A portable charger that works well and minimizes cords, with a catch.
I have gone through 6+ portable chargers over the last few years trying to find the perfect charger. A folding wall plug built into the battery pack is a must for me. It reduces the cables you have to carry and keeps things much cleaner when charging it. This one is the slimmest and lightest pack I have had and the practical battery capacity matches the rating. I have charged my phone quite a few times before charging this pack and the rate of charge to devices is also good. The USB port and built in cables will all charge while the battery pack is charging. This is great for overnight charging of all your portable devices including the battery. The built-in connectors cover most modern devices; usb-micro, usb-c and lightning. They all work well. The lengths can be a little odd based on the device you are charging, especially when trying to carry them. My main issue with this charger, and I've experienced it with others, is that it won't charge low power items. Bluetooth accessories, livescribe pens, etc. The battery pack will power on when connected, but then it turns itself off. They need to have a way to enable "always on" power for devices like these or make the power off function more sensitive.

Love that it has its own wall plug, charges phone fast
I purchased two of these, one for me and one for my partner, to ensure we had battery while on an overseas trip. They took a while to charge the first time, but I've been able to charge my phone several times off that initial charge. Further, the speed at which it charged my Pixel is the same as I would get from my normal charger, which is great. I specifically wanted a charger with built in cables, and the fact that these had USB-C, micro-USB, and lightning bolt is perfect. I can charge my phone, headphones, kindle, and ipad all from one device.

Much more convenient - all cable-types included
So I wouldn't say that I have an addiction to these battery packs for cell phones/tablets. I do own several different models. Instead, I honestly think I keep buying new ones to try them out, experiment, and see which one I like the most.I have solar models, some very small, some extremely large (20,000mah and 25,000mah) and I do have one similar to this with a Micro-USB and an Apple Lightning connector built-in. I liked this the most simply because I didn't have to carry extra cables. (I have a personal cell USB-C and a work phone - iPhone).While my previous battery came with a USB-C option, it was an adapter that replaced the Lightning connector - I could use either-or, but not both. (Ugh.)This device, however, has all three types built-in, folding away neatly inside the edge of the battery pack. I now have USB-C for my Android phone, Lightning connector for my work iPhone, and an extra Micro-USB for those occasions for a Friend-In-Need :-). I've got the octopus-style multi-charge cables, and while they do work well, having all of the cables built-in is very nice to have.Which is why I like this one the most so far. It is 10,000Mah, which is plenty to recharge each of my phones a couple times throughout a weekend away - plenty of capacity. If you are heavy phone user, on it for work all day, or a Tablet that draws more power, this 10,000mah is still sufficient for at least 2 full recharges.As an experiment, I went on a weekend trip and tried to go the whole trip using only the external battery. While I was not on my phone a TON, I did use it for Uber/Lyft, Waze, Google maps, and taking lots of photos. I made it through the entire trip without a need to plug into the wall, including a quick recharge on the flight home. That says a lot for the efficiency of this device.With regard to some batteries offering Solar-charging, most of them take a few days of full sunlight to recharge, although some newer models have multiple panels that fold out - allowing faster recharge times, but still not as quick as a 2A quick charger. (simple math - a 2A charger is 2,000 milliamps per hour, so guestimate 5 hours to fully recharge a 10,000mah battery. For those Engineering types, I know there will be energy lost to resistance/heat and the voltage regulator circuit, but trying to keep this simple). Charge while you sleep, it will be ready by morning.Size and style - The brushed aluminum looks good, is durable, and does not weigh too much for carrying around for the day. There are 4 small blue LEDs indicating charge %, and seems to be accurate.This battery pack offers good capacity, the convenience of all your cables built-in, and lightweight and stylish. I think you'll like it.

As advertised.
Don't get as much charge out of it as expected for advertised size. Other than that exactly what I was looking for. Well made, no need to drag bundles of cords. Recharge anywhere and with three built in attachments perfect for any situation. Will charge almost anything so great to have for an emergency. Only thing that would make it better if they could keep all of the features and ad a flashlight.

Best power bank ever purchased!
Bought this for my husband who’s constantly losing his power banks or they become damaged and need to be replaced. This is the longest he’s had one & it isn’t damaged which says a lot. He loves the fact that he doesn’t need to carry any extra wires/cords & that it charges quickly. An dded bonus is that it plugs into an outlet which is very convenient.

Great, while it worked
I loved this charger in the beginning. It is so nice on the go and it charges your phone so fast. But now I have gone through two of these, and both had to be returned because the iphone port stopped working. I have also been super careful to make sure as I charged my phone that the cord didn't pull or hang. But still, around 3 months after use the iphone port just stopped working. I decided to purchase a second one and give it another chance because Amazon Customer Service was so helpful and made the return easy. Didn't workout. I really wanted to love this charger. Unfortunately, I don't like it enough to initiate a return every 3 months.Wouldn't recommend.

Working as advertised.
I ordered this product because it can plug into an outlet to recharge and it has multiple built in cables. So far an excellent product. They should add a flashlight and percentage display and it would be even better.
