Let me start by saying this charger has been a lifesaver for my daily commutes. The retractable design is genius – no more tangled cables or messy dashboards! I can pull out exactly the length I need (up to 80cm) and it snaps back like magic when I'm done.

The fast charging is legit. My Galaxy S23 goes from 20% to 80% in about 30 minutes while I'm driving. What's cool is it shows my car's voltage on the little display – turns out my alternator's been running at 14.2V, which is good to know!

However, there's one quirk: the USB-C cable sometimes disconnects if my phone moves around too much on bumpy roads. It's not a dealbreaker, but I've learned to wedge my phone between the seat and console for stable charging.

The swivel feature lets me position it perfectly in my Honda Civic's tight cigarette lighter space. And when friends with iPhones ride along? No problem – the USB-A port handles their devices while I use the USB-C.

After three months of use, the retraction mechanism still works smoothly (though occasionally needs a gentle nudge). For $25, this has been way better than those cheap gas station chargers that die after a month.
