Anker VS Aukey

Iāve had products from both. In general, no major issues from Aukey. I will agree with others, Ankerās products seem to be better quality. Iāve also noticed Ankerās customer service is better, which scores big points in my book.

funny you mention that because my supervisor said the same exact thing.
Though Iāve seen Aukey products before, my sister actually bought some of the USB-C to regular USB converters for her Macbook. The quality looked ok but she told me she had a lot of problems with taking her cord out of there.
I have a few Aukey products. They do the job but the quality of the products arenāt as good as Ankerās.
For me personally āqualityā is more than having no issues.
Especially for power banks efficiency is very important.
It simply means you can get more juice out of it. For me thatās very important.
Itās so important for me that I would pick the efficient power bank over one that lasts longer due to build quality.
I think thatās a difficult question because what you want is also part of quality.
Userfriendlyness is quality too.
As an example I wouldnāt even consider a āqualityā 26000mAh powerbank sold for $5 if it doesnāt charge itself with at least 4A.
Likewise a powerbank must be able to charge devices while itās being charged itself. If not, it needs to be redesigned and I wonāt spend a single cent on it.
I will admittedly say that I use both Anker and Aukey. Aukey mostly for the wall adaptor and the power cores I find the quality it great and the price more affordable BUT I am leaning more towards Anker for the lighting cords and Bluetooth earbuds and Iām starting to use the wall adaptor if there is one thing I may suggest is to lean up on the wall adaptor. I know the quality it there but can it be made smaller??

Thank you for your suggestion! We improve the size of wall adaptor!

Smaller is good if it doesnāt mean something else will be sacrificed.
I think itās impossible to build a 3.0A charger thatās as tiny as a 0.1A charger.
While not claiming I have seen every charger on the planet I have yet to find the tiny and powerful combination.
Most things are a tradeoff. Everyone wants a 26,000mAh powerbank that has the size of 2,600 powerbank.
I just hope Anker also keeps selling chargers for people that want lots of power out of lots of ports.
Of course Anker has the better products and service!!! Never would buy Aukey anymore!! But thatās my opinion!!! Greetings from Mannheim Germany

Thatās pretty subjective, Aukey is a pretty worthy competitor for Anker.

Even though Aukey is not bad at all, most will agree that Anker products are generally better made and I would definitely go with Anker first in all categories except for wall chargers.
For those of us that need a wall charger with an EU/UK plug instead of the US plug (and donāt want to buy those annoying external adaptors), Aukey is the better choice since they have a MUCH wider range of chargers with EU/UK plugs and those chargers are much more available (Amazon, eBay, AliExpress).
Letās say I want the Anker PowerPort Lite 2 Ports 12W with the EU plug (which they do make), itās impossible to find apart from a couple eBay crazies that sell it for 2x/3x the price -_-
Anker still doesnāt have 60W USB-C charger? Iād like one device that can charge my laptop, phone and one other device.
leaving on 2 month trip later this month, would like to have that.
a small wall charger would be best.

There is one in the works, but havenāt heard anything since it was shown off and an expo.
Imo, Anker is still top dog in this segment BUT the gap is closing. Aukey, Ravpower, and Taotronics are just a few companies Iāve tried and been surprised with the quality.
IMO Anker has this last year crossed into a 2nd rate innovator in charging tech, the release speed of PD is glacial, the pushing of IQ2 into more products is glacial, e.g. no new Powerport4.
Iām seeing a focus on audio and home automation products.

Iāve seen their products and from what Iāve read about them and heard from people I know who have their products. I would trust Anker products over Aukey.
I donāt think this would be a good to discuss this because of bias. Look at the stats of the products and get the most optimal one and whichever you like.
