Anker Dual USB Wall Charger, PowerPort II 24W, Ultra-Compact Travel Charger with PowerIQ Technology and Foldable Plug, for iPhone XS/Max/XR/X/8/7/6/Plus, iPad Pro/Air 2/mini 4, Galaxy S9/S8/+ and More

The charger looks and feels well made. From single digit percent battery power it charges my S7 edge in about an hour and a half to an hour and 45 minutes while simultaneously charging one of my kids' iPads. That is the same time it takes the Samsung quick charger that came with my phone to charge just my phone, so I am pleased. I don't use any apple products but my kids are still wowed by how quickly their iPads charge. I believe it takes them about 3 to 3 and half hours even with 2 of them charging at the same time. I am happy with the chargers. Now we will see if they withstand the test of time...9/16/2020 This charger no longer works on any of my kids' iPads. It still works great on my Samsung phone and my Bose bluetooth speaker, but within a month or two it stopped charging one of the kids' iPads. Then another, and finally another. That's 3 months worth total on the 3 iPads I got these for.I came to buy this particular charger after having similar experiences with cheaper chargers and the iPads. Prior to buying these I did a search for the best iPad charger, and this Anker charger was named in more than one article, so this is what i chose. I got 2 of these chargers and the result is the same on both. Neither charger has been dropped, damaged, or abused.I have chargers for my phone. I only got this charger for the iPads. After 3 months it is not doing what I had hoped it would do. I guess my only option at this point is to get genuine apple chargers. I didn't buy the iPads. They came from the kids' mom.Aside from the $30 wasted on these chargers, it also gripes me that I have to put money in the pockets of the people at apple.I personally do not recommend these chargers for anyone with an apple device. If others had a better experience and you feel it's worth taking the chance, be my guest and good luck. I would advise just going with an apple charger from the start. If you are using this with any other manufacturer's device you may be ok. Other than the iPad issue it seems like a good charger.

I expected from the description of this product that it would "Fast Charge" my Samsung galaxy S8, but it just says "charging". I also tried it on a Samsung galaxy S7 and had the same result. I'm going to time the charging along side the fast charger that came with the phone and see just how fast it is, and check it out a bit before sending it back. I'll update with results. All in all it seems like a solid charger.Side note: I do feel like if there is going to be a light on the charger it should change colors to indicate when it has fully charged a device, but at least it isn't too bright of a blue that would be distracting if plugged in by the bed.UPDATE!!! 11/26/2018After using this charger for over 6 months I am changing my rating to 5 stars! The charger IS a fast charger even though it doesn't display fast charging on my Samsung Galaxy devices. It is still working great and I am very satisfied with this product as well as all my other Anker products. To top it all off the manufacturer contacted me over the weekend and is sending me an upgraded version of this charger that they say has two fast charging ports and one of them will display fast charging on my Samsung Galaxy phones. I do like my Anker products and the 2 times I have had any issues with their products they have gone out of there way to make it right!

Charges an iPad or iPhone about as quickly as can be done safely. There are many inexpensive choices, but I've had success with Ankar in the past for batteries, so thought I'd give them a shot here. Buying genuine Apple is a premium price, but, aside from the charger that came with my MacBook Air, I've never had a bad OEM charger for any of our devices. With cheaper chargers I've had a few fail, and an occasionally inconsistent charging experience. Sometimes the charger works as expected, and on rare occasions there is a message on the Apple device questioning that same charger's compatibility. I write that off as cheap chargers using the cheapest components, which don't always deliver at consistent tolerances, especially as their components age. Then under possible stress, the charger isn't delivering within Apple's tolerances, and you get the notification questioning compatibility. They do OK in a pinch.This time I figured I'd pay closer to an Apple price, get something better and more functional. I like having 2 x high output ports and the light makes them easier to to attach the cable in the dark. The charger works great, and as usual with an iPad class charger, phones charge much more quickly. I've often had 2 iPads or an iPad and a phone, or a phone and a BlueTooth speaker charging at the same time, and it's done about as quickly and cleanly as I would expect.

Pros-Quick chargeDoesn’t get too hotDual 2.4V chargingLight isn’t too brightCons-None, so farI have purchased a lot of Anker products over the years. Anker has become my go-to for charging supplies.I always carried my iPad Air charger in my travel bag, but was unhappy with how slowly it charged. Using my iPad while charging would often lead to a net loss in charge. I had a third party dual charger, and it was fast, but only with one thing at a time. After a lot of procrastination, I decided to buy this charger. I’m glad I did, and I wish I had bought it sooner.As is typical with Anker, the package was easy to open. Instructions are included, but it is literally plug and play. I hooked up my iPad to it and charged it from 24% to 85% in less than 2 hours. I didn’t time it on my iPhone, but I do know that it was a fast change, too. It never got more than warm while charging. A lot of chargers, including Apple’s, get very hot when charging my iPad.A big plus is that the light on the front isn’t blindingly bright. This is one of my pet peeves with a lot of chargers.If you need a charger, don’t hesitate to buy one of these, like I did.
