Recommended sold in a choice of black, silver, blue or red, the Eze Charge couldn’t be simpler. It’s an aluminium tube with space for a single AA battery. The 10 adaptors cover most phones, and included our Nokia and mini USB, but no iPod dock. With the three-inch flying lead plugged in, the phone was revived immediately, and could be used straight away. But its price and lack of battery held it back.
