Mobile phones are our lives these days and our inability to be without one is unbelievable. I work in the trade on building sites and this can limit my ability to charge up my mobile phone, so have had to rely on portable power bank chargers.
Until now I have only had power banks that offer one charge of your phone. I have therefore been left in situations where my phone has lost its power. I don’t like not having my mobile available for use. I was therefore over the moon to be offered a Juice 3 power bank to review as it offers 3 full charges of an average smart phone. The Juice 3 is available in grey, pink blue and black, so is a colour option that most people will like. The one I received was blue. It came well packaged with its own drawstring bag. This is a godsend as building sites can be very dusty. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. This was a relief as I can find product instructions daunting. The power bank also came with a charge lead. This was the perfect size, not too long and bulky. It also felt solid but not too heavy to carry around. The style is simple but gorgeous.
The Juice website claims that this portable charger will charge an average smartphone from 0-50% in only fifty minutes. I would agree with this claim with regards charging my iPhone. I also got a full 3 charges from the power bank. The number 3 corresponds to the number of charges available from the portable charger. A Juice 1 to 5 power bank are available (offering 1 to 5 charges). I would imagine that a number 5 would be fantastic for a long weekend away at a music festival. The number 3 is perfectly suited to my needs. The number 3 and upwards power banks I think would be perfect for those people who enjoy being outdoors. A number one or two would be ideal for taking out on a night out in case your phone runs out of charge.
The device has a 10000mAh/37Wh battery with 2.4Amp max output to charge mobiles or tablet devices. You can even charge 2 devices at once as the device has USB-A and USB-C ports. The device is really well made. I can see it lasting for a good length of time. The box the device came in is simple but stylish and could be reused to store personal possessions.
It has made a massive difference to my life and the task of ensuring I have a charged mobile phone much easier. The price makes it both affordable and excellent value for money too.
Our reviewer team have been fortunate enough to review a few items from Juice and they have all been fantastic. I have my eye on this Juice Boombar Bluetooth Speaker (RRP: £29.99) and this Juice Deck Turntable (RRP: £49.99). I think that these items would look fantastic in my lounge. Juice really seem to know their stuff when it comes to providing quality products with excellent functionality and that cool look. I would recommend Juice.
This Juice 3 Power Bank would make a fantastic Valentine’s Day Gift idea for a loved one that can’t do without their phone. If you know someone who loves their tech but also appreciates practical gifts then Juice products could be perfect for them.
I have no hesitation in rating this item 5 stars.
Rating: 5/5
