Reviews for Apple 12W USB Power Adapter

An xlnt charger, best I've used so far. Took overseas, worked great.
Faster charging than others I've used, xlnt for simultaneous charging of multiple devices.

The charger works great, it charged my iPad and iPhone super fast but I cannot understand why on earth the cord is so short. With such great products it just seems ridiculous to go cheap on something this basic. At the very least apple should have a longer cord as an accessory option.

It charges fast after I finally got a cable to charge my phone. The previous chargers I had bought from apple came with cables. I would recommend this over the smaller chargers if you need a quick charge. I can get nearly a full charge on my phone in an hour with this.

No actual cord is included. You need a separate purchase.

The cords available are so short that they're barely functional to reach from my desk to the outlet. To use the iPad away from your desk while charging, plan on sitting on the floor near the outlet.

This product sorely needs an extension.
(The previous charger adapter that had an excellent three prong extension attached has been discontinued (duh!). I have one and it's so useful I wanted another. No luck.)

This product is another example of form over function and the misconception that minimalism equals simplicity.

I have a bunch of other power adapters, they have generally all failed, and all my electronics run on filtered power. This adapter has been my mainstay. For those of you who think that the unit is too big, try a power strip, fits behind my desk easily. I also have one at work, which fits under my desk nicely. Charges fast, this is the best I've ever found. I also use this to power USB hubs and my Raspberry Pi. I have about 4 of these now.

I like this charger much better than the other one charges a lot faster only takes two and a half hours to full charge on my ipad mini

This charger is great. It charges really fast on the iPod touch!

The body of the charger is compact enough to fit into the outlet without hogging up the space that is needed for other neighboring plugs to fit properly in their place. The prong that connects to the lightning port of the iPad is symmetrical, making the user not have to ascertain which way it connects. Another minor pro would be that the color of the cord is white; allowing it to be very easy to see if when the cord slips accidentally behind or below furniture in a dark place that is surrounded with other dark cords. However the length of the cable is a little less than what I need when I am charging it and using my ipad at my desk. With all of this mind, it quite simply gets the job done.

This came with my iPad 4th Generation and it works just as expected. It's the same size as the previous 10W adapter but charges more quickly. I can tell you that this does charge the iPhone much faster than the 5W adapter that the iPhone comes with.

What else is there to say? It works and looks great.
