    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.

    Great for phones, tablets and laptops, recharging of the unit is quick and I would highly recommend it….. only thing that might bother others is it’s size… it’s on h the e larger size a bit heavy but well worth it to have!

    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 have actually charged 5 phones from 0% dead to 100% fully charged on one battery charge. I have carried it in my camera bag to recharge my my big SLR camera by USB C. Very happy with my purchase, would definitely buy again.

    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.

    this thing is a beast. it has some heft to it but packs a lot of power. wouldn't recommend for air travel as it has too much capacity and will put you overweight on your personal item, especially on international flights

    This massive battery from Anker is just what is needed if you are going places with your laptop or other devices for a few days where there may not be electricity. It is fairly large and heavy, but is a necessary piece of kit for my computer bag and is reassuring to have on the road.

    I mainly bought this because I wanted a power bank that was also capable of fast charging and this definitely fast charges. I’m currently still using an iPhone XS Max and I can charge the phone 3 times with the power bank before I have to charge it up again and even then it charges fully I’m just over an hour.

    For The Price

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I get it home and start charging it, low and behold none of my plugs are powerful enough to charge this product. I went to YouTube to watch some videos on this and both “unboxing” videos show it coming with its own plug!!! After reading a Q&A on BestBuy an answer said it needs a minimum 60watt plug!!! That’s another $60!!! If going to need to carry my laptop plug around with me, whats the point of need a protable charger?! No where on the packaging does it reference the minimum size plug required to charge this. Anker, I suggest you send out updated products to your YouTube influencers without the required 60watt plug, and also suggest adding this very important detail to your packaging!!!

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    So Good I bought a second one for my wife. I don't know if this is true, but it feels like it charges my macbook pro faster than the wall charger. Use it all the time, I never have to worry about running out of battery when I am away from my house

    Excellent charger. Was able to recharge my MacBook Air and iPad easily from 5% to 100% on one charge. Not the lightest unit but worth the extra weight. Would definitely recommend!
