Anker Desktop Charger, 60W 6 Port USB Multiple Charging Hub

Update 9/30/2015 I've been a bit remiss in following up on the issue I had with one of my Anker Hubs. To my surprise, I received a call late last week from a Anker representative to inquire as to the status of the Hub and issues. Long story short, the representative replaced the hub. I received the hub on Sunday night, its works fine. Also, take note, the 1 out of the two original Hubs I still have from my Dec 21st 2014 order, still works flawlessly. I amend my current rating to 5 stars, for a combination of a great product and Stella customer service. Update 3/1/2015 One unit not working! I purchased the original units below, Dec 21st 2014. 2 days ago, I noticed one of the units is no longer charging my devices. I've tried all the ports and switched out the charging cables. No change. I think the box is toast. I will call Anker on Monday. Not sure what the Mean time failure rate on these devices are, but it should not be two months. :( (removing 3 stars ) I am going to give this items 5 stars. In a few weeks, I will update my review to validate the units are still functioning as intended. The unit is compact, is little bigger then a pack of cigarettes, has 6 charge ports and comes with a detachable power cord. Its Matte black (Thank goodness for that,because I hate most items in shiny black plastic. Only time I would like shiny black plastic is if it was Darth Vader shiny black; if it was, then I would request It play the light saber sound when you plug and unplug a USB device. OK ,I've swerved of the topic) As I was saying; It is Matte black in color and sports a nifty little blue power light. Set up is easy. I've charged multiple devices simultaneously such as two Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 tablets, Galaxy S3 cell phone and a Kindle Touch. My non scientific opinion is my devices seem to charger faster. When not in use,I keep this device plugged directly to my wall socket. It sits there quietly, is allowed to socialize in the room and even watch TV with me. OK now for the real important stuff. All USB cords are not equal, and their performance can vary. Please make sure you are using good quality and certified USB charge cords( preferably the ones that came with your device) Consult your device manufacture if you are not sure. Also please do not get it wet or feed it after midnight (OK, you caught me, the feeding it after midnight part is totally fictional)

We're a small, busy family of three. We have several devices that are recharged via USB -- two cell phones, two tablet devices, power banks (portable chargers), mobile speakers, etc.. I'm not a fan of waste and make a conscientious attempt to minimize our purchases as a household. We have a few USB wall chargers (the single-port ones that came with the devices), so I figured a contraption like this Anker 60W 6-Port Charger would be unnecessary. However, as time passed, I continuously found us waiting too long for a device to finish charging, often causing a "line" to form of other devices waiting their turn to get charged, and also resulting in one of us taking off and bringing a device that wasn't fully charged. Not cool for families on the go. I held off as long as I could, but began to eye this Anker 6-Port Charger. I finally pulled the trigger. Wow, after just a couple of days of using the device, we can't believe it took us this long to buy this thing. I created a makeshift charging station that hides all the cords, and placed this Anker inside. Now all our devices are charged in one location (VS 10 different places around the house), and they're charged at amazing full-speed thanks to the PowerIQ technology! It really works. For some devices with bigger batteries (ie. iPad, heavy-duty power bank, etc.), the charging time was cut in less than half. Very convenient. Another cool thing: I don't have to worry about the charging rate. PowerIQ automatically charges at the fastest speed that can be safely applied to the specific device. If you have multiple USB-charged devices and have ever found yourself frustrated with all the separate chargers or leaving the house with half-charged electronics, then this Anker charger is a must purchase. It's small, sleek, effective, and fairly priced. I have other Anker products and can attest that they do stand behind their products and have a well-deserved 5-star customer service standard. Even the packaging is very attractive -- great if you're getting this as a gift, which I'm sure any busy family would love.

Worked great! I bought this for my classroom to charge my cordless touch table lamps. I am able to charge 6 of them at a time and quickly with this great charger. Anker is a great brand.

I’ve been using the Anker PowerPort 6 as a central charging station for my devices, and it’s been incredibly reliable. With 6 USB ports and 60W of total power, it easily handles multiple devices at once, including phones, tablets, and accessories, without overheating or throttling. Charging speeds are solid - not quite fast-charging like USB-C PD, but more than adequate for overnight or desk-side charging. I’ve used it for iPhones, iPads, Android devices, and even some USB-powered gear in my workshop, and it’s kept up without issue. The build is compact and clean-looking, and it’s helped me cut down cable clutter by giving everything a single charging point. It also travels well - lightweight and durable enough to toss in a bag when needed. If you’re looking for a dependable multi-port USB charger for your home, office, or even travel, this one is a great balance of power, ports, and price. Highly recommended.

This is a very compact six port charger. It charges fast! I charge phones, wireless earphones, wireless guitar transmitters/receivers and anything else with a rechargeable battery and a USB connector. You won’t be disappointed.

**UPADTE** After almost 4 years of ownership, this device has outlasted so many other electronics. It continues to charge most of the portable devices in our home. It has charged our devices for thousands of hours, and it has come on many family vacations with us, and never fails. I 3D printed a box for it to hang it next to the outlet so it's more stable, and ditched the iPad charger plug. I really wish Anker made a version with 6+ ports and 1 or two PD ports, because I'd buy it right freakin' now to replace this one. Anker makes awesome devices. --ORIGINAL REVIEW-- I hate to give this thing a 4 star review, but I believe there's one very important thing it needs. It's a great size, and great form, with excellent charging capabilities. However... it would be the PERFECT device if it were to have flip-out prongs for a standard AC plug, along with the standard plug to use a cord. It would mean one could use it for traveling without bringing a cord. In my case, I popped the plug off of an iPad charger, and plugged it into this. We have a location in our kitchen where we charge all our devices, and there's nowhere to put this little device on the wall. The exterior case is of a material that does not accept sticky substances such as velcro, so I can stick it to the wall. With the iPad plug, It's plugged directly to the wall, with easy access to all 6 ports. I would buy like 3 more of these things if that were the case, but I'm on the search for a better travel charger that will give me the ability to charge a couple iPads and phones all at one, when the family is on a trip. With 4 people, 4 iPads, a couple kindles, and 3 iPhones, there's a lot of crap to charge sometimes. Regardless of my wants, this is an absolutely stellar device, and I wouldn't steer anyone away from buying one.

I use these as travel chargers. One for myself, one for my wife, and one I use for work. Each is packed in its own bag (bought separately on Amazon) with cables for the devices that need to be charged. The only minor drawback is that they are USB-A connections and not C, but I also bought Anker A to C cables and that solves that dilemma, besides I still have some older Apple devices that use the older A to Lightning connector. I also like the fact that has a separate cable to connect the charger to the wall power and has some thickness to it as well as length. Anker is about the only name that seems to be able to make a product that is reliable, and last more than one usage. The last thing you need is a charger that stops working in the middle of your vacation. You will not go wrong in buying one of these. In closing its functionality and durability are reliable and it seems to be compatible with all my devices. Works great on cruise ships too!!!

I was looking for 2.3 to 2.5 amps per port and got the right product (this one is 2.4 amps, but fine as there is no such product that offers this specification). I am using 5 ports only to ensure my ampere requirement is met. For people who are looking for a power supply that meets your demand of raspberry Pi 3 clusters, this is the right product. I have 3 Raspberry Pi cluster with 5 RPi per each cluster, hence I bought three pieces of this product and satisfied with the way it is working.

I recently purchased the Anker 60W 6-Port USB Wall Charger, and I couldn't be happier! This charger has truly transformed the way I charge my devices. With six ports, I can easily charge my iPhone, iPad Pro, Air, Mini, and iPod all at once without any hassle.

I love that it's compact and travel-friendly, making it perfect for both home and on-the-go charging. The build quality is top-notch, and Anker’s reputation for reliability shines through. The intelligent charging technology ensures that each device gets the optimal power it needs, which gives me peace of mind. Plus, the sleek design fits well with my home decor. Overall, I highly recommend the Anker PowerPort 6 to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient charging solution. It’s an essential accessory for anyone with multiple devices!

I've bought 2 of these now. First to replace the dozen of chargers that used to live in my living room, and now, also for my bedroom. The amount of clutter saves is fantastic, it really does replace half a dozen chargers. As with any anker product, you know this is a reliable product that won't catch on fire and burn your house down the moment you turn around, and the amount of wall sockets and space saved by combing 6 or more wall adapters into 1 is a literal LIFE CHANGER ====Technical fast charge talk below, feel free to skip if you're not a geek==== However, I see alot of reviewers saying this anker charger is a "fast charger" or "charges slow" or whatever - Let me clarify that. Alot of phones these days are coming out with all sorts of proprietary charging speeds. All those "65watt or 100 watt" or whatever speed charging technologies DO NOT work with this anker charger - For those charging speeds to be reached, your phone, your charging cable, AND your charging adapter all need to do a "handshake" for the controller chip in the phone, and wall adapter to initiate a high speed charge. Yes that's right, every wall adapter has a kind of "logic chip" in it to prevent overvolting devices. This Anker charger instead is indeed what we used to call "quick charge" back when charging speeds were slower, like Quick Charge 1.0 being 20watt back in the early 2010's decade, which evolved to 36watt by the around 2016, and has sprouted into the hilarious "arms race" we have today where each company is trying to market increasingly rediculous numbers of "watts" and charge speed using all sorts of proprietary technology which Anker is obvisouly not allowed to license or use. So no, you're not going to be able to charge your new iphone at it's fastest possible charging speed using this anker charger, or your newest samsung at it's newfangled, however many hundreds of watts chargespeed we'll be reaching in the next few years- But honestly, you probably don't want to charge at those speeds anyway. Higher speed charging causes more heat. More heat in your battery accelerates degredation, the speed at which your battery permanantly loses capacity, which is why your old phones run out of battery so quickly. This anker charger might only charge at 10 or 20 watts, but honestly, that's enough for most people, and will actually result in better battery life in the long run.

The product is surely costly. Almost 3 times to the current Amazon's recommended USB charger. But Anker products have great reviews and proved performance. I was able to charge PS4 controller, digital watch, power bank very quickly. Currently, lot of products don't come with dedicated chargers, this is where this particular product comes very handy with providing 2.4 A of power per port and combined 12A if all ports are used. I will be updating the long term review. Though it has impressed me a lot.

Superb charger. Reviewing after 3months usage Must have if u are having multiple devices. Charges quite quickly but its not a lightning charger (tested with one plus) even if all the devices are connected still only gets warm. Wires and device is of really sturdy quality. Really helpful while travelling coz i do have apple, android, watch, and usbc devices and while going somewhere its always doubtful if taken all the charges.
