Got the 621 and it kind of sucks. Constantly disconnects and slow charging. Wonder if this is just the product

Anker was bought a while back, and now most of their products are the same generic internals to everything else on the market. Sadly it's just e-commerce roulette to see if you get the dud chipset or if you're the lucky winner of a mostly functional product.

(the biggest offender here are USB hubs. Literally every single on on amazon (that isn't for a server rack) has exactly the same components just with a slightly different pcb layout)

edit: Here's a wonderful article wherein a nerd slowly loses their mind over this issue

I had no idea they were bought. That makes sense why their quality has been declining. I have been moving away from their stuff in the last few years.
