag and I don't have to worry about how much I use the phone while I'm out and about. I have used it quite often and have also come to the rescue of friends with a low charge.

 Decent dock, but has issues with casesJan 31, 2010
By Patrick Watson
As a dock, this product performs well as long as you use the provided Universal Dock inserts. However, if you happen to have a nice case that comes with a third party insert, the connection can be rather iffy. As long as you make sure to firmly press the iPhone into the dock, you'll be fine.
The supplied battery is merely ok. It charged my iPhone extremely slowly; in fact, I suspect that it charged the phone only slightly faster than the iPhone used power. Additionally, the battery fits very snugly to the iPhone. This requires one to remove any case from the phone, which is a pain.

Exactly Right!Jan 07, 2010

I was awaiting my baggage in an airport this fall and watched a woman frantically running around baggage claim with a wall charger in her hand looking for a place to plug in her dead or soon dying phone so she could make that critical, world-saving telephone call that everyone needs to/craves to make just after the plane lands. I will never forget the crazed look on her face as she frantically did her loops around baggage claim. There are really very few calls I need to make that badly but I had this innate need to avoid the same frightening thanatological problem and possibly frightening small children. So, I was unsure whether to spend a fair amount of money for this product. I was wrong, dead battery wrong! It is very well constructed and fits my 3G perfectly. The second battery compartment charges efficiently (didn't set a timer on the first full charge - sorry), retains a charge (no timer to measure the discharge rate - again, sorry), plugs into my phone, and provides the power to continue using my phone (didn't set a timer and run the charge to empty - really, I am sorry).
I have read enough reviews to notice that techie products are often reviewed by people who provide all kinds of data, numbers, rates, and comparisons with standard industry factors that I just do not understand. Good for them and keep up the excellent work. I, however moderately technically competent I may be, just like this product because it works just like it is supposed to work!

Works greatOct 27, 2009
I was looking for a combination docking station that would charge my iPhone, sync my iPhone and charge a small external battery pack for it for when the internal battery gets low (during the ocasional very long day with lots of iPhone use). The Kensington works great for that, my iPhone is sitting on my desk charging and synced with music I haven't listed to yet.
I'm very pleased so far.

Good, but could be betterJan 25, 2011
By Seypup
After buying this product for my nightstand, my alarm clock went to Goodwill. Why have all these extra devices? I had a backup battery alarm clock, but realized that the I phone does the same thing in less space.
PROS- no more alarm clock=more space, easy to view or you can turn screen off so that no light bugs you at night...SWEET!
batterv backup is great and works fast!! Took it on a trip where we were depleting our phone batteries almost everyday and it recharged fast and easily every time!!
easy to travel with as it is small and the cord comes off to prevent cord bending damage.
CONS- while it fit my standard case, it doesn't work with my I phone 3 in an otterbox.
- cord comes off of device so easily that sometimes it isn't charged because cord came off at night probably from minor jiggling of phone to check time or dog bumping into nightstand.
