First impression
Unwrapping, unpacking and grabbing that manual. After quickly browsing through the manual we’ve started to put the nice gadget to the test. No bad experience so far…
Second opinion
It’s easy to use in the car or at your desk but we would not suggest using it while hicking. It has the risk of breaking of or damaging your iPhone. When plugging the Bluepack to your phone you’ll notice that it’s not made for using while moving. So putting it in your pocket while charging and walking is a no go for sure.
Charging numbers : It takes about 30min to charge your iPhone, but mind the fact that your iPhone is not fully charged yet. We roughly estimate that this would take about 45min to do so. Charging the bluepack itself takes up to 1h to fully charge. It has nice blue indicators that tell you the status of the Bluepack battery and whether it is fully charged or not. The same goes when charging the iPhone.
The Bluepack comes with a very handy retractable USB charging cable. The one thing that really pleases us is the fact that the Bluepack is compact / pocket friendly, so no bulky docking station in you pants :). The Bluepack has a very strong case build around and trust us… we even opened up a bottle of beer with it to test the hardness of the plastic. Good to know, the Bluepack passed the “opening bottle”-test :)
Conclusion
The biggest advantage of this gadget is the compact design. it fits in every pocket, and once again a msg to the ladies… it also fits in the handbag ;). Using it during a long walk or something close to that is not suggested. Overall score, well… we give it at least a 7,5 on, the scale of 10.
