I was skeptical when I bought this iHome IC3 charging dock with enhanced stereo speaker sound. At first I thought it was for an iPh*ck, but the box had a little green android across the cradle face so I was relieved. Being the skeptic that I am, I was expecting to return it but it was a surprisingly a good buy for the price and above average quality.

The microusb adapter is adjustable in a guide track at the base of this unit. Even though it allows the S3 to wiggle slightly, it sits in the cradle fine and has plenty of room I would think for any size case you may be wearing. I have a TPU silicone plastic case and it has plenty of room to spare. It is also made to cradle tablets.

The speaker volume impressed both me & my daughter (bought it for her for college). The music quality is damn good if you're not an anal audiophile. You can listen to music while it charges. You can even play music on 4 AA batteries but it will not charge the phone from them - only while plugged in.

I give it 8.5 out of 10.

The scale from the render is way off from reality or that is a tiny tablet. Looks like a box from a kiddy inflatable water slide.

Yea, you gotta' love those box pics. Maybe there was a size on the box and I missed it - Size: JUMBO

It needs a warning like a car mirror
