Four months after this trip, I think I have enough experience of this adapter to share with you. At my office, my colleagues use this continuously, of course, getting the same great experience as I had during my trip. So what is special about this international travel adapter made by Xcentz?
Xcentz Universal Travel Adapter: Essential Accessory for Globetrotters
I had a firm belief (bordering on obsession) that any smartphone accessory has to be travel-friendly. From design to compatibility and universality to performance – if the accessory doesn’t meet international standards, a traveler would instead discard that piece in a trash can. This is not the case with Xcentz power adapter.
Design
When I travel alone, I travel light. And this is how everybody would like to roam around. The compact design of this adapter is a key feature. It doesn’t occupy much space in your bag – whether it is your fanny pack, duffle bag, suitcase, backpack or a briefcase. I was surprised to see the dimensions (2.8″x2.4″x2″) as Xcentz has packed four levers on one side. When you push and slide each, male plugs come out; next, you can insert those plugs in the corresponding female plugs.

Universal Compatibility
Travelers do not just keep smartphones and tablets; they also carry digital cameras, MP3 players, electric shaver, gaming controllers, and other gadgets. I was no exception! This adapter saves me from begging a charger from my fellow travelers. I could easily charge all my devices with its four ports 4.8A USB output with high speed. I cannot go further without mentioning its Smart Xpower feature, which can fast charge your phone battery from 30% to 80% in just 40 minutes. When you are charging other devices, remember that the adapter cannot convert voltage. Also, remember that the adapter does not support high power appliances like irons and hair dryers.
Safety measures
Mishaps never wait for an invitation, they just happen at any time, anywhere in the world. Xcentz has made this power adapter using xPower technology to protect your devices from over-current, overload, short-circuit, and high-temperature. This product is ROHS, CE, and FC certified to ensure the safety of your gadgets.
Is something missing?
You cannot connect your USB-C cable with this adapter as it doesn’t have any USB-C port. Moreover, it is not possible to insert the external plug into the British type female plugs on this adapter. Specifications
