Why is this top for popular deal but not a single comment? Anyone try this and know how well it works? Not very trusting of eBay seller products.

This came with one of my Anker battery packs. It's fine, it's about the size of the old Apple 5W chargers. They have a newer version that is 20W though.

It's probably a pretty good deal for the price, but some may want to put that money towards a 20W charger instead, which is ideal for fast charging the new iPhones.

I think the eBay seller is Anker themselves (ankerdirect).

And I believe this is the link for the same product on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B084GTXTMD/

20W if you want to take full advantage of fast charging or if you plan on getting a MagSafe charger.

Almost no difference. You can get 18 watt no name brand usb-PD and it charges just as fast as the anker. 20 watt charges just a tad faster.

I have one of these and love it. Replaced a Google pixel adapter. Charges my iphone XS max quickly. Only thing to look out for is USB PD limited to 9v 2amp. No 12v for ipad pro full speed charging. But at the size it is, you can't complain. Anker sells another one that's roughly the size of the ipad adapter than is closer to 30w.

Notice that the product you linked has no mention of a warranty and you have to contact the seller? That's part of the reason I don't mind paying for Anker. Quality products. Lifetime or otherwise lengthy warranty on most products, excellent and responsive customer service. Easy warranty replacement.

I believe the iPhones are capped at 20w. Lab tests reveals 22w.

I have one and it works very well. Prongs are not foldable (if that matters to you).

Tempted to grab a second.

From a sub-par brand....

And it might literally smoke. 🔥

I'll take Anker over cheap crap any day.
