Works well enough. Go for one of the universal docks if you use a case though.

Finally a dock for cheap!
Written by JP from Sainte-Julienne

I have to say KUDO's to Apple for FINALLY having released a dock for cheaper: Used to be around $50 WITH cable before If I am corr…Read moreect. I simply love the fact of not having to dish-out $50 for a dock + cable when I already have a cable...
Although I find it still pricy considering there is about $3 worth of parts packaging and labor, but hey, all Apple accessories sport a quite hefty price tag...
I still welcome the idea of selling the dock and the cable separately, they should do this for a lot of accessories that come in multi-parts - sell them in parts as well.
Too bad some reviewers seem dismayed by the fact they don't have a cable included, I guess they were not aware that the price of the dock use to be almost double when it came with the cable.

No cable?
Written by JH from VALRICO

This dock is a great idea and can be very handy for a work situation. It really irks me that I have to go find a connector cable b…Read moreecause one is not included in the package. I want to keep the dock ready at work, and keep a dock connector in my laptop bag for syncing and charging on the go. I find it very frustrating to purchase a seperate cable to power it up. Cables aren't that expensive, one should be included for the price of this accessory.

Not as good as the previous model
Written by RJ from Chicago
Jul 14, 2008
I like the way it looks, and how the phone fits into the dock, but I've had a huge problem with touching the phone anywhere on the…Read more top half and it becoming dislodged from the dock ever so slightly, disconnecting from the computer, and then reconnecting immediately. Its become a huge hassle especially with the new backing up before sync in iTunes. I'm not thrilled with this dock, compared with the previous version, and I will probably return it.

Just a dock
Written by SD from DURHAM

Pros:
- The viewing angle of the dock looks pretty natural when used on your desk, but also on the average night stand.
- Ea…Read moresy to dock and undock. Fits snugly, but not too tight
- Small and easy to take to an office
Cons:
- No extra cord
- Don't ask me how, but it's easy to knock over face forward. Wouldn't have been a problem if the "base" area was a little bigger
Overal not a bad solution, but I went with a all silicone cover. No te phone doesn't fit in the dock unless you uncover the bottom part of the skin. This could have been prevented if the connector had variable height options.
Without a cover the phone would scratch so I think I will get rid of the dock and just lay it flat.(382 of 452 people found this review useful)
