Advice: How to choose to buy the power bank for the iPhone most suitable and safest

For iPhone users , the power bank is an accessory that is often of interest - included. So, see the article to know how to buy the safest and most suitable power bank for iPhone!

1. Take care of the capacity first

When choosing to buy a power bank, the first factor that you need to consider is the battery capacity of the product. Normally, the power bank's battery capacity should be about 2 times higher than the phone's battery capacity.

For example, if you use an iPhone Xs Max with a 3,170 mAh battery then you should buy a power bank at 7,500 mAh. This means the power bank will charge your phone about 1-1.5 times.

It is known that the current power bank's performance (in 2020) is only about 65% , for example, the power bank with a 7,500 mAh battery capacity, in fact it can only charge about 4,875 mAh for other machines, not to mention to other losses such as power bank self-discharge when you do not use for a long time or loss during charging due to temperature.

In short, buy the power bank with the highest capacity you can, but don't forget the weight of the power bank!

2. Is the power bank's charging port Lighting Lighting?

You should prioritize choosing the power bank with the Lightning charging port to be able to share the charging cable with the iPhone, no need to buy a Micro-USB cable to recharge the power bank.

Or you can see if the products you plan to buy are included with the Micro-USB charging cable. If so, you don't need to consider this factor anymore!

3. Does your iPhone support fast charging?

For those of you using the iPhone 8 , iPhone 8 Plus or newer iPhone models , your iPhone has fast charging support . To exploit the maximum charging performance, you should choose to buy a power bank that supports fast charging with USB Power Delivery (USB-PD) technology, with an output of 18W (the output on the charger is 9V - OUTPUT is 9V - 2A) to 96 W .

For example, you can refer to the Xiaomi Type C 3 Pro 20,000mAh Polymer Backup Battery Product VXN4254GL Black .

However, if you do not have the need for fast charging and do not want to spend too much money to buy a power bank, or the iPhone you are using does not have fast charging feature, you just need to buy power bank models with 5V output. - 2 / 2.4A is fine.

4. Choosing a reputable brand

Choosing reputable brands when buying power banks gives you peace of mind about product quality, as well as minimizes risks of damage and fire accidents while charging.

You absolutely should not buy products floating on the flea market or on the internet because they are often of unknown origin, are imitated by big brands, which can endanger yourself and the equipment when used.
