There are several reviews by owners and members on the forum, some with demo videos aswell. The original and 2nd gen SoundCore 2 have brilliant battery life and audio quality, IMO

Universal Magnetic Car Mount
That is a serious magnet.
I own a bunch of Anker products, but this one quickly became my favorite. It’s small, it is highly functional, it is beautiful, it is made very-very well and did I say it looked good? It does.
The Universal Magnetic Mount consists of two pieces, er, 3 kind of. A large round magnet, and a steel ball attached to small cone shaped base. The round magnet piece fits right over the steel ball and that’s it, you’ve assembled your mount. The cone shaped base has a sticky on the bottom for sticking it to the final mounting place you’ve chosen, and the rest is done using some pretty powerful magnetism.
Seriously though, this magnet is super strong. Steel plates are also included and either put those in phone’s case on the back, or stick them to your bare phone. You are now living in style.
Magnetic phone holders are the greatest thing since sliced bread and this is the best phone holder by far. You can swivel the phone around with ease on the ball the magnet sticks to and the magnet keeps your phone on there for whatever the road can dish. I haven’t had my phone drop once since I’ve had it and I’ve hit bumps, knocked it on accident, more bumps and it stays every time. I never knew I could feel this way about a phone mount, but here are.
Oh, and it’s only like 15 bucks. I spent 30 on another kind and it doesn’t even compare. Also, it’s so pretty and that magnet is so strong. I’m getting more and sticking my phones and tablets everywhere. Shoot, I think it may be strong enough to hold my kids.

The Anker powerdrive speed 2 reached and exceeded my expectations! The package arrived securely well within the expected delivery date and the Anker packaging is very clean and neat and draws you in as a product user. The car charger itself is very robust and feels strong and well built when held in your hands. When plugged in both ports can be used to achieve maximum power output and efficiency. As always with Anker I am very happy with this product!!

Second test began with one full minute of the solar panel sitting in the sun without the iPhone(y) plugged in, followed by five minutes of charging directly with an apple cable. I saw 4% increase in battery. I will update my video review. That’s a really good thing to know about iPhone - I had no idea.
Nothing too fancy for me, but I love all of my Anker products, my portable charger, car charger, PowerPort 2 Elite, IPhone screen protector, and PowerCore Case. I rely on them heavily to keep me charged and pumped through my day. I love them so much and I’m just happy to have the opportunity to be apart of the Anker family. 
to all the people I’ve met over the years.

from what % was +4%?
Which iPhone?
68%-72% iPhone 6s
Thanks for your love and passion! Although the review campaign has ended, you can still participate in our next campaign. I would glad to see you again.
Solar panel is 10W output so in one hour is 10Wh. The iPhone 6S It has a 6.91 Wh battery, the pre-trickle 80% period is so 5.5Wh for 80%. so you’d expect 0%-80% in 5.5/10 = 0.55hr or 33mins, or 1% in 33m/80=0.41m or 25s , so at 10W output (max possible from that panel) a full recharge should afford 1% every 25s.
You got 4% in 5m, so 1% in 1.25s so you were observing 3x slower than theoretical.
Possible reasons:
- the iPhone s6 is a slower recharging phone, from reviews seems that may be the case
Observe it draws 6W, and only as much for half the time, so the pre-trickle phase ends at 0.9 hours not 0.55hr.
- the act of using a phone slows its recharge, if you had turned it off, it might have charged faster. 5 mins is also a short time, the phone still warm.
Note: from any % to 100% is utter nonsense to ever measure as trickle charge makes everything move at a crawl, only a % to 80% is of any value to compare.
Another way to put this is that the Anker 21W solar panel is “too powerful” for the iPhone, so your review method to fully use all the output of the 21W via the Powercore II 20000, is one approach. Another approach is to use the 2 USB outputs to charge the iPhone plus another device to not waste sunshine, or (what backpackers seem to favor) use the 14W version to shave a few oz.
Anker has become my go-to brand for charging products. Everything from rapid charging outlets to portable batteries to USB cord are durable, well made, and functional. Three years ago, I asked a friend for a recommendation on a portable battery as I had been extremely unsatisfied with ones I had purchased off the shelf and he sent me the amazon link for Anker. Let’s just say, I’ve never looked back. This is my 3rd Anker PowerCore 10000 product, and each one has been better than the last! My family and friends borrow them all the time and they still hold a charge, even that first one from 3 years ago! I purchased the Anker PowerCore II Slim 10000 for the form factor as I have been often finding myself using my phone while charging. This charger is everything as described; both light and thin, it closely mimics the dimensions of my smartphone while the silicon side is soft and grippy - ergonomic is the word that comes to mind. I have been able to get 2+ full charges on my smartphone while in use.My favorite thing is the technology packed into this device. It detects and delivers the fastest charge safely. I have had several rapid chargers in the past that cause my phone to feel like it’s overheating, especially if it is in a case, but I have never had this problem since I started using Anker charging products with IQ technology. Again, I often use my phone while charging using the Anker PowerCore II Slim 1000 and both devices (phone and charger) remain at a comfortable temperature.In short, Anker makes great products and the PowerCore II Slim is a fantastic device. Looking forward to purchasing more innovative devices from Anker!

Hi @James_Wilton , this campaign has now ended and winners announced. Your welcome to post reviews but it might be best to have the review separate from this thread to allow better feedback direct to your review. Photos and/or video are also a nice touch that can be added.

OK I currently own 2 anker older 24hr speaker, I use it for work at Costco I work the grave yard it’s nice and loud and the battery literally last all week long never failed, I just received the Sound Core 2 now my issues with this is the blue tooth seems to be weaker then the original which is an issue. The Bass is good but not as Good as the Sony XB30 you’ll hear and notice the difference and its huge now as for loudness and sound quality the sound core 2 rocks and its even better now with the water resistant but my only gripe is if your gonna make it water proof why not add drop protection by making it more rugged… The four stars is for Blue Tooth issues because if you can’t rely on the blue tooth to work then the speaker itself is kinda useless

It indeed is a great cable very durable, the only thing i wished is that this cable would become the standard cable for all iOS Devices.
My experience with Anker is tremendous and as per my expectations, Anker fulfill everything. That’s way I love this brand. Since early 2015 I have made around 15 orders through my friends from USA. Like power bank, Different type of lightning cables, Protection cover, Temper glasses for my iPhone. Simply say, In a single brand a user can get the function of even more than one item. Which is inexpensive, cost effective, Longest lifetime with reliability and user/Customer satisfaction.
