The Good
While I was testing out the Eoso Desktop Charger there were so many things that impressed me about it. Right away I was glad it has a small footprint, and honestly I would take less power per charge if the footprint is much smaller (and 40W is nothing to scoff at). I also appreciate the fact that it comes with “Intelligent Technology”, which essentially means: if you reach full charge on any device you plug in, it will stop charging that device. I also can definitely appreciate the look of the charger itself. It is aesthetically pleasing unlike many other desktop chargers. It also has that coveted premium feel in the hand. The circuitry has been designed with safety and efficiency in mind. As a result this ensures protection against: over-heating, and over-charging.
The Bad
The Eoso Desktop Charger was solid overall, however there are some things that I just can’t let slide. The thing that bugged me was: the black model I was sent has a sort-of matte finish. This translates to this charger being a finger-print magnet. This however, was not a deal-breaker to me, and they offer this model in white as well.
The Ugly
I am glad to say I found nothing about this desktop charger to be a deal-breaker. Honestly even the bad thing could be considered “nit-picky”

Final Thoughts
This Eoso desktop charger will be my daily driver for my desktop charging needs for the foreseeable future. My iMac only comes with 4 USB slots, so I found myself in the market for a desktop charger for my charging needs. While it doesn’t have any revolutionary features, it still somehow stands out in the crowded desktop charger field, because it’s solid in every way that matters. It looks great, and provides a great charge which is its primary function. It even has small footprint, and can be tucked away fairly easily. It’s also inexpensive especially when pitted against comparable competitors. This desktop charger is good enough to make the competition step its game up( I’m talking to you Anker)! When this happens it is great because we as the consumers win.
