  Bottom line

  Anker's 2nd Gen Astro3 is the successor to its wildly popular Astro3E. It boasts more power (12,000 mAh as opposed to the 3E's 10,000) and powers up to three devices at once.
  

  Design

  Smart port; smart design. Anker's 2nd Gen Astro3 offers a wallop of power (12,000 mAh battery) in a small package. Astro3 isn't the lightest, smallest or trendiest on the market -- it comes in black or white, weighs less than a pound and is about the size of a dense smartphone -- but reviewers rave about its triple-port design, including a smart port that can identify your devices and ensures they're charging at full speed. (For example, Apple and Android devices tend to require different levels of power.) Three devices can be charged at once. The battery includes a 10-point LED indicator, which gives more detail on the battery's status than competitors' indicators that use colors or fewer lights. Instead of an on/off button, the Astro3 can be shaken awake. It also includes a micro USB cable.
  

  Performance

  Charges tablets and phones, with room to spare. The Anker Astro3 is powerful enough to charge multiple devices at once. All three of its ports are compatible with a plethora of Apple and Android devices. PhoneArena.com reports that the Astro3 gave six full charges to an iPhone 5s and four charges to other smartphones in its tests. One Amazon.com user found it could fully charge an iPad 2 and still have some power left; a travel blogger reports it could simultaneously charge an iPad, Android tablet and iPhone. Gizmag.com notes that the maximum charge on the universal ports (1.5 Amp) is designed for Androids, so iPhone users seeking the fastest charge should use the smart port. The Astro3 can't be used while it's being recharged, however, and its battery takes about 10 hours to fill up.
