Indeed -- I have one similar to this but with only one USB port. It must be a low amp -- it can charge my phone decently only when GPS, phone, Bluetooth are off. If I have GPS and the phone on, it uses power faster than the charger can keep up.

I dunno what amperage my current charger has -- I don't have it on me right now, but for serious use you need more amps
