This is an impressive battery pack that allows you to charge multiple devices at once. The app integration works decent, but has some flaws I'll talk about later Included in the box are every DC plug type connector known to human kind, a long and short USB C cable, and connectors for a surface and apple MagSafe 2. Also included are a charging brick and some international adapters.
App integration: The app integration is where ARROE, tries, to shine. In my test over the last week, it hasn't worked as well as I had hoped. You can get a view of battery percentage of each device plugged in, and even some that aren't currently plugged in. Setup is fairly easy, and you initially set it up on your phone. You set specific profiles for what type of device is connected and can get emailed links to help download desktop software. The app allows you to turn on/off specific ports and set up notifications of charge percentage. In my experience, the push notifications don't work very well because they are late. The device itself has to be connected to the internet to be able to sync its battery percentage. If you, for example, are charging a laptop on the go, you won't get updates until you reconnect to the internet and then it tells you that the battery is charged. There is also as setting to help maintain the life of the battery of the device. For example, limit the charge to 80%, rather than charging to 100%. HOWEVER, all this setting does is give you a notification that the battery is at 80% and you need to unplug it. The battery pack is smart enough to just stop charging, yet it doesn't. So, if the device is in my backpack charging, I have to open it up and fumble around and unplug it. Something there could be improved.
Performance: I charged an HP X360 tablet, and a 15" MacBook Pro, along with an iPhone. Performance wise every percentage gained on my laptop, drained about 1.5% from the ARROE. I could not get a full charge out of my MacBook, even from a fully charged ARROE pack. The wireless pad on the battery pack is nice, but is sometimes finicky to get lined up to charge since there aren't any labels. Sometimes it took a time or two to get the phone lined up and start charging.
Overall: Notifications, as of now, seem more of a gimmick than actually useful. That being said, the multiple ports and ability to just plug in multiple devices and go is very nice. While I cannot charge my macboook to full, it greatly extends its life and I can charge my phone at the same time. The design of the battery is nice as it slips into my briefcase very easily and isn't too heavy.
I like this pack, but there is room for improvement.
