So does this charge the phone and an extra battery at the same time, or is the back slot just a battery holder?

it charges both your phone and the extra battery at the same time you just have to make sure you put the extra battery in correctly so that the prongs are touching the correct part of the battery

Yes it charges both at the same time! It's a great docking station & sleek. If you shine a light in the space where the battery goes you can see where it attaches to the battery. I use it everywhere. I haven't had any problems with it. It's a great buy.

I have not used the battery charger, but looking at it I can see two prongs on the bottom, so that should be a battery charger. I don't have a second battery to try this, but when I get my hands on another battery in a few weeks I will post an update.

My charger doesn't work at all. The port to insert the plug is broken. It was that way when I received it in the mail.

It charges both. I believe it actually charges the phone first then charges the spare battery.

Yes you can charge both the device and phone at the same time. The charging device will take prority during charge if the phones battery is low.

Our Unity Case adds another battery to the phone, you will still be able to charge both battery and the phone at the same time.

No it will not charge phone and battery at same time. The cradle is just that, a cradle for placing phone in.

You still plug your charger into the phone just like you normally do. It will the battery inside the phone and the extra one at the same time. I love this anker unit. Has eliminated the need for a charge mid day. It also protects the screen well too.

Can you elaborate? This allows you to charge your phone while charging another battery. The extra battery can be charged externally (without the phone).

Just the back over case is included, you need to buy the wireless charging pad. I have both and I'm very happy with the combination. Just set it down on the charging pad when not using it and it charges quickly and effortlessly.

Yeah. The phone plugs into the slot, and the charging cable comes out from behind it.

It's supposed too, but mine only charged the phone my case is always dead and doesn't work. And it overheats my phone like really bad. I honestly wouldn't recommend anyone to buy it. & its really bulky & heavy.

It has been a good back up and works well. It charges the existing battery in the phone while providing the additional power.

It can charge while in the phone as well as in the charger that comes with the batteries.

You can use both ports ... I have had 2 phones charging before at the same time

The backup battery is built into the case, but I would not buy this the case battery does not hold a charge at all and does not fully recharge the phone battery when its used

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

So you can charge your phone at the same time as charging the spare battery.

You can charge it either way you want. It should operate identically to the original battery (aside from capacity of course). I've only been charging it inside the phone, and I haven't had any overheating problems with it so far.

Do you realize that this is not a dock, it is just a phone holder? It will not charge your battery while sitting there. Other than that I don't know the answer to your question.
