Yes, this inexpensive charger will recharge an iPhone (or any 4th generation or newer iPod.) I used this on my iPhone 3GS and it worked perfectly. The package only includes one USB cable, which you use to charge-up the iRecharge battery. You need to provide your own docking cable (included with the iPhone or iPod) to charge/power the iPhone (iPod).

In my very non-scientific test, I discovered the iRecharge will charge the iPhone battery at the rate of about 5% per 10 minutes. (I drained my iPhone to 30% and it reached a 100% charge in about 2 hours, 20 minutes.)

It is light weight but a bit awkward to use (it was designed to seat an iPod Shuffle while charging, so attaching the USB-dock cable requires somewhat nimble fingers; even more-so when detaching the cable.) If you have an extra docking cable, I suppose you could leave one attached at all times as long as you are careful not to short it.

Overall, an excellent portable, emergency power source for your iPhone or iPod.
