In my previous post, I mentioned about the Powerskin Battery Charger for Micro-USB. I've also mentioned about the problem that I faced. The flexi-tip of the Powerskin could not accommodate the Otterbox casing that I was using for my Samsung S4 as the flap covering the charging port was in the way of the flexi-tip.
I bought the PowerSharing Cable by Samsung to overcome this problem. It is not easy trying to find a male-to-male Micro-USB cable. Coming across this Samsung cable was heaven-sent. The direction of the charging is one way and it is indicated on the charging tip. The Power Sharing Cable is meant for a Samsung phone to charge another Samsung device like another Samsung phone or Samsung GearFit watch.
Here are the unboxing photos.

The direction from the Powerskin battery is outwards. |
The other end of the Powersharing cable is plugged into the receiving device. When the Powerskin is turned on, the device was charged. So I do not need to use the flexi-tip, which is quite a pity as the flexi-tip is the unique selling point. But Powerskin should take into account cases which handphone owners would use to protect their phones. Powerskin should make some allowance into the flexi-tip.
