Hello, The problem with many of these small chargers, including the Anker, is that there is no guarantee that they will work with IOS 7. I know that the Incase 5400 is IOS 7 compatible and is pretty small. Hopefully, I'll be getting a look at it at the Apple store tomorrow. If you like, I'll let you know my impressions. Unfortunately, I do know that it's pricier than the Anker.
