AnkeriPhone 17 Portable Charger, Nano Power Bank with Built-in USB C Connector, 5,000mAh Portable Charger 22.5W, for iPhone 17/16/15 Series, Samsung S22/23 Series, iPad Pro/Air, AirPods, and MoreECOLOGO

The Anker Nano is a small, fast and convenient portable charger. About half the size of a normal power bank with an ease of use flip USB that uses lightning speed.I found it easy to use, a good value for what you get and it functions exactly as advertised.My only complaint is that even with TurboCharging that this power bank takes awhile to recharge -- about triple or even quadruple the time it'd take to drain it. But even with this in mind, you can't beat the ease of use + convenience.

This only charges my phone once, BUT it is very small and easy to carry, comes with its own connector, and is easy to fit in my purse or pocket. I am very happy that I found it!

Small size makes it very handy to bring with me on any outing whether it is a simple errand or overseas travel. It takes about 2.5 hours to fully charge it from 1 bar on the charger. When fully charged, it can charge fully charge my iPhone 16 pro from 70% to 100% in 40 minutes. This drains the charger by 1 bar. For its price and size, it feels hefty and well constructed and does the job. I charge it with my docking station at my desk when I’m working on something. It’s simple to have it fully charged before heading out and does not really require special cables or anything.

A good portable charger solution, the quality I've come to expect from Anker charging products over the past few years which is solid. USB C connection will fit snug right into your phone, but if you have a really thick case on your phone this may cause some tension. Downside is the battery does work, and seems to be able to quick charged, but if your phone is running near E don't expect to get more than 1 full charge + out of this charger, meaning maybe a solid 1 and half charges before you have to recharge itself, but the bonus is the portability which allows you to charge your phone or tablet easily while still streaming or not having it plugged in a nearby outlet.Build quality:Seems solid, USB C port is a foldout to charge, but seems well made, may weaken over time or extended use. Also has a USB in/out port on the side for charger the device or plugging it into your phone or tablet that way (which kinda defeats the portable factor, but is a good backup method if the foldout port stops working).Weight:Doesn't weigh that much, but will add some weight to your phone if you are carrying it handheld, if you have your device mounted on let's a tablet or phone stand should be not be issue at all.Portable capacity:Charging capacity is the only reason for a deduction in a star, it is good but not great, good to use in a pinch, or if you are streaming a movie or show and don't have a nearby outlet for some reason, or maybe possibly to do extended recording if you don't use your phone USB port for something else like storage/mic/etc.

I see a bunch of one-star reviews, mostly from people who seem confused about battery capacity, energy, power, voltage, current, etc.People complain that this little pocket-size battery won’t fully charge their iPad. That’s like buying a little one-gallon gasoline can for emergencies, and then complaining that it when you poured it into your truck’s empty gasoline tank it didn’t fill the tank all the way to the top.The cell inside the Anker Nano Power Bank is advertised as having a capacity of 5000 mAh. That means the cell can (for example) supply 5 A for one hour, or 2.5 A for two hours, or 1 A for five hours. Battery engineers like talking about mAh because it is useful for their circuit designs, but for the rest of us it’s not very useful, because knowing the energy in 5000 mAh depends on knowing what voltage we are talking about. For end users, it is more useful to compare batteries based on the energy they store rather than the amount of current they use to deliver that energy. So that means talking about watt-hours (Wh) instead of mAh.For this battery the cell voltage is about 3.6 V, so 5000 mAh gives you 18 Wh.But phones aren’t designed to take power at 3.6 V. Phones require 5 V (or higher). Voltage conversion circuitry is not perfectly efficient. The text on the battery itself claims, “2600 mAh @ 5V x 2.4 A,” which means it can deliver 2.6 x 5 = 13 Wh of energy. This means that the voltage conversion circuitry inside the Anker Nano is about 72% efficient, so the 18 Wh at 3.6 V becomes 13 Wh at 5V (28% of the energy is wasted as heat). In practice, measuring a couple of Anker Nano Power Banks using a USB energy meter, I found they actually deliver 12 Wh (2.4 A @ 5V for one hour). 12 Wh is close to the 13 Wh that Anker claims, but not quite.My iPhone 15 Pro Max has a battery capacity of 17.32 Wh. Charging a battery is also not perfectly efficient — charging makes your phone get warm, and that heat is more wasted energy. If we assume that battery charging is also 72% efficient, then the 12 Wh from the Anker Nano becomes 8.64 Wh in the phone battery, or about half of the my iPhone 15 Pro Max battery capacity. In my experience the Anker Nano does indeed charge my phone from empty to around 50%.Because the Anker Nano supports USB C voltage negotiation, phones that support higher voltages can request up to 10V, allowing the Anker Nano supply up to 22 W for faster charging than a normal USB 5 V supply.The Anker Nano Power Bank is great for unplanned situations where you unexpectedly find your phone battery is drained. The Anker Nano is a small battery that easily fits in a pocket or a bag, and you don’t need to remember to carry a cable with it, because the built-in USB C plug connects directly to the device being charged. If you prefer to use a cable, it also has a USB C socket for that.Last year at the end of a day of skiing I found myself trapped for two hours in a broken-down gondola with four other people. All of their phone batteries were drained, and they were concerned about how they could tell their friends where they were. I pulled the little Anker Nano out of my pocket and passed it around. Within a few minutes everyone had charged their phone 10-15%, enough to call their friends and let them know what was happening.

Fantastic Anker product that is aptly capable.Holds good battery power and is capable of charging my 15 PM pretty well. I like it a lot!Only reason for return is that the connector did not work with a smallrig case for my phone so it was not useful to me. Definitely a steal for the price, though and super compact!It also has an additional in/out port so you can charge a type c device directly with the onboard port and another device with a type c to whatever cable.

This charger is the prince who never became king-full of potential but missed the throne. It would have been perfect if it gave more than a one-time partial/full charge but it has to be recharged after each use essentially making it a spare battery. Better off buying one that offers multiple charges IMO
