Most USB wall chargers that have lots of charging ports, like in the 5 to 6 Port range, have all their charging ports quite close together.
This kind of design is very prevalent with lots of USB wall chargers on the market. However, even though it’s to make a wall charger that has lots of charging ports more compact, the closeness of charging ports can result in things looking unorganized when you have lots of devices connected to the USB charger.
In this case, this iClever 6 Port Wall charger is designed very differently than most USB wall chargers that also have 6 charging ports because its charging ports have more space in-between them, and even though it’s larger, we think it’s necessary for a better user experience.
