    I recently went on a trip & I needed a powerbank for my switch. I didn’t want any 3rd party ones. I just like Nintendo official brand cuz it’s trustworthy. I got the smaller one. Does what it says it doesn’t. Extra game play for BOTW. I wasn’t bored on my trip.

    This official Nintendo certified branded powercore / bank is a must for any fan of the Switch gaming console. This power bank is perfectly configured with the right output amperage to charge the Switch and not damage avSwitch, like other unofficial Nintendo or miscellaneous power banks charging products have been known to do. The Anker Powercore will give your Switch about two full charges and it will even charge the Switch as you play it. There is a larger version of the Nintendo branded approve Anker Powercore that will give your Switch about 4 complete charges. This smaller Nintendo Anker Powercore comes with a USB-C core and a nice Anker travel bag, it is perfect for extra power to continue your gaming on the go.

    This powerbank specifically made for the Nintendo switch is exactly what I needed for my trip. Small compact, and holds a charge. The price is a bit higher than other power banks. Your paying for reliable product and piece of mind when purchasing, being as products not tested by Nintendo can Possibly damage your nintendo switch console I see this as an investment. Definitely recommend if looking for extra power for longer playing time.

    Used to charge my Switch and my cell phone on a 10 day business trip and it worked beautifully. I never quite ran out of power for either device, though I wasn't playing the Switch for long periods of time. It also recharged both devices very quickly.

    Charges stuff fast, and can charge smaller electronics multiple times before this battery is drained. Works great with the switch too; bought it for a trip overseas and this was a lifesaver since we didn't have a ton of converters.

    Another fine power battery from Anker. A little pricey, but serious Switch players will love it. High quality and built solid. Comes with a nice tote bag, and USB C to USB C cable. Wish it came with a standard USB to USB C charging cable. They state that you should use the PS that came with the Switch. That kinda sucks, but luckily I have a Anker power outlet to charge it. Yeah, I could of saved a few bucks, but I like the peace of mind of accessorizing my Switch investment with quality endorsed products.

    Works just as advertised! It’s super useful due to having that second port for charging other devices like my iPhone. It charges quickly and can do both at the same time with no down side. A must have for any Switch owner

    I got this for $35. I was walking and saw these on a end cap. But Anker is always a good brand and just works. Highly recommended. And this one works flawlessly with the switch!

    It charges the Switch fast and can be used while playing in tabletop or handheld mode. Some may recommend larger version but this fits in my case so I prefer smaller.

    Good External Switch Battery

    I love this battery. Hands down, just love it. The loss of a star comes from the lack of ingenuity in the short little cord that comes with it and no charging option (recommended) other than your Power Adapter for your Switch, which is usually tucked away in the Dock. So, I purchased a Switch power adapter just for charging this battery, and a short USB-C cable with a right angle connecter. The right angle USB-C comes in when playing while this is connected. You are constantly bumping the part that hangs out the bottom of the Switch, so you are slowly but surely stressing the port until it malfunctions. Overall I like the battery. Just know that's all it is. I felt it needed a better charging solution and USB-C Switch connection. I supplied the last two myself. Your mileage may vary. I do recommend it.

    Fair power bank

    I got it for my switch, it works well and it charges your Nintendo switch very fast but only good for one and half charge, if you travel a lot I recommend to get the bigger anker power bank. The downfall is that it only comes with a usb-c to connect and charge your switch, no charger for this power bank you must use your switch charger and it charges quick. Or you will have to buy an extra switch charger as plugging it into the wall to charge can take up to 10 hrs but using the switch charger only 3 hrs from empty. I gave it 4 starts because is good enough for me since I don’t travel a lot but it gives me about 6 more hrs of playtime on the Couch.

    As with all Anker products, this battery pack is top notch! Holds a charge well when in storage. Light for a larger battery pack. Have owned multiple Anker products in the past - no issues with this one but have no concerns as their quality is very good and their customer service superb! Have been getting ten to twelve hours off of a charge.

    Great USC Power Bank

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This device is specifically designed to be used with the Nintendo Switch (Switch logo is entire back of unit). It has a USC and a USB outlet. So it can power a Switch and a phone at the same time. Only downside is that it needs to be charged through the USC port. However, the unit comes with a USC to USC wire, so it can be charged through the switch dock or with an optional USC to USB wire plugged into a USB wall outlet.

    This power cord portable charger for the switch has been perfect while on the go! Only thing is while it’s charging it’s difficult to stand the switch upright.

    we have a nintendo switch but not using this for that. Instead we are using it as a battery backup for daughters mac book pro laptop. Provides enough juice to re-charge her laptop at least twice.
