    Great way to not be limited to the indoors when you want to work outdoors with your laptop. With right adapter for your specific laptop/tablet works great in charging while at the park, lake, etc. Can charge laptop and cell at the same time. Love it, wish I had purchased it before Austin's snowpocalypse earlier this year - definitely ready for the next one now ;)

    I bought this because my MacBook Pro 2017 battery was always dying and I was at wits end. I was starting PA school and Apple told me that I would have to send my computer away in order to get the battery changed. I did not have that kind of time or money to spend. So I went to Best Buy and asked for help. They recommended this battery. I have now used this battery for my MacBook Pro my iPad Pro and I carry it with me everywhere that I go to charge my phone my watch and anything else. It is a complete lifesaver. I have had mini charging stations in the past, and this is by far superior. As a Yelp elite, I do not give five stars lightly, but this is well deserved.

    Outstanding product. Use it all the time as my son with autism uses a tablet all day. Keeps the battery highly charged. Charges devices very fast. Only downside is takes it a while (overnight ) to fully recharge the powerbank. I love the product.

    I thought twice before buying it because I wanted to save money but took a chance and wow. Once you fully charged it it will last you a month and it’s super fast to get your phone back to full.

    It's a mobile power "brick". This thing is a bit big, however it charges all my devices and at super speed too. Couldn't be more happy with my purchase. And the black Friday deals was great too!

    This power bank is amazing. It can recharge my MacBook Pro and still have enough juice to recharge my iPhone or iPad. Highly recommend it and Anker is a solid brand for chargers and power banks.

    I purchased this because of it's high capacity that's flight friendly and charges fast. This could go 2 days easily and keep 2-3 phones alive. It is pricy but that's the price you pay for high capacity with a high power delivery.

    Amazing quality, very solid laptop charger. Battery level lights can feel a bit inconsistent, but it can definitely charge a laptop once or your flagship phone 4 times. Might want to look at an insignia brand instead to save money for the same quality though, if you don't mind not having the Anker brand.

    I got this on sale during the holidays to replace an older 20,000mAh Anker charger that I bought in 2016. This charger is so much better and I would give it 5 stars if it wasn't so expensive and if a USB-C PD charger (60 watt or faster) was included. This charger, the PowerCore III Elite 25600, shows that it can be charged in a little over 2 hours. I used an Anker 100W 4-Port type C charging station (Atom PD4) to recharge from empty and charged it with just 1 cable attached (100W rated usb c cable); it took 2 hours to charge, with every 30 minutes going up ~25%. Getting a full recharge and able to fast charge two devices via the USB C cable make this charger worth it. I've tested it on my other devices like iPad mini 5, iPhone 11 Pro and 12 Pro. I even plugged it in to my son's new MacBook 13" Air m1 and this portable charger shows as a 87W power source. In short, if you travel this charger is worth the price. If you value quick recharge times, then get this power charger. If you're looking for a better value with less features, then there may be better options. Price and no charger included are the only real negative things I can say about this.

    this is the best standby pack i tried so far. It charges the iphone 12 in no time about an hour. A little heavy though and a little pricey though, what you expect for 87 watt battery. I can charge your laptop just like using a wall outlet in a portable battery. Great for traveling and tired of buying small capacity and longer charge time.

    This thing is solid! I ordered it without seeing it in person and its bigger than i expected but not unmanageable by any means. This powers my Nikon Z 5 camera perfectly and charges my wife's phone (Samsung) and mine (Apple) VERY quickly! Very good peace of mind for power outages and hiking!

    This charger works very well with my iPad Air 4th Gen and my iPhone 12. I have not tried with my MacBook Air 2020 yet. So far I am very pleased with it as it does what it says it can do. It's the third Anker product I've purchased, each one for different purposes, and it's a brand I will continue to purchase.

    I do quite a bit of international travel and bought this to keep my electronics (laptop, ipad, cell phones) charged while in transit. It’s larger and heavier than I expected, but it is the reliable power source I need. Anker is a quality and reliable product. I wouldn’t use another brand to charge my electronics.
