As a busy working mom on the go, I use my cell phone for everything. But between the apps, music, picture taking, emails, maps, and searching for the closest cup of coffee, some days my battery has a hard time keeping up.
Oh alright, I admit that I often forget to charge the phone too! But seriously, even fully charged my iphone barely makes it through the day (on a good day).
The Anker Astro Slim2, is a small portable, external battery pack that allows you to charge your phone on the go. It is compatible with both android and iphones, (as well as many other devices) and can fully charge your phone up to three times! Yes, three times--although I haven't had an occasion to use it more than twice in one day.
This is not just a luxury item in my life, it is an absolute necessity. It is slim and unobtrusive making it easy to carry even in a small purse. And now finally I can stop worrying about my husband getting annoyed that my phone is dead (again).
Quick tip: When using with devices other than an android, use the cable from your own plug in the USB port- that is what allows this to be compatible with so many different devices.
