With this power bank, you can charge four devices simultaneously thanks to its high-capacity battery. It also has a fast-charge feature since it is equipped with Huawei Super Charge Protocol 22.5W.

We like that it has a high battery capacity and can charge phones like the Samsung Galaxy 22 Ultra up to 12 times. This is ideal for people who often experience power shortages in their areas.
With this heavy-duty power bank, surge protection is also critical for safety. So it’s a plus that it is equipped with ten layers of protection that avoid overcharging, over-discharging, over-voltage, excessive overheating, and other potential problems.
The only concern that we experienced with this power bank is its weight.

If you’re looking for a cheaper option and want a power bank with 50,000 mAh capacity, the Rapoo S50 Pro has you covered.
It has a battery capacity that can last weeks on a single charge. According to our calculations, it can charge the iPhone 14 approximately 12 times, which is sufficient for several weeks.
The best feature for us is its five output ports. It features four USB-A ports, one of which supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0.
We like that it’s equipped with a lot of output ports and enables us to charge multiple devices simultaneously. The USB-C connector also supports 18W Power Delivery 3.0 for both input and output.
In this list, Rapoo S50 Pro is one of the most versatile. This is because this device can be charged in three different ways as it has three input ports (USB, Micro USB, and Apple Lightning).
Since it is among the lighter power banks on this list, this is also one of our best bets when it comes to traveling.
Other features that we like include an LED battery indication screen and a dual-LED flashlight. However, the flashlight is not that strong, and seems like it drains the power bank’s battery more.
Also, it only has 18W of maximum output power, which makes it lag behind other power banks on this list that have 22.5W. Nevertheless, it’s still a good choice because it’s affordable.

Because it is only equipped with four USB ports, charging other gadgets that don’t have USB cables is not possible. So we recommend that you buy compatible chargers so you won’t encounter this problem.
Also, it doesn’t have an LED indication display so you can only rely on the four lights that estimate the remaining battery left.
Overall, we still think that this power bank is a good buy, especially if you like to travel or live in an outage-prone area.

Another drawback is that it doesn’t have an LED smart display panel. This means you won’t know the precise percentage of remaining power within the power bank, which might prove inconvenient for some.
