This seems to be the perfect fit in terms of size
I travel quite often and I had used other battery packs from Anker and other brands as well. This seems to be the perfect fit in terms of size, quick charging and as charger as well. The device it about the size of an iPhone 4s and very light weight. One great feature is the charging indicator, IQ USB technology which allows to perform the right charging amp automatically to multiple devices. The device itself charges in a little bit over 2 hours. For my iPhone 5s, it holds enough to charge it 2 times, in about 2 hours each time. It came with a little and nice designed bag and mini USB charging cable, no much instructions to use it other than plug it and the indicator light will let you know how much charge it has and will turn off when it is fully charge, It absolutely fits in any backpack or computer bag you may use, I have a very small one since my main computer is a Microsoft Surface, so I'm no needing extra space to carry it with me. The material used for the design, makes it look robust but at the same time very light weight. I will personally keep it for my traveling, I'm also contemplating get another one for family travel, and about that I did tested by doing a full charge of my iPhone 5s and about 40% charge for my daughter's iPad 2. Which is not too bad considering it can fully charge an iPad 2 and still some left for a iPhon 5s. So, over all I think this a serous competitor if you are in the market for an small, light weight and reliable battery charger. A LED flash light could be a nice feature but no a deal killer for me. I was supplied a sample for test and evaluation, and I promised that my review is fair and honest

    I was supplied a sample for test and evaluation, and I promise that my review is fair and honest.
    As you can see in the photos, you cannot beat the size for a device with 5000 capacity. It's light and smaller then your average sized wallet.
    It is super easy to use with an easy to see battery gauge that is very clear and accurate in letting you know how much battery power you have left or what the current charging level is at.
    Any smartphone user would really benefit from this product and at this point as my phone dies multiple times a day (conversation for a different time), but anyone who has battery issues as I do will love this.
    I have used over 25 different portable chargers over the years and this is as good or better then the ones I have tried, including charge speed (for non quick charge it is uniquely fast, less then a percent a minute), its durability, and battery life.
    I keep it with me all day, and I do not feel its weight in my pocket and I even charge it on the go from my pocket to the holster, which is super efficient.
    The cord is extremely durable and long enough to use even from my pocket, so it is out of mind and still in use. Obviously you ca get any charging cable but its nice to initially have along (but not too long) and a durable one.
    I have already dropped it numerous times, not a scratch so far it is a really durable piece! very click too!
    Overall VERY happy with this product, and I highly recommend it for anyone at this price especially.

    I bought this as my iPhone battery was dying and not holding a charge anymore.

    This ≈10cm charger will let me use my dying iPhone all day and with its small size you almost forget you are carrying it around in your pocket.

    Although I will have to get my iPhone battery replaced (which Apple have quoted £268 to do) this charger purchased for £13.99 will at least let me continue in the meantime.

    Charging time for the PowerCore is a couple of hours, it comes with the necessary Micro-USB cable (which you can then also use to charge any Micro-USB device from the PowerCore) but you will need to have your own cables for an iPhone or other devices that do not have the standard D-Shaped Micro-USB port.

    I would highly recommend purchasing one of these to anyone who has a smartphone or USB chargeable device.

    I purchased the Anker PowerCore 5000 roughly a month ago, in black and find it to be excellent.
    It’s so neat and robust to look at and feels nice and smooth in your hand. Not heavy at all.
    It comes with a lead for charging the Powerbank, also, a very useful little bag. All packaged beautifully in a box with instructions.
    I bought this to take on a trip to Australia with me, to charge my iPhone 6s, plus my iPod Nano, this it did admirably. I wasn’t sure if there would be charging facilities on the planes. There were as it turned out but it’s nice to be prepared.
    I took it with me on a trip to the mountains also and it did all that I expected it to do, still with power to spare.
    When it arrived it was about a third charged, so I charged it fully, this took a couple of hours. I then tested it out on my 6s, my iPod and my iPad mini and was pleased with the results, it charged all of them probably from about half way, still leaving plenty of power in the Powerbank.
    My daughter was very taken with this also, so naturally, doing what Mothers do, I bought her one. She chose the white and said it’s “Brilliant Mum” takes it everywhere. As with mine, fits easily in your bag. In the little pouch provided.
    I complimented my purchase with an Anker PowerLine +11, foot long lightning cable. This too is an excellent product and one you feel is safe to use with your gadgets and is of high quality.
    I initially wasn’t sure if I wanted a cylinder type one or a flat one, ideally I would have liked to try the two different kinds. I did have a moment when my “Smartie Tube” one rolled off the seat on the plane and I was wrestling it from the feet of my surprised traveling companion in the row in front. My fault entirely however.
    Well, I didn’t get to try the two kinds, I chose this type and it’s a little piece of equipment I feel is a definite must have.
    Would highly recommend this product.

    Little sceptical about the capacity, but i really didn't want to buy the 10000+mAH battery banks as they get quite heavy and bulky going past 5000mah. Anyway, Tried this one, and i think its "fairly" compact. The round cylinder design is not small, yet not huge enough to be a burden. Lets say you're going to get some interesting looks as you walk down the street with it in your front trouser pockets. The best i can compare the size to is a tube of Smarties chocolate.

    Charging the battery bank takes about 60 - 90 minutes for me. Initially I was getting roughly 1 full mobile phone charge before it indicated low. But after usage and a couple charges over night - i found i was getting just under2 full charges for my Samsung Galaxy s10+. So it seems when you get your new battery bank - you'll need to use it and fully charge it a few times before you get full capacity out of it.

    The only major con i found with this product is the input port used to charge the battery bank - its still using a micro USB instead of a USB-C, meaning i have to carry a dedicated micro usb cable around with it rather than use the same cable i use on my phone. A minor con ( which i think they should also improve) is the power indicators, there are only 3 lights indicating the amount of charge left in the battery bank. I would like it in a future update that they add some extra lights (maybe 4 or 5 lights) to help me better gauge how much charge is left.

    Would i recommend this? Yes - its not too heavy and the size is just about right. Its simple to use. Yes the micro-usb is an annoyance, but i can live with it. I do hope they will update this product with a USB-C input soon!

    Reviewed in the United States on 7 October 2018
    I bought a PowerCore 5000 about a year ago when I had an older phone and the 5000 has been a lifesaver. When it is fully charged, I can charge my phone 2+ times. The product and packaging are solid, well designed, and (as I recall) all of it was recyclable. The unit is on the heavy side compared to less powerful chargers, but I am away from electricity often so I find that it is worth carrying all the time. It even has a soft case w/ drawstring for carrying it in that offers a bit of protection. I had to troubleshoot a problem and (even though it may have been user error) customer service was quick, helpful and respectful. I was not familiar with Anker before this except for their cables Anker and I will definitely look to them for future purchases.

    This portable charger from Anker is fantastic!! I have a number of Anker products as I find their build quality, performance, and price to be outstanding. This PowerCore 5000 is no exception. I have a much larger portable Anker charger,
    but I was looking for something small to stash in my purse. This one is perfect! I can't believe how compact and slim it is and the materials are superb. Anker includes everything you need - the battery, USB to Micro USB charging cable, and even a very nice quality carrying pouch - see my 3 pictures. The box and packaging itself are very nice too which is great because I think this product makes a really great gift.

    Performance is stunning as always from Anker. I have used this to charge my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus phone, Sony Alpha A6000 camera, Jaybird X2 Bluetooth earbuds, iPad Pro 9.7", iPad Mini 4 (with appropriate cables) and quite a few other devices as well. All charged flawlessly and quickly. Fully recharges in no time as well!

    This is the Anker USB to lightning cable I use to charge my iPads: Anker 6ft Nylon Braided USB Cable with Lightning Connector [Apple MFi Certified] for iPhone 6s Plus / 6 Plus, iPad Pro Air 2 and More (Space Gray)

    This is the larger capacity Anker charger I use when I need additional backup charging: [Most Compact 20000mAh Portable Charger] Anker PowerCore 20100 - Ultra High Capacity Power Bank with Most Powerful 4.8A Output, PowerIQ Technology for iPhone, iPad and Samsung Galaxy and More (Black)

    I'm so happy with the PowerCore 5000 and it has really exceeded my expectations. While I did a sample to evaluate, my review is absolutely honest and accurate. I feel the Anker PowerCore 5000 is a excellent purchase and value at retail price, and I will be recommending it to friends, family, and coworkers for sure.
