- Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2014Edit to add: The little LED light on the end is also the power button. You have to press it to begin charging your phone or other device.
While most all of these portable "lipstick" chargers have very mixed reviews here, I finally decided on this one, in pink, to carry in my purse and recharge my phone if needed. I've only used it a few times, and so far it's working well. I fully charged it using the included 2-ft. USB cord and an AC wall charger (which is not included), then topped off my iPhone 5s, fully charged a Droid 3 phone which was at zero battery two days later, and then added a little bit of charge to my Kindle Fire a day after that. It fully charged the Droid phone in under three hours. (I forgot to check to see the actual time.) Therefore, I think it should easily charge most any cell phone on the go. I haven't had it long enough to know how long this will hold its charge longer than several days. I couldn't find a lightning adapter, so I ordered the Amazon Basics 4" lightning cord for use with my iPhone 5s. Of course, you could use the cord that came with your iPhone, but I wanted an additional, shorter one to keep in my purse.
I guess it was silly to not order the identical one that comes with an extra lightning cord (which was the same price as this one), but it is sold by a brand new seller, and this one (that only comes with the regular cord) is sold directly by amazon. With such mixed reviews, I went with the one sold directly by amazon. And, I wanted a very short lightning cord to carry in my purse, not the 3 ft. lightning cord that the other one includes. (SEE EDIT BELOW--it wasn't silly after all.)
At first, I thought the device didn't work, but I had failed to press the on/off button, which is just the tiny LED light on the end and doesn't look like a button. Duh! As I do for all new electronics, I fully charged it using a wall charger before I used it the first time.
The little drawstring bag that is included is handy for keeping the charger and both of my cords together in my purse. The pink color is not a baby pink or a bubble gum pink; it's an elegant soft shade of metallic pink. So far, I like this charger so well that I've ordered another one in blue for a Christmas gift. I've also ordered a similar, less expensive Powerbot for a child's gift. This is one gadget that's actually very useful and easy to carry. It's a little larger than a lipstick, but still small enough for a pocket or small purse.
Update: After fully recharging this external battery (using an AC wall charger) and then letting it sit for almost a week, today I fully charged my Kindle Paperwhite, which had given me the warning that its battery was almost dead, and then partially charged my Kindle Fire, which is really a tablet computer. I'm impressed that the Anker held enough charge after almost a week to fully charge the Kindle Paperwhite and partially (maybe 30%) charge the Fire tablet. No complaints so far!
Another edit on Nov. 7 regarding other sellers: (Device is still working great!) This edit is a warning to be careful about ordering the one with the lightning cord that was sold by "manesell." I liked my device (sold and shipped by amazon, pink color, without a lightning cord) so well that I ordered another one in blue that included a lightning cord, for a gift, that was sold by manesell. It was supposed to be delivered no later than Nov. 2, but it still has not arrived. I checked on manesell's rating today and see that it's now horrible. Don't order the one sold by manesell! Order the one sold by amazon. (When I ordered from manesell, they were a new seller and had not been rated yet. Apparently I had been wise to not order from a brand new seller originally, the first time when I ordered the pink one. Live and learn.)
- Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2013No kidding. When my female friends saw it for the first time, they immediately responded with "is that a v_brator???"
LOL.
Product is put together well, feels very solid, and keeps the phone charged, at least 1 to 1.5 times (though that really depends on the capacity of the battery in your phone). It's very easy to carry, light enough (could be lighter, but that will probably sacrifice capacity). Charging is done via a micro-usb port, which is great b/c I carry devices that already use micro USB. No special wires to carry, no proprietary wires to carry (you hear that apple??). Charging the phone may take longer than when charging from AC; it's best if you just plug it in and then shove it back into your pocket/purse and just forget about it. The compact size really helps in that regard.
A short, coiled, charging cable is included. One side is full-sized USB male, and the other side has a detachable end where you can swap out the tip with plugs for micro-usb, mini-usb, apple (pre-ip5), and a couple of other weird-looking plugs. This same cable to charge your device can also be used to charge Anker itself, though in my use, I've found it easier to just carry a 3ft micro-usb cable rather than to carry the coiled one that comes with Anker. Iphone users - It does NOT include a plug for the iphone lightning cable so if you have an iphone 5 or later, you'll need to carry a separate lighting cable, meaning, you'll need to carry a micro-USB cable for charging this device AND a lightning cable for charging your iphone. Poop but you can blame Apple for creating a proprietary connector instead of using the industry-standard micro-USB (I have an Android device so not an issue for me :)
The full-sized USB port for charging devices and the micro-USB port for charging Anker itself are very closely placed, so you can't do both... it might sound pointless, but if they were placed farther apart, you wouldn't necessarily have to pull one out for the other.
As with Anker products, it's fantastically packaged and Anker really cares about customer satisfaction. You will receive a polite email asking you to leave a review. And as you can see from countless other reviews, they usually respond immediately to any negative customer experiences and really try to resolve the issues right away. I like their approach a lot - sure, they might lose a few bucks with some customers but that contributes to their overall success. B/c of their excellent customer service record, I also purchased Anker-branded spare batteries for my phone even though the Anker cost a few bucks more (why get this charger then? LOL).
I bought the 2600mah version but I see that the product now says 3000mah. Not sure whether it's just updated specs on paper or the actual capacity has changed. Also this product looks a lot like many other "lipstick" chargers out there, especially those on Facebook ads - the 2 for $18 deals. I'm not sure if they are comparable in quality and longevity but I can say if something goes wrong with Anker, they will take care of it.
The only thing that I find really annoying is that once you plug the charger to the phone, you need press the little button to begin charge. It's not that big a deal, however, when I'm out and about, I typically have the charger in my pocket. When I use the phone, I will disconnect the cable sometimes and when I reconnect it, then I need to take the charger out of my pocket and press that little button again and I have to do this every time I disconnect. It would be better if the unit can begin charging as soon as you plug the cable to a phone.
Side note: I paid $20 for my 2600mah charger.
[Update]: The 3000mah version says "Apple Adapters- 30 pin and Lightning, NOT Included" so I guess no Apple connectors are included, even the old, pre-iphone 5 adapters.
[Update 12/2013]: I've purchased 4 more of this charger to give as Christmas gifts. It's not too expensive and makes a really good gift. As long as Anker continues to stand by their products with excellent customer service, I will continue to be their customer.
[Update 8/2014]: My charger is still working fine. Lately though, I've been feeling that this Anker was getting long in the tooth for not having a built-in flash light (LED) feature that you see in many other competing lipstick chargers these days. So I was about to knock off a star from the Anker model BUT found that these flashlight versions are almost an inch taller. So your pick - shorter and more compact version with no flashlight (Anker) or taller ones with flashlight.

5.0 out of 5 stars Anker Astro Mini
I had recently purchased a new Blackberry Z10 after years of having an older Blackberry. I loved the features, big screen and apps. However, with the big bright screen, tonnes of apps, Bluetooth, Wifi etc... I found my phone battery almost depleted by mid afternoon. Then I came across the Anker Astro Mini and it was the solution to my problems.
The Astro Mini is a portable power source which can be used to charge a wide variety of different devices. The best thing about it, is the size. It truly is the size of my wife's lipstick. So that makes it extremely portable. The device feels solid, not flimsy like other external power sources. It has an all metal design and feels like it could take a beating. To charge the device is simple - just plug it into any micro USB travel adapter (which is not included, but for $25 who cares). It takes 4-5 hours to fully charge and keeps its charge. It contains 2600 mAh which is enough for one full charge (while the phone is still on) of my smart phone. It comes with a cable that has a variety of adapters which can plug into either an iPhone (sorry no iphone 5 adapter with this model), Blackberry or Android phone. While it is charging the device (which is the same time as a travel charger - for me 5 hours from a completely depleted battery), you can still use your phone. It is very simple to use. After getting this product, I bought a few more for family and friends.
Overall this is a great product. Well made, reliable, and best of all... reasonably priced. I must say, someone at Anker was thinking when they came up with this product. Highly recommend this product to all individuals with smartphones and are heavy users!
Excellent, excellent, excellent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reliable, convenient, Useful, and Compact
When buying a portable charger I look at price, usefulness, functionality, and compaction. The charger is small and great to fit in your pocket and it also comes with a mesh case. There are instructions on how to use it and how much charge it has. The manual is detailed yet simple. It can charge both Apple products and Android products and anything with similar charging end that attach to the adaptor. It has a decent battery life and can charge my phone from 5% to 100%. 10/10 great buy if you want something small but useful.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfet on-the-go charger
The product is really well made and arrived right on time.
This has been a real need for me as my iPhone 5S has steadily arrived to a 1 day charge cycles.
I like this product because it functions as advertised, and seems to hold a 1.5 5S charge. However, the product, in my opinion could be improved in a manner that I wouldn't need its own cable to charge it. If it could use the lighting adapter port instead of a mini USB port this will help greatly; I will then only need to carry iPhone's charger and cable and be done with that. If this could be arranged, this will be the perfect product.
Also, I like the pouch that comes with the product. However, it is not big enough to hold the iPhone charger and cable, so my bag continues to get messy a little to hold all this stuff.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product Excellent Price
I absolutely love this product. Several days ago when I was in the mall, my phone battery was about to dead, I wish I have this with me. Then I searched one sells at Roger called Power Bank which is priced at 50 dollar. Then I found out this Anker one sell for only 25 dollar.
It comes with several adapters for Iphone 4& Iphone 5, blackberry and charging port. After several uses, I did realize the charging current have to be above 0.8~1A, otherwise the battery pack will not fully charged. The blackberry charger is only 0.5A which cannot fully charge this battery. It did not come with a iphone 5 cable, use your own cable from apple.
After a month of experience, I really like this product and suggest several times to my friend. The black metal finish is also fantastic. It is definitely a conversation piece. I give a 5 out of 5 on this product.
Plus, this product is also not bad for winter. I leave this in my glove box all time. It has been minus 10 lately and never show any negative effect on the charging capacity. I hope the battery can last over two year.

3.0 out of 5 stars 80% efficiency
Meassured power output is 9.57 Wh (equals to 2600 mAh), 20% less then advertised. Obviosuly it cannot charge any phone fully, but it's portable and lightweight.
