I like RavPower and I have a few of their products (stuff that Anker doesn’t make) . This is portable power and this is something Anker does well at doing. If this technology takes off and I imagine with more wireless charging phones coming on the market I bet Anker will have something similar coming out maybe not now but in the ear future.

Not quite, but close. The problem with wireless powerbanks is that they all slow charge your phone, you will reap more benefit from using the built in USB ports or like the one I have the USB c port

That makes sense for sure. As much as I love my wireless chargers in general, I still get a quicker charge out of a wall quick charger. I have them setup for quick charge, but it is still relatively slower.

Well for me the benefit is not having to carry a cable, now something I wish they offer is a strap to secure the phone. Since sometimes when you are have the need to charge it usually is when you are in the move. @AnkerOfficial make a note “Strap to secure phone in place while charging” :joy:

They just need to bring back their magnetic cables and batterypack. That I would buy in a heartbeat

Wireless charging loses power and doesn’t charge your phone fast enough for some people which is why I prefer usb c

I would be in favor of holding Anker’s feet to the fire and getting a product like this to market to compete if these wireless charging banks weren’t so incredibly inefficient.

I am happy to wait for Anker to make one of these when we can have efficient high watt charging. None of this sub 5watt nonsense.

I still like fast charging compared to wireless charging, and yes you need to carry cables all the time with you.
Anker’s 4 inch cables are real good for simplicity.

Added convenience of plopping it down on the charger doesn’t offset the annoyance of slow charging and general inefficiency. It would take significantly more juice to charge my phone to full wirelessly than wired. And this is coming from someone who has Qi charging pads/stands in everyone room in my house.

In my opinion, for powerbanks it makes more sense more USB-C than wireless charing. Usually, you want to charge your phone while traveling (or else you would use a wall charger). It’s easier to charge it in your backpack, or less usuall places, rather than having to lay it on the table and wait. For this, I prefer fast charging with USB-C than wireless.
