In order to find the best power bank for your devices, consider the type of charging you will be doing. There are many different charging interfaces, including wireless portable phone chargers and USB-C power pack chargers. USB ports can charge a wide variety of devices across brands, but it is always a good idea to check compatibility before buying. For some laptops and devices, you may need an AC or DC output, which is only offered in some of the larger power bank designs.
While most power banks provide ports, some also offer built-in charging cables for commonly used devices so you won’t have to carry separate charging cables. You can also find portable phone chargers that attach directly to your smartphone to automatically extend your phone’s battery life.
When shopping for the best portable charger for you, you can filter your choices by voltage, brand compatibility and battery capacity.
