Iniu PD 22.5w 20000mAh review: : a high-capacity power bank for a super low price

Iniu PD 22.5W 20000mAh review

The Iniu PD 22.5w 20000mAh isn’t the most capacious power bank on the market. But for its price, it will give you a whole lot of charges for not much money.

The Iniu PD 22.5w 20000mAh doesn’t rock a ridiculous number of features, but what’s there is impressive, especially for the price. First of all it has a whopping 20,000mAh Lithium Polymer cell inside, which accounts for its bulk, which means it should keep charging your devices day after day. Additionally, with a USB-C and two standard USB ports, you’re able to charge three devices at once.

To really put the Iniu PD 22.5w 20000mAh through its paces, I took it away to a music festival and used it to charge my iPhone 12 Pro over the course of a long weekend. Charging my phone up to 100% once a day on the Saturday, Sunday, and Monday only depleted the battery down to 54%, meaning you may well get almost a week’s worth of charge out of it if you aren’t fully draining your phone every day. That’s more than many of the best power banks can deliver.

On top of this, the Iniu PD 22.5w 20000mAh offers 22.5W charging, which is fine for the max charging the best iPhones require, although falls quite a way short of the 100W that the best Android phones like the OnePlus Nord 4 are capable of drawing, and means you won’t be charging a MacBook off it. In practice though, during a separate test, this meant it took 128 minutes to charge the iPhone 13 Pro’s 3,095mAh battery, which could be much worse.

Looks-wise, the Iniu PD 22.5w 20000mAh is a nice-looking battery, while not being so stunning that you’re going to be terrified of damaging it. It comes with a pleasing matte finish in either black or white. An LCD screen on the front of the device tells you exactly how much charge is left – far more useful than the series of LEDs some power banks employ.

At an inch thick and weighing 12.8oz (323g), this power bank has got some serious chonk to it. It also doesn’t have any IP weatherproofing, meaning you really don’t want to drop it in any puddles. In spite of this, it still sat comfortably enough in my pocket as I wandered around and boogied at the festival, and it survived a full day of torrential rain in the pocket of my damp jeans without much worry.

For an affordable power bank, the Iniu PD 22.5w 20000mAh offers a serious amount of juice. While it doesn’t provide features like fast charging or wireless charging, it’s an obvious choice for anyone who wants to keep their phone topped up during a week away.
