I bought one but I'm worried after reading the reviews afterwards from that page.

Really holds it's charge. Can charge my S4 Galaxy 6 times before I have to recharge it. I would recommend it for power users. For the wife it may be a little big to cart around.

Very handy product, but do be warned that it is not a tiny little battery. It's quite big and heavy, and definitely not something I would want to lug around in my handbag for emergencies.

Very very happy with this product. Its huge and heavy.

The solo 6 is a brick but not noticeable when it's in you backpack or laptop bag.

Works exactly as claimed. Adds serious weight to the backpack, though.

The power bank is too big

Very heavy. Size of a brick. Does the job. Not meant to be walking around with while charging phone in hand.

How big is that thing. Reviewers make it sound like it weighs 10kgs.:wtf:

A few grams short of a brick of butter (just less then 500grams). It is going to be too heavy for a handbag, but fine in a laptop bag or back pack. I intend using my Sailing 3 for carry around and this big boy for a weekend away etc.

The stores should still have stock.
I got mine, in my opinion it's a piece of schit, unless you are an apple fan and are locked into their eco system. It's apples way or the highway, which basically means iTunes or gtfo.

The siri is a hobbled version and not available if your iTunes store is in Sa, you have to have one of 6 intl accounts to use it, I tried it with a US account and it's rubbish.
 
Getflix is currently having a special, 40% off 1 year sub, 50% off 2 years. I'm using it so I can continue using an unblocked web, and it's working very well. Obviously Netflix will have some issues.

Best thing is it automatically updates ones IP address using a DDNS service, so it's pretty hands free once all setup correctly

How is this hardware? :p
 
I'm still using UnoTelly for free. They've been giving me a month free, every month for the past 6 months.

It's not that bad. Plex works well and the interface looks better than the Roku. I'll sideload Kodi when I have some time.
That's all that I need.
