This isn’t my first Power Bank from Anker with this configuration that has the ability to plug directly into a wall outlet and 10,000mAh capacity. It is worth every penny for its built quality, compact size, and how quickly it charges devices and itself.

Biggest feature I was looking for was the fact in plugs directly into a wall outlet. Don’t underestimate how absolutely important this is. Most power banks require to be charged by a cable and wall charger separately into a specific port on the power bank. Having this built in reduces clutter and also allows you to take it with you without the fear of forgetting the cables and charger to charge the unit itself. Trust me, this is a huge Plus.

People mention that the bank output 65W only when plugged in and 30W when not, as if that is a bad thing. This bank will replace any need to use a separate wall charger and can simply go with you on the go. It charges faster than any charger I have used portably and charges wickedly faster when plugged into a wall outlet and charging your device at the same time. The power bank itself takes about 50 minutes to fully charger, and that’s way faster thank other power banks I have tried.

The device has 2 USB-C ports with one of them being the default superior one. The better of the two allowed you to use a USB-C to USB-C connection to charge itself; such as, plugging it into a MacBook USB-C port to charge its power bank. I find this overkill but a great feature to have in case. It also has a USB-A port for any of your older devices that is up to 22.5W; which is awesome!

Battery capacity is on the lower side of 10,000mAh but at the speed it can charge itself isn’t really a problem. The iPhone 15 Pro Max is reported to have a 4,852mAh battery which gives you an idea of how many times it can charge your device. Don’t forget that some of that charge is lost in the charge transfer.

Where this device shines is the multitude of ways you might use it. Here are some examples. Beside just using it on the go as a battery don’t forget it is pushing 65W when using it when it is plugged in itself. How about when there is no available close outlet; you can plug it in and it charges itself fast then you can use it portably. What if you are playing you PS5 and your controller is dying; well then, you can plug your controller into it portably and charge your controller as you continue to play your PS5. Charge your Nintendo Switch on the go, because Anker’s power banks were the first to be recommended and made into official products by Nintendo themselves. Let’s not forget you can charge up to 3 devices at the same time portably or plugged in as well.

There is a feature that is mentioned but most people don’t see that is briefly mentioned in the super simplistic manual. A bunch of power banks automatically charge devices when they are plugged in, but this requires that the device has a minimum voltage that the power bank can recognize. Basically some low powered devices have a problem letting the power bank realize it is even plugged in; making the power bank automatically turn off. If you double press the power indicator button a green light will turn on. This will make the power bank push out a charge that will not be interrupted because it can’t detect a low powered plugged in device.

Added note similar to auto-off, if you use a wireless charger like a MagSafe or Apple Watch charger; then, you power bank will have a constant and endless power draw even if a device isn’t connected to it.

So in the end, this device will easily replace all your chargers, is built extremely well, and is very practical at its price point. It is commonly on sale. It comes with a soft microfiber cloth carrying pouch and a USB-C to USB-C cable, which supports the power banks max power outputs. And this device takes up small space compared to equal are larger power banks; considering, you need a wall charger and cable to charge most other power banks (most have a thinner but much longer build).

This is a must buy and if you do, you’ll never go back. All battery degrade over time which you should note, but if you buy this device and it seems less than satisfactory; well then, you probably have a defective product. This is possible but just exchange it. Anker is a super reputable company. They are like the “Apple” of Chargers and Power Banks. This product has the most overall form and function that most people would need on a day to day basis. Get it!!!
