    It's a brick for sure, and that may deter you from buying it along with the price, but it charges my Surface Pro X and my Samsung Galaxy Tab S6!!! I was able to charge my Surface Pro X from 65% to 95% in 33 minutes, using the USB C cable that came with this product. And although the weight is off putting, you can keep this charger for a few years; you'll be able to charge any USB-C laptop with this bad boy!

    Quality product but twice as expensive

    The power bank is well built and has substantial heft to it. It has a lot of capacity, charges very quickly and comes with a high quality wall charger. That is unfortunately all that can be positively said about it. It does not have pass-through charging and annoyingly every time you reconnect your phone or device to it, you will first need to press the button on the power bank to initiate charging. It does not recognize that you plugged anything into it. That makes it impossible to stow the power bank away in your backpack and just have the USB cable hang out of it ready for giving your devices some power. Very inconvenient because of this and given it's size and most importantly it's weight, you realistically won't ever be carrying this in your pocket. Given that other brands offer power banks with the same capacity, slightly longer warranty and sometimes more features, this being double the price of those simply isn't justifiable. I actually wanted to like this product since there is nothing wrong with the build quality but given how expensive it was while missing some modern features it really was quite disappointing.

    Worth the Money!

    This portable charger is definitely worth the money. Lasts a long time and multiple devices can be charged and barely makes a dent in the battery. It is on the bigger side of portable chargers, so I wouldn’t necessarily declare this “portable“ in my opinion. I like convenience a lot so this isn’t the best charger I have had in those terms. However, it is worth the money for the quality and the capacity that it has to charge so many devices over days of use. I use it to charge my phone and Nintendo Switch. My fiancé also steals it from me all the time for his phone and we get a couple days of use from this portable charger with all our devices using it. Comes with a charging cord, block and mesh sleeve to protect the aluminum made charger. High Quality. Long Lasting. Worth the Money.

    Anker - PowerCore+ 26800 mAh Portable Charger with 45 watts PD is a must buy for people who travel. If you charge your phones the charge will last you for a week using your phone and may be half a week if you charge your PD laptop. The amazing thing is that you get a 60 watts Anker fast charger with this unit that charges this beast in just 3.5 hrs. This would be your most important device you would use frequently during travel and is just under the maximum load of a power bank you could legally carry on a plane. Anker is a quality name and you would not be disappointed with this purchase though it is slightly costlier than the competition but the reliability of the unit and the 18 month warranty cannot be beat.

    Charges my devices faster than expected. Perform as advertised. It is bulky and long so expect to carry the extra weight on the go. You can trickle charge small devices like ear buds, led lights, etc that draws less than an amp to stay on. It comes with a fish net pouch, usb-c to usb-c cable, and 65W wall charger. The 45W USB PD does deliver. It took me about 3 hours to fully charge the powerbank from 0%. It will auto shutoff when powerbank is fully charge. Do not need to press button to turn on when charging your devices, it will auto detect when device is plugged, very convenient to leave cable plugged in ready to use.

    Huge amount of power and has continued to provide power without a noticeable loss of capacity for months. This thing is ridiculously nice to have for any plane ride or car ride. Or if you carry a backpack you can throw this in there and charge on the go. Too big for your pockets, and too heavy for women to carry everywhere in their purse. But in the office, car, plane, camping. It has many p timely uses.

    Great Power, very well made and works great with USB-C connection. Only drawback is it is kind of big, and does have some weight. Be nice if for the price it came with a Hard case instead of just a Net bag, but you can cheap hard cases online made for it. A must have for heavy travelers.

    This is by far the best battery pack out there. Comes with a fast charger lots of capacity. Can charge everything I need it to (MacBook pro/Nintendo switch/iPhone) with ease. Is the largest battery size allowed on an airplane and you can leave your home knowing you will be just fine with having extra juice for your devices. Must have for any traveler.

    Fantastic. This thing has charged so many things already for my family. It charges newer macbooks. It charged my new HP laptop. Android and IPhones. On the mac it fully charged the battery from around 5% to 100% and had leftover juice. It is kind of long but i havent had any issue fitting it my messenger bag. An expensive but great battery

    I bought this when I was out of town and forgot my laptop charging cable. I was able to use the adapter for my laptop (using the usb-c connector). The battery is huge and will charge any phone for a long time. It is heavy, however, so it's not something you're going to put in your pocket.

    Coming from the perspective of someone with an Ultrabook that supports 65W Charging and has multiple USB C devices this portable charger is absolutely awesome! I was so shocked when I found out that this charger can actually charge my laptop and really give it an extended life, but I have even more positive to say about it. It also includes what is effectively a second laptop charger. I have two laptops that charge over USB C and it's a great value for someone who needs both an extra travel charger and a portable battery for being on the move. I don't have to worry about device compatibility either as it has both USB A and USB C charging ports on it. There are certainly longer lasting batteries out there, but they are far larger and not generally meant as a portable battery for just phones, tablets, and PCs

    This charger is heavy and big, However it will charge anything with a USB connection ie. Phone and or Laptop. The charging unit it self takes about 2.5 hr to max charge , I have been able to charge a iPhone and Mac Air Laptop at the same time . As I said it is heavy but it does the trick ....

    Great power bank

    I tried three power banks over about the last eight months looking for one that would work with USB C PD charging with a chromebook, the last one I tried works. The Anker - PowerCore+ 26800 mAh Model:B1376H11-1 Portable Charger worked with chromebooks that use USB C charging from four different manufacturers Samsung, ASUS, Lenovo and Google and it worked nicely with them all and probably others. I normally attach the power bank when the chromebook power drops to 20 to 30 percent and continue to use the chromebook while it recharges to 80 to 95 percent which takes 20 to 30 minutes. The power bank has enough capacity for 4 or 5 recharges in this fashion with capacity remainung. It is easy to get more than 20+ hours of mobile usage without resorting to the wall charger.

    I love this charge bank! I can charge my tablets, phone and any other devices before having to recharge it. It holds quite a bit of charge. Bonus that it recharges quickly! It is a bit hefty but that is expected given the amount of the power. If you are thinking about it just do it. Definitely worth the money.
