USB C Power Bank Portable Charger Omars 10000mAh 18W PD Power Pack External Battery Pack Battery Bank Compatible iPhone Xs/XR/XS Max/X / 8/8 Plus, iPad, Galaxy S9 / Note 9, Huawei Mate 20 Pro

I purchased this wallet friendly battery pack expecting a product that is sub-par to the more recognized competition out there such as Anker or Energizer. However, upon receiving, examining, and testing this battery, I have arrived at the conclusion that not only is this one of the most well-built portable battery out there, it is likely at the time of writing, the single very best USB-C battery anyone can possibly purchase.I bought this unit to give away to someone who needed it, but it looks like I will be keeping this as my main device and giving away my current Anker unit instead.At first, I thought the LED screen is gimmicky and unnecessary, but I quickly realized the value of having the I/O direction of the battery and the "FAST" charging indicator due to the complexity of USB-C integrations across the board. Having that digital display can really be a lifesaver when it comes to being able to tell exactly what the battery is doing. The percentage display is just icing on the top.So far, I have tested the device with an iPhone X (USB-C to Lightning), iPhone XR (USB-C to Lightning), iPad Pro 10.5 (USB-C to Lightning), Macbook Pro 15 (USB-C to USB-C), Sony A7 III Camera (USB-C to USB-C), GoPro Hero 7 Black (USB-C to USB-C) and a Nintendo Switch (USB-C to USB-C). Of all of them, the battery operated flawlessly with all of them, providing all 18W of energy available through the USB-C port when requested by the device. When connected to Apple products, the battery may or may not provide fast charging depending on if the Apple device thinks it would be appropriate to accept fast charge. Notably, the iPhone XR refuses to be fast charged until the battery drops to around 50%.All in all, this battery is a fantastically built device, and is well worth the asking price. I would not hesitate to make this purchase again over an Anker battery.Images, from left to right:1. Battery by itself2. Battery Powering Switch via USB-C to C3.

We've had quite a few of these Omar's Powerbanks (including previous models). This one in particular truly charges "Fast". However, if you're using a second-rate cable, it will charge at a slower speed. While it's no longer available for purchase, I wanted to write this note as a way to thank the manufacturer for making an outstanding product. It's currently 2021 and we bought these in 2019 well before COVID-19. I have not been disappointed with any of the Omar's Products we've bought via Amazon. Some of complained the screen is bright. It is true. However, it isn't anything that cannot be fixed with just a strip of painter's tape or gaffer tape. Problems can be solved so easily and quickly. There is really no need to whine about simple fixes. If these are ever available again in the future, I would not hesitate to buy another. I've included a photo. If you use a "Capable" Cable, the power bank can output enough power to fast-charge your device at a higher current as noted by the "Fast" LED. Wishing you all the best.

I have purchased dozens of these battery banks and have returned, given away, etc because almost every one of them does not work as advertised for one reason or another.I was able to work with the manufacturer and update this review from 1 star to 4 stars. It is currently the #1 power bank I recommend. I have since referred this to several of my friends and stand behind its quality.This product was confusing at first regarding FAST mode (18w and/or USB-PD) as advertised on their description page, but I understand it fully now. The power bank charged my XS Max from 0% to 82% in 1 hour at 5V 2.0A mode (on the display). The display never showed FAST mode with my iPhone XS Max & official Apple USB-C to Lightning cable. When I plug in my 2018 iPad Pro to the battery bank, it says FAST as expected and noted. There is much confusion regarding official Apple cables. When charging the power bank from an official Apple power adapter(s), 29w - 85w, it will not charge in USB-PD (FAST) mode, BUT when I plug the bank into any other generic USB-PD power adapter, it switches to FAST mode and charges the power bank at the full 18w super rapid method.EDIT: The manufacturer agreed and followed through to change their description accordingly in regards to how their power bank works with FAST/18w/USB-PD mode. These are all new and interchangeably confusing terms, and there are no battery banks out there that help to facilitate this much-needed education. This power bank is one of the first to do so.I want to thank this manufacturer for working with me to help to start organizing and standardizing this industry. I do not want anyone else out there to have to buy dozens to hundreds of battery banks as I have done.I highly recommend this product. Please contact me with any other questions/concerns.

This is a good battery pack. I especially appreciate the USB micro/C cable that allows me to charge multiple types of devices with just the one cable. The biggest problem I found is that I could not charge my phone with this charger while the charger itself was being charged. That may not be a deal breaker for many, but since I took this traveling and the family had many devices to charge overnight and limited outlets, this was a limitation. It also was not able to fast-charge my Pixel 3. I am not sure if I just missed this, but I thought it was going to be able to fast charge my phone.Otherwise, I like the percent indicator telling you how much charge is left and think this is a decent product.
