2025 PD Fast Charging Portable Power Bank Buying Guide
Fast charging Portable Power Banks allow people to quickly recharge their electronic devices during short periods of commuting or traveling. These power banks can be used to charge commonly used devices such as phones and tablets, and some models can even charge laptops or support wireless charging. However, with so many different products on the market, from well-known tech brands like Xiaomi and Samsung to lesser-known budget brands, and with various charging specifications and device compatibility, it can be difficult to choose the right power bank.
This article will introduce the features of fast charging specifications such as PowerIQ and USB PD, and provide tips on what to consider when purchasing a power bank. We hope that after reading this article, you will be able to select a power bank that meets your needs.
Things to know before buying a fast charging portable power bank
Have you ever become frustrated when using a power bank to charge your phone while on-the-go that didn't charge your device quickly enough? Fast charging portable power banks can effectively solve this problem, whether you need to charge your device just enough to keep it running for a little longer, or quickly charge it to full capacity. However, due to the variety of products on the market, it is important to choose a power bank that fits your device's specific charging needs. Alternatively, if you want to use your power bank to charge multiple devices, you will need to choose a product that supports multiple fast charging specifications. The following sections will introduce some of the most representative fast charging specifications, the devices they correspond to, their output power, performance, and things to note when purchasing a power bank.
Fast charging portable power bank buying guide
To help you choose the most suitable product, here are some tips to consider when purchasing a fast charging portable power bank.
Choose your power bank based on charging technology and specification.
① "Quick Charge" for Android devices
Quick Charge (QC) is a fast charging specification for Android devices that increases the voltage of USB charging to improve charging speed. QC is divided into seven specifications, with 2.0 and 3.0 being the most common, and 4 and 4+ being used in Xiaomi smartphones and some Japanese brands. For example, QC 2.0 can charge up to 18W, which is 1.8 times the capacity of a regular power bank. Therefore, if you want to buy a power bank for your Android device, we recommend choosing a product that supports QC 3.0. QC 4 and 4+ are interchangeable with USB PD, which will be discussed in more detail later, but not all USB PD products support QC 4 and 4+.
② "PowerIQ" for laptops
If you need to charge multiple electronic devices such as iOS devices, tablets, and laptops, you can choose a power bank that supports the "PowerIQ" specification. PowerIQ was developed by Anker and can recognize different USB connectors and provide the appropriate current to charge different devices. There are currently two versions, 1.0 and 2.0, with version 2.0 being faster and supporting the latest Android smartphones and tablets, but not iPhone. If you use an iPhone, we recommend choosing version 1.0. PowerIQ does not use voltage boosting to achieve fast charging, so it cannot be used with other transformer and charger specifications.
③ "VoltageBoost" without selecting charging cables
Even if the power bank itself has fast charging capabilities, charging speed may still be slowed down by the resistance of the charging cable. For this reason, it is usually recommended to choose high-quality cables to solve this issue. However, if you don't want to incur additional costs, you can also choose products that support the "VoltageBoost" specification. This specification, also developed by Anker, adjusts the resistance of any type of charging cable to ensure a stable charging experience. However, VoltageBoost is mostly included in PowerIQ products and is rarely included in other fast charging products by other brands, so it is important to choose high-quality cables to ensure optimal efficiency when using a fast charging portable power bank that is not from Anker.
2. Pay attention to cable and device compatibility when using "USB PD"
SB PD is a universal fast charging specification with a theoretical maximum output of 100W, which is 20 times that of a regular 5W charger. Some of the products currently on the market have a maximum output of 23.4W, which is suitable for charging high-power devices such as computers and tablets. It is worth noting that iPhone 8 and later models can use USB PD fast charging as long as a USB-C to Lightning cable is used. When using a fast charging portable power bank with the USB PD specification, both the charging device and the cable need to support this specification, but there are currently not many products on the market that support this specification, so this should be taken into consideration when selecting a product. In addition, as mentioned before, USB PD is interchangeable with QC4, QC4+, because the latter uses "Programmable Power Supply (PPS)" technology from USB PD, but not all devices that support USB PD can support both QC4 and QC4+ specifications.
3. Understand the unique features of each brand and select the one that meets your needs
Many brands produce fast charging portable power banks, and here are some of the most famous brands and their respective product features.
