Best Power Banks with Power Delivery for Charging Laptops

The Hoco Q30A-20000 portable external battery is suitable for powering smartphones and tablets, as well as charging more power-hungry laptops. The model delivers a total charging power of up to 130 W.

The total output power consists of 100 W on one USB type C port and 30 W on the second port of the same form factor. The model is also equipped with a full-sized USB A interface, which delivers power up to 22.5 W. The power bank is endowed with support for fast charging protocols like Quick Charge 3.0, Power Delivery 3.0, Samsung Adaptive Fast Charging, and Huawei Fast Charge / SuperCharge Protocol.

The declared capacity of the power bank's lithium-polymer battery is 20000 mAh. In reality, the battery provides connected devices with up to 12600 mAh of real energy capacity. The charging power of its built-in battery reaches 60 W, and the energy recovery process is carried out through the USB type C port.

An information display on the front panel is used to monitor the power bank's charge level and battery status. The model's body is made of polycarbonate and fire-resistant ABS plastic, and it weighs 394 g. Most importantly, the Hoco power bank is appealing for its affordable price compared to other models with Power Delivery fast charging.

The BASEUS Adaman Metal Digital Display 140W 24000 power bank in an aluminum design has enough capacity and power for efficient laptop charging.

The model is fitted with two USB type C ports with an output power of up to 140 W and up to 30 W respectively, and it is complemented by a full-sized USB A connector (30 W). The maximum power is achieved thanks to 28 V voltage and 5 A current, which together give a 140 W output. Meanwhile, the charging of the power bank's built-in battery is carried out at a power of up to 100 W - the complete procedure from "zero to 100" takes about 1 hour.

The Powerbank battery supports new standards of fast charging Quick Charge 4.0 and Power Delivery 3.1. Additionally, it claims compatibility with Samsung and Huawei accelerated charging protocols. You can monitor the charging parameters for each port using the info-display. It also displays the remaining percentage of the internal battery charge.

Inside the power bank is a lithium-polymer battery with a capacity of 24000 mAh. It can effectively provide about 15100 of its energy capacity to external devices. An average Android smartphone can be fully charged from the portable battery 3 full times, while a tablet like the iPad Pro 13 2024 can be charged 2 full times. However, the model is mostly acquired for laptops - it can comfortably handle charging even high-performance models.

The debutant of 2024 from the Canyon brand is a high-class power bank. The model is made in a stylish aluminum body and supplemented with rubberized inserts for both horizontal and vertical placement. An important asset of the Canyon PB-2010 is the TFT display with a color picture. It not only shows the remaining battery charge level but also the current power input or output for each port, temperature indicators, etc.

The power bank is equipped with a lithium-polymer battery with a capacity of 27000 mAh (or 97 W*h), from which 17000 mAh can be given to various gadgets. For example, you can fully charge the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max at least 4 times. The model has 3 ports - an output USB A and a pair of bidirectional Type C. All of them can be used simultaneously, meaning you can power a smartphone, wireless earphones case, and a camera, all at once.

One of the accessory's strengths is not just pass-through charging, but its seamless operation. That is, in the event of a power outage (disappearance of light), the energy supply from the built-in battery is not interrupted, accordingly, the power bank can work as a UPS.

While the peak output power for USB A is limited to 22.5 W, both Type C support the Power Delivery 3.1 protocol and can individually deliver 140 W to the connected device, which is more than adequate for most laptops.

The power bank will also restore its capacity fairly quickly (approximately 1.5 hours from 0 to 90%). However, the peak input power does not reach the declared 140 W, likely due to protective algorithms working against overheating and other force majeure situations.

Canyon PB-2010 is a well-balanced accessory by price, quality, and functionality for backup power to mobile devices and laptops.

The portable battery from the Ugreen brand is equipped with a small informative display, two USB C and one USB A. The last one is used only for powering connected devices, whereas the pair of Type C are bidirectional. The model supports advanced fast charging protocols including PD3.1, and the first USB C can "deliver" 140 W.

Ugreen PB205's output power decreases when multiple ports are used simultaneously, but it remains at a high level. For instance, two Type C ports will provide a total of 145 W (100 + 45 W), and when all three connectors are plugged in, they'll give a solid 120 W (100 on the first USB C and 20 W on the other two ports).

The power bank is compatible with a wide range of modern smartphones, tablets, portable gaming consoles, virtual reality Oculus headsets, small devices including smartwatches and wireless earbuds. Thanks to its high throughput, it is prepared to extend the autonomy of laptops with Power Delivery support. For instance, a MacBook Pro 16 can charge from 0 to 56% in 30 minutes.

Moreover, the model supports pass-through charging, and when using two USB C, it works seamlessly, like with uninterruptible power supplies.

The 25,000 mAh lithium-ion battery allows roughly 5 complete charges of an iPhone 15 or 4 charges of a current Android smartphone, or it can almost double the autonomy of a MacBook Pro 14. Meanwhile, charging the battery itself will take less than 2 hours (peak input power 65 W).

The downside of the model is the automatic shut-off when it discharges to 10% if the output is at 100 W. Another disadvantage is that the included cable has a throughput of 100 W and cannot realize the full potential of the power bank. On the plus side, the package includes a fabric case for storing or transporting the accessory.

Ugreen PB205 is an excellent choice, especially if you plan to quickly charge 2 devices at once.

Anker 735 Prime is a high-performance Powerbank battery with three output USB ports, capable of delivering a total charging power of up to 200 W.

Both USB type C ports in the model's interface shelf are rated for an output power of 100 W each. It is permissible to use them "to the max" at the same time. Additionally, the power bank is equipped with a traditional USB A port with a maximum output power of up to 65 W. When using all three connectors simultaneously, the power parameters are distributed in the ratio of 100 W USB C1, 60 W USB C2, and 40 W USB A.

The power bank is compatible with fast charging standards Quick Charge 3.0 and Power Delivery 3.0, works correctly with portable equipment and Apple laptops, and charges any Android devices quickly and without problems. However, consider that when using the ports "at full throttle", the power bank's battery will discharge relatively fast — after all, its capacity is 74 W*h, which is enough for about 25 minutes of operation in a 200-watt output power mode.

Translated to the usual "milliamp-hours", the power bank's battery capacity is 20000 mAh. It charges at a power of up to 100 W, which takes about one and a half hours. A pleasant addition in the ANKER 735 Prime 20000 200W is the bright info-display, which shows a color picture. It displays quite detailed information regarding the remaining battery level, estimated autonomy, and voltage and current parameters for each connector.
