4 Best Powerbanks for iPads

The latest iPads may dazzle with their high refresh rates and snappy processors. However, these brilliant displays and power-hungry specs drain all of the battery in the blink of an eye.

If you want to stay connected I suggest you get a reliable power bank with at least 10,000 mAh battery capacity and 30W fast charge support so that you can charge up your iPad’s battery asap. 

Here’s a list of the best powerbanks for iPads, considering a few factors such as battery capacity, ports, fast charging, compatibility, weight, and more.

1. Lenovo Go (The Best Pick)

1. Brand: Lenovo
2. Connector Type: USB Type C, USB Type A
3. Number of ports: 2
4. Battery Capacity: 20000mAh
5. Weight: 0.843 lbs

With the Lenovo Go, you get a whopping 20,000 mAh at your disposal to charge your iPad, plus it boasts fast charge support of up to 65W.

This 20,000 mAh is enough to charge your iPad Pro 12.9 model twice or your iPad Mini up to three times.

The best part is that all this power is housed in a very small brick, which looks elegantly simple, has a matte gray texture, and has a handy, long USB-C cable attached permanently.

I think Lenovo doesn’t want our hands to get dirty with the bundle of cables; that’s why they attached one. 

Following that, there are two more ports, one for USB A and one for USB C. So, simultaneously, you can charge up to three devices at once.

And, if you are wondering about the brick, it charges in 3 hours (not the quickest). Also, there’s a small charging indicator from where you can check the battery left inside it.

So, overall, this powerbank is for people who don’t mind paying for quality. I can’t stress enough how much time it saves, but it really does. 

2. Anker Portable Power Bank (The Second-Best Option)

1. Brand: Anker
2. Connector Type: USB Type C, USB Type A
3. Number of port: 2
4. Battery Capacity: 10,000 mAH
5. Weight: 0.468 lbs

Next up is an Anker Portable Power Bank, which looks pretty neat and is an even better portable option. 

The only downside here is that its capacity is less than Lenovo’s. Other than that, it’s a fairly interesting option. 

It has 10,000 mAh of maximum energy, which is enough for a full charge of an iPad Pro or any other iPad model.

And if you look at the design, it’s incredibly slim and conveniently fits in my pocket. It has a nice LED indicator for showing battery life and is universally compatible. 

Along with this, there are two ports in the powerbank, a USB-C and a USB-A. .

The USB-C port allows 20W fast charging to juice up my iPad quickly, whereas the USB-A goes up to 12W of charging, which is okay to charge another device. 

Sadly, there’s no wireless charging, not even an integrated USB-C cable (like Lenovo Go); that’s why I’ve placed it second on my list. 

In extras, Anker has got your back with the PowerCore 10K. Its MultiProtect safety system offers protection at high temperatures. 

This is a nice addition that ensures that your device won’t overheat.

3. Anker 737 Power bank (The Editors Choice)

1. Brand: Anker
2. Connector Type: USB Type C1, USB Type C2, USB Type A
3. Number of ports: 3
4. Battery Capacity: 24,000 mAH
5. Weight: 1.4 lbs

Of course, another Anker is a must-have on my list.

This was one of the most popular power banks back in 2022 and let me tell you why it’s still an interesting option.

The Anker 737 Power Bank is an ultra powerful portable charging solution that offers a 24,000mAh battery capacity—enough to fully charge the iPad Pro 12.9 up to 2 times.

The overall design seems quite sleek and modern. 

It has that small LED display that shows both the output and input power of the power bank and even estimates how long it will take to completely recharge the power bank.

Besides the design, it easily slides into your bag, purse or whatever you have with you. 

And if you ask me about the ports, then there are three ports—2 USB-C and 1 USB-A. 

Two USB-C ports deliver rapid 140W charging, ideal for iPads and MacBooks. Plus, the USB-A port offers a solid 18W charging option, which is enough for iPhones and other smartphones.

These ports can be very useful for travelers, busy professionals, or anyone who values a portable, super-powerful power bank.

And lastly, the most iconic part of this power bank is its latest Power Delivery 3.1 and bi-directional technology. 

You can quickly recharge the power bank itself or use a whopping 140W of ultra-powerful charging.

4. Belkin BoostCharge USB-C (The Budget-Friendly Power bank)

1. Brand: Belkin
2. Connector Type: USB Type C, USB Type A
3. Number of Ports: 2 
4. Battery Capacity: 20,000 mAH
5. Weight: 1lbs

I know about Belkin; I’ve reviewed a lot of their products. They are known for consistently delivering high-quality gadgets.

And the same is true for the Belkin Boostcharge Powerbank.

While it is a bit heavy when held in hand, it doesn’t really matter if you need a powerful power bank.

As far as the design goes, the Extra Compact power bank’s name speaks for itself. 

Despite its big 20,000 mAh capacity, it manages to maintain its “extra compact” promise. Trust me, it’s so compact that it easily fits into my pocket or bag. 

Other than that, it’s a no-frills, simple-looking brick that doesn’t shout for attention.

The 20,000 mAh capacity can completely charge the iPad Pro 12.9 inch twice, just like the Lenovo powerbank.  

And the power bank has two ports for charging other devices—A USB-C and a USB-A 

Here, the USB-C port can deliver up to 30W of power, making it perfect for charging an iPad Pro, while the USB-A port can handle smaller devices at up to 12W.

For added convenience, this power bank features a built-in LED indicator that keeps you in the loop about its battery status, so you’re never left in the lurch with a drained power bank when you need it most.

So, overall, it’s a nice budget option that can easily provide you with what you can expect from a powerful charger power bank. 

Final Verdict

We all know that iPads without power are nothing more than a paperweight. Having a portable power bank for the iPad on your side can put your mind at ease.
