Charging is done relatively quickly for a battery of this capacity, and it can charge between 2 or 3 times the phone, which is very correct.
Small flat, I happened that the battery no longer wants to charge the phone after having moved a little the cable connected to the phone (I do not know if the contact is not very good especially with my phone (a Ativ S) or if it is in general, but the only way to re-charge the phone and reconnect the cord into the slot on the battery and reconnect the phone. In short, I can hardly move my phone without careful not move too much yarn.
But otherwise this battery is very good and allows to take a good package of energy with you everywhere, even to forget that it has been in the pocket;)
