How to Choose the Best USB 4 Port Charger

Having multiple gadgets in the form of smartphones, tablets and smart watches leaves us in a mess full of knotted cords. To avoid this trouble, there’s a brilliant simple solution – USB portable charging station. With one of these, you can plug in and power several devices. Let’s review some of the necessary features that a portable charging station should have.

• Compatibility is of utmost importance. Not every phone can fit in every USB slot, and not every charger can fit into every electrical outlet on the wall. There’s a significant difference between regions when it comes to electrical outlets, and this may require you to purchase an additional adapter.
• The number of ports a USB charger varies from model to model. The most frequently used one is a USB 4 port charger and those that are used in cars have one or two ports. Think ahead. Even if you own only one or two devices, buy a charger with more ports. You never know if you’ll be getting a new gadget any time soon.
• Quality should be at the top of your priority list as with the increasing popularity of portable charging stations, there’s a decrease in quality on a global level. For that reason, make sure you buy from a reputable web site that offers a top quality USB 4 port charger.
• These chargers can come in multiple forms. The form of choice depends mainly on your personal preference and the intention of it’s use. Wall chargers are basically plugged into the wall without an extension cord. Corded chargers on the other hand, have an extension cord which makes them more flexible and gives them a slight advantage over wall chargers. Organizers for charging stations are larger in size, they are also far more costly, so my personal advice is to shy away from them. 
• Port amperage is also vital when it comes to selecting a suitable port charger. The speed with which your devices will charge depends on it and this can vary from port to port. Standard USB amperage outputs are 1A, 2.1A, and 2.4A. Devices with a lengthy battery life will usually take longer to charge, so you want them charged on your higher amperage ports. Aim for chargers that have a higher amperage. 

Look at the reviews! Seriously, this is so underrated. The cost of the chargers can be quite dear. Make sure you read a few reviews about the charger you consider buying first – it will only take you a couple of moments, don’t buy blindly. After all, it is better to be safe than sorry.
