Best Portable Chargers and Power Banks to Buy for Android in 2022
A lot of people use their Android phone for work, eating up a lot of battery power throughout the day. If you rely on something like a battery case just to keep your phone running, you’re not alone. Battery cases do have some drawbacks, however, making your device much more bulky and heavy than it needs to be — and sometimes negatively affecting your wireless reception.
That’s where a dedicated portable charger or power bank can help you. From wired options to models that can charge your phone wirelessly, there are a slew of options when it comes to keeping your Android device going.
To that end, I’ve rounded up top picks for the best portable charger for Android devices. Though they cost more, I personally like batteries that have an integrated USB-C output built into them so I don’t have to worry about carrying around a charging cable for enough power for my devices. (The models with built-in USB-C cables should also work for iPad Pro devices.) But I’ve also included some budget picks for those who don’t want to shell out as much for portable power and their charging needs.
And, while we have a separate power bank roundup for iPhones, anything here without an integrated USB-C cable will work perfectly well with an iPhone (and non-Pro iPad models), so long as you provide the Lightning cable. Read more: Best Wireless Car Chargers and Mounts for 2022
