I've been a big fan of Anker's products for several years. I have battery packs, wireless headphones, and cables that have all been awesome. This is another one that doesn't disappoint. I have a Pixel 3, and one of my complaints was slow charging in the car, especially if I'm using it for navigation or something where there's constant drain on the battery (screen on being the biggest). Often times my charger couldn't even keep my battery level from continuing to reduce. So I began the hunt for something with fast charge capabilities, that wouldn't set my car on fire. This thing works great! I can plug in on a short drive, and get a quick few % of juice, and on a longer drive, arrive at my destination with a full battery.

Obviously, using fast charge makes your phone get hotter. I was already having problems with my phone overheating when in my dash mount in the sun. So I got another mount that is out of the sun and it's no problem now. Also, don't cheap out on your usb cables. They are not all the same. Anker makes some really nice braided cables, which I highly recommend.

Using this PD car charger with an Anker USB C to lightning cable and it works great with my iPhone XR!!~ When plugged in below 80% battery, my iPhone XR beep/ding as normal followed by a second beep/ding confirming PD fast charge. Folks, as for the iPhone fast charge double beep/ding, the time interval between the 1st & 2nd beep/ding is 5~6 seconds so do not be concerned if you don't hear a quick "ding-ding". It'll be a "ding----------------------ding". :o)

I haven't had a chance to fully test the "50% in 30 mins fast charge" but based on what I've seen in the past week of use, I've noticed the battery percentage climb up faster compared to my 12W Anker car charger (PowerDrive+ 2) that this new PD charger replaced. Along with the double beep/ding, I have no doubt I can get 50% in 30 mins charge performance from this charger.

I have used a wide variety of Anker products (chargers, cables, batteries, etc.) for many years and they never disappoint!! High quality performance!! :o)

I was looking for a new car charger because I have been doing Dash Cam for years and my old car chargers would still lose power while it was recording (several percent, but better than no power, as that would die fast). This not only does NOT lose power, it charges while recording video! All my tests used Genuine Apple cables.

Day 1 Test: See if it maintains the charge. This is using the USB-A port to my iPhone 7. It stayed at 100% for an hour to work and an hour back home recording video in 4k as Dash Cam (before it'd be down to 80% on my old charger).

Day 2 Test: See if would charge while in heavy use. Started test with 95% battery and recorded 4k Video on my commute. Again USB-A to my iPhone 7. When I got to work it was 100%. Very pleased to see that.

Day 3 Test: Test Dual Charging. USB-A to iPhone 7 while recording 4K video and USB-C to iPhone X. Both phone down several percent. Saw both charging, so it does provide enough power to charge 2 devices. My iPhone 7 from 95% to 100% and my iPhone X from 65% to 89% on a 35 minute drive.

Only thing I didn't test was Fast Charging, but I never let my phones get low where it requires Fast Charging.

Pros: Dual Charging. Powers devices even while in heavy use. Power indicator is not that bright (not blinding at night). Tight Socket fit. Great Price at $13 compared to competitors at $25.

Cons: None that I can think of so far...…

I'd buy again!!!

I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase of this phone car charger! The delivery was incredibly fast, and the seller was very responsive to my email inquiries.

Overall, I'm very happy with the product and the excellent customer service I received. I would definitely recommend this product and seller to anyone in need of a reliable car charger.

I purchased the below Anker products to get fast charging for my iPhone Xs Max. I'm writing this review after I performed a few different tests. As soon as I received my 5-port charger, I connected the USB-C to Lightning cable and was expecting to hear a double-beep. I didn't, nor did I see any notification that my iPhone was fast charging.

I started doing some research and decided to download an iOS app called "Amperes Lite" which shows you the current status of battery charging on your iOS device.

Test 1: I connected a standard USB to Lightning cable. Max wattage was 9.52. My battery level was already at 90% when I started this test.

Test 2: I connected the NEW Anker USB-C to Lightning cable. The max wattage was still 9.52. The battery level was still at 90%. This is when I was expecting a double-beep or some notification stating that my iPhone was fast charging. But nothing. So I hit up the internet. Basically, it seems that any Apple device that supports fast charging ONLY does so when the battery level is really low. Not only this but fast charging continues till about 75% full then slows down. At this point, I decided to drain my battery and try again later.

Test 3: With the battery now below 20%. I then connected the Anker USB-C to lighting cable to the PD port on the 5-Port and ran the test again on my app. SUCCESS. The results showed a max charge rate of 14.28 watts. I don't know what all this means but I do know that my battery was around 10-15% when I connected the charger. I went to brush my teeth, get ready for some meetings and when I came back about 30 minutes later, my battery was near 80% charged.

So there you have it. It does work but you might not hear a double-beep or see some screen notification. By the way, I also confirmed this with the car charger connected to the PD port.

The charger I got is either a dud, or is poorly designed. I have Pixel 3, and about 50% of time the charger does not charge the phone, or charges it slowly. The screen says "charging fast", but I either see no increase in battery %, or 2-5 min per 1%. Sometimes the charger works, and I get about 1 min per 1%, but this happens <50% of the time. When I see no increase in battery %, I unplug it and plug back, which most of the time gets the charging going, but this is very inconvenient. Maybe I got the faulty charger. Will return and try to get a replacement.

UPDATE 6/28/2019 (changing from 1 to 2 stars):

Anker was prompt to contact me, and I received a replacement. However, same problem: the charger does not charge my Pixel 3 rapidly, even though the screen says "charging rapidly". That was with my original Google Pixel cable, that charges fast from the wall plug, as well as Aukey cable - which I don't have any problems with when plugging to wall outlet.

I did buy Anker PowerLine II USB-C, and now I do get the fast charging. But it's not fair to spend extra $ to get the product working, so I'm only raising my review by 1*.

UPDATE (7/3/2019): changing the review to 4 stars

Anker's customer service is superb! They tried everything to resolve my issues, contacted me multiple times, always willing to help. They even refunded me for the price of the Anker cable I bought. This company really stands for their products, and their attention to customers' needs deserves high praise! I'd change my review to 5 stars, but the charger still can't charge rapidly with other cables, so will keep it 4* and let people be aware about possible charge speed issues with Pixel phones. Not sure this is happening with other devices. I'll try charging iPhones 7S & XR some day, and will report about the experience then.

Update 7/11/2019

Anker sent me a replacement, a different model, and it does charge Pixel 3 using original Google C cable. Very happy with their customer service!

I like this car charger because of the power output and the two different USB ports.

I have been pleased with all Anker products I’ve purchased, especially this high watt mobile fast charger. More than half of my work days are spent driving, and having to make and take a lot of calls. I often listen to podcasts, books, or audio from videos, and music too. I can charge my iPhone, while using it, and have 75% charge in about 30 minutes. One of the best investments this year!

Great quality and good product

Finalmente un super caricabatterie da auto per il mio Pixel 4. Una scheggia, paragonabile a quello originale da muro. Ottimo prodotto

The best car charging device out there, does the job well and has a nice slick design that delivers the power needed and has a very good usb port

Ich nutze das Anker PowerDrive PD 2 seit 2020 in meinem Golf 4 – und es funktioniert bis heute absolut zuverlässig. Egal ob iPhone, iPad oder Android-Geräte – alles lädt schnell und stabil, selbst bei längeren Fahrten.

Die Kombination aus USB-C mit Power Delivery (18W) und klassischem USB-A mit PowerIQ (12W) ist super praktisch, besonders wenn man mehrere Geräte gleichzeitig laden will. Auch das Design ist kompakt und stört nicht im Zigarettenanzünder.

Typisch Anker: Hochwertig verarbeitet, langlebig und leistungsstark. Für mich ein Muss fürs Auto – klare Kaufempfehlung!

Pour une recharge rapide en voiture. Je recommande ce chargeur avec une sortie type USB C et USB. Ça charge est ultra rapide.
