EDIT: The review below was my original review. The interesting behaviour appears to be related to using it with an Android (with metal ring for the magnet to attract to). Funny that it works well while plugged in, but this appears to be common across the industry and competing products. For now, Android apparently will have to wait. Why? I don't know.
The seller reached out and stood behind their product.
If you have an iPhone and understand this will give you a slow charge of about 60% of your battery capacity (which might not bring it up 60% if you're using a lot of power during the charge), I can recommend this.

I received this but the wireless charging is intermittent - it tends to turn off and on, unless the powerbank is itself plugged into a usb power source (then it works fine). I tried to contact the seller, but have been unable to. Amazon proposes a refund, which at face value is fine, but cumbersome and would result in simply repurchasing the same or similar product for a higher cost - because I'd lose the coupon used, and this was likely just a one-off defect. Hoping the seller will stand behind it.
Other than that, the one time it worked properly, it charged my phone slowly, but was convenient because it magnets onto the back. I estimate it could give 60% of a charge. It's a 5000 mAh battery. Some other reviews critiquing its capacity miss the point - if you want a bigger battery, get one, but it will be heavier and larger. This - if it works properly - is a convenient bridge when you're on the go and cables would be cumbersome.
