Best Chargers for the ZTE Axon 7

(Last Updated On: June 26, 2020)

Not exactly the most well-known smartphones on the market, the ZTE Axon can be described as being one of the underdogs in the smartphone market. That’s because it has all the hardware and software specs that most other flagship phones have and yet this one has a lower price.

Of course, here at Charger Harbor, we’re most focused on the battery capacity of a smartphone and its charging speed, which the ZTE Axon 7 does a great job with.

Chargers in this Guide:

Fast Charging is a Need for Modern Smartphones

That’s because it has a 3,250mAh battery capacity and that’s a large battery capacity that most Samsung Galaxy smartphones have.

The charging with this portable charger is also really good as it uses USB-C and is compatible with Quick Charge 3.0. So you’re able to charge your phones to its max power or at least up to a certain point a whole lot faster than standard charging.

With its use of a large battery and fast charging tech, Quick Charge 3.0, you’re going to want to know more about what the best chargers are to use with your ZTE Axon 7.

Best Portable Chargers for the ZTE Axon 7

The portable charger that you choose for this phone needs to have few criteria on point and that would be it needs to have enough power capacity for a full charge and it also should feature Quick Charge 3.0. Well, just so you know, all the chargers that are in this guide feature Quick Charge 3.0 as it’s the best way to charge your Axon 7 phone.

Anker PowerCore+ 10050pic-1-1

This powerCore+ 10050 is one of the best portable charger choices that you can choose as it has a 10,050mAh power capacity to charge your Axon 7 to its full power about two times.

This is also where we are drawing the line for the power capacity as this charger has lots of power and yet it maintains a very small size with a length of 3.8 inches and a thickness of 0.9 inches.

This 10,000mAh power bank can fit into your pocket or you can hold it in your hand while you charge and use your smartphone.

A Single Powerful Port

It’s charging power is, of course, the other reason that we’re recommending this charger. As it has a single Quick Charge 3.0 port to charge your phone at its max charging speed.

A great benefit of this charger using just a single port is that the power capacity is just being focused on a single device, as most 10,000mAh power banks have two USB ports and that can result in the user charging two devices at once, which can result in the power capacity splitting up.

Input Uses Quick Charge

The recharging with this portable charger also features Quick Charge 3.0 through its Micro-USB input port and when you use a Quick Charge 3.0 USB wall charger with it, you can recharge it within 3.5 hours to its full power.
