The power bank measures 163 x 57 x 39.9mm, roughly the size of a 330ml can or slightly longer than the iPhone 15 Pro Max (159.9mm). With its 20,000 mAh capacity, it can charge an iPhone 14 up to 3.3 times.

Featuring two USB-C ports and one USB-A port, the power bank offers a maximum power output of 150W in multi-port charging and 120W in single-port charging. This allows for 120W fast charging on all compatible Xiaomi devices. For instance, it can fully charge the Xiaomi 14 Pro at 120W while the Xiaomi 14 Ultra receives its maximum supported 90W. A low-current charging mode is available for TWS or neckband earphones, activated by double-pressing the power button. The device includes a display to show the remaining battery percentage but does not support wireless charging.

Additional Features

The power bank houses a 73Wh battery, which is below the 100Wh limit allowed on planes, making it travel-friendly. It supports 90W self-charging, reaching 50% in 30 minutes, and comes with a 1-meter long 240W 6A cable compatible with PD 3.1 protocol, suitable for charging both smartphones and laptops.
