Saw a weird charging setup at the airport in Charlotte

I was stuck at the Charlotte airport last week and saw a guy using a small, foldable solar panel to charge his phone at the gate. It was about the size of a paperback book and he just had it propped on his bag in the sun from the window. He said it added about 15% to his battery in 30 minutes while we waited. In my experience, those little panels are usually too slow to be useful, but this looked like a solid backup plan. Has anyone else tried a portable solar charger that actually works okay?

Seems like a lot of work for 15%.

Saw a review saying the newer ones work way better in direct sun.
