Best Portable Chargers and Power Banks to Buy for Android in 2024 – CNET

Infinity Lab is Samsung-owned Harman Kardon’s new accessories subsidiary and I like its InstantGo 5000 and InstantGo 10000 power banks, which come with an integrated USB-C cable for easy charging for iPhones. The larger 10,000-mAh model costs a bit more and is heavier and bulkier, but it can charge most Android smartphones twice. Though the white model is currently unavailable, the black one is in stock.” page-position linktext linkurl like dislike can-collapse=”true” can-truncate=”true” truncate-on-page-load=”true” offer techobjectinfo overridecredit=”Screenshot by David Carnoy/CNET” overridecaption=”” imagegroup=”{“uuid”:”7635fdc8-b607-4c4a-9b00-394a11fb7610″,”alt”:”The InfinityLab InstaGo 5000 has a built-in USB-C connector for Android devices”,”caption”:””,”credits”:”Screenshot by David Carnoy/CNET”,”imageData”:{“id”:”7635fdc8-b607-4c4a-9b00-394a11fb7610″,”filename”:”infinitylab-instago-5000-blue-background.png”,”path”:”https://www.cnet.com/a/img/resize/37e0f3027e7d26c91716c0d63d31a27408826f11/hub/2023/02/17/7635fdc8-b607-4c4a-9b00-394a11fb7610/infinitylab-instago-5000-blue-background.png?auto=webp&format=pjpg&height=500″,”dateCreated”:{“date”:”2023-02-17 19:43:36.000000″,”timezone”:”UTC”,”timezone_type”:3},”primeColor”:null,”hasWarning”:false},”size”:””,”float”:””,”lightbox”:false,”imageUrl”:”https://www.cnet.com/a/img/resize/37e0f3027e7d26c91716c0d63d31a27408826f11/hub/2023/02/17/7635fdc8-b607-4c4a-9b00-394a11fb7610/infinitylab-instago-5000-blue-background.png?auto=webp&format=pjpg&height=500″,”imageCaption”:””,”imageCredit”:”Screenshot by David Carnoy/CNET”,”imageAltText”:”The InfinityLab InstaGo 5000 has a built-in USB-C connector for Android devices”,”imageFilename”:”infinitylab-instago-5000-blue-background.png”,”imageWidth”:1596,”imageHeight”:898,”imageDoNotCrop”:false,”imageDoNotResize”:false,”imageWatermark”:false,”imageDateCreated”:”2023-02-17″,”imageParallax”:””,”imageCrop”:””,”imageEnlarge”:false}” usepricing=”true” ng-block=”{“id”:”985ud763dqk4j68″,”type”:”listicle”}” edition=”us” data-key=”cnetlisticle__3a32fb94-6694-4baa-b068-f3c6687329b1″ index=”1″ contenttype=”Best List – Precap” pagelayout=”Default – Article Page” tagslugs=”hv28″ isbestlistredesign=”true” imagecredit=”Screenshot by David Carnoy/CNET” class=”c-bestListProductListing”>

If you’re looking for a compact external battery pack for your Android smartphone (or iPhone), Mophie’s pocketable Power Station Mini features a 5,000-mAh internal battery and 20-watt USB-C PD fast charging.

For $20 more, you can pick up the 10,000-mAh version with dual USB-C ports — both come in black or blue colors. Also, note that Zagg, Mophie’s parent company, offers a 20% discount off your first purchase, so that model (it’s simply called the Power Station) is actually $50.

Thanks to gallium nitride technology, chargers have been getting more powerful while shrinking at the same time. The latest example of that trend is Anker’s new line of GaNPrime chargers with next-generation GaN 3 technology that the company says is even more energy-efficient. The Anker Power Bank 733, which combines a 65-watt charger with a 10,000-mAh portable battery, is part of the new GaNPrime line. It’s pretty compact for what it is and offers two fast-charging USB-C ports and one fast-charging USB-A port. You can charge up to three devices at once, but note that to get a full 65-watt charge for a laptop, you’ll have to plug in just the laptop. ” page-position linktext linkurl like dislike can-collapse=”true” can-truncate=”true” truncate-on-page-load=”true” offer=”{“id”:”834fc7f7-3447-47c8-8e41-6a2162173e67″,”label”:”Anker 733 Power Bank (GaNPrime PowerCore 65W), 2-in-1 Hybrid Charger, 10,000mAh 30W USB-C Portable Charger with 65W Wall Charger, Works for iPhone 13, Samsung, Pixel, MacBook, Dell, and More”,”slug”:”anker-733-power-bank-ganprime-powercore-65w-2-in-1-hybrid-charger-10-000mah-30w-usb-c-portable-charger-with-65w-wall”,”edition”:[“us”],”imageId”:””,”imgUrl”:””,”imageHeight”:0,”imageWidth”:0,”typeLabel”:”Product”,”objectType”:”content_product”,”icon”:””}” techobjectinfo=”{“uuid”:”834fc7f7-3447-47c8-8e41-6a2162173e67″,”slug”:”anker-733-power-bank-ganprime-powercore-65w-2-in-1-hybrid-charger-10-000mah-30w-usb-c-portable-charger-with-65w-wall”,”name”:”Anker 733 Power Bank (GaNPrime PowerCore 65W), 2-in-1 Hybrid Charger, 10,000mAh 30W USB-C Portable Charger with 65W Wall Charger, Works for iPhone 13, Samsung, Pixel, MacBook, Dell, and More”,”productType”:”PRODUCT”,”updateType”:”EZMONEY”,”mod”:1705954728477}” overridecredit=”Anker” overridecaption=”” imagegroup=”{“uuid”:”5c8f4d41-d41c-480b-8075-a776c49399a4″,”alt”:”anker-733-power-bank-ganprime-powercore-65w-yellow-background.png”,”caption”:””,”credits”:”Anker”,”imageData”:{“id”:”5c8f4d41-d41c-480b-8075-a776c49399a4″,”filename”:”anker-733-power-bank-ganprime-powercore-65w-yellow-background.png”,”path”:”https://www.cnet.com/a/img/resize/78c8a5478c7c83c09b7299a097b5b6d1024e8124/hub/2022/08/31/5c8f4d41-d41c-480b-8075-a776c49399a4/anker-733-power-bank-ganprime-powercore-65w-yellow-background.png?auto=webp&format=pjpg&height=500″,”dateCreated”:{“date”:”2022-08-31 16:41:27.000000″,”timezone”:”UTC”,”timezone_type”:3},”primeColor”:null,”hasWarning”:false},”size”:””,”float”:””,”lightbox”:false,”imageUrl”:”https://www.cnet.com/a/img/resize/78c8a5478c7c83c09b7299a097b5b6d1024e8124/hub/2022/08/31/5c8f4d41-d41c-480b-8075-a776c49399a4/anker-733-power-bank-ganprime-powercore-65w-yellow-background.png?auto=webp&format=pjpg&height=500″,”imageCaption”:””,”imageCredit”:”Anker”,”imageAltText”:”anker-733-power-bank-ganprime-powercore-65w-yellow-background.png”,”imageFilename”:”anker-733-power-bank-ganprime-powercore-65w-yellow-background.png”,”imageWidth”:1600,”imageHeight”:900,”imageDoNotCrop”:false,”imageDoNotResize”:false,”imageWatermark”:false,”imageDateCreated”:”2022-08-31″,”imageParallax”:””,”imageCrop”:””,”imageEnlarge”:false}” usepricing=”true” ng-block=”{“id”:”fmzdl71rj1r8qxu”,”type”:”cross-content-listicle”}” edition=”us” data-key=”cross_content_listicle__1660c0be-e916-459f-99e6-e01a8d87acd7″ contenttype=”Best List – Precap” pagelayout=”Default – Article Page” tagslugs=”hv28″ isbestlistredesign=”true” imagecredit=”Anker” class=”c-bestListProductListing”>

What’s cool about Anker’s 622 magnetic battery is that it’s a wireless battery that has an integrated magnetic flap that converts into a stand. You won’t get fast wireless charging from this 5,000-mAh battery (it charges at up to 7.5 watts) but it’s slim and easy to carry around. 

It charges via USB-C and if you use a USB-C to USB-C to charge your Android device (or iPhone), it will charge at a faster rate of 12 watts. That’s not as fast as a 20-watt USB-C power adapter, but it’s faster than the usual 7.5 watts.

Mophie’s magnetic power bank is similar to Anker’s but is slightly slimmer (it’s svelte for 5,000-mAh battery) and doesn’t have an integrated flap that converts into a stand. While it’s designed to adhere to the back of MagSafe-enabled iPhone or MagSafe cases, it comes with a “snap adapter” ring to stick onto the back of Android devices so they’ll be magnet-friendly. 

Wireless charging speeds appear to be limited to 7.5 watts, but if you need a faster charge, you can connect a USB-C to USB-C cable to bump the speed up to 12 watts.
