Does it charge while plugged into a PC? Description says it does, but seems like when I connect the device at home it doesn't charge?

The device package comes with an attachable plug adapter. I just plug the device into an electrical outlet and it charges my smartphone and my extra battery just fine.

No it doesn't. And the dock actually bent my prong in my charging port. A big waste of my money.

Idk, haven't tried it. I keep the dock plugged in my living room. I rarely use my computer...

I keep mine plugged in the wall socket but I unhooked it and plugged it in my computer's USB port and the red charging indicator light lights up...the same as it does when the speaker is plugged in the wall socket....so, I'd say yes it does charge from the computer usb port. This speaker has awesome sound. I purchased based on Phillips name and other audio products of theirs I purchased and everyone I show my speaker off to is impressed. Go for it!

Your question was when plugged in...in computer would it charge the phone?Hmmmm...okay honestly I really dont like to assume plus your question is a bit unclear but if I had to assume I believe you are referring to the Dock...plugging the Dock into the computer...and if so will it charge the phone...just to clarify! After testing the theory myself I can definitively say No It Will Not Charge the Phone!Using a data cable or a micro USB plug for your phone....you can actually plug the Dock into your Computer or Personal PC or even your Laptop....but all 3 results just will not charge your phone....I hope this helps!

The end that charges the item has to be plugged into a USB receiver. Either a PC or an iPhone plug that plugs into the wall. To add to my last review... I must say that after re-charging it and using it a few times, it seems to be holding a charge way longer then the first time, making it more handy to have for emergencies! I'm considering purchasing another for my teenager. Hope this helps!

If you plug it into a computer that is on, not in sleep mode, it should start charging right away. No tricks.

it's mini usb with a wall charger. It is proprietary - you must use the wall charger that is supplied or it will not charge. It does not charge while plugged into the usb port of the computer either.

The unit is charged via micro USB from an external source. (PC, AC Wall charger, etc...) I hope this helps to answer your question.

Hi, Pat, The speaker does work while it is plugged in and being charged. I haven't tried to charge my cell phone from the USB port on the speaker yet, so can't answer that question. Overall, a great little speaker, especially considering it's priced under $50.00.

Mine does. My issue is that it doesn't indicate "charged" - just keeps charging until you unplug it.

yes, but I've been disappointed as it doesn't charge while plugged in...not sure if it's a fault in mine or if this is just a lousy design flaw.

Yes and no. It does charge, but thru a usb port. If needed you can always unplug it from the usb from your computer or laptop to a wall outlet if you have an extra usb wall charger but you will not have access to your phone thru USB.

I generally plug mine into the computer. If you have a Wall adapter , you can charge that way as well. It doesn't come with one though.

Make sure your charging cord is plugged in to AC and not a USB port. If you do plug it in with USB it'll attempt to set up a connection with the PC or laptop, which is a good thing actually, but it won't charge.

It does charge it, that's the device I have. I do not, however, know what you mean by 'Sync' with it. Do you mean to ask if it syncs with other devices connected?

In order for it to charge you have to plug it into an outlet with a usb port (computer, cell phone charger, etc...) I just plug mine into one of my cell phone chargers to charge it.
