Great for on the go recharging. I charged two iPhones (separately) four times and it went from 100% to 93%. They were not completely dead but let’s say from 20% to full charge. Might have given 5 stars but the description is not right. It is a 12,000mah battery pack not the 20,000 as stated in the description and there is only one QC 3.0 port not two. Not even sure what the benefit is for having a Qualcomm port other than it is .6 A more than the standard 2.4A. Makes me wonder if “quick charging” negatively affects battery longevity, it’s like charging your iPhone on and iPad charger. The product is a little different than the photo as well. Overall it worked great, took it to Disneyland for a few days and kept phones charged very well. Keep in mind the bigger the portable charger the bigger and heavier it will be. This is about the size of two iPhones stacked together but when you have kids and several phones to keep topped off this works great.

I’m very happy with my purchase, I went to Spain and I used it to recharge my tablet and my wife’s cell phone while watching a movie and didn’t use more than 50% of its capacity, and it was a long flight stopping for 2 1/2 hours in London, very happy with it

I bought the Tzumi charger for use with my android. Phone less than a year old and battery power not enough to stay charged more that an hour. This charger allows me to use my phone 8+ hours for work. It tells me how much of the charge is left. I can use for approximately 21 hours before I must recharge. Comes with a very short cable, but you must purchase a plug for the outlet. It is heavy compared to other chargers. I purchased more for gifts.

I've purchased several of this type of item for my daughter, who never seems to be able to keep her phone charged. What attracted me to the PocketJuice was the digital readout. The batteries I've bought in the past had a series of lights that indicated the battery life, and I found them inaccurate. I've used this for a few weeks now and am impressed with how quickly it will recharge my Samsung Galaxy S9. It's almost as fast as the quick charger that came with the phone. And, it takes a very small "bite" out of the capacity of the PocketJuice. However, when I used it to recharge my iPad Pro, I found it to be much less effective. On a series of one, the PocketJuice drained very quickly, and the iPad charged minimally. I'll be repeating this test in the future.

Great Power Bank

This is a great power bank. It charges up my iPhone really quick. I love the digital display that shows the anoutyof power you have left. The only reason it is not a 5 star review is because of the short usb charging cable it comes with. I believe it is a usb 3.0 cable and only works with those to charge the power bank. I tried a longer cable I had laying around the house because it was easier than having such a short cord attached to a wall plug after an hour the charge stayed the same. I thought it was the power bank itself until I used the short cable included and it started charging back up pretty quickly. I can see the short cable being an issue after using it for a long time but other than that it is a great power bank for your charging needs.

I really am enjoying this pocket juice thus far. I have only had it for a month or so and it works like a charm. I am able to let the kids (2 of them) use the phones while it is charging and my battery wont be completely dead. One child uses my phone and the other my wife's phone. They use the phones while letting it charge (by using the pocket juice to keep the device charged). I love it because we can take it in the car, grocery store, restaurants, parks or where ever we go. Would buy it again. It can also charge tablets or anything that has a usb. It can charge 2 devices at once.

This charger is easy to carry and affords a fairly quick charge for mobile devices. This easily fits in a pocket. It affords several charges without needing to be recharged.

I bought this for my trip to China. I needed a backup power source for my phone and gopro. When I depleted my batteries I would recharge them quickly throughout the trip. A must have if you're planning on taking multiple videos / pictures and don't have a reliable source for recharge. The digital display is great for telling you how much you have in the tank.

Best Power Bank I've Ever Owned

This item was recommended by a Best Buy associate for use with my new iPhone. The LED lets you know how much charge is still available on the unit. And also when the unit is ready when recharging it. It starts charging as soon as you plug your device in. No need to wonder whether it's on or not. Definitely better than any of the other power banks I've used in the past which only have flashing dots. And have to be turned on and off.

I just got back from CES 2019 and relied on this portable charger to keep me going the whole day. The charger went the whole week without the need for me to recharge it. I used it primarily to charge my Android phone. The Qualcomm Quick charge worked as advertised and quickly charged as I was walking the show floor.

Great power bank to keep on your side. It's small enough to fit in your backpack either to take to class or on a hike. Probably not ideal to keep in your pocket but doable if you don't have other options. Other than it being on sale, the Qualcomm Quick charge capability is my main draw to this baby. The clear digital charge indicator is really useful, too. Get you one!

I bought this as a gift for my niece. I decided to use it beforehand and compare it to my more experience unit. It charges FAST and work just as well as my unit. I purchased this one for the numerical battery level since my niece is visually impaired. She loved it. The numbers are easily read and the unit is small enough to carry in a purse.

Without doing a power analysis, my subjective experience with using it is that is lasts a very long time under heavy load (2 amps ). The connections are solid. The display on the digital readout of percent battery left is very useful. (it displays digits 01 to 100)

Purchased this item because it would really fit perfectly in my pocket, but -unfortunately- one of the ports delaminated from the board. Fortunately- without purchasing the Best Buy warranty- the manufacturer immediately replaced the item without return of the original. The new unit has worked flawlessly ever since.

We were going to be spending a lot of time on a plane to our destination. In addition, our excursions would keep us away from outlets for hours on end. We threw this charger in the backpack and it worked like a charm. Great purchase at a great price!

When you need more power

Overall this is a good portable charger, but it has a few weak spots. The bad, it appears as though it will only charge with the short cable that it came with, I tried with a different cable with no results. This limits the convenience a bit. It doesn't allow pass-through charging either unfortunately.
The good, it holds a ton of backup power which makes it good for multiple charges. It also charges quickly which is a big plus, and with USB-A ports it can charge pretty much anything.
Overall, I would recommend this to someone looking for a quick, backup charger.
