Cons: doesn't work (has problem charging devices on their approved list)
Pros: looks nice, lightweight. Comment:
2 broken units in 4 months. The first time, it would charge my device half way & run out of power. The second time, after a few uses, it can't recharge any device. even devices on their approved list. Shipping to teh RMA depot is $10 each time. bought the unit for $30 (thank god it was on sale!) |

Cons: Short charge cable.
Pros: Small form factor Comment:
I purchased one of these in December and it worked very well up until a few days ago. The battery has a power button and now it will not turn on to charge a device. Currently in the process for RMA by Antec because its out of NCIS's 30 day warranty. |

Cons: Not as good as expected battery life, high temps
Pros: Light, compact, good for charging most devices. Comment:
A pretty good unit for the price, a lot smaller than other 6000mah I have seen. Get what you pay for but pretty good quality as expected from Antec. The smaller size leads to some higher temperatures in extended charging sessions. Works on all of my devices. |

Cons: Charge won't stay if charging with included usb cable.
Pros: Stylish, easy to use, white color... Comment:
Edit: Just feeling lucky, I tried the AP-6000 again with my phone's original usb cable in stead of the one that came in the package, it actually charged alright, but still leaving one bar after charging my Motorola RAZR HD which has 2530 mAh battery. changing the rating to 3 stars.6000MAH is only for advertising here! After charging my Motorola RAZR HD, which has a 2530mAh battery, this AP-6000 battery only has one bar left! Yes, it charged so fast, but the charge also drops so fast! My phone's standby used to consume 1% battery over night, after using this battery for charging, 64% of battery went to 0% in 8 hours just standby with no Wi-fi,Data,Sync,or anything else! I couldn't even turn on the phone for a while after plugging it in with original power adapter. Not only the charge won't stay, my phone battery started draining like crazy during standby even after charging again with a regular chager. The situation did not change until I reset the phone, and charged it with the original Motorola charger for 6 hours. I'm giving it five star rating because I want this review to show up right away. If review deleted, I will post again.

Cons: Cannot charge many tablets or phonesSupplied cable is only good for charging the device
Pros: Powerful battery for the priceCharges from microusb (convenient) Comment:
The people that designed this didn't follow the USB charging standards, it's instead made with the data pins doing whatever stupid thing apple and samsung devices like. If I plug my Nokia phone in, it's reporting a charge rate of less than 50ma with everything idle and the screen on. If I use a computer USB it gets at least 6x that, and if I use the wall adapter it gets about 14x the power.They could have easily included a cable or way to switch the device to a mode that would do this. |
Only had this a few weeks so I can't say much about durability. It takes for ever to charge which is bad but otherwise it works as advertised.
