No surge protection at all, which is good for a few niche uses like cruise ships but probably not ideal for normal home use

It's fine for lots of things. Now this generic chinese cheapo brand may not be good in general, but I doubt most people go out of their way to use surge protectors when charging their phones.

The 5v/3.1a shared on the usb ports kills it for me.. (the no surge protection probably would have killed it too) The 4 usb ports are almost useless to me. I guess I could use one for some older or low power device that only uses the 5v but phones, tablets, laptops my soldering iron, etc all want more than the 15ish watts this does. So then i am back to plugging in wall warts and the outlet layout of this makes me wonder if I can use more than 3 of the 6 outlets at a time. The lack of ground pins on 3 of the outlets probably isn't a big deal since most of my chargers don't have ground. but they are probably too big to have the strip lay flat if I am using the 2 prong outlets.
Its worth it to spend a little more and get a more useful product and surge protection.

Note that this Strip has a USB-C port with 5V, 3A which will charge your phone a bit faster than standard 5V 2.4A USB-A port available on many other similar strips. I have already noticed this while charging my old phone.

And again I don't understand the trend. Proper phone charger starts at $10, laptop charger is closer to $20-30. You don't expect those to come at $10 with longer cord and a few outlets. And lifespan of modern charger is limited by obsolescence mostly anyway.
I would rather see a simple extension cord without USB - it should be a touch cheaper. Looks like either some workaround, or half assed attempt to be cool ..
