What you're actually getting
For under nine quid, this is a three-in-one wireless charging station from Aowin, a brand you've almost certainly never heard of. Comes with a 1.5m cable and a 20W brick in the box. Charges your phone, earbuds case, and presumably a smartwatch all at once. On paper, that's a fair amount of kit for the price.
Honestly, the appeal is obvious. If you've got a cluttered bedside table with three separate cables snaking around, the idea of one flat pad doing the lot is genuinely attractive. I get it.
Where it gets a bit murky
Here's my reservation. Aowin isn't a name with any track record I can point to. No Amazon reviews to dig into, no real-world longevity data. At £8.49, you're not risking the mortgage, but wireless chargers from unknown brands can be hit or miss on actual output speeds and, more importantly, long-term reliability. The 20W brick is a nice inclusion, but whether the pad itself delivers consistent wattage to all three spots simultaneously is genuinely unknown.
This is a buy-and-find-out situation, which is fine if you're relaxed about it.
Who should bother
If you're an iPhone and AirPods user with a compatible watch, and you just want something tidy on your nightstand without spending £40 on a Belkin, this is a reasonable punt. The community heat on HotUKDeals suggests plenty of people agree.
If you need certainty around charging speeds or you're powering something critical overnight, stick to a known brand. Simple as that.
