Customers frequently mention the Pocket Fan's long battery life, portability, and powerful airflow as significant advantages. Many appreciate its compact size and affordable price. However, some users experienced compatibility issues with certain phones and noted that the fan can be somewhat noisy. A few also pointed out the lack of an on/off switch as a drawback.

    I used it one time, then it started smoking and stopped working. I liked the fan, but I didn't get the one for an iPhone so without the battery, it was all useless.

    Great idea for someone like me who suffers with hot flashes but design is not great. As soon as you plug on the blades move and hits your fingers

    This is an inexpensive option for a reason. Never worked well and quickly stopped working at all.

    Does not work with all android phones

    The Plug Life pocket fan works perfect with the included power bank battery. However it does not work with all android phones. I plugged it into my LG Lucky and it did not work. I plugged it into my Fire HDX 8.9 and it works great. The standard USB connector allows it to work with any unit with a standard USB port. A word of caution, before connecting the fan to the battery or to any USB device, use a finger or thumb on the center portion of the blades to ensure they will not suddenly start spinning. Once connected, allow the blades to spin. Before disconnecting, once again stop the blades from spinning with a finger or thumb on the center.

    Kept seeing fans for IPhones only. Annoying. Thrilled to find one for my Android. Super bonus, the power bank. And great price too.

    DO NOT BUY FOR IPHONE

    Wish I'd read the reviews more carefully. The package says this works with iPhone/iPad but it 100% does NOT. It does not have a lightning connector. As per other reviews I am now charging the battery pack so I can use that to plug the fan in, but the red light is still indicating charging with no instructions, Look for other alternatives if you have an iPhone.

    This can be used to recharge your phone or as a fan which is very handy in hot weather. I was impressed how well it blows air for a cheap price.
