This charger is heavier than it looks, so maybe for some people it might not be as convenient. I have no issue with it. It’s not in my pocket. That was my ‘negative’ for this product. Now to the good stuff. Oh it didn’t come with a charger but it comes with a charging cable rated at 140W to match the power bank max output and input charging. I don’t own any of those Apple products but I did charge someone’s Iphone with it with their cord, so I know it can charge Iphones if anyone is wondering. I really bought it thinking it would charge my son’s laptop but it can’t the port on his laptop doesn’t allow charging, just data transfer. It’s a gaming laptop, so even the Wattage was sufficient, there was no way to charge it with this device. It does charge a laptop I have here that has the port that allows it, as quickly as the laptop charger (that only outputs 45W) and yes the digital screen on the power bank shows it is outputting 45W to it. It will fluctuate between 42 to 46W but I think this is normal. When the laptop (or any other device connected to it) is fully charged, it will stop. I should check to see if it will start to charge again if I start using the device connected to it. It probably will though, this device kinda smart to check these things. It also allows you to charge devices while being charged. Maybe that is the new standard but not much power banks did that before, so the fact that this one does it pretty cool. Back to the screen. It displays some nice information. It will give you an estimate how long the connected device will take to reach 100% in real time. It also does this when you are charging the bank itself. It tells you how long it will take for it to be fully charged. Yes it can do it simultaneously. So it can tell you how it will take to reach 100% and tell you how long devices connected will take to reach 100%. While being charged, you can only charge two devices (USB A and USB C) because one of the ports (the main USB C) is both input and output. When it not being charged, it can charge 3 devices at the same time. Remember thought that device output 140W max so it will adjust accordingly. I am able to charge my laptop (the 45W one), my Samsung phone and some Bluetooth ear plugs (or another phone) all at once and it won’t even run down the power bank. I don’t use it daily, so I haven’t needed it to charge it too often but it doesn’t take long to charge. I honestly much check how long but I haven’t needed more than an hour so far. I haven’t run it down too low either, lowest being 15%. Off course it will take longer to charge if you are charging devices at the same time, although I haven’t done so as it yet. Another thing I need to check.
Now the questions people make ask…. tldr
Is it worth this price? I paid 90 something for it, so yes worth it for me. Right now it cost $109.99, so still worth it for me. Now for the List Price of $149.99, I wasn’t buying it at that price.
Does it do what it states in the description section? Yes it does and then some. Everything is states it does is accurate.
Will I buy it again? This will last for quite a while for me so hopefully I won’t have to replace it soon. I am hoping by the time I will need to replace this that Anker will have upgraded this to something more powerful or more wattage ( they do have that presently) for a similar price or according to cost of living if you know what I mean.
Do I recommend this? TOTALLY worth it at the prices I mentioned. I didn’t say it in the review but because the smart charging with it, your devices are safe from overcharging and so on. Yes I trust my devices with this power bank more than the chargers that come with them.
Hope this review was helpful.

Sturdy, like a brick. It’s definitely heavy and chonky, be sure to read the dimensions and weight to make sure it will work for your application.

Great addition for traveling. Falls within air travel battery restrictions.

Can keep me going halfway across the country watching movies, then with an Anker charger, I can charge it up fast during a layover between flights, and it will keep my M1 Macbook Air fully charged up while watching movies and doing office work on the plane, and letting me land with a completely full Macbook battery, while still having plenty of juice for other devices as well.

This, plus an Anker 747, a USB C cable capable of charging at the max speed of the 747 (and thus also this battery) plus a USB C lighting cable, I pretty much am set for all my devices.

I don’t even bother with Magsafe or Apple made chargers anymore. Between the 747, this battery, and a couple cables, I am set for all of my charging needs, both with AC power available and on the go, for every device I own.

Pretty easy to do math on your device battery with the Anker battery pack (I tend to subtract 10% usable battery for any efficiency losses) and it’s just a powerhouse is a relatively small and lightweight (*relative* to the energy it can store) powerhouse.

Anker doing what it does best. Energy delivery and energy storage for portable devices.

Love it.

The screen is actually pretty useful. Shows real time energy throughput (both in and out) for each port, and the second screen in the menu shows lifetime data, which is unnecessary, but really happy they included it because it’s just fun. I love that they would include that lifetime data menu for pure enjoyment purposes. It does serve some functional purposes for sure, but it’s really not necessary, and the fact they included it despite that is just great. They knew there would be a good amount of people who would have fun looking at the lifetime statistics.

For anyone wondering, it does support passthrough charging. It can’t do this with flawless efficiency, although that’s somewhat expected. 68w input at 50% SOC, but when trickle charging a Macbook (just keeping it topped up to 100% while the Macbook is in use), the Macbook is pulling 3.0w and the input wattage drops to 40~w.

That’s fine though. Passthrough is always nice, and offers a lot of utility. If you only had access to a single high power USB-C port, this would still make it viable to use for travel as you could just set it to charge when you go to sleep, and still charge your other devices while charging up the battery.

Thankfully with the 747, I have access to basically as much power as I need when AC power is available.

Honestly, an Anker 747, this battery, and a set of cables to accommodate everything (USB-C to USB-C capable of high throughput charging, USB-C or A to lightning, and USB-C to Apple Watch, or whatever combination you need) is enough to manage all of your charging and energy storage needs on the go and navigating through life.
