Does it charge the device at the same time?

Um, no. It just runs on batteries so there's no way for it to charge your phone

I don't believe so. It's just a speaker....& a darn nice sounding one for the price. I am impressed & very pleased with mine

Yes it can do both simultaneously. You can charge multiple devices and plug this power bank cable into AC outlet for charging the device itself.

it did not work. it would only work if it was plugged in and charging at the same time. buyer beware

Not when the pocket port is completely dead but once it has at least 1 bar of power then yes you can charge both at the same time.

No it doesn't charge and work simultaneously. I wrote a previous response in detail as to this feature and a few others. Check it out...I generally like this product though.. I hope knowing this helps

Yes it will charge both at the same time-- it has both a USB charger for the ipad2 and a microUSB cord for the phone.

No, you can not charge a device and use it at the same time. Doing this will blow your device up and the battery pack will explode and burn you house down.

most certainly! I have had two devices charging at the same time with no problem. Certainly one item charges faster but all in all the charger is real quick on recharges and you shouldn't have a problem good luck!

There is only one USB port so you can only charge both devices at the same time if you have a splitter. Otherwise you can only charge one device at a time.

No, but it charges my notoriously finicky-to-charge Samsung Galaxy S3 and my Nook HD+ at the same time.

Hello, yes you can charge 2 devices simultaneously. If you only use the blue 2.1A output, then the output current is 2.1A; and if you only use the 1A output, then the output current is 1A; if you charge 2 devices simultaneously, the total output is 2.1A.

yup, works fine charging both at the same time. Make sure you got one bank to one battery and the other bank to the second battery(in other words, don't mix the two banks from the charger up).

Yes you charge both at the same time, second battery and phone or either by of the two alone

It connects through the headphone jack. I would assume you could have it charging at the same time. I have not ever tried to. I bought these for my kids.

Yes it does..so that you can charge one battery on the charging unit and at the same time charge the one in your phone .

Hi PeterYes, you are quite right. I hadn't tried that but my unit will not do both at the same time. In practice I have a dual USB charger so the need has never arisen. Regards Richard Allan.

Yes, I powered both my ultrabook and my iphone 4 at the same time while charging. The charger was able to maintain the battery at 100% with those two devices plugged in.
