It’s great for travel. I have my 3-in-1 belkin but the belkin I’ve had issues with it. The charger for the phone sometimes doesn’t charge the phone at random times.
First off sweet pic! I love the crow. I do think the cube is great but for travel I like the mophie that I showed off because of the bag, it just easier to pack. I’ve seen travel bags for the cube that would make it just as good. My belkin 3 in 1 is still going strong after 3 years
I may be mistaken, but isn't the big difference here that the Anker 3-in-1 has fast charging for Apple Watch 7+, and the Mophie doesn't? If Mophine did have the fast charger I'd be all over it, but I think only the Anker can fast charge....
You’re right. The mophie lists that it has a max 5w output (which is fast charging for the watches) but for whatever reason it never hits that so the Anker does charge faster after testing these longer
Hello, have you do a test or comparison on how long it takes to charge your Apple Watch ultra with the anker cube vs the fast charger cable included with the watch a maybe a 20w power brick?
I believe it was around 3 hours on the cube and I think it would be the same for the fast charge cable because the watch can take 5w but I will test this again when my watch is down to 0%
@@bucklifetech thank you! I also have an Apple Watch ultra and in my experience it takes an hour and a half to charge from 0% using a 20w power brick and a fast USB-C fast charge cable
I think mine ended up coming defective which I am not happy about. The watch charger didn’t work correctly and would overheat and not hold my watch on a steady charge. I really want another one, but I would have to wait like 2 months for it to come in :,(
Wow, that sounds hazardous too. Did you find a replacement you like? Anker has come out with a similar one that I haven’t tested yet but without the watch fast charging
mine showed up defective too today, the watch charger part does not eject at all. smh
I like the fact I can watch movies and tilt screen. Not just lay flat
Yes definitely a nice feature for this charger
Thank you for your video! I am wondering if the AirPods charger is magnetic? You know some product like AirPods pro 2 has a mag in them.
I wish it was, but no. You can mag them on the watch part if that isn’t in use.
@@bucklifetech Thank you for your informative reply!
I just got one. It’s sucks you don’t think it’s good for traveling 😢
I think it's compact enough for traveling but i just prefer the Mophie travel charger that I've reviewed.
Does it have a port to plug a cable to charge additional devices
It does not
Does this fast charge the apple watch?
Yes it does according to the Anker website.. it charges at 5w
Is it supposed to fast charge an Apple Watch ultra 2?
Yes it is. Any watch series 7 and up
@@bucklifetech definitely doesn’t fast charge my ultra 2. Anker apparently thinks the cube is functioning correctly even though it takes well over 2 hours to go from 0-80%.
I actually also just posted a video on this. Anker is killing the charger game right now.
Sick video dude, liked and sucbribed!
@@bucklifetech thanks man!
Do you know if either the Anker or the Mophie travel charger have been updated to support fats charge on the Apple Watch Series 7 and 8?
Yeah they both fast charge at 5w
My Anker cube takes well over 2 hours to charge my ultra 2 from 0-80%. Wouldn’t say that’s fast. I’ve had to go back to using the charger that came with my ultra 2. Wish I wouldn’t have paid $150.00 for the cube. I did talk to Anker and they said my cube is functioning correctly. So probably the last Anker product I buy.
Are you 100% sure this fast charges the Apple Watch? No other reviews state that!
There is a huge time difference in fast charge and slow charge.
The marketing ads for Anker state that it fast charges the watches series 7 and later but after testing and using it more it definitely doesn’t get as fast as the wire cable that comes with the Apple Watch Ultra.
@@bucklifetech I’ve just tested it and YES it does fast charge! It’s slightly behind the charger that comes with the watches. I tested it in my Ultra.
Interestingly, Ankers other 3 in 1 does not fast charge. Why? It came out after the Cube.
I know that one is priced lower than the cube so maybe that’s why it doesn’t fast charge the watch but to me that’s no excuse. Anything made currently should offer that. Thank you for following up and confirming with the cube!
@@bucklifetech no problem. It does highlight just how damn good the cube is. 👍
I’m excited to see what Anker will come up with qi2 and this years batch of iPhones
It's sold out everywhere
I would honestly recommend the Mophie travel charger instead, i returned the cube for that product. If you find the mophie on Zagg's website they usually always have deals on there. I've seen it 30% off multiple times. Its more versatile to me but if you are looking for a desktop or nightstand charger, try the belkin 3 in 1s.
@@bucklifetech does Morphir has a Magsafe?
Yeah it does, its still 150 but typically you can find it on sale
Have you experienced the iphone part of the mophie charger stop working after a day or so? It seems like a common problem, and I've had two of them, and both had the same issue.
No I haven’t and I hope I don’t cause that’s awful but I also only use it when I travel. Do you use yours everyday?
I’ve had the same thing happen to me, will be returning the mophie charger to the apple store and switching to this anker one tomorrow. Had it for less then a week and it started happening. Used it daily. Hope this helps
Does it fast charge the Apple Watch 7/8 ? Or just regular speed charge
Do you still need a 3-in-1 wireless charge?
Yes it fast charges the series 7, 8 and ultra
@@bucklifetechare you 100% sure? This is the only review that says it fast charges the watch.
My ultra would not fast charge and my ultra 2 doesn’t either. I have contacted Anker and I’m waiting to see if they will send me a replacement. It charged 40% in an hour. The Apple fast charger charges 80% in that same timeframe.
For less than 150 you can get the belkin 3 in one
Yeah that’s what I prefer and use at home, this cube is marketed as a travel charger but I like the mophie option one better for that too.
@@bucklifetech agree coz belkin can't fold or fit comfortably in a bag.
Do you still need a 3-in-1 wireless charge?
Guys, how much it costs?
Hi, my AirPods Pro 2nd gen won’t charge on the backside wireless charger but they charge on the main where we charge iPhone. I think it’s flaw with mine. Can you please check it with your?
My airpods pro 2 work fine on that backside charger. Do you have a case on your airpods?
@@bucklifetech yes I have a case
Having same issue
Hi there, did you solve the problem? I got the same problem and don’t know how to deal with it.
@@oce.W yes, I’ve solved it. How you place AirPods case plays the key role. After placing it check whether the backlight on the charger is orange or white. If it’s white no problem but if it turns orange pick up the case wait for the indicator to turn off and then again try placing the case. Hope this helps.
Are these type pf magsafe really safe for iphones?
Yeah this is the full 15w MagSafe charging
You really believe Apple would sell something on their website that's not good for their Product ?
@@T.O.P.S used the belkin puck charger before and it would make my phone really hot I think MagSafe is a better choice these days
It looks too squashed. It looks really cluttered and for 150 I want something elegant.
I don't disagree with you on the pricing.. its really well built though
🙏✝️🙏amen🙏✝️🙏
Hello dear, can we cooperate?
Dislike for forcing my brightness up
overpriced. Only get it with good discount
Yeah, like most things
World you recommended using the Mophie three in one for an everyday charger or this one? I like them both but I'm trying not to spend 150 two times. Anker cube is a little too heavy for a travel charger but looks very cool as a nightstand charger. Mophie is just the opposite. Cool and light for travel but not so much as a bedside charger.
I would recommend the Mophie for everyday and travel. Keep the cord and charger in the travel bag if you have an extra cable and 30w charger, then you can just throw the base in the bag when you're on the go. Go on the zagg website because its 40% off today too!!!
@@bucklifetech For some reason, the discount isn't applied for me( Is it working for you?
It did yesterday, maybe they’ll have it again for cyber Monday tomorrow
I see that it’s on sale on their website again down to 89.97.. check it out on zagg.com
@@bucklifetech already grabbed it, thanks for the tip!
