To be fair, pages like the one you link only talk about the official standards, which mean very, very little in most of the world.

I wouldn't assume anything about voltage in much of South America / Africa / Asia. You're going to get a frankenstein NEMA-Schuko-Chinese power outlet that will give you some amount of power for some amount of hours in the day, for a definition of 'some' that no one will be able to specify for you with any great precision and that will vary from town to town.

They are very practical, as they accept any plug

They are also more dangerous, as they don't have a good grip on the plug, and usually don't have shutters.
