While there are some exceptions in the market, most smartphones these days struggle to make it through the day and need to be charged at least once before the day ends. If you’ve been facing battery life issues with your device, it’s time to get a power bank, so that you don’t have to worry about your smartphone dying out on you in a time of need. In order to help you choose the best power banks that suits your needs, we’ve compiled a list of the 10 best power banks under 2000 INR which you can buy in India right now. Let’s jump right into the list and help you find a power bank that suits your particular use case:
1. Mi Power Bank 2i (10,000mAh) Power Bank
Probably one of the best power banks in the market today, the Mi Power Bank 2i from Xiaomi offers a substantial 10,000mAh lithium-polymer battery in a durable aluminum alloy body and that too at a very affordable price. The Mi Power Bank 2i has two full-sized USB charging ports, both of which feature fast charging support. Depending on your device, the power bank can automatically adjust the output and is compatible with 5V/2.4A, 9V/2A, and 12V/1.5A modes. The Mi Power Bank can also adjust power output up to 18W to deliver fast and efficient charging for each connected device.
2. Mi Power Bank 2i (20,000mAh) Power Bank
If you’ve got a slightly bigger budget or are looking for a power bank with a larger battery capacity, then Xiaomi also offers the Mi Power Bank 2i with a massive 20,000mAh battery. Much like the other Mi Power Bank 2i, the larger variant has two full-sized USB ports which feature Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 3.0 support (while charging one device) and 5.1V/3.6A fast charging (while charging two devices simultaneously). The Mi Power Bank 2i (20,000mAh) also includes the same nine layers of circuit protection found on the smaller variant, to ensure efficient charging and prevent any short circuits.
Pebble PICO is one of my favorite affordable fast-charging power banks available to buy. Firstly, the Pebble PICO looks quite unique and in a good way. The power bank is pretty small and can easily fit in the palm of your hands. It has a capacity of about 10000 mAh and can charge two smartphones simultaneously. That said, only one of these ports support fast charging at 5V and 2.1A while the other one delivers normal charging speed with 5V and 1A output.
The Lenovo PA13000 is another great option if you’re looking for a larger battery capacity, but don’t quite have the budget for the Mi Power Bank 2i (20,000mAh). As the name suggests, the power bank comes with a 13,000mAh lithium-ion battery with two full-sized USB ports, both of which support 5V/2.1A output for moderately fast charging. The battery is encased in a matte plastic exterior which has an LED indicator on the face to show the remaining charge, along with a power button and micro-USB charging port on the side.
Lenovo claims that the power bank is capable of retaining charge for a long time, which means that even if you leave it unattended for a couple of days it’ll still have some juice left if you want to use it in an emergency. the Lenovo PA13000 has an intelligent power control chip which supports high conversion rate and prevents any overheating or short circuits while you’re charging the power bank. Also, the power bank turns off the LED indicator a few seconds after you start charging your device, which is handy battery saving measure implemented by Lenovo. For the price, the Lenovo PA13000 is a compelling choice and it even comes with a 1 year warranty, which is a leg up over Xiaomi’s six month warranty on its power banks.
The LCARE QC 3.0 power bank is a great option for buyers who’re looking for a dedicated USB Type-C port on their power banks. As the name suggests, the power bank features a 10,000mAh lithium-polymer battery which is sufficient enough to charge any smartphone at least twice. The power bank features a single full-sized USB port along with a USB Type-C port, both of which adhere to the Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 standard for fast charging. The battery is encased in a rather slim matte plastic case, with an LED indicator on the fast and the two USB out and one micro-USB in ports on the top.
If you’re looking for a power bank that offers a great battery, fast charging support and a USB Type-C port in a stylish package, then the iVOOMi Titan iV is best for you. The power bank comes with a 15,000mAh lithium-polymer battery and features a total of three USB ports for charging, including two full-sized USB ports and one USB Type-C port. All the output ports are compatible with 5V/2A, 9V/2A and 12V/1.5A charging, so you wouldn’t have to worry about your devices taking ages to charge. The micro-USB input port also support 5V/2.1A charging which will allow you to charge the power bank in just 5 hours and 20 minutes.
7. Acid Eye AE-20 (20,000mAh) Power Bank
If you’re looking for a power bank which has a bit more to offer than the usual crop, then you can opt for the Acid Eye AE-20. The power bank comes with a 20,000mAh lithium-ion battery with three full-sized USB ports for charging, but that’s not what makes it special. Unlike any other power bank on this list, the Acid Eye AE-20 features a handy little display which displays the battery percentage which eliminates all the guess work that you have to put in with other power banks. Not only does the display show the remaining battery percentage, it also clearly highlights the input/output voltage and the current flowing through each USB port.
The Syska Power Pro 200 is also a great choice if you’re looking for a power bank with a high capacity battery in a compact minimal design. The power bank features a 20,000mAh lithium-polymer battery along with two full-sized USB ports. While the first port supports a maximum of 5V/2.1A output, the second port isn’t as impressive and supports 5V/1A output. What’s really great about this power bank though is the fact that its battery has been certified by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), so you wouldn’t have to worry about it blowing up due to overheating.
