For the size this does pretty well and can fully charge my cell phone 1 time. It's dense, sturdy and feels well made. It comes with both USB-A and USB-C ports as well as a dedicated attached USB-C cable which is pretty unusual in a battery this small. The LCD is clear and bright with a full 3 segment LCD. Not just 4 dots as lots of budget chargers have. Since it's a smaller size at 5000mAHr size vs the popular 10,000mAHr units, smaller batteries trying to do full charge rates tend to have more internal loss during high powered charging. That cuts into the total capacity somewhat depending on the charge rate but that's just physics. For example, at a slow 200mA charge rate you'd get pretty more capacity but at a 1.5Amp discharge rate I measured 3700mAHr total from the 5000mAH rated cell. Maybe they can get 5,000 under certain conditions but there are internal losses so there really should be 2 specs; the battery rating and the mAHr output rating as well. This one does decent for it's size and doesn't get too hot while charging or discharging. The form factor is pretty handy to top off your phone later in the evening such as after dinner or at a show. For the size and only 13 bucks at the time this is a better value than most since it has a built-in USB-C cord, full size USB-A and USB-C sockets too. It also can do fast 9V and 12V charging has the best power button around which is nice and large, not a little button somewhere. It also understands and can negotiate a 12V charge rate while being recharged rather than being limited to older 5V USB specs. It can also charge at 9V at 2.22A or 12V at 1.5A = 18 watts going in. It won't do 30, 45, 65 or 100W rates going IN or OUT but it's still pretty fast for such a small battery pack. They did all they can in unit that small. Read more

I just took this portable charger on a road trip. I find it very easy to use, connecting it with my Android phone on many occasions. The issue is that most Samsung phones (with a typical 4000mAh battery) can only be charged once by the 5000mAh battery. The same goes for most Samsung Tablets or newer iPads. But that is enough for most day’s use. Compared to my older 10000mAh battery, its much lighter and it also contains its own USB-C cable. Some of the photos are slightly off. The battery cable / plug is very short, but its not just a stand up plug that folds down into the battery. Unlike some small batteries which connect directly to the usb-c port, this one still has a bit of cable that connects itself to the battery (causing the battery to dangle a bit, if you are walking around). I have charged it with its built in USB-C cable and with other USB-C cables and it charges quickly when connected to a fast charger. The USB-C cable is rated at 20W for fast charging (and discharging), and the battery will quickly charge up in a few hours. The LED screen is a nice touch. Overall, it’s a small and capable battery and is very useful and fits perfectly in my backpack. Its much handier than it has any right to be. Read more

The size is definitely a major plus. It’s small enough to easily fit in my pocket or a small bag without adding much bulk. The built-in Lightning cable is also a great feature. It’s short, which is good for portability, but it can be a little inconvenient if you’re trying to use your phone while it’s charging. The 5000mAh capacity is decent for a charger this size. I can usually get about one full charge on my iPhone 13 mini, which is enough to get me through most of the day. It won't fully charge larger phones with bigger batteries, but it provides a significant boost. The PD 20W fast charging works as advertised. It charges my iPhone noticeably faster than a standard 5W charger. It’s not the absolute fastest charging available, but it’s definitely a time-saver. Now for the downsides: The biggest issue I have is with the durability of the built-in cable. It feels a bit flimsy, and I’m concerned about it breaking or fraying over time. I’ve been careful with it, but it just doesn’t feel very robust. Also, while it’s advertised as being compatible with other devices via the USB-C port, I’ve primarily used it for iPhone charging, so I can’t speak to its performance with Android or other devices. Another minor annoyance is that the charger itself takes a little longer to charge than I’d like. It’s not excessively slow, but it’s not as fast as some other power banks I’ve used. Read more

This on the go portable iPhone USBC Charger is good to use anywhere including in the house. The Charger itself is so cute and compact which is great because it doesn't take up a lot of space. Charger is easy to use not hard to figure out how to work it. Love that this charger displays the percentage of battery available to use. Also it displays battery when charging as well. The portable charger came with a mini cord for charging the device can be plugged in any USB Port. Also on the opposite side of the portable charger is a USBC slot for the device to be charger with a USBC Cable as well. So this Charger is super versatile in the ways it can be charged and used. I love using this charger for in the house sometimes I just want to be lazy and can charge my phone in bed with me. Or even more important while at work I can whip this portable charger out and charge my phone. Super convenient and definitely a must have while on the go. Read more
