Google Pixel 3 vs Samsung Galaxy S9 vs LG G7 ThinQ - Phone specs comparison
In fact, bar the LCD screen, the spec is very similar. Also here you’ll find two USB outputs, one at 10.5W and the other 5W, and both Micro-USB and Lightning inputs rated at 10W. There’s no Quick Charge or passthrough charging support. (Though we could charge both our phone and the bank at the same time this worked only when we plugged in the phone first, suggesting it perhaps wasn’t meant to.) This bank is plastic, but the baby blue and pink colour options are interesting – so many power banks adopt the same boring black design. Sadly our review sample is white!
12. Romoss Ace 20 Power Bank Another dual-input power bank is the A20 from Romoss. This 20,000mAh power bank has both Micro-USB and Lightning inputs, which makes it easier for iPhone users to recharge the bank without having to also carry around a Micro-USB cable. The A20 was supplied to us from GearBest, a Chinese importer, where it costs £23.16/$29.26. That’s actually a very good price for a power bank of this capacity, but we tend to refrain from reviewing power banks available only in China – they are so easily and cheaply available in the UK that it makes little sense to import them.

Available in rose gold or grey, despite its low price the A20 has a fancy aluminium coating that makes it feel pretty cool. But save for the design, Lightning input and capacity (of which around 13,300mAh should be available to your devices), there’s nothing particularly exciting about this power bank. There’s no support for passthrough charging, which is on our list of must-haves for high-capacity power banks (especially given this one will take 13 hours to charge over the 10.5W input), and neither is it particularly fast.
Though one of the two outputs is rated at 10.5W, the second is just 5W, and if you use both together that 10.5W is shared between the two resulting on slow charging from both. Still, if needs must, this bank could potentially charge your iPhone seven times. Just be aware that with big capacity comes big weight: the A20 weighs a very noticeable 491g. 13. Flux Card We’ve included the Flux Card power bank in this round-up because it’s a great example of an all-in-one power bank, though it’s not the easiest device to get hold of in the UK. Right now it’s on offer at $29.95 (£23.45) on the company’s website (down from $39.95/£31.28), but if you want one in the UK you should also factor in $9.50 (£7.44) shipping and the fact you may also have to pay Customs charges. When we say ‘all-in-one’ power bank we mean one that includes all the necessary cables for charging your device, resulting in a much sleeker overall package.

Typically such devices make you choose Micro-USB or Lightning, but this power bank supports both. All that’s missing is USB-C. It’s slim, portable and, since we wrote our original Flux Card review the company has updated its device, now clad in durable black or white aluminium rather than plastic, and still incredibly thin at 7.8mm. It weighs a tiny 88g. It has a 4,000mAh capacity, which is going to be good enough for a full charge for any phone, and it’s reasonably speedy with a 7.5W input and 10.5W output. Passthrough charging is supported, which is a nice extra. In common with nearly every power bank you’ll find today Flux offers four LEDs to show how much power remains, and boasts smart technology to recognise your device and deliver an optimum charge.
