Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I'm excited about this review, because I'll compare Anker LED desk lamp against the #1 selling LED lamp also available on Amazon LAMPAT Dimmable LED Desk Lamp. Basic functions they have in common: - swivel base - USB charge port - 4 light modes and brightness setting for each mode - long lasting LED - universal 100-240v power supply But I think most of you are more interested in the difference, here are the differences (as shown in pictures, Anker on the left and Lampat on the right): 1. Anker USB port has higher output, 2A vs 1A on Lampat, so you'll be able to charge your device faster with Anker lamp. (Anker wins) 2. The power port on Anker lamp is on the side and included power adapter has a 90-degree connector, vs on the Lampat lamp power port is on the back with a straight connector from power adapter (no preference, tie) 3. Light diffuser on Anker has a matte finish, you don't see the individual LEDs, vs Lampat diffuser is matte as well but somewhat transparent, and you see each individual LED. This may has something to do with LED design difference which I'll put in #4 below. For child usage, I think the diffuser on Anker would be a better choice because both light panels sits higher than my child's head, and I find a evenly distributed light panel is easier on the eye. But if you're an adult or taller person and sitting down your eye level is above light panel, it won't make any difference, you'll just see the back side which is black plastic for both models. (Anker wins) 4. Anker chose to use an array of LEDs which go around the edge of light panel and installed horizontally facing inward. Lampat uses a few LEDs and install them vertically facing downward. (no preference, tie) 5. While both lamps and open and close as shown in picture, light panel on Anker model can rotate side ways. When lamps is positioned in front of a child, rotating the panel sideways a little bit face toward the child can greatly reduce shadow casted by the hand. (Anker wins) I bought the Lampat model and I give it a 5 star rating until I get this Anker unit, which has improvements over lampat model. I can't give it 6 stars, so it'll have to settle for 5 stars. If I'm about to buy a new one I'd choose Anker over Lampat for above mentioned advantages, on top of that I also save a few dollars per Amazon listing price.
