Anker Power Bank (20K, 87W, Built-In USB-C Cable)

Can’t live with it

I work overnight and go to school full-time so there’s definitely comes in clutch when I miss a charge. I got the blue color and it’s so cute.

Good but Overrated for Laptop Charging

Not a lot to say about this unit. I do appreciate the numeric charge display instead of a simple row of illuminated lights—it’s much more precise and easier to read at a glance. The unit itself charges quickly as advertised, and the built-in USB-C cable is a nice convenience. However, when used to charge my 2020 MacBook Pro (13”), the performance didn’t quite meet expectations. In my real-world test, the power bank dropped 14% to raise the MacBook from 82% to 92% (+10%), suggesting that roughly 50% of the power bank would provide around a 35% laptop recharge when the computer is actively in use. Obviously, results will vary depending on workload and background power draw, but that’s still lower than I had hoped. All things considered, it’s a decently priced and well-built backup option for those moments when an outlet isn’t available. Just know that its advertised laptop-charging power may feel somewhat overstated in everyday use.

Love this thing its a beast
