Veho Pebble Smartstick Portable Power Bank | 2,200mAh | Smartphone Charger | iPhone Charger | Samsung Charger | Battery Pack - Black - (VPP-002-SSB)

Bought this to use for my Samgsung Galaxy S4 Mini as the battery life is low based on my medium to heavy use of the phone.So i thought when i go on a night out I know I will be covered for extra power and fits nice and easy in my bag with the pocket sock included.All attachements are there and I tested with my phone to make sure it does it's job and right enough it does it's thing. Best to note it is best to use when phone is off if you want it to charge faster and although it says on the box that it is ready to use, I actually plugged mines into my PC first thing and was met with a blue light...overnight the light turned red which means it is now fully charged.Someone had mentioned this in a review before so thought I would highlight that again if anyone missed that.

Having changed from a Blackberry (6 days average battery life) to a Samsung Galaxy 3 (average 36 hours battery life) I bought this device to guard against having a dead phone when traveling and unable to use the charger. Generally I'm very pleased and would recommend it on the following basis1/ It's quite light and compact - can be carried easily in a pocket.2/ If you only have one phone (or rather, one type of connector) then you only need to carry one cable which can also be used to connect your phone to your laptop when required.3/ It's easy to use (except see below)4/ It took about 5 hours to fully charge the Pebble from empty using the USB port on my home PC.6/ The "sock" is pretty useless - as another reviewer stated, since there is no closure the Pebble falls out all the time.7/ The instructions which come with the Pebble are useless. The picture shows with a device with one central socket for the charging cable whereas the real thing has a micro-USB and a full-size USB. They also fail to describe that there is a blue light to indicate that the device is charging which turns red when charging is complete. A fundamental omission! Fortunately I had read other reviews which described this.8/ As other reviewers have commented, it would be very useful to have some indication of charge level remaining in the Pebble.8/ After a full re-charge it restored my Galaxy 3 from 7% Battery to 80% Battery - not fantastic but acceptable.Overall good value for the money if you want a convenient emergency power supply for traveling.

Great product, good size for carrying and works really well. I gave one in a present at Christmas 2014 and now have one myself as the person said they use it all the time as they travel away from home in remote areas. It is easy to use and does fully charge your phone. Lovely colour, I got the purple and looks good quality. Would highly recommend.

This does exactly as it says it does. I carry it with me all the time and twice it has been really useful when the phone battery has drained faster than I expected. Ive now been using this for a few weeks and a flaw has emerged. When carrying it in my pocket (carefully tucked into an inside pocket) attached to the phone, to charge it, the wires parted company from the phone connector and the soldering of the connector to the wires seems very poor and fragile. This is a great pity as it is a genuinely useful device but is now no good to me for charging my phone....... The answer may be to only use it when making a call or using the phone and not rely on it to charge the phone whilst being carried.

I purchased this as a means to charge my phone whilst on a trip abroad. It managed to keep my phone at 100% charge for almost a whole day without need of recharging. I am going to be honest; the time it takes for the smartstick to charge completely is a bit on the slow side, but it is worth the amount of charge you are receiving. Overall, this is worth the price, as it provides great ulterior means of charging on the go, and is small and light enough to carry on person without it burdening you.

Sorry but I have to say its rubbish. Plugged it in to charge it, shows red when finished.my phone was down to 4% battery and when I plugged in the smart stick indicator didn't move from 4% so cannot recommend this unless its faulty, either way its going back seller ok about it but not taking a chance on another one.

This is brilliant for my Samsung S3, I was amazed that I could use the phone whilst it was charging and then continue to use the phone again after the charge was complete and then plug in again for a second charge before having to recharge the pebble. This is brilliant for a small phone like mine. However it would not charge the S4 (obviously the S4 battery is too large for it to make an impact on it) so make sure you are getting this for charging the smaller products.

I ordered this in good time for a long train journey I was going on to make sure that my iPhone 4S would not run out of juice, as can sometimes happen on long journeys. I read the reviews and it did appear to work OK for this type of phone (unlike the 3GS). When it arrived the box said the pebble was fully charged and ready to go so I followed the instructions and plugged it into my iPhone. The phone was supposed to recognise as being charged, but nothing! I wondered if perhaps the pebble had lost its charge, so I charged it from my PC. As the light had gone blue, it meant that it was not fully charged, so I left it a few hours until the light went red (well more pink really) and tried again.... still nothing! I therefore had to return it to the seller for (as I thought) a replacement, but then I found that you can only have a refund. I think I will try one more and then give up. Looking at the other reviews there do seem to be a number that don't work, so if you need one for a particular event/journey, don't wait until the last minute in case you get one of the many defective ones out there. I am not going to get mine in time now unfortunately.

J'avais entendu parler des recharges pour portable via câble USb sans jamais pouvoir en utiliser. cet article est très pratique : il faut le charger sur le secteur puis le brancher au téléphone lorsque celui voit sa batterie presque à plat. Je recommande

Funktioniert super. Einzig und allein die lange Ladezeit stört ein wenig. Aber man braucht auch nicht zwangsläufig Laptop oder PC zum aufladen. Einfach Kabel anders stecken und ab in die normale Steckdose.

Ottimo anche se mancano i led per vedere lo stato di carica.Per il resto bene sia come capacita' di caricamento sia come varieta' di spinotti gia' compresi

entrega rapida, buen precioes pequeño, cabe en el bolsillo del pantalonme recargó la bateria casi agotada y me permitió continuar otro día completo dandole uso intensivo a mi motorola defy plusrecomendable para cualquier situacion donde no se tenga opcion de recargar el smartphone, principalmente en excursiones al campo o lugares sin opcion de recarga.

Diciamo che la tecnologia è in continua evoluzione. Il prodotto è di buona qualità ma non l ho pagato tantissimo e la carica non è potentissima. Per le urgenze però è ottimo.
