If you’re looking for a portable charger that handles laptops, phones, tablets, and even gaming handhelds, the Baseus Blade 100W 20,000 mAh Power Bank is now $79.99, down from its $99.99 list price. That’s a solid 20% discount off a slim yet powerful companion for travel or remote work.
Pros
- 100W USB-C Power Delivery supports fast laptop charging or multiple device fast charging via one port
- Dual USB-C + dual USB-A ports let you charge up to four devices simultaneously (or three at full speed)
- Slim (13.4 × 13.4 × 2 cm) and lightweight (~440 g) — fits easily in laptop sleeves or day bags
- Real-time digital display shows voltage, current, and remaining runtime
- Pass-through charging supported — can charge the power bank and your device simultaneously at up to 60W input
Cons
- Display can be hard to read in bright light — dim viewing angle reported
- Runs hot when delivering sustained high power — thermal throttling can reduce full 100W output over time
- Reliability concerns from some user reports—a few DOA cases reported on Reddit
- Bulky for a pocket — better suited to backpacks than coat pockets
