The front contains a Qi2 magnetic phone charger.

And I know its the front because it would be weird to have your phone pointed away from you.

On the back are three AC outlets, two USB-C ports, and two USB-A ports.

However, if your desk is more open, it will appear messy and distract from its compact shape.

They’re not easily accessible enough to use blindly.

I always needed to stand up and peek around the back to get a cable plugged in.

8-in-1 Power: with 1 magnetic pad, 3 AC outlets, 2 USB-C, and 2 USB-A ports, experience the convenience of charging 8 devices at once, meeting all your power needs.

I wish the layout had been switched so the AC outlets were beneath the USB ports.

With eight different connections, there are a lot of combinations for how much power each port delivers.

If more devices are plugged into the other USB ports or magnetic charger, that number goes down.

With every port and spot occupied, that USB-C power will go down to 20W.

Right now, there arent really any others, so its still essentially made for iPhone.

My iPhone 15 Pro was able to charge in portrait or landscape, soStandBy modeworked just fine.

This model replaces the previous 637 with the same shape and connection types.

The power hub is compact enough to sit nearly anywhere, while still having eight charging areas.

Its a worthwhile consideration.

The features make it a solid value.

Its look will really come down to individual desk layouts and the location where it’s being used.
