Worth the price tag

I take this thing everywhere with me when I know I will need more than just a boost on my phone, for shorter trips I take my smaller Anker charger. This is a must have for one or two night trips, especially if traveling by plane or train, even car. I can charge my phone a iPhone 15 Pro Max a few times with it as well as my apple watch ultra 2. If my wife and I take a one or two day trip somewhere this is the first thing that is packed, then I only need to bring one power adapter and a two cables. I generally will charge this during the day when we are out and about exploring where we are at so that by the time we get home at night it is ready to go. The design is nice and looks great. I use the provided carry bag that came with it everytime I travel with it in order to limit scuffs and scratches but also to put all my charging cables in one spot. Things to note: -Depending on the power adapter you are using to charge this it can take awhile. Luckily the screen shows exactly how much time is remaining until it is fully charge. -Weight, it is quite stout but for me the extra weight is well worth the extra charging capacity -The app is useful but not a necessity. I only use the app really when I want to check for an update to the device or to set one of the USB-C ports to be input only. So far I have had this charger for 8 months and use once a week at least, sometimes even in my own home so that I can sit somewhere that isn't near an outlet. I did not get the charging base for this as it didn't seem like a need for me. I think if I was on the go more and needing to charge things more often I would get it for my desk so that the battery is ready to go all the time. But until then I am fine just plugging it in as needed.

Many quirks and bad data, but does the job. Next version I'd imagine will be better
By Mike on Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2025
I do really like this power bank but it has some weird flaws. Like when charging it, I use the Anker power strip that shows me power draw and when this power bank is at 100%, it's still drawing lots of power for at least 5-10 minutes, which tells me it's not able to calculate it's charge capacity correctly. It also often shows a mismatch to the power strip- see included photos and videos. While charging at high speeds, the device gets a loud squealing sound which you'll hear in the video and it gets quite hot (that's expected though). I've seen this device power cycle numerous times when charging certain devices like my portable fan or also when it's being charged by that Anker power strip. It will show lightning bolts and reset. Despite the issues, I do still like the device. I love the ability to charge with two inputs, but that acts odd at times as well where it'll charge slower with two inputs vs. one. I like seeing the data which is why I bought it. The screen is great, but also another quirk, it is slow to turn on it you just want to see what the power level of it is. It's like booting a computer, shows Anker, then eventually shows the charge level. The Bluetooth feature is nice to have as well... I personally don't use that though. It's helpful if you want to check the status while it's in your bag, but otherwise a bit useless. Overall I give it like 3.25 stars. It does the job is supposed to do, but with lots of quirks. The form factor is chunky but not bad. The screen is nice too, but is a bit prone to scratches so I keep it in the sleeve most of the time. I just bought their new model with the cables built in, which is much more convenient overall, but also lacks some features that this one has like 140w input. Will see if these quirks continue with the new model! Love Anker though... So much innovation over the years.
