Pavel Jelic Despite the fact that technological development is gradually encouraging us to stop using wires, we still cannot do without them, especially in the case of charging. Whether we charge our devices wired or wirelessly, in both cases we have to use charging adapters in addition to cables - either directly to charge the device itself, for example an iPhone, or to power a wireless charger. There are countless different adapters available on the market with different features. Some offer high performance, others more connectors, etc. In this review, we will take a look at the classic Swissten multi-port chargers, which offer a lot of music for little money.

Official specification
Swissten offers several different types of charging adapters, including very ordinary ones with a single output for charging only one device. However, these chargers may not be very practical if you are charging multiple devices at once. That's exactly why there are multi-port chargers, which are only a few crowns more expensive than ordinary ones and are definitely worth more. Specifically in this sector, you can purchase classic Swissten chargers with three or four connectors. As for the three-port USB-A charger, it provides a maximum output of 15 W (1x USB 5V/2,4A; 2x USB 5V/2,4A; 3x USB 5V/1A), the four-port version then a maximum of 20 W (1x USB 5V /2,4A; 2x USB 5V/2A; 3x USB 5V/1,33A; 4x USB 5V/1A). The price is only 259 crowns or 349 crowns, you can use it anyway 10% discount code (see below), which makes you will get it for 233 crowns or 314 crowns – and that is already a very low and interesting price.

Packing
The reviewed charging adapters are packed in traditional boxes, which have a white-red color. On the front side, you will find the adapter itself pictured, along with information about maximum power, etc. On the side, there is additional information, and on the back, instructions, along with specifications. After opening the box, all you have to do is pull out the plastic carrying case, from which you can just click the adapter itself and you can start using it immediately. There is nothing else in the package and in the case of the adapter there is nothing to be surprised about.

Processing
In recent months, I have had the honor of reviewing several different adapters from Swissten, and as far as the quality of the work is concerned, I still have nothing to complain about. Specifically, the reviewed charging adapters are made of hard white plastic, with Swissten branding printed on one of the sides. On the bottom side there are printed specifications, i.e. mainly the input and output values, and on the front side you will of course find three or four USB-A connectors, which provide a combined output of up to 15 W and 20 W, respectively.

Personal experience
You can use classic charging adapters from Swissten practically anytime and anywhere. Primarily, it's great that they give you the ability to charge multiple devices at the same time, with the fact that you only take up one space in the socket or extension cable, instead of three or four. As for personal experience, I have nothing to complain about - the more devices you charge with the adapter, the lower the individual performance will be. Therefore, when charging one device with both adapters, you can reach a maximum of 12 W (5V/2,4A), after connecting other devices, the power naturally decreases.

Of course, it is necessary to mention that these are not purely fast charging adapters, mainly due to the absence of USB-C, although you will be able to charge some Android phones faster. These reviewed adapters will probably serve you best when charging multiple devices at night, as high power is not used and the battery life does not decrease faster. Apart from that, it is also suitable for use at the work desk, where you need to have charging cables with different connectors available, i.e. Lightning, USB-C and microUSB. If you don't have such cables, you can get them add to cart and also get a discount on them.

Are you looking for classic charging adapters that you don't want to spend a fortune on? Do you find it uneconomical to buy an original Apple adapter with a single connector, when you can have three or four outputs for a similar price? If so, then you can stop looking, because you have just stumbled upon the real thing. The classic Swissten adapters can be used in countless different situations and will certainly never leave you wanting, even if you need to charge several devices at once. In addition, they will not take up space in your socket unnecessarily, and another advantage in some cases is just slower charging, which does not result in a faster loss of battery life. With a 10% discount below, both adapters will be really cheap.

I've been looking for a long time, but I couldn't find 4xUSB-A with a total output of 50W. These look nice, but for me the performance is weak.
