The best power banks with wireless charging

This model will be a good choice for those users who are not willing to overpay for a well-known brand: USAMS Powerbank successfully combines versatility, interesting design and affordable price. This is a 10,000 mAh battery that can charge up to three gadgets at the same time. Firstly, for a wired connection there is one USB-A and one USB-C port with a maximum power of 22.5 W. Secondly, there is wireless charging for compatible devices: smartphones, smartwatches and wireless headphones. Moreover, the magnetic mount ensures reliable fixation of the device and makes it possible to charge Apple products with support for MagSafe technology and smartphones with Android. The wireless charging power reaches 15 W, which is quite high for over-the-air charging.

The power bank supports fast charging technologies such as Quick Charge 3.0, Power Delivery 3.0, Huawei Fast Charge Protocol and Xiaomi QC. True, it’s difficult to call high-speed charging - on average, in 30 minutes the smartphone’s battery is charged by approximately 50%. The battery itself is charged via a USB type C port and requires about 3.5 hours to fully recharge. The corresponding cable is included in the package.

An interesting feature of the model is its thoughtful design, which expands the capabilities of the device. On the front panel there is a round display that displays the battery charge level. The metal ring framing the display can be folded out and used as a stand to more conveniently position your smartphone during wireless charging. In addition, this ring serves as a storage place for the Apple AirTag GPS tracker.

The Powerbank is available in several colors, is small in size and weighs less than 250 g, so it does not take up much space and can accompany you during walks, trips and travel.

The Vinga brand's 10,000 mAh powerbank is one of the most affordable on the market among models with wireless charging support. The body of the model is made of plastic that is pleasant to the touch (soft touch coating) and provides traditional controls - an activation button and an LED charge level indicator.

The Vinga BTPB3510WLRO is based on a lithium-polymer battery with a real capacity of 6300 mAh. This should be enough for one charge of even the most “long-lasting” modern smartphones, like Poco C40. A low level of self-discharge and good durability are declared: after 500 cycles, the power bank should retain at least 70% of the initial capacity.

The feature of the model is a 10 W wireless charging zone. Accordingly, compatible mobile devices can be powered over the air. In addition, two wired interfaces are offered. This is USB A with Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 and Type-C with Power Delivery. Both ports deliver up to 18 W of power and significantly speed up the achievement of the coveted 100% battery capacity of the smartphone.

As befits modern power banks, the interfaces automatically recognize the connected device (including smart watches and other low-current devices) and select the optimal voltage and current parameters (in the range from 1.1 to 3 A).

By default, it is proposed to use microUSB with the supplied cable to power the external battery. In this case, the charging process will take at least 6 hours. The support for pass-through charging helps partly. USB C, which is double-sided here, will significantly speed up the “feeding” of the power bank, but you will need a separate wire and a fast network device.

Vinga BTPB3510WLRO is a good budget powerbank with an inductive charging surface.

The Xiaomi Mi Power Bank Wireless Youth Edition 10000 is tough to become a replacement for desktop wireless charging, which, moreover, you can always take with you.

The device is made in a shock-resistant plastic case with dimensions of 148x71x17 mm and a weight of about 230 g. On the front panel of its case there is a platform for wireless charging of gadgets according to the Qi standard with a maximum power of 10 W. At the same time, the power bank charges other devices through a single USB A port. The peak output power is 18 W. In a separate line, it is necessary to note the full support for Qualcomm Quick Charge 2/3 and MediaTek Pump Express technologies.

The power bank itself replenishes energy reserves in the cells of a 10,000 mAh lithium-polymer battery through the contacts of a symmetrical USB C connector. To speed up the procedure, fast 18-watt charging of the Xiaomi Mi Power Bank Wireless Youth Edition 10000 is provided. From zero to one hundred percent, the “refilling” process takes about 4 hours. The model implements multi-level protection against overcharge, short circuit, overheating, overdischarge, overvoltage and exceeding the permissible current level.

The charge level of the external battery is checked by pressing a button, which “lights up” the 4-dot indicator light. The average smartphone can be fully charged from a power bank 1.5-2 times, since the actual capacity of the model is about 6300 mAh. The distance between the gadget being charged and the charging back should be no more than 5 mm - when using a thick case, the smartphone will need to be “undressed” in advance.

A portable charger from BASEUS with a 10,000 mAh battery supports both fast wired charging and wireless charging technology for mobile devices.

The power bank uses a symmetrical USB C connector with support for the Power Delivery protocol to receive and transmit energy. You can squeeze out up to 20 W of charging power from it. The standard USB A connector produces a little less output - when using it, you should expect a peak charging power of about 18 W. This port claims to support the Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 standard.

The textured “back” of the portable battery serves as a surface for wireless charging of compatible gadgets, be it a smartphone or a case with wireless TWS headphones. Induction charging works according to the Qi standard with a power of up to 10 W. Specially for iPhones, the power bank has a built-in MagSafe magnetic mount on board.

On the glossy insert of the BASEUS Magnetic Wireless Power Bank 20W 10000 case there is a small info display showing the remaining percentage of the capacity of the built-in lithium-polymer battery. The model also features intelligent protection against electrical faults, which allows you to avoid many serious problems when using the power bank and extends its service life.

The Sandberg company offers not just a power bank, but an entire charging station for a large number of gadgets. First of all, it is designed for charging laptops, and for this the device does not necessarily have to be equipped with a USB-C port. The portable battery comes with USB-C and DC cables, as well as 12 DC-cable adapters, which are suitable for charging different laptop models. In addition, the package includes a charger, although most modern models are equipped only with cables. Thus, you don’t have to look for a suitable adapter at home or buy it separately.

Considering the ability to charge laptops and other power-hungry devices, the power bank should have a large capacity and high power. The Sandberg All-in1 Laptop Powerbank 24000 has it all. With a nominal capacity of 24,000 mAh, the battery actually offers about 15,000 mAh. This is quite enough to fully charge a smartphone battery several times and significantly extend the battery life of a laptop, tablet, etc. Users will also appreciate the number of ports: two USB-C with a power of 60 W and 27 W, one USB-A with a power of 22.5 W and DC are available -port up to 84 W. In this case, manual settings of the appropriate voltage are available: 12 V, 16.5 V, 20 V and 24 V. The selected voltage is displayed on a small display. But that's not all. At the top there is an area for wireless charging of smartphones, headphones, watches and other electronics. However, its power is much more modest - 10 W. So if you need fast charging, it is better to use a regular connector and cable.

The battery itself can be charged via USB-C or DC with a maximum power of 48W. When using the included charger, fully charging the high-capacity battery takes only 2 hours. Also among the advantages of the model is the possibility of through charging. This means that a powerbank connected to the network is capable of transferring charge to other devices.
