Anker Power Bank
Anker Power Bank, PowerCore Essential 20000 Portable Charger with PowerIQ Technology.
Bought for a festival to charge an iPhone 12. Tried it out a couple of times before the festival. The charger lasted the whole festival from a Thursday to a Monday. Very happy with the charger.
The Best Portable Power Bank Available
I didn’t hesitate to buy an Anker PowerCore Essential 20,000 mAh power bank for recording presentations and band at a forthcoming music enthusiast meet. This all-day event is held in a hall where there is no ready access to plug in power so recording the sessions with an Apple iPhone 11 Pro in full HD at 60 fps would drain the battery before lunch.
This power bank will keep the iPhone topped up and give me five full charges should I require it. We have quite a number of portable devices in our household (two iPad Pro 2nd generation, two iPhone 11 Pro/Pro Max, iPhone 7, Kindle, Apple Watch, etc.) so this will come in handy on holiday while out and about too. Great device, highly recommended, indeed essential kit if you enjoy outdoor pursuits which require GPS mapping gadgets such as hiking, orienteering or for camping to keep your devices fully charged.

Brilliant for camping or Travelling
We’ve only started going camping the last few years and we didn’t realise these existed till last year when our friends devices were always fully charged and ours were only charging when we were in the car (the rest of the time we left them on airplane mode to preserve battery). Our friends recommended this product and we used it this year. Absolutely great, lasted whole week charging all our phones. Looks good, sturdy, comes with a travel case. You might just need to bring your phone leads. Would recommend

Expensive but super power bank ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Sometimes its better to pay a bit more & get a quality power bank.
Took that to a 4 days festival with no access to electricity.
That was perfect (even kept 2 phones charged for the 4 days)

Sleek, Good Charge
Yep, good product! I knew it would be as I had a smaller Anker before that still works great. Bought to take away to a festival for 5 days and I was juiced up to the max! So far it’s charged my iPhone 11 twice, my friend’s vape twice and her Samsung phone once or twice too.
Very good charge
Great charger!! Would recommend!
We took camping and it lasted for a couple days charging two phones and my Apple Watch.
Quite heavy to carry around day to day.
Value for money
Like: being able to charge 2 items simultaneously, multiple charges from the unit.
Dislike: fairly heavy, but I guess that has to be expected.
EXCELLENT RECHARGING CAPACITY
Bought this for a holiday where being out all day with a number of family phone devices that would need recharging would be necessary. Charged this before setting out (takes about 12 hrs) but it kept everything recharged as advertised. If I need another one I would definitely by this again.

Excellent device charging time
This product is well made very durable. The charge of the device can take up to 7-8 hours but once it’s fully charged devices can be used multiple times until juice runs out.
Took it out on a full day trip used it charging 2 devices a few time at a time and still had 1 bar left so very happy with the duration.

Lovely piece device.
Brilliant piece of device, works very well with my little mobile fan in which the battery does the job and make it last to use for. A bit heavy but that doesn’t bother me at all. I certainly recommend this lovely piece of this device.

Great, long lasting powerbank
At 20,000 mAh capacity this powerbank lasts really well. Its a great thing to carry with you when you need to keep your devices topped up, and its got a very reasonable size and weight for the capacity. I tested the power output and it easily outputs 2.5A while keeping the voltage at 5V, which is a huge improvement on other power banks I have tried. I keep mine with me on my commutes, so I can keep my phone and headphones charged, and it does an outstanding job.
Good portable charge
It’s a good product and it does what it’s meant to do, very reliable unlike other brands I’ve tried, not the cheapest and would expect a better finish on the product and would expect QC and PD charging at this price point but however I would buy this again.

Keeps the charge for a LONG time
This lasts a LONG time between chargesdepending how much you use it of course! Has been absolutely brilliant with my iPhone, not worried about phone dying when I am out now!
This power bank is very useful for long trips as it charges up twice or more. It’s a bit heavy which is annoying but really good for 20
Perfec
I honestly couldn’t think of a way to fault this if I tried.
It has two USB-A power outputs. A micro-USB and USB-C (thank god) to charge the powerbank, 4 increment LED’s to show the capacity, and a mesh bag to carry in (which lets me bring the single USB-C cable I need to charge this and charge anything from it).
It lasts a long time, and charges fast. Well done Anker.
Fast-Charges 2 Samsung S10e Phones Simultaneously
I was a bit worried that this item would not fast-charge my Samsung model, but I plugged 2 Samsung S10e phones (USB -> USB-C) and they both showed up with the same “time until full” as they showed when plugged into the wall charger. In the time it took to write this review, my phone went from 25% to 32%.
I am also using 2 Anker USB-C cables I bought at the same time. The pack is about 5mm longer than a Samsung S10e, and weighs twice as much.

Great travel battery back
I bought this as an extra battery pack for weekends away. I was worried it would be too big and heavy but I was surprised by the weight and size. It’s fatter and slightly heavier than my 10,000 mAh one but the sizing is similar. I have many Anker products and this one didn’t disappoint. Sometimes it doesn’t automatically start charging my phone so doesn’t charge if I don’t think to press the button but that’s a minor issue and mostly my fault for not checking it. Overall very happy with this product!

Fit for purpose, but quite large so may not fit in standard pockets
It charges devices well, and quite easy to fit into my pockets, though I have quite large pockets so might be a problem for regular sized pockets. I have two phones so using this on the go has been a life saver. Highly recommend. Just be aware this is not fast charging so it does take a while to get your device up to 100%.

Great powerbank
Got this to charge my phone and works ipad.
my phone charges well with the (Samsung S10e) and it does charge the ipad too but it does take time and the ipad does use a lot of the power bank up.
it does last a good amount of time. Great if you are spending a couple of days away at a festival or camping.
I keep mine in my work bag as I don’t always have a place to charge up my phone etc.
It’s not to heavy either, it’s about the same size as my phone and about double the thickness of my phone.
Worth its weight in gold
So far so good. Battery pack has lasted almost a week which I was very surprised about.
Quick charge feature is great as well.
Slightly heavy but doesn’t bother me to be honest. I still carry it around in my pocket.
Worth its weight in gold. I have an iPhone and the battery life isn’t great so this battery pack keeps my battery topped up.

Great powerbank
Easy to use, has both micro and c usb slots for charging. same size as my mobile so no problems. has enough charge for my phone, tablet and bose bluetooth headphones with two lights still avalable. great price as i think there is a newer version out.
Have a few anker products car 12v adapter, multi charging adapters and some cables. All are of excellent quality, I look for this brand above other suppliers which might be a bit cheaper.
Minor niggle is that only micro cable is provided.

Long lasting battery and good quality
The battery lasts a long time and charges my S10+ and iPhone 12 Pro Max very quickly.
It doesn’t heat up too much and is pretty thin and light weight, especially for being 2000MAH.
Only downside is it can take a whole day to charge to full but to be expected for a large power bank.
PS. It comes with a nice cove

A must have item.
Excellent piece of kit up to Ankers usual standard. Packs lots of power, though best to charge with a beefier mains unit as takes ages with apple iPhone charger. Nice to see usb-c input. But would be nicer still to have built in lightening or usb-c output.
Brilliant for Oculus Quest 2
Bought this to use as an external power source for the Oculus Quest 2.
The battery life is brilliant, takes a while to charge initially but that’s due to the high capacity of the power bank itself.
It’s light enough that it fits in your pocket securely!

It's an Anke
I have used many Anker products all of which have been good quality and this seems to be the same. I have only had it for a couple of weeks but it seems to do what its supposed to do. I don’t foresee any problems. Anker products are usually good. My only concern is that it is larger than my phone.

Lots of charge
Really good. Charges my iphone 6-7 times, and much faster than plugging it into the wall. The net-bag it comes with is great as well as I can put the charging cable for my phone in it. The only slight downside is that the battery itself takes about a day and a half to charge fully, but considering how much battery it holds, that makes sense.
Great Battery Packs.
These little battery packs from Anker are really good; I have two now and both hold a good charge which will recharge a phone multiple times before it needs recharging. They are ideal for travelling and once charged they have a decent battery life. *Recommended Purchase*

Great piece of ki
I’m one of those people who has to be constantly charging their phone and having had an Anker powerbank previously snapped this up on a lightning deal. We’ve just been on holiday and took this out every day- once charged it holds for a good while and devices don’t drain it. It’s a good solid size and weight but I don’t find that an issue- highly recommended

Perfect power bank but I hate the finish desig
Always been with Anker, never had a problem with any product and the reputation persists with this power bank.
My only dislike is charging time and the weird plastic crosshatch/file finish on the top. I hate touching it as it feels like a file and it makes noises that make my teeth cringe. I keep it in the included pouch but even with that it slides around inside.

Very pleased with the build quality and styling of this and it is very easy to use with all the connections you need and a simple 4-dot readout for how much charge is left.
But as others have mentioned, it is not quite the 20,000mAh capacity you might expect. It’s probably a single lithium cell with a 20,000 capacity, but because lithium cells are nominally around 3.6v, and a usb output is nominally 5v, the voltage is stepped up inside the power bank and the effective capacity is reduced. But it is still around 14,000mAh at 5V (see readout in my photo from running a USB lamp).
As a “70Wh” power bank, it’s a good product.

Best power bank range in marke
One of the best if not the best power bank in market, Anker is doing excellent job in everything they make, kudos to Anker and all of it’s product, since buying first portable speaker never looked back. I highly recommend this power bank for very long lasting performance! Better to charge with fast charger, as it holds lot of charge it take time to charge with slow charger, but with fast charger it will pretty fast. Can’t fault this product in any way!
I had been in the process of requesting a refund because the thing took about 30+ hours to charge up, despite my using various cables and chargers. However, after four or five charging attempts, it actually dramatically improved – to the point that I am now giving it five stars. I have no idea as to the physics involved, but I would have no hesitation in recommending this power bank. PS: Capabable of charging an iPhone 11 pro : 4 times. It automatically shuts down when the phone is fully charged, and the LED display system indicating remaining capacity is reliable and useful.
Portable power on the go!
I’ve already got an older version of this which I’d bought about 5 years ago (and it’s still going strong) and had recently bought this for a family member who has also found it to be a very useful portable power source if you’re out most of the day and have something that needs a quick recharge. You can charge a couple of items at once as it has more than one USB socket too. Recharging the battery pack will take a day or so, unless you’ve got a higher amp plug (Anker also sell these)

Great product just wish it came with a usb type-C cable!
Really happy with this product everything about it is great only things I would change would have it come with a USB type-C cable instead of micro-usb and have the two USB ports on the device slightly more spaced apart so that devices that have a bigger usb plug can be charged without covering/blocking the other USB port thought this is only a problem on the usb charger for one of my drones battery chargers as the usb plug is surrounded by a massive amount of plastic for some reason but that’s not the fault of the Battery Bank that’s the drones fault.
Overall great product would definitely recommend!

Good bank. 19.5cm long with cable!
Holds a heck of a lot of power, takes an equally long time to charge.
Choice of ports is great.
Protective mesh is really good and unexpected.
I use this with the UGreen brand case on amazon (pictured), fits perfectly and can fit whilst charging device ie my mobile broadband on the move.
A point to note:
The size with cable plugged in is 19.5cm.

Best power block!
wouldn’t use any other, this is the best power block, it holds its battery for so long, it lasts days I charge it up and can use it so many times before it runs out, definitely worth every penny and lasts for years too. wouldn’t use any other portable charger. its big but not too big that it cant fit into a small shoulder bag, or coat pocket which I love, and isn’t too heavy either so ideal for festivals or just days out.
Badger out of 10 - Reliable and handy
I’ve used Anker power banks for years now. I’ve always found them reliable and very handy to have. Yes, I have had a couple of duds, yes I have had to replace them, but hey, I can say the same about my socks. Anker have been in the game a long time now, they know what they’re doing and I wouldn’t get any other brand.

Anker quality once agai
Really sturdy well made power bank. A little heavier than my old one but that’s not a bad thing in a bank this size. It’s almost the exact size as my Huawei P30 just a little thicker. Takes a while to charge initially but most power banks are like that so to be expected. Perfect when out and about.

Would buy again without hesitation. Anker are the best!
I use this for work to keep my mobile and iPad charged up. It does the job! These high capacity battery packs are so much better than the ones of a few years ago because you can trust these to hold their power and to charge your device multiple times when. You need it.

Handy for all your gadgets
If you’re in need of a powerbank to keep all your gadgets charged then I’d highly recommend this one. Great battery life and can charge a Samsung note 20 upto 5 times before it dies.
Excellent piece of ki
I use it mostly for work as sometimes I don’t have access to a plug socket. Easily charges my phone quickly and efficiently, three or four times before the power starts to get low. Also great to keep in the car in case your battery fails whilst out and about. Would be very handy for travelling too, if these muppets in government ever decide to allow us out of the country again!

I use it mostly for work as sometimes I don’t have access to a plug socket. Easily charges my phone quickly and efficiently, three or four times before the power starts to get low. Also great to keep in the car in case your battery fails whilst out and about. Would be very handy for travelling too, if these muppets in government ever decide to allow us out of the country again!
Stay powered
Does the job at charging pretty much anything, good battery life and power output. Works for my Quest 2 as well, but unfortunately the Quest 2 is power hungry and still loses power even when plugged into this. Not sure if it’s the Quest just being inefficient on power our this being unable to give enough power output, it does slow the rate at which the Quest discharges though while in use.

I have had this powerbank for over a year. Not had a single issue with it. And if I have I know that Anker customer service will be there to help.
It holds charge well. It holds a lot of charge. It can charge a Samsung S10 quickly and many times. It’s a bit heavy but that is expected. It takes a while to charge but that is expected due to capacity. I wish it could charge whilst plugged in but unfortunately it cannot be charging and also charge a phone. USB C helps too
Pros
1) Good amount of charge and power in this thing
2) Good build quality and doesn’t feel as though it’ll break
3) USB C is convenient for charging it and easily copes charging 2 things at once
Cons
1) Quite heavy but expected
2) Can’t charge at the same time as charging another device

20000 mAh Anker power bank - nice produc
Nice size, 2 full size USB ports to charge devices and 2 input ports for recharging the bank (one USB c and the other is micro usb). Pretty sturdy although I’ve not dropped it. No rattly or hollow sounding areas and feels solid in general. Slow to recharge unless you have a high watt USB c charger. Paid 27-32 pounds and happy with the cost.
The only issue i have found is that the bank stops powering low draw items after a while for example Christmas led string lights have a really low power draw so even when you set the bank to the low output mode it still cuts off power after a while (would have been great if it didn’t do this as it would probably power such led lights for ages) still not a big deal overall though.

Edit: replaced free of charge Doesn’t charge fully
Edit: Anker customer service contacted me following below review and replaced my charger immediately. No problem with the new one at all.
Only had it a month and doesn’t charge fully – wouldn’t recommend
Bought to replace a much loved used but worn out earlier version. I love this charger! I can charge my phone at least 4 times before I need to recharge it – totally portable and ideal for travelling and all those times when you cant access a plug. I use this for most of my charging needs as you dont need to be tied to a plug whilst you wait for it to work. Slimline and easy to slip into a bag and simple to use – just plug and go. Lights on the on/off switch indicate the remaining charge.

Great Power Bank
Not much to say about this as its a power bank. Nothing fancy just charge it up and then I can charge my iPhone XR about 4-5 times on each charge. I have used it to charge cameras too which is great when out and about and you need a boost of charge.

Does what it says... backed by awesome customer service
Its a powerbank that does the job and its housed in a sturdy casing. There are a lot of less well known name brands on Amazon but I have a number of Anker devices and never had issue with them. They are nicely packaged with clear instructions.
This particular product was working fine since I bought it last year and then it developed a issue where some leads would not work with one of the USB outputs. Any lead that didn’t work on that problematic port worked fine on the other port and not every lead I tried was a problem. However I contacted Anker through their website and corresponded with Sophia who immediately dispatched a replacement unit. Friendly and no quibble customer service. I know I have left 5 stars for a product I had issue with but kudos to the customer service resolving the issue.
I have headphones, leads and powerbanks by Anker and its honestly one of the makes I go to on Amazon for some of the accessories I need. This experience only reinforced that mindset.

Nice power bank
Although I prefer the older design with the side button and linear charge indicator, this is a great power bank with lots of capacity. I do like the USB C charging as it means you can fully charge ready for the next day.
Peace of mind
Purchased this for my eldest daughter as she’s always running low on phone battery. She can take this to school in her bag and simply top up when necessary. Gives me peace of mind knowing if she need the phone she’ll always have charge… Just gotta hope she remembers to charge this too!!!
Purchased before a camping trip last summer. Nicely packaged and feels like a quality product. The weight and smooth finish to the plastic casing can make it awkward to pick up…..you have to have to have one to understand what I mean.
It does what it says on the tin….charges small (comparable) electronic devices. You can’t charge the PowerCore and charge something connected to the PowerCore at the same time. Low power mode for very small devices (like ear pods) useful feature. Can be quite slow to charge the PowerCore battery, but that’s because of its large capacity I guess.
The product I purchased in July 2020 lasted until January 2021 (6 months) then it would not charge anything or accept a charge itself, no LED illumination – it had given up.
Contacted customer service, logged a warranty claim and explained the problem. Within 2 days a new one was delivered that is working fine, we’ll see how long this one lasts. Sophia at Anker customer services was very helpful and responsive to emails. She followed up on things 2 weeks later to see if everything was ok.
Hopefully it was an unfortunate defective product in the first instance (which happens).

Great brand
Anker produce great quality accessories and this is no different. Charges an IPhone 12 Max up to three times per charge. It is slightly heavy but that’s what you’d expect with the giant capacity battery you get for your money. I’m going to use it for multi-day music festivals (whenever the pandemic is mostly over) so it would be great for that.
Works perfectly, I use it mostly at home and for long travel. It takes awhile to charge fully, maybe 6-8 hours for me (I just leave it overnight). But it lasts a week or two with everyday use. My phone battery is poor so I have to charge my phone several times a day and this powerbank is honestly a life-savior.
But important to know, it’s quite heavy because it stores so much charge. So if you are looking for a light and not that powerful one maybe it’s not for you. For me it’s perfect because I can walk around the house with my phone while it’s charging.

Brilliant power bank
What’s not to like!
It’s a nice solid unit, not too heavy, charges phone/tablet quite quickly. Very versatile.
Have now brought smaller ones for the children’s devices when we travel.
Great power bank I would highly recommend, esp for the price!
Best battery pack!
I have been wanting one of these for ages and finally decided to get this one. It is fairly heavy but feels good quality. Charges really quickly and multiple times. I leave it to charge over night and its ready for me. Another use for it is that I use it to power a light board and it’s powered it for 3 days now (10 hours use a day) with no top ups! Highly recommend.

Great product, slow to recharge the pack
This has proven a great product which I use regularly with a motorised camera dolly and action camera for long exposure shots that exceed the battery life of the camera and dolly. I like that it’s a nice durable case and has allowed for a bit of abuse from me.
My only criticism of this pack is it’s very slow to recharge to full (75% to full takes me over 4 hours using a high powered Anker IQ main charger)
