Customer Reviews

Works good and a bargain
As stated this is a Sony product in the original package. It appears well made and charges my Sony P1i phone. It actually has 2 lights. The first is a ready light on the 12 V plug end that indicates the charger is plugged into the adapter in your auto (it does not hurt the battery of my vehicle to keep this plugged in all the time). The second light is on the other end (that attaches to your Sony phone) and can be turned on or off. It is fairly bright and can be used as a flashlight.

The one to get
assuming you can find it discounted. The Sony MSRP for this is high but if you can find it for $10 or so it is a much better bet then the "no-name brand" versions. This charger has the two port pass though connector that allows you to use the hands free headset while charging. It also has a nifty led "map light" built in to the connector as a bonus feature. The plug is solid feeling and has inset grips making it easier to hold when inserting or removing. IT also has a green led indicator in the shpar of the Sony Erricson "swirl" logo. Overall it gives the impression of being a well made item.

Breaks Easliy
We bought 2 of these and both broke within a few months of use. It seems that the plastic tabs that click into the phone are made of a more fragile plastic than the accessory cables that came with the phone. Its a shame because the pass through feature and light are cool features not usually found on generic adapters. We've since bought 2 generic adapters which have not broken in 2 years of use so it has to be the plastic on these Sony Ericsson branded adapters that is weak. You've been warned.
