Very handy with a 2nd battery (Samsung Galaxy S.3). In addition, it avoids the night to keep the phone plugged. In the morning I go with 2 full batteries. But critics, but at this price ...: 1 / careful to calibrate the battery on the support, lemboitement is suitable but a little weak, especially with a wall outlet. 2 / lateral guidance is bad, be careful to align the terminals stop, otherwise the contacts do not come across either here will not load, either here separators damage your main battery. Indeed, this charger allows Samsung to receive several battery models that do not have the same width. 3 / Led indicator: purple is "charging", blue is "loaded" (!?). that's all. 4 / 500mA with it is less powerful than the original charger S3, so it is better about 5 to 6 hours for a full charge.
