Tablets and phone chargers will work OK with standard 2-prong (ungrounded) European plug adapters, as long as the adapters are compact.
Anything grounded, such as many laptop chargers, needs a Switzerland-specific adapter: 3 prongs in a flat triangle shape.
Although many hotels have a standard European plug in the room.
