This battery is interesting in order to recharge your phone. It can therefore serve for smartphones that hold only difficult day. So yes it is not cumbersome, that the integrated Mini USB cable is a very good thing. By cons do not expect to charge a tablet quickly turned on or tablet (that is a fair bit with an output of 1 A) and once again it stuck with large phones (with phone ON internal battery fully discharged). Otherwise the presence of led with charge status is a good idea. You can also forget it in a drawer and loaded back after a few days ready for use. The vacuum discharge is currently very slow.
