Anker PowerCore 10000 PD Redux
Ten thousand milliamp-hours of pocket power with USB-C Power Delivery — the Anker PowerCore 10000 PD Redux is the power bank we pack first.
Our Verdict
Slim, light and fast: 18W USB-C PD output charges a modern phone quickly, and the 10000mAh cell adds roughly two full phone charges. An 18-month warranty backs it.
What We Like
- 18W USB-C Power Delivery fast charging
- Two full phone charges per pack
- Slim and pocketable
- 18-month Anker warranty

Who Is This For?
Travelers, commuters and anyone whose phone dies before the day ends.
The Full Picture
The PD Redux talks proper Power Delivery to phones that support it, so charging is as fast as the wall adapter allows. The USB-A port covers older devices. It recharges itself in about 3 hours over USB-C. For a laptop you will want a bigger 65W+ bank — this one is for phones and earbuds.
Bottom Line
The default power bank recommendation — small, fast, and dependable.
