I would sure like it if Anker would make something like this and expand it to a couple other models as well
What products are on your wishlist for Anker to make next?
Try our Anker PowerCore Case, hope this can meet you demand.

That is a good option but not for me. I sometimes will have to make several stops while using GPS in my truck with a magnetic holder. I don’t want to add bulk to my phone. I never leave my phone behind and using maps drains charge fast even with the battery pack. I need my phone to connect and re-charge. For now I just plug it into my USB cord every other stop to top it up.
This would be perfect for me if it is magnetic
I do not think wireless can charge fast enough for your problem, wireless is more trickle charge. Wired is more likely to keep up.
I believe you are correct. On my recent trip I was using an inferior cable and it only allowed approx 500 mAh charge and could not keep up to google maps however 700mAh charge with my phone will keep it at 100% running google maps with my screen brightness at about 50%. not sure how much charge can be expected out of wireless but I would hope for that much. The Sonic power link above incorporates a case into the system and is not wireless.
HTC Battery cases like for the U11, 10, Ultra and other phones, I’m sure alot of people would buy.
Having finally pulled the trigger on a MacBook Pro 13" to work alongside my 2015 iMac, I wouldn’t mind seeing a USB-C adapter / hub like the following, as the base models only have two USB-C ports (so one when you are charging).
This one has good reviews on the whole but it would be good to see an Anker version
Which version did you get?
Went for the new 13" non touchbar version, 256GB HHD and 16GB RAM. Even with education discount I could not justify the cost of getting the 15" model.
Should suit my needs well enough for the next 4-5 years, unless I win the lottery
Can that be banner?
Should be, it’s my motto in life. Think big spend small
Ouch that hurts…I draw the line at standing in line…online education discounts take the sting out of Apple’s ‘pull your pants down policies’
yet…
My hero is this guy, he really puts in time and effort to let us know how repairable is a device.
There are specific Anker products, the ones which are higher cost, I will not buy due to lack of repairability. 99% of Anker products though are in the <$30 range where repairability isn’t worth the time.
The higher the cost a device, the more you should be able to repair it.
Touche
Just noticed I missed “of the getting the 15” model" , getting cross eyed from watching the father’s day thread spiraling. Original post updated.
It’s definitely more like 90%.
Well not when I buy them
I would like to see the 21w Anker solar panel with 20,000 mAh of storage built into it, so that you just toss the panel out in the sun to charge and plug into the built-in power bank to charge stuff. I think a lot of people expect to plug a phone directly into a panel, but that’s not really the best way to do it. A solar panel with storage built in would be awesome because the people could plug straight into it without necessarily having to know that there’s a battery between them and the sun.
