Anker’s Zolo power bank is easily one of my favorites, mainly because it has a built-in USB-C cable that doubles as a carrying strap. Now Amazon is selling the upgraded version with TWO built-in cables on sale for just $38, down from its original $50 price.
While the fact that it has two USB-C cables for convenient double charging while on the go is a game-changer, there are other things you’ll love about this battery pack. One of those great features is its 20,000mAh capacity, which is enough to recharge a modern phone about four times. And with the additional USB-C and USB-A ports, you can actually charge up to four devices at once with this thing.
The Anker Zolo delivers 45W of high-speed charging, which is great for single-port use but slows down a lot when you’re using three or four ports simultaneously. Still, if you’re only using it with the built-in cables, you’ll be getting great performance out of it. It’s good for the occasional multi-device charge-up—if you’re constantly rejuicing three or four devices at a time, you might want one that’s bigger and faster.
I’ve taken my own Zolo to quite a few concerts and love its high capacity, slim profile, and easy-carry weight. The security of the cable-turned-carrying-strap is great for peace of mind, too. If you need an affordable hassle-free power bank, this one’s the one to get.
