Smartphones and power banks have undoubtedly evolved over years with some interesting tech inside. We can now choose from a range of features that suit our style and preferences such as whether to go for a punch-hole front camera or notch.
Similarly, we have an option to choose between an under-display fingerprint sensor or a physical button and so forth.
However; in contrast to other aspects of our handsets, batteries still have a long way to go. There has not been a noticeable development in the mechanics used in the lithium-ion batteries used in almost all phones currently available.
Coupled with frequent Eneo electricity or power failure in Cameroon especially in areas such as Buea, Bamenda, Douala, and Yaounde, getting or purchasing a power bank is warranted.
There aren't smartphones out there that can comfortably promise to take you through an entire day under heavy use and still have some battery juice in the evening, hence the need to have a power bank just in case.
What is a Power Bank?
A Power bank is an electronic device that stores power to charge your devices when you need it. There are a couple of power bank technologies you could choose from such as those that have alternative charging methods such as using solar, etc.
But as much as they can offer some kind of reliability, carrying power banks can sometimes be a tedious endeavour. For instance, you cannot have it for more than a day without simply misplacing or sometimes not even using it. But if you are travelling or moving to a remote location that power is not much of a necessity, then perhaps power banks could offer some solace.
While the batteries inside our smartphones haven’t evolved that much, the modes of charging them have tremendously improved from the gone days. We now have wired and wireless charging options that you do not need to hook a cable between your phone and the power source.
Just like some Android phones or iPhones, Not all power banks support wireless charging technologies such as Qi. If your phone supports wireless charging technologies, then here are a couple of reliable power bank options you could opt for.
