A cheap accessory is not a bargain if it does not work correctly with the device you already own.
- Device: What exact phone, tablet, laptop, console, or accessory will this connect to?
- Standard: Is the connector, charging standard, wireless protocol, or port type compatible?
- Power: For powered products, are the supported wattage and voltage appropriate?
- Fit: Will dimensions, cases, vents, cameras, buttons, or ports interfere with use?
- Value: Does the accessory solve a recurring problem instead of adding another gadget to manage?
