INIU Power Bank, 25000mAh 100W High Capacity USB C Laptop & Phone Portable Charger, Fast Charging Flight Cruise Ship Travel Essential Mini Battery Pack for College Students Travelers Boys Girls, Red

Stressing out about a dead laptop or dead phone has ruined my day more than I care to admit. For college students, travelers, or anybody who wants the most from a power bank, this will definitely help prevent stress induced hair loss. I’ve had my phone die while stranded away from home, and I’ve had my laptop die mid-class. I chose to say bye to those cruel moments.I chose INIU because it’s definitely the best price to capacity/output while still being trustworthy. I got the classic size 25000 mAh model at 100W and this thing is perfect for my uses. For $10 more you can get a more compact model but this was still lighter than my Lenovo Laptop 170W slim charger while charging other things too. Since the classic size was on sale I went for the cheaper option. Great for gaming laptops if that’s your need. I get a few more hours out of mine, definitely makes the difference and eases the blow from not choosing a laptop that can't game.Which, this is definitely more for users of laptops or any other power hungry devices. Most other things won’t support 100W charging so your money is better spent on cheaper models. 20k mAh at 65W is probably the highest I’d go if I didn’t have a laptop.The 100W output is the main attraction here, my gaming laptop dies quickly but has a USB-C lightning port. This gives it the perfect power delivery in between it’s 60W minimum and 140W maximum, if you want the fastest charging then obviously buy the 27k mAh at 140W output. Yes the usb-c to usb-c cable they include supports 100W charging! No need to buy another unless you want a longer or more quality cable.The power bank itself charges admirably fast. I only have a 30W charger in hand for now but even at half of its 65W charging maximum, it’s pretty quick. I usually give myself an hour in the morning to get ready and leave, even if this was at 0% it’ll charge fast enough to get me through the day.Durability wise this thing is solid. I don’t LOVE the soft touch plastic used, it picks up finger prints and any oil on your hands like nobodies business, but it definitely feels more solid than your run of the mill hard plastic. The thing you want to avoid in a power bank are any cracks or punctures. A hard fall at a bad angle would crack cheaper plastic but not this tough shell. Metal gets hot and doesn’t absorb as much of the impact. So this was definitely the best choice. Maybe it could have a different finish but I usually charge it out of it's little pouch regardless. The only reason to take it out would be for the phone holder.All in all this is an invaluable purchase. The second I opened this and plugged it into my computer I felt my stress wash away. In 2025 a good power bank is almost necessary. Unless you upgrade phones every other year it’s probably not lasting an entire day of use. I also don’t have to look around the room for outlets to charge my laptop at during class. Great purchase

One-Year ReviewStill Worth Every PennyJust wanted to give a quick review after using this thing for almost a year. I picked it up back in August, and honestly, it’s been amazing. For the price, it’s worth every penny and then some.Performance: At the start, I was getting about 7–8 full charges on phones like the iPhone XR, iPhone 12, and iPhone 12 Pro. And keep in mind, I use my phone a lot such as FaceTime, YouTube, movies, all that stuff that eats battery. I always used the fast-charging port too, and it did a great job getting things charged up quick.Depending on if I was using the phone while it charged or not, it usually took around 20–35 minutes if I was using it, or 15–25 minutes if I left it alone on Low Power Mode. Either way, pretty fast.Cons: Now, a few things to keep in mind.One small annoyance is that you have to turn the device on first before plugging your phone in. It won’t start charging if you do it the other way around. Would’ve been nice if it just kicked in automatically.Another thing is the port wear over time. It has two USB-C ports and a USB-A, so plenty of options, but after almost a year of regular use, the connection isn’t as solid as it used to be. I’ve never dropped it or yanked on the cables or anything, so I think it’s just normal wear from always having to plug and unplug to start a charge.Over time, the charge doesn’t last as long and the battery drains faster than it used to. After nearly a year of heavy use, I’m probably due for a new one soon but again, for the price, I can’t complain.Sometimes, after charging a device or mid-charge, it randomly shuts off even when there’s still plenty of battery left. Not super common, but it’s happened enough to notice.Also, it really only handles charging one thing at a time. If you plug in two devices, one just stops charging.Pros: Now for the good stuff, which is most of it.It charges your phone fast. Like, way faster than some wall chargers I’ve used. And if you use a solid fast-charging cable with it (which I recommend), it really shows. The difference is noticeable.Yeah, it’s a little bulky but that’s to be expected. It fits fine in a hoodie or jacket pocket. The design is smooth, and the rounded corners are nice and won’t poke you or anything.One of my favorite features is the built-in stand at the bottom. You can pull it out and rest your phone on it while it’s charging, which is super handy if you’re watching something or listening to music. I’ve even used it on a flight and it was perfect. And yes, you can bring it on planes with no issue.Even when the power bank heats up during charging, you don’t feel any of that heat on your phone, which is a nice touch.Charging the power bank itself takes a few hours, so I usually just leave it overnight. But honestly, with how many times it charges your devices, it’s not a big deal at all.The battery on this thing lasts a long time. Like, so long that I started carrying it with me everywhere just in case. You get hooked on having that much backup power.Final Thoughts: All in all, even if you only get a year of solid use out of it, it’s absolutely worth it. For the price, it’s a no-brainer. If you ever see it on sale grab it. You won’t regret it.

durability: i never dropped it but i suspect that it could survive a fall from about 6ft but due to its weight might break the screen or damage the unitsize: as advertised. about the size of a couple of phones stacked on top of each other. can fit in an average pocket but barelybattery life: good. forgot about it for a while and stayed at 100% can charge my phone about 4-5 timesbuild quality: extremely good. it feels premium especially for the pricecharging speed: as fast as any wall outlet and brick i'v used
