[Review] iPhone USB Sync and Cradle Charger

[Cody Overcash]

Wirelessground.com had kindly provided me with their iPhone USB Cradle. Synchronize and recharge your iPhone with the iPhone USB Sync and Charge Cradle (with AC Charger). The USB Docking Cradle holds your iPhone at a comfortable reading angle and provides convenient access on your desk. Charge and synchronize data simultaneously when connected to your MAC or PC. The black finish matches your iPhone perfectly

Likes

• Looks good.
• Chaging from the wall or the computer.
• The cradle has sync capability
• LED indicator tells you when the cradle has power.
• Stable. This cradle isn't going to tip over easily.

Dislikes

• On occasion the sync will fail for me, estimated 5% of the time.
• No audio out port. If it had an audio out I don't think I could ask for more.

Conclusion

This cradle is a nice third party solution for docking your iPhone. At $22.95 it is half the price of the iPhone Dock from Apple.com. I would personally be completely content if this dock had an audio out. Currently I use this cradle at my office, where it looks nice on my desk, and looks a lot better than just plugging my iPhone into the wall. I also have no need for a audio out at my office so this cradle fits my purposes perfectly. I have no major issues with the cradle and am pleased with it thus far.

try using the base station directly plugged into a USB port, not thru a hub.

It doesn't really matter what OS anyone is on because it's all personal taste. The GUI and compatibility is different to different people. Personally I have a windows desktop and a windows laptop, but I'm thinking about getting Macbook sometime soon for a nice change and a little more power. I just hate it when people argue over about which is better.


Anyways, Nice Review!

will it fit something with a hard case on it?

[MadAria]

BTW the CellularNation version does not come with a USB wall plug adapter. Shipping was decent coming from Hong Kong. I should have done more research but overall I am happy with the item. Looks good on my office desk next to my PC

While the original one looks better sitting next to my iMac

[questioncom]

wonder if my phone will fot. i have the switch easy capsule on it

The one that comes with your iphone has all the features this one has.. I don't see a reason in spending the extra money on a new one unless I really felt it necessary that it's color was black.

I don't really see the point in buying this, the iphone comes with a supersexy one, and has audio out, which was the only main dislike in the review. And best of all, you need not pay a penny for the supplied iphone one.
