Review (5/5): Pricey, But Worth It To Have a GOOD Charger
I own a Galaxy S6 Edge Plus... AND an iPhone 6 (Work Phone), AND a Galaxy Tab4 10.1, AND a New Trent Battery 12,000 mAh Pack. With that said, each one of these devices is using it's own charger and because of that, I had to resort using a power strip by my bedside JUST to charge all my devices.
The current chargers I use are all stock (1 Apple Charger, 3 Samsung Chargers). One of the Samsung Chargers is directly from the S6 Edge Plus (supports Adaptive Fast Charging/Quick Charge 2.0), yet it fails to work 80% of the time on my S6 Edge Plus for whatever reason...
Another issue is when I go away for overnight trips somewhere. For a day, I could probably just get by with just the iPhone charger & Samsung charger, but when I have 3-4 night stays due to work, I have to pack all of them!!! It's just a big hassle. That's when I decided I'm just going to resort to buying a GOOD multi-port charger. I've used Ankur devices in the past and I've been very pleased with all of them. After reading various reviews, I decided the 3-port is perfect for my situation.
For $25, you get a 3-port charger: 2 PowerIQ ports and 1 Quick Charge 2.0 port (which the Edge+ takes advantage of).
I've used the Ankur PowerIQ tech before via an Ankur Car Charger and I can definitely say it's almost as good as the Quick Charge 2.0 technology. What I like about it is that it supposedly "detects" what kind of device is connected to it and charges accordingly. Whether this is true or snake oil, I can say that it charges my devices fast and never has any kind of power dip when you have multiple devices connected to it. I use these two ports for my iPhone, Galaxy Tab4 and New Trent Battery pack.
The single Quick Charge is dedicated to my Galaxy S6 phone and right out of the box (same cables and all), it would fast charge my phone 100% of the time. Unlike my old stock Quick Charge Charger, it never seemed to work. So when I'm charging my phone and seeing it will fully charge within an hour makes me happy!
The only initial turnoff is the $25 sticker price. Yes you get a multi-port charger, but I think maybe that sticker price will scare some people. But after experiencing and using this product, I think that $25 is DEFINITELY WORTH IT. Never have a poor quality/flaky charger again. I'm 100% pleased with this item!
