Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.
ThemeTrip was excited to be chosen to review the new portable power bank charger by Wusic Tech. With as much travelling as we do and being on the go with multiple smart phones, we were excited to try out this cute little gadget.
I know I should never air my dirty laundry in public, but for this review I will. The truth is that we are a divided household, split straight down the middle between "I would never own anything but an iPhone", and "Are you crazy? Nothing beats an Android!". So, you can understand why I was thrilled this little gem could handle both phones. We needed one charger that we could take on our trips that would work for all of us. I decided on the green charger as opposed to the clean white one since I seem to forget things that are plugged in when I'm checking out of a hotel. Anything that blends in with the hotel room is left behind. So, how did my color choice work out? I love the green! It's an in-your-face lime green that refuses to be forgotten. That works for me.
Probably the most important thing you want to know, how does it work? It's pretty simple, even for someone like me who sometimes will stare at a new microwave for a while. You plug it in, charge it up, then plug your phone into it. Waa laa. Perfect for those times you overuse your available battery life, which, for me, is all of the time. Mine came in the mail fully charged, so I immediately put it to the test. I attached both phones to it. The cord that came with it worked for the Android and I used my normal charger cord for the iPhone. This is the charge time that I got...
Android: Started at a 72% charge, thirty minutes later is was at 93%, and fully charged in an hour.
IPhone: Started at 27%, thirty minutes later it was at 48%, one hour and fifteen minutes later it was at 100%.
Both were done simultaneously! The power bar on the unit started at the full four lights, at the end of the charge, it was at three light charge. Still had plenty of juice for another item. I put my iPad on it that started at 21% and an hour later it was charged to 67%. The battery was drained at that time, but I had my needed charges. Time to charge the portable power bank back up for the next time.
The details:
Dual USB to charge two devices simultaneously
7800 mAh battery capacity. External Samsung SDI Battery Core
Built in LED flash light
Good for for Iphone 4 5/C/S, Ipad Air/mini, Galaxy S3/S4/S5, Note 3, Nexus 4, HTC One,
Droid, Moto X, Ps Vita, Gopro, Most Smartphones, Tablets and Mobil USB Devices Smart MCU touch system
Pros: Cute, convenient, easy to use, keeps a charge, fits in my purse without a lot of bulk. It's slender and fits in my hand. Price is very reasonable. Love that it charges two items at once so we don't have to take turns passing something back and forth when we both lose charge at the same time.
Cons: I know I'm supposed to come up with this so let me think a minute... Well, I would say that it doesn't come with cord to for the Iphone 5, but since that pretty much goes for anything that is not made by Apple, I can't really ding it for that. There is no way a company can keep up with how they change each charge cord with every product.
