Good product

So far so good. I've used it a couple of times and I've been able to charge my iPhone 6S at least 3 times with one charge. I really like the light that tell you how much power is still left. It's also pretty small so it doesn't take up a lot of space.

Reliable Charging Workhorse

I bought the PowerCore initially for an international trip and used it multiple times a day for 7 days in a row. What set them apart from the rest was not only the price but the excellent customer service I've experienced previously with Anker. First off, the form factor is much smaller than I originally imagined. This can fit into your pocket! I suggest buying a travel backpack with a USB OUT external adapter. I was able to put my PowerCore into a small pouch on the inside of my backpack and still charge my phone from the outside. A few backpacks have this functionality and it's completely worth it. Whenever my phone got to 50% or so (Samsung Galaxy S8), I would top it off. I was able to do this at least twice a day without even getting the PowerCore to 50% itself. I would just recharge the PowerCore at the hotel or at the airport before I boarded my flights. I used Google Maps almost constantly while walking around the city for directions, so if I didn't have the PowerCore, my phone would be dead halfway through the day. Other uses: On flights while watching videos on my phone so my phone would be at 100% by the time I got off the plane; At night when there weren't close enough power outlets to my bed in my hotels. It really made my travelling much easier. I was able to explore the country and not worry about finding a place to charge, so walking 7.5 miles in a single day did not involve a single stop into a Starbucks to charge my phone. I won't be using it for a while but I look forward to using it on my next trip.

One of the Best Chargers I've Seen!

Once fully charged up this charger holds its charge for a long time in storage. I've put it away in storage for several weeks up to a couple months and still had a full charge (according to its charge level indicator). I usually run my phone battery down to about 30%-40% before charging it. With the charger fully charged, I've fully recharge my phone up to 5 times and still had charge remaining on the charger. It also charges up my phone very fast! It came with a mesh pouch and is small, compact enough to carry in my pocket. It is a little bit heavier than some of the other compact chargers. But it is to be expected as this charger's capacity and capability are one of the best I've come across. The charger excludes the cord to charge your phone. So you'll need to have or provide the cord to charge your particular phone.

Boooo. A waste. *Updated Review*

Update 5/11/18: Anker representative Sharon reached out right after I posted my original review. I was not aware Anker had an 18 month warranty and had already put my old powerbank in the garbage where it belonged because I was so angry (especially since every time i borrowed a friend's powerbank before i finally chucked mine, it was always an Anker brand), but Sharon sent out a brand new one for me and I received it a few days later. I have it now and it is charging, hopefully for a good long life of using when I am low on power. Anker's customer service was wonderful, Sharon was incredibly kind and I am very thankful that I had a bad experience turn into a great one. Thank you!!!! Original Review: I have had this product for 6 months and dont even use it regularly. I charge it when I notice the battery has drained over time but havent plugged my phone into it more than a handful of times (less than 10x) as i am pretty diligent about leaving my house fully charged/ saving battery through the day. I noticed the last 2 times I tried using it that the powerbank was dead and doesnt charge back up. When it does, it stays at the last light no matter how long i have it plugged into the wall. What a waste of money and having to carry it around in my purse every day "in case of emergency" and in the case of emergency, it doesnt even help. What is the point of this brick.

Free Yourself From the Wall Outlet

If you're looking for peace of mind every time you leave the house, this power bank doesn't disappoint. It's the size of a credit card and only a hair heavier than my iPhone 6 making it extremely portable without being bulky and heavy. There's a power button you press which shows how much power is left via 4 blue leds (when it's dead, only one led will flash). You can only charge one device with this power bank but I'm always impressed by how quickly this charges my iPhone 6 (from 10% to near full takes approximately 1 hour). So far, I've been able to charge my phone about 4 times from near empty to full before having to charge the power bank. It comes with a usb cable to charge the power bank itself as well as a drawstring pouch. Since I hate carrying around the long original lightning cable from Apple, I bought the 1 foot "Double Braided Nylon Anker PowerLine+ Lightning Cable" which is the perfect size. What I love the most about this power bank is how effective it's been. The power bank itself requires at least 2 hours to charge from empty to full but once charged, your phone will charge to full in less time. As a result, I haven't charged my phone using a wall outlet since I bought this power bank more than a week ago. Not having to worry about my phone going dead or being near a wall outlet is the best feeling next to purchasing a new phone. So if you want a reliable power bank that charges your phone in no time and frees you from being attached to a wall outlet, GET THIS!

Great battery

EDIT: Anker's customer service has replaced my product as it was still under the 18-month warranty. It completely charges my iPad now and I can still use the leftover charge for my cellphone. I love Anker products and standby their quality, so although I recieved a defective battery once, I will not use it to generalize the company. Their customer service is also extremely patient and helpful. This portable battery was good while it lasted. I have no review about the wire that it came with since I used my own one that is longer. The travel pouch was also a nice touch. I liked that it had some weight to it so it does not feel too flimsy or delicate so I can throw it into my bag without worrying about it breaking. However, I am a bit upset that less than a year after using it, it no longer holds a full charge for my iPad mini.

Worth every penny

I've had this power cell for almost 1 year. I left it on my car for a few months in variant weather and never charged it or used it. This morning I plugged it in for maybe 45 min and it was 1/2 charged. My phone went down to 3% and I got terribly lost in an unfamiliar place and needed to use Google maps and I knew that would kill my phone. I plugged in my phone to the charger and walked for 20+ minutes using my phone ,and got to where I'm going. Then left my phone to charge more and it charged all the way to 80% before running out of juice. I am very impressed that even sitting without use and in a hot car, this thing still worked great. I feel like it was definitely worth the money and am so glad I bought it.

Impressed

I ordered two of these, one for my wife and one for me, after about a week of reading reviews on Amazon for lots of different makers and sizes. My wife has an iPhone 6S and I have the 6S+. We fully charged our Powercores overnight after they arrivied Monday evening. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings, we both used them to recharge our phones from about 15% to fully charged. My Powercore has just started flashing on one light left at 90% on the phone. That's almost three full charges on a 6S+. I use my phone for reading, FB and games in the evening, my wife tends to text and play solitaire. Her Powercore is still showing 3/4 full. We both have our Powercores charging the phone while using. Pretty impressive. To the people who gave 1or 2 stars because the Powercore comes with a charging cable that doesn't fit your phone --- use the one which came with your phone, you know, the one with a USB at one end and the other end goes in your phone? You should find the USB end fits the Powercore. We just bought two 3 foot lighting cables to keep in the bag that stores the Powercore and it's charging cable. No problem.

Small but Powerful!!

This is my first Anker power bank and I absolutely love it! I got this as a compact charger I could take with me back and forth to work and to my upcoming music festival I am attending. It is very compact compared to my other power banks. Fits perfectly in my purse and backpack I am taking to the festival. This power bank takes roughly 4 hours to charge completely and charges my samsung s7 approx 2.5 time just as advertised. Another huge plus with this product that I have found is that it really DOESN'T get warm or hot while it itself is charging OR when it is charging your device. Overall I am very pleased with this product, I would defiantly recommend buying this!!

Compact battery that can charge my iPhone 6S Plus twice!

This thing is heavy compared to your usual lipstick-sized external charger. That’s probably my biggest complaint, but I can get two full charges on my iPhone 6S Plus, so I can't really complain too much. The other thing to note is that it takes more than overnight to fully charge when completely dead. When I was traveling (with heavy phone use), instead of waiting for the battery to fully deplete, I would charge it every night just to ensure that I would have a full battery the next day. On a last note, I was not disappointed with the fact that you have to press the side button to start charging your phone, because I read a review that instructed me to do so prior to purchasing the battery. If I had not known that and simply plugged in my phone without pressing the button, I would have been really upset when I realized my phone hadn’t been charging. Overall, would I recommend this product? Yes.
