So in the past I have had the chance to use the lipstick chargers that Anker has made. These days they are not the optimal choice seeing as they only output 1 amp of power. This new PowerCore 5000 has proven to be the new portable charger of choice for me. It charges at 2 amp which is what most standard wall chargers do. I have taken a few photos to show a few different things about this charger. It is compact and the outer casing is solid. It is not metal but it is a mat black tough exterior. The button on the side makes it easy to use compared to the older lipstick chargers. The great thing though is that I didn't even have to push it to make it start charging. Just plug in the phone and it started right up. Super easy to use and works as advertised. What more could you ask for?
1st photo, the entire package. Everything that comes with the charger and the box it comes in. All very compact and nice.
2nd photo is a photo of how much charge the charger had when it arrived. 2 out of three lights. I usually charge all new devices that I get right away just to start fresh. So I popped this onto a charger and it only took a couple hours. So I assume it was about %60 full.
Now Photos 3 and 4 are the most important photos for me. I own a Galaxy Note5 and at the time I had %70 battery left on my phone. I plugged my phone into a standard 2 amp output wall charger to see what the time until fully charged said. As you can see in the photo it read 43 min until charged. So the ultimate test was to see if when plugged into the PowerCore 5000 the same reading showed. The final picture shows the phone plugged into the battery pack and the exact same reading. So this definitely charges just as good as a standard wall charger.
I would suggest this product to anyone looking for a full phones worth of charge on the go and to do it at a decent speed. I love having quick charge on my phone but as of right now Anker does not make a quick charge 2.0 battery pack this small. I only use Anker products for charging my devices. I have a few lipstick chargers, now this charger, two PowerCore+ 10050 with quick charge 2.0, a couple of the wireless chargers, and a couple PowerPort chargers. They have never disappointed me and they are always trying to stay up to date with their equipment. This is a solid product and I will purchase another so I have a couple. Until they come out with a quick charge version that is. Then I will give these away to have those. But all in all a great charger for on the go. Easily fits in your pocket with your phone.
