Even if you aren’t training to be the next best witch or wizard, or on a lengthy quest to catch ‘em all, having one of our best power banks is still a worthwhile investment. For anyone who travels lots or regularly finds themselves on the move with blinking red warning lights, one of these will ensure your devices stay fully charged – wherever you are.

Best power bank 2019 – Anker PowerCore 20100

We’ve got a range of options to choose from here, though we’d easily recommend the Anker PowerCore 20100 as the best power bank in 2019. It fits perfectly in that space between cost, capacity, quality, size and value for money that makes it the best portable charger – whether you need something for your phone, tablet or Nintendo Switch.

There’s enough capacity in the power bank to recharge a Galaxy S8 up to five times or an iPad Mini 4 twice, so you definitely have some security there. The PowerIQ and VoltageBoost technology ensure rapid recharge too! It isn’t too bulky either, though there are better options below if you’re after something better suited to portability. Still, to cover all bases, this is the best power bank in 2019.

Best power bank for portability – RAVPower Portable Charger 6700mAh

Our top pick is absolutely the best all-round choice, but if you’re after something a little less bulky you might want to check out the RAVPower Portable Charger as it’s our pick for the best portable power bank.

Weighing just 140 grams and at a size not much bigger than a credit card, it’ll easily fit into your pocket or bag. The 6700mAh capacity will give the majority of current phones at least a single full charge so it’s perfect for a short stroll playing Pokémon Go or Wizards Unite. It comes in a range of colours, too, including vibrant pink!

Best power bank for value – AUKEY Power Banks 20000mAh

Boasting a similar capacity to our top pick, this AUKEY power bank is the one to go for if you’re looking for a slighter cheaper option. It’s no less feature-rich, though, with two USB ports to support multi-charging. However, it’s a bit of a heftier and less elegant choice.

Still, you’ll want to go for this one if you’re swimming in iOS devices as you can use the same lightning cable to charge your devices and recharge the power bank, too. That’ll save you having to carry around a bunch of extra wires!

Best power bank for laptops – RAVPower 20100mAh Portable Charger

For those of you looking for an option that can be used with your laptops and other devices that need a plug socket, we’d suggest going for this RAVPower 20100mAh Portable Charger.

It’s got some serious capacity that’ll give a MacBook one entire full charge, or there’s enough juice to fill up your phones multiple times, or you can do both at the same time! However, for those extra features, you do have to pay a bit of a premium.

Best power bank features – imuto 27000mAh Portable Charger

For another power bank that’s a bit on the pricey side, but comes packed with many useful features, we’d definitely like to shout out the imuto 27000mAh Portable Charger. It’s a big and chunky piece of kit too!

There’s a considerably-sized battery in there so you’ve got loads of capacity to charge all your devices multiple times. For the likes of an iPhone 8 that 11.5 times and a Galaxy S8 that’s 7 times. With Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 support, too, that’ll get your device almost up to full in as little as 35 minutes.

Best wireless power bank – TOVAOON Wireless Portable Charger

As the future calls for more and more devices free from the annoyance of cables, we would be remiss if we didn’t point out this TOVAOON Wireless Portable Charger.

You can simply rest any Qi-enabled device atop this stylish brick with LED display and it’ll start charging away. Meanwhile, two other’s can be refuelled at the same time via the pair of USB ports on the side. That shouldn’t be an issue with its 20000mAh capacity battery, which is why we’d call it one of the best power banks in 2019.

There you have it: our collection of the best power bank in 2019. Hopefully, there’s an option we’ve highlighted that matches your exact needs. We’ll be continuing to monitor new products and prices over time to ensure this page is fully up to date with all the best power banks.
