I now regularly charge my laptop, camera, tablet, game controllers, and friends’ devices using the same charging cube or battery and cable. That was impossible and hard to believe even just ten years ago. The only odd one out is the iPhone. I actually like the Lightning connector more - too bad it’s proprietary and has limited speed/power.

I never experience incompatibility with my setup, but I’m sure it does happen, especially with budget cables/devices. I’m not sure what cables you’ve tried but I’ve had good luck with Anker and Apple’s newer cables.
