Azpen Dockall D108 Wireless Charging Dock

I am not happy with this product. I purchased it to play music and charge my phone in my office. I have only used it for a few days but have run into numerous problems already. First, the positives: 1-It looks fine 2-The sound quality is pretty good (when it works) Now, the negatives: 1-Battery charges very slowly. This is my first wireless charger so I don't have any other experience but my iPhone X charges at approximately 1/10 of the speed that it would charge via USB. 2-Phone gets very hot when charging. I tried the usual fixes but this is a constant. 3-As others have pointed out, when the product is turned on, there is a loud annoying voice announcing that it is on and that Bluetooth is connected. This is completely unnecessary. 4-Bluetooth disconnects if not in use for a (relatively short) while. WHY???? 5-Bluetooth occasionally disconnects even while connected. 6-Often difficult to get music to start playing. I don't think this is a iPhone or Music issue as I didn't have any problem with my previous music player. 7-Music "pauses" and stops playing randomly. Again, I didn't have this problem with my previous player. 8-Volume randomly fluctuates when reconnecting to Bluetooth. I am not the one to write reviews and rarely give a one-star rating but felt impelled to do both this time. Update: I am continuing to use this piece of garbage and all of the above still remains true. The latest issue is that the phone gets so hot when charging that it stops charging and I get a message on the phone that charging will only continue when the phone cools off. BUYER BEWARE. Update #2 (January 2023): All of the above gripes still apply. Now, as others have experienced, the charger only intermittently works and I suspect that it shortly will not work at all. Update #3 (April 2023): It does not seem to be able to charge an iPhone 14. Update #4 (February 2024): It crapped out on me despite me hardly using it. Good riddance.
