Best Chargers for Sony Cybershot Cameras

(Last Updated On: March 26, 2018)

One of the most important parts of a smartphone is the camera that it uses. When smartphones were first gaining popularity their cameras were quite bad and most people didn’t expect to get high-quality photos. That’s really changed now, with smartphones actually featuring a very good camera and with the release of the Galaxy S9 the envelope has been pushed even more with the camera actually being able to change the aperture. So using a separate camera for taking pictures is something that not many people do anymore, at the same time having a separate camera does make sense if you want a more high-quality camera and don’t want to just settle for a smartphone camera.

One brand that has not given up on digital cameras is Sony. Sony is still the one brand that actually innovates with their cameras and it shows with what they’re able to do. If you’re someone that does use Sony’s Cybershot cameras, then you know how it is dealing with the battery life. Batteries can deplete quite quickly if you’re taking photos a lot. The one flaw with these cameras is that the battery cannot be charged while it’s inside the camera, at least that’s the case for most of them.

Instead, you have to take out the battery from the camera and place it into a battery charger. On the bright side, the battery charger is where you can use things like a wall charger, car chargers, and portable chargers to power the battery charger and recharge the camera’s battery.

In this guide, we’re going to be covering the best chargers to use for Sony Cybershot cameras so you can charge your batteries the best way possible and keep taking photos with your camera.

Best Portable Chargers for Sony Cybershot Cameras

Portable chargers are the one charging electronic other than USB wall chargers that most people should own. That’s because portable chargers (also called power banks) are able to go with you anywhere and what better charger to use with your portable devices than one that’s able to go with you anywhere. You can charge up the batteries for your Sony camera while you’re on the move and then use them later in the day if you don’t have immediate access to a USB wall charger that would otherwise limit you to just a single location.

With all that said, it’s important that you get a power bank that can charge your camera’s batteries to full power a few times over. While at the same time being able to charge your smartphone or a tablet, too.

Anker PowerCore 10000pic-1

The Anker PowerCore 10000 power bank is one portable charger that we’ve recommended a lot of times here at Charger Harbor for quite a few devices. The reason for that is because it’s a versatile portable charger, to begin with. There’s no special charging tech such as Quick Charge or Power Delivery being used and so it’s universally perfect to use for any USB chargeable device.

This Anker charger has a 10,000mAh that can charge your batteries to their full power about 7 times, and that’s because most of the batteries for the Sony’s Cybershot Cameras have a 1,000mAh battery capacity. So you can potentially use this power bank for a week straight if all you’re using it for is charging camera batteries. You can also use it to charge a smartphone to full power once with part of the power capacity.

There’s just a single USB-A port on this power bank and that’s really the only downside of this power bank as you can only charge a single device at a time. At the same time, the use of a single port means that you can focus the power capacity on a single device at a time. The port on this power bank has a charging output speed of 5V/2.4A, and that’s more than enough to power a battery charger to full power and have your battery charge at its max charging speed.

The size of this PowerCore 10000 portable charger is perhaps the best part of it and that’s because it has a length of only 3.6 inches and a thickness of 0.9 inches, so you can basically fit this power bank into your pocket.

Anker PowerCore 13000pic-1

Going a little higher with a power capacity but using two USB-A ports, this PowerCore 13000 portable charger is a better power bank to purchase if you want to charge two devices at once while still maintaining the PowerCore 10000 form factor. With it having a 13,000mAh power capacity you’re able to charge your batteries to full power about 9 times if you’re using the entirety of the capacity towards charging them. While at the same time charging your smartphone to full power is also possible.

This PowerCore 13000 portable charger has two ports, and it’s basically the feature that makes people purchase this power bank over the PowerCore 10000 with its single USB-A port. With this PowerCore 10000 charger using two USB-A ports with each of the ports outputting a charging speed of 5V/3.0A and the max output of the charger is 3A.

You can provide max power to the battery charger with the use of a single port at the time, but if you’re charging two devices at once with this power bank then that can result in slower charging speeds for your battery.

Or for providing many full charges for the camera batteries that you charge. That’s because it has a 16,750mAh power capacity.

This charger has two USB-A ports with one port using a charging speed of 5V/2.4A and the other port has a changing speed of 5V/2.1A. The max output of this power bank is 4.5A. So you can use the max power of each of the ports at the same time. We recommend using the 2.1A port to provide max power to a battery charger while using the other 2.4A port for charging smartphones or a tablet with.

EasyAcc 20,000mAh Power Bank with 4 PortsEasyAcc Monster 26,000mAh Power Bank

EasyAcc is a brand that has grown quite a lot and for good reasons too. With the brand releasing quality products rather than releasing lots of products that have low quality, nearly every one of their portable chargers have something special about them. Such as their EasyAcc 16,750mAh power bank with Doubin 5A recharge speeds, and also their 20,000mAh power bank that uses two USB-C ports, with one for output and one for input.

This EasyAcc 20,000mAh portable charger is more on the simple side with its use of only USB-A ports. The cool thing about this charger is that it uses 4 USB-A ports, so you can charge four devices at once. Each of the USB-A ports has a charging speed of 5V/2.4A and the max output of the charger is 4.8A. So you can use the max power of two ports at the same time. Using four of the ports at once with the max output being reached will result in a charging rate of 5V/1.2A.

So if you want to recharge your camera’s batteries as fast as possible then we recommend only charging two or three devices at once.

The power capacity of this EasyAcc portable charger is 20,000mAh and it’s with this capacity that you’re able to charge your batteries, smartphone and also a tablet to full power. Lots of power to use and so it’s great if you’re always going to be on the move with your camera and other devices.

The recharging for this EasyAcc portable charger is also another great part of this charger, and that’s because it uses two Micro-USB input ports that can be used at the same time. Using the two input ports at the same time will result in a 4A recharge speed.

RAVPower 32,000mAh Power Bank

The final power bank that we have to recommend to use for charging your Sony Cybershot camera batteries is RAVPower’s 32,000mAh portable charger. Yes, that’s right, it’s a lot of power to use, and that’s precisely why we’re recommending it to you. This amount of power capacity can basically last you for about a week and that includes charging your camera batteries, smartphones, and tablets. The charging from this RAVPower portable charger is also very good.

There are three USB-A charging ports used on this RAVPower portable charger, and each of the three ports has a charging speed of 5V/2.4A. The max output of this power bank is 6A.

So even with the max output being reached, charging four devices at once with this RAVPower charging station is still a great experience with it being able to output 5V/2.0A per port.
