Anker Nano Power Bank, Mini Portable Charger with Built-In Foldable USB-C Connector, 5,000mAh Battery Pack 22.5W, For iPhone 16/15, Samsung S23 Series, Note20 Series, Huawei, iPad, AirPods, and More

I bought the Anker Power Bank in November, and it’s quickly become something I carry with me every day. The size is one of the best features it’s small, lightweight, and fits easily in a pocket or small bag without adding bulk. Despite the compact design, it gives my phone a solid boost when I’m out and about and running low on battery. The build quality feels sturdy and well-made, which is what I’ve come to expect from Anker products. The connection is secure, and it starts charging immediately without any fuss. It’s especially useful for travel, busy days out, or times when I know I won’t have access to a plug.

Having already owned several power banks I really did not need more. However, I recently had little choice but to purchase more power banks due to recent changes in certain regulations for travelling through certain destinations due to incidents involving power banks inflight. To meet the criteria of several airlines/regions/countries, this power bank isn’t high capacity but holds enough juice for topping up my phone with its inbuilt usb c connection. It is quick to charge up (2hrs) and has the following countries’ certifications marked on its casing (CCC, CE, KC, BIS,NOM, PSE) as of March 2026. It was surprising how my other anker power banks lacked most of these certifications and also how hard it was to confirm these details online when purchasing power banks. In fact, these information wasn’t even available on the packaging and was only found after unsealing the box. This power bank is very compact and portable, making it a great companion for travel. It does emphasise that the phone case shouldn’t be too thick to prevent connection issues with the phone. It also has the option of connecting a separate usb c to it if the inbuilt usb c connection cable does not work with the case. It charges my phone well, and does not seem to overheat for me. I have bought 2 (apple green and blush pink) as there will not be enough juice in 1 for 2 phones while out and about for the day. Of note, a restriction on the number of power banks one can travel with are being enforced in some countries (2 per pax is seemingly the new norm for some countries). Both are well constructed. There is no strap anchor for attaching any wristlets. I have not had it for long to be able to judge it’s durability, but all my previous anker power banks are still doing their jobs well.

I like that it's small, good quality, and charges fast. But it will charge my Pixel 8 phone to only 75% max., stopping many times in between. (I think the stopping is an issue with the phone, not the power bank.) So read carefully the small print before buying: "Note: 5,000mAh is the battery capacity calculated based on a 3.6V cell element. When powering your devices, the expected capacity is 2,600mAh (5V/2.4A) due to legitimate energy loss during the charging process." I didn't read that and though it's 5,000mAh and would charge my Pixel to full, which it won't. Disappointing. Still, I decided to keep it as it'll be useful for travel. As always - excellent customer service from Anker.

Anker Nano Power Bank. Pink Not Purple., You Will Be Pleased To Learn That. I Have Raised This With Both Anker/ Amazon. Yet Still It Reads Purple. It’s Portable, Compact, Cute, Functional, Lightweight, Suitable For Arthritic Hands. I Found It, Absolutely Vital , In My Recent Stay In Hospital. The Price Is Cheap. So I Wasn’t Expecting Much. I Was Actually Amazed By It . I’m Going To Order More, For My Family. I Personally Would Say Anker, Who Are Also Known As Soundcore Are No1 In Their Products. I’ve Only Had One Rouge Item. Even Then, Their Customer Service Was Outstanding.

This is an neat and well-designed bit of kit. It is lighweight, compact and needs no cables as it plugs direct to your phone with a built-in fold-away USB-C connector. It gave my Samsung S22 a full charge from 0 to 100% in under an hour and still had some power left over. It is much smaller and lighter than my previous power bank and does everything I need it to do.

A natty little charger. Very handy to slip into your pocket and give your phone a midday boost. It won't repair a larger power bank but handy when you're a bit low and going out. Bought for skiing where the cold eats battery life quickly. All the lads were boring it to get them up to 20% etc. Can't fault it.

This is a lovely very useful power bank, I wanted a pocket sized power bank for my son to easily take in his pocket on a night out. After ordering several other makes and styles which were all were either too big or too heavy, this one was exactly what I wanted. Especially as there is no additional cable needed as it connects directly to the phone when needed and the port folds away neatly when not required. He finds it the perfect size to carry discreetly in his pocket when out and it is a robust durable design with a long battery life. It is great value for money and has given his phone a valuable battery boost on many occasions now. I highly recommend it for peace of mind!

Lovely small charger with built in lightning port. Please note that this charger can come with either a lightning or usb C port. I've got an iPhone 14 that uses a usb C but opted for a lightning port to future proof the charger for when I eventually upgrade my iPhone. So I don't use the built in lightning port to charge my phone (it does work with my AirPods). I bought a usb C to lightning adaptor wire. Still not bulky and delivers a good charge, taking me from 30% to 65% on my iPhone 14 in about 12 mins.

Very handy for charging on the go. Fast

Ich habe die Anker Nano Powerbank im November 2025 gekauft und schreibe diese Rezension bewusst erst jetzt, nach gut 6 Monaten intensiver Nutzung. Ich bin der Meinung, dass Rezensionen, die direkt nach dem Auspacken verfasst werden, kaum Aussagekraft haben. Erst der Alltagstest zeigt, was ein Akku wirklich taugt. Hier ist mein ehrliches Fazit nach einem halben Jahr: Das hat mich überzeugt: Der faltbare USB-C-Stecker ist top. Man braucht kein extra Kabel und der Klappmechanismus hält auch nach 6 Monaten noch fest und leiert nicht aus. Die Powerbank ist extrem klein und leicht. Sie verschwindet problemlos in der Hosentasche oder Handtasche und fällt kaum ins Gewicht. Ladegeschwindigkeit: Mit den 22.5W lädt sie mein Smartphone (und sogar das iPad) angenehm flott auf. Für den schnellen Energieschub zwischendurch ideal. Das sollte man vor dem Kauf wissen: Die Kapazität (5000mAh): Man muss sich bewusst sein, was 5000mAh bedeuten. Durch den natürlichen Energieverlust beim Laden reicht eine Ladung im Alltag aus, um ein modernes Smartphone 1-mal vollzuladen. Als "Lebensretter" für den Notfall perfekt, aber für ein langes Wochenende ohne Steckdose ist sie zu klein. Passform mit Hülle: Wenn man eine sehr dicke oder extrem robuste Schutzhülle (z. B. Outdoor-Cases) am Handy hat, kann es sein, dass der Stecker nicht tief genug reingeht. Bei normalen, dünneren Hüllen klappt es aber problemlos. Fazit nach 6 Monaten: Die Powerbank hält qualitativ, was Anker verspricht. Die Leistung hat nach dem halben Jahr nicht nachgelassen. Wer eine ultrakompakte Notfall-Powerbank ohne Kabelsalat sucht, macht hier absolut nichts falsch.

Praktisch, compact en zeer goede kwaliteit. Ik raad deze ten zeerste aan!

Parece que foi feito pra mim, era exatamente o que eu precisava! Um powerbank pequeno o suficiente pra caber tranquilamente no bolso da calça e com carga rápida (tanto fornecendo pro celular quanto carregando na tomada). E ainda de quebra nem precisa de cabo, que o conector já vem embutido. Simplesmente maravilhoso!

Działa świetnie, jest bardzo lekki i mały jak na powerbank. Szybko ładuje i bez problemu można korzystać z telefonu, gdy jest podłączony. Polecam!"
