As good as an idea this sounds, wouldn't there be issues with devices that need something the micro USB can't supply/supply enough of?
What I mean is, what if you have a device that needs more electricity to run at any given time than the micro-usb can supply? It would take longer to charge batteries and running while connected to a power supply would end up in a net loss of charge.
[quote]The design of charger being favoured uses a Micro USB connector - a format used on many handsets and other devices already.[/quote]This pleases me.
Nearly all our tablets and phones in Australia are using Micro USB connectors, but for some reason the Android pins are ever so slightly to the Apple one (not sure if Microsoft are using different pins in their connectors). I hope they end up using the same pins one day.

I'm not too sure about this, but don't smartphones use fairly similar if not the same batteries? I can't imagine their hardware being all that different.

This is why some phones (Note 3, Galaxy S5) use the micro USB 3.0 connector

It lets you use the advantages of USB 3.0, but it still accepts a Micro USB 2.0 cable
