Packaging:
The box was packaged nicely and modern.
The PowerPort is very lightweight. The cable is thick and braided, giving the feeling that it will not crack or fall apart.
It came with a Velcro strap to wrap up the cord while in transit.
Two AC ports on each side for convenient charging, plus two USB-A ports in the front and a USB-C port on the front. ( I don’t have a USB-C device to I was unable to test that port)
The bottom of the PowerPort has a nice feature of a rubber ring around the edge to prevent slipping.
Plugged 4 devices into the hub at once and after an hour of charging, it’s barely warm to the touch.
I tested this at home and in the office and it’s very handy. Convenient to have AC and USB ports right there instead of having wires coming from different areas.
A small, but very very cool feature I liked is that the wall plug where the cable is located, is on an angle, so you can fit it above another plug without having to swap them to fit. Nice thought out feature!
Charging the kids Kindle Fire’s was an ease
Charging four devices at the same time is easy with the hub, and of course there are a few cords in an area, but it’s really convenient.
I really like this hub. I noticed significant faster charging times for the first 20-30%, and then to top off the battery it seemed to take normal time.
If you need a quick top-off for your device, this is the hub for you.
If you travel and have multiple devices that need to be charged at the same time, this is the hub for you.
All-in-all, a great product, solid construction, easy to use, space saving and compact. The fact that you can charge AC, USB-A and USB-C devices all at the same time makes this a must-have.
Thanks, Anker, for letting me test this out! I look forward to being able to test future products.
appreciate it. This was my first review on here so I wanted to make sure I did a good job!!
