It is quite handy for getting his phone just place can put on the charging station. Then, when the phone rings, you just take the phone in hand, without having to pull only one cable. On the desk, the station is an optical gain. Charging takes a little longer than wired, but that's normal at induction charging.
Although my cradle like well, I do not know if I would buy again. The price is about 60 euros but quite high and the size of the gain in comfort is then not again. I'd find 30 Euro as appropriate.
