Great Little Charger
User: Brian J, Jun 8, 2011
Pros: Energy Star
Cons: -
I purchased this charger to charge an iPod touch and it works great. The charger also works with my Blackberry and my Zune HD. The design of the charger is inspired by unibody design electronics, as the back (with prongs sticking out) and the sides are all one single piece of shiny plastic. The matte front piece is the other piece of plastic in this design. This makes the charger feel very solid. Also the design is really nice. In my opinion, it is the best looking design for a charger on the market. Unfortunately, Blackberry chose not to include a plastic cap to cover the prongs to prevent damage.
According to Blackberrys website, this charger is Energy Star compliant. However, I would always recommend removing the charger from the wall outlet when not in use. The charger remains relatively cool when compared to the old, folding blade style Blackberry charger. One minor complaint is that after an hour or so of charging, the charger sometimes emits a high pitch noise. However, you can only hear it when near the charger. I suspect that this may be present in most other chargers.
Pros:
-Solid Feel
-Great Looking Charger
- USB Charging allows this charger to work with Blackberry, Zune, iPod, ect. (provided that you have the USB Cable)
- Energy Star
- Great Price
- Much less heat than previous charger (folding blade)
Cons:
-Slight high pitch noise emitted after an hour or so of charging
- No plastic cover included to protect the prongs
