The Best Portable Chargers and Power Banks for 2026
The foldable and portable Statechi Duo Wireless Charger Power Stand allows you to charge your phone and AirPods simultaneously without wires, thanks to its 10,000mAh battery.
Pass-through charging is another feature to consider; with it, you can charge your device and a portable power bank simultaneously. That's convenient if both your phone and backup battery are running out of power.
The Nimble Champ is our top recommendation for most folks, but we have all sorts of alternatives here. Read our Best MagSafe Power Banks guide for magnetic wireless chargers, and our Best Portable Power Stations guide for more power. Updated November 2025: We've added a power bank from EcoFlow, and an honorable mention for a new Anker power bank.
The charging cord is shorter than other models. This portable power bank from myCharge earned the top slot in our test for its portability, battery life, and ability to accommodate both iPhone and Android models. Thanks to the USB port, type C, and lightning cable adapters included, you don't have to bring your own cables.
The best power banks are always handy. Our gadgets have a Murphy's law–like ability to run out of power at the least convenient moment: as you step on the bus, right in the middle of an important meeting, or just as you get comfortable on the couch and press Play. But with a portable charger, you can keep using your devices.
