The best power banks with wireless charging

The affordable Powerbank-battery Canyon PB-1001 combines in one bottle the functions of fast wired charging and wireless technology for restoring energy reserves in the battery cells of gadgets.

On the shelves of electronics stores, the model is presented in two color variations to choose from: black or white. On top of the device body, you can see a circle with lightning - this is a zone for wireless charging with a power of up to 10 W. It can accommodate both compatible smartphones and mobile accessories such as a case with TWS headphones.

The power bank's wired connections consist of two USB ports: one full-size 20 W (using Quick Charge 3.0 technology) and one type C connector with the same output power of up to 20 W (but using the Power Delivery protocol). At the same time, the USB type C interface is used to recharge the device's internal battery. In addition, the power bank is equipped with an Apple Lightning charging connector.

Canyon PB-1001 is equipped with a 10,000 mAh Li-Pol battery. In reality, up to 6,300 mAh of energy capacity can be obtained from the device's battery. The charging power during operation of the model is determined automatically, which helps to avoid overheating of the gadget. And for convenient checking of the battery charge level, the power bank is equipped with a visual LED indicator.

The compact and lightweight Verbatim 10000 Magnetic Wireless Power Pack Powerbank fits easily into a pocket or handbag. The model supports both wired charging up to 20 W and attaches magnetically to a smartphone for wireless charging "on the go".

Wired charging with a power bank is carried out via the USB type C interface, which operates according to the Power Delivery 3.0 protocol. There is only one such connector here, and it is used both as an output and for charging the device’s own battery with a capacity of 10,000 mAh. In reality, the model provides up to 6,300 mAh of capacity to connected devices.

The portable battery is equipped with a built-in magnetic MagSafe mount and is compatible with any iPhone (12th generation and newer). The power bank comes with an additional metal ring that can be attached directly to the phone or to a case. This ensures a more tenacious magnetic hold.

The wireless charging zone in the model design provides charging power at a level of up to 15 W. The lifespan of the power bank is at least 500 charge/discharge cycles. Even with active daily use, the mobile battery is guaranteed to last more than one and a half to two years.

The Samsung EB-U2510 power bank can charge three external devices at once: two of them are powered via a wire, and the third one is powered wirelessly.

The maximum charging power from the model is supposed to be squeezed out with a single connected gadget. In this case, you can count on 25-watt charging via a wire. Two devices on charge reduce the power to 10 W for each port, and if a wireless platform is also involved, 7.5 W of power will be supplied to each device.

The Powerbank battery comes with one 20 cm long USB type C – USB type C cable. The second cord will need to be purchased separately or taken from existing wire stocks. Inside the model case is a 10,000 mAh lithium-polymer battery, of which up to 6,300 mAh of capacity is actually transferred to gadgets.

The model comes in a beige case, which is made from recycled materials. It is even UL certified for reducing carbon emissions, preserving valuable natural resources, and reusing household waste. So, purchasing a power bank will also serve as a contribution to protecting the environment.

The Sandberg Powerbank PD20W 10000 + Wireless portable battery stands out from its “classmates” with its fabric upholstery on the top panel of the case, which depicts a lightning bolt icon.

The lightning icon stands for support for wireless charging according to the Qi standard, which provides charging power of up to 15 W. All you have to do is place your smartphone on the charging plate, and the process of replenishing the energy reserves in the battery cells of the device will begin automatically. This helps to avoid fiddling with wires and minimizes wear on connectors.

The model also received two physical charging ports: one full-size USB A and one symmetrical USB type C. Moreover, the latter port is bidirectional - you can charge both external gadgets and the power bank's own battery from it. The USB type C interface provides charging power of up to 20 W (via the Power Delivery protocol). Another microUSB port is used exclusively for charging the Powerbank battery itself.

The power bank's capacity "according to the passport" is exactly 10,000 mAh. This figure is given for a battery voltage of about 3.7 V. When converted to a USB bus voltage of 5 V, the real energy capacity of the model is approximately 6,300 mAh. The device looks stylish and is inexpensive, but sometimes premature failures of the power bank occur - they are not widespread, but occur more often than usual.

Mobile accessories from the American company Belkin are not cheap. However, this is more than compensated by the high quality and reliability of the brand's products. The best proof of this is the Boost Charge Pro 10K Powerbank battery.

The model is made in the form of an oblong bar with a characteristic narrowing of the case closer to one of the narrow ends. In the more "slender" part of the case there is a zone for wireless charging of the Apple Watch smartwatch or Apple AirPods 2 headphones. The model is also compatible with other similar gadgets - this is worth checking in practice.

In wired mode, the power bank delivers charging power of up to 20 W using the well-known Power Delivery protocol. Devices are supposed to be connected using a cable via a USB type C connector. There are no other ports in the design of the model. The same interface is also used to charge the internal lithium-polymer battery of the power bank.

Belkin Boost Charge Pro 10K belongs to the category of basic capacity models - 10,000 mAh. In fact, up to 6,300 mAh of real energy capacity can be squeezed out of the Powerbank battery, which is enough for 1.5 - 2 iPhone charges and up to 20 Apple Watch charging procedures.
