Portable Charger 38800mAh,LCD Display Power Bank,5 USB Outputs Battery Pack Backup,USB-C in&out Dual Input Phone Charging Compatible with iPhone 16/15/14 Pro,Android Samsung Galaxy Pixel Nexus-Purple

First off, it's a big battery. It's heavy and bulky. Can you carry it around? Sure. It's a bit large but fits in a pocket or hoodie pocket just fine. Definitely wouldn't be comfortable lugging it around for a hike but fits in a backpack fine as well.People saying "not convenient for hiking" yeah? No duh, why would you bring this hiking. Firstly, you're hiking, you probably don't have internet to begin with, so your battery shouldn't be dying that fast anyway, and second, why would you NEED a capacity this high for hiking, bring a smaller more convenient battery pack. Keep it in your backpack. Don't complain about the size when it's quite obvious it's going to be large and bulky. Durr.For my opinion. It's a good battery, it hold a humongous charge that lasts days. I see this as being perfect for road trips where you don't have to worry about holding it, just sit it in a cup holder or something and let it charge.No duh it takes a long time to re-charge it's 38k mAh. BUT it's not even that long. I saw reviews of people saying it takes FOREVER but never gave an actual time of charging. I charged it from dead and it took maybe 3-4 hours. Which is REASONABLE for 38 THOUSAND mAh!!!! Obviously it's going to take long to charge.[EDIT]: the product is not advertised to fast charge, but you can get it to fast charge by using a higher capacity wire. The wire provided with the pack will not fast charge due to its limitations but you can buy a higher capacity charging wire for a few bucks here on Amazon. After using the new wire for a few days it fast charges just like the original plug that came with my phone. So I recommend buying a fast charging wire if you don't want to wait 8hrs to charge your phone.TL;DR It's big and bulky and not comfortable to lug around in a pocket, but it holds charge for days with multiple uses, it takes a bit to re-charge but it's a large capacity so be patient. It does the job and charges the phone in reasonable amount of time. It isn't advertised as a fast charging device, but for the price compared to other brands it's good at what it does. And what it does is charge your device.

This is a great battery. I recently took it to Asia for a 3-week business trip and was pleased with the performance. A few things that you should be aware of before you buy:1. This battery carries a lot of power, therefore it weighs more than most of your slim battery packs. It's not something that you would want to slip into your pocket for a day of walking. If you are looking for something suitable for this, find something a little lighter.2. This battery is also much thicker than the smaller battery packs that I have. Again, not great for slipping into your pocket. I kept mine in my backpack or a fanny pack (I know) and I didn't have issues at all with taking it with me.3. Because of the power in this unit, it takes time to charge. When the power started to wind down, I made sure to give it a charge overnight. This isn't a battery that you can charge in an hour or two. It takes a good amount of time to charge.Great things about this battery:- The battery life is incomparable. It lasts forever. I never felt like I was in danger of using up a full battery in a day - regardless of what I did with it.- The screen gives you an exact, numerical, representation of the current battery power remaining. This is so much better than the 4 or 5 light systems.- If you need it, the 4 full-sized USB ports are a great asset.

So far this power bank is working great. It takes a full day to charge for me but probably that is due to not using a fast charging block which should yield better performance. I like the digital readout of remaining capacity instead of approximate blinking dots. It is on the heavier side of banks i have bought in the past but it also has more capacity than those. The outside case is very smooth so it could more easily slip off of surfaces or slip out of your hand. I like it's ability to charge from USB micro or USB C. I was impressed overall with is so I bought 3 more.

I like this charger. Does the job. It definitely holds a charge for charging a phone maybe 3-4 times before the portable battery needs charging itself. I pretty much use it when I forget to charge my phone at night. The only downfall is charging the actual portable battery from 0-100% takes forever and a day to recharge. I’ve gone up to a couple days and the battery is still charging. Way too long for a battery pack to recharge. Otherwise it’s easy to carry around. Has a little bit of weight if you keep the battery pack in your pocket. Definitely noticeable having it in your pant pocket compared to a backpack and such. Definitely durable and will last for years.
