Best Chargers for Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet and Xperia Z3 Tablet

(Last Updated On: September 17, 2017)

There are very few tablets that are compatible with Quick Charge, however, the Sony Xperia Z4 tablet and the Xperia Z3 Compact tablet use Quick Charge 2.0. This is absolutely perfect because tablets are actually one of the most important portable devices where fast charging can be the most useful. Sure, it’s nice to have Quick Charge with smartphones but they usually have a lower power capacity than tablets. Tablets, on the other hand, have very high capacities and that means they’re going to take longer to recharge, which is why these two Sony tablets using Quick Charge is so helpful.

Here’s the battery capacity of these two tablets:

Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet Capacity = 6,000mAh

Sony Xperia Z3 Compact Tablet Capacity = 4,500mAh

As you can see, these tablets basically have the battery capacity of two smartphones and it can take quite a long time for them to charge if they were just using a 2 Amp standard charging speed. The use of a Quick Charge charger is the best option and that is why Charger Harbor has chosen the best chargers to use for the Xperia Z4 and the Xperia Z3 Compact tablet.

Other than the use of Quick Charge tech, the power bank that you choose to get for your Sony tablet is going to need a high power capacity. That’s because it needs to have enough power to charge your Sony tablet to its full power at least once or many times to its full power.

Aukey 20,000mAh Power Bank with Quick Charge 2.0

This 20,000mAh power bank from Quick Charge has quite a few features. Of course, its 20,000mAh power capacity is able to charge the two Xperia tablets to their full power at least two times. It has two USB ports, with one of the ports featuring Quick Charge 2.0 and the other port has a fast standard charging speed of 5V/2.4A. So you can charge your Xperia tablet at its max charging speed and at the same time, you’re able to charge an iPad at its max charging speed with the other USB port.

What makes this 20,000mAh power bank better than most is that it uses two input ports. There’s one Lightning input port and the other one is a Micro-USB input. Unfortunately, you can only use one input at a time but the use of a Lightning input port is very uncommon and can be very useful for some.

If you’re searching for even more power beyond this 20,000mAh Aukey power bank then there’s also a 30,000mAh power capacity version that is able to last for a longer duration. It has the same charging ports as the 20,000mAh version; with it using a Quick Charge port and also an AiPower port with 2.4A charging speed. However, what’s different, is that you can use both of the input ports at the same time to recharge this 30,000mAh power bank faster.

Specs of the Aukey 20,000mAh Power Bank with Quick Charge 2.0:

  • Capacity: 20,000mAh
  • Output:

 Standard USB Port: 5V/2.4A

Quick Charge Port: 5V/2.0A | 9V/1.67A | 12V/1.25A

  • Input:

Micro-USB Input: 5V/2.0A

Lightning Input: 5V/2.0A

  • LED Power Indicators: Single Light
  • Size: 5.9 x 3.3 x 0.8 inches
  • Weight: 13.7 Ounces

Anker PowerCore Speed 20000

Anker has always released some of the best power banks on the market and that is no different here with their power bank that has a 20,000mAh power capacity. So it’s able to charge your Xperia tablets to their max power at least twice.

This portable charger has two USB ports, with one of the ports featuring Quick Charge 3.0 and the other port has a 5V/2.4A charging speed. What makes this 20,000mAh power bank great though is that it uses a Micro-USB input port that features Quick Charge. So you can use a Quick Charge USB wall charger to recharge this power bank and have it recharged to its full power within just 5-6 hours, which is really short for its power capacity.

Specs of the PowerCore Speed 20000:

  • Capacity:   20,000mAh
  • Output:

Quick Charge Port: 5-8V ⎓ 3A  | 8-10V ⎓ 2.4A  | 10-12V ⎓ 2A    | Standard Charging Speed for Quick Charge port: 5V/2.0A

Standard Port: 5V/2.4A

  • Input:5V ⎓ 2A | 9V ⎓ 2A | 12V ⎓ 1.5A
  • LED Power Indicators: 10 LED Dotted Power Capacity Indicators
  • Size: 7.4 x 2.8 x 0.7 inches
  • Weight: 12.6 Ounces

We also recommend Anker’s higher capacity version called the PowerCore+ 26800 which has a power capacity of 26,800mAh as you probably could have guessed and that means you’re able to charge your Xperia tablet to full power about 4 times. Another part that makes this power bank better is that it uses 3 USB charging ports, with one of the ports featuring Quick Charge 3.0 and then the other two ports have a 5V/3.0A charging speed which is faster than the standard 2.4A charging speed.

The input for this power bank also features Quick Charge, so you’re able to recharge it faster when you’re using a Quick Charge USB wall charger.

Tronsmart Presto 10,000mAh Power Bank with Dual Ports

On the lower end of the power capacities, there’s this 10,000mAh Tronsmart power bank that is able to charge your Z4 tablet to full power at least once and the Xperia Z3 tablet can charge to its full power 1.5 times. What matters most with this charger though is the charging power that it has.

It has two ports. One of the USB ports has a charging speed of 5V/2.4A and the other one uses Quick Charge, which is the one that you’re going to use with your Xperia tablet. What’s even more impressive is that this 10,000mAh power bank uses Quick Charge with its input port for recharging; with this small of a power capacity and the use of a Quick Charge USB wall charger when recharging it, you’re able to get this power bank to its full power within just 3 hours.

Another reason that we highly recommend this charger is its very small size and slim form factor. With just a length of 5.4 inches and a thickness of 0.6 inches, you’re able to fit this power bank into your pocket or you can just hold it in your hand too.

Specs of the Tronsmart 10,000mAh Power Bank:

  • Capacity:  10,000mAh
  • Output:

Quick Charge Port: 5V/3.0A | 9V/2.0A | 12V/1.5A

VoltiQ Standard Port: 5V/2.4A

  • Input: 5V/3.0A | 9V/2.0A | 12V/1.5A
  • LED Power Indicators: 4 White LED Power Capacity Indicators
  • Size: 5.4 x 2.6 x 0.6 inches
  • Weight: 7.8 Ounces

PowerCore+ 10050 Power Bank

pic-1-1

 

Another 10,000mAh power bank is this Anker charger. It’s called the PowerCore+ 10050 and it has a much more objective kind of design. 10,000mAh power capacity is really only meant for charging your Sony tablet to its max power only once or one and a half times. What makes this power bank objective though, is its use of just a single USB port. Most 10,000mAh power banks use two ports as you saw with the Tronsmart charger above. That said, it can actually prove to be more useful to have a charger use just a single USB port, as you can only charge a single device at a time and therefore the power capacity will be focused on just a single device.

Speaking of the single port, the port on this power bank uses Quick Charge 3.0 and the Micro-USB input port for recharging this charger also uses Quick Charge 3.0. So when you’re using a Quick Charge wall charger to recharge it, you can recharge it to its full power within just 3 hours.

Anker PowerCore+ 13400

If you want more power then Anker also has a 13,000mAh version of their PowerCore+ 10050, but this one is called the PowerCore+ 13400. It has two USB ports with one port using Quick Charge and another port having a 5V/2.4A charging speed. The only downside to this power bank is that it doesn’t feature Quick Charge with its input port, and instead, it has a 5V/2.0A recharging speed.

Best USB Wall Chargers for Sony Xperia Z4 and Xperia Z3 Compact Tablet

Wall charging is most likely the type of charging that you’re most familiar with. If so, then it’s going to be quite easy to understand why these chargers are going to be best to use with your Xperia Z tablet and also for all your other charging needs. There are two main types of USB chargers that I’m going to talk about though, with there being USB wall chargers and USB charging stations.

Anker PowerPort+ 2

One of the simplest and most useful USB wall chargers is Anker’s PowerPort+ 2 charger. It just uses two charging ports but one of the ports uses Quick Charge 3.0 and the other port has a 5V/2.4A output. So you can charge your tablet at its max charging speed and charge another device with the standard port at their max charging speed. Another thing that makes this wall charger useful is its form factor as it has a retractable AC adapter and that makes it easier to travel with.

Specs of the Anker PowerPort 2 with Quick Charge 3.0:

  • Output:

Quick Charge Port: 5V/3.0A | 9V/2.0A | 12V/1.5A

Standard Port: 5V/2.4A

  • Input: AC 100-240V
  • LED Power Indicators: None
  • Size: 2.6 x 2.6 x 1.1 inches
  • Weight: 5.1 ounces

Anker PowerPort 4 Speed

If you want basically the same wall charger as the PowerPort 2 just with more USB ports then Anker also has a 4 port charger with one of the ports using Quick Charge and the other three ports using a 2.4 Amp standard charging speed. There is also a retractable AC adapter with this wall charger to make portability easier.

Specs of the PowerPort Speed 4:

  • Ports: 4
  • Quick Charge: Yes
  • Output: Power iQ Ports: 5V/2.4A | Quick Charge Port
  • Input: AC 100-240V
  • Size: 2.7 x 2.7 x 1.1 inches
  • Weight: 5 Ounces

Tronsmart 5-Port USB Charging Station

If you want more charging ports with a USB charger then we recommend USB charging stations like this Tronsmart charger that has 5 USB ports. One of the USB ports uses Quick Charge 3.0 and the other four USB ports have a charging speed of 5V/2.4A. The standard part of this charging station has a max output of 7.2A and with the max output being reached, each of the standard ports is able to output a charging speed of 5V/1.8A which is still really good.

Specs of the Tronsmart 5-Port USB Charging Station:

  • Output:
  • Each Standard USB-A Port: 5V/2.4A
  • Quick Charge Ports: 3.6V-6.5V/3.0A | 6.5V-9V/2.0A | 9V-12V/1.5A
  • Input: AC 100-240V
  • LED Power Indicators: None
  • Size: 3.9 x 1.4 x 3.4 inches
  • Weight: 13.8 ounces

Aukey 6-Port USB charging station

Aukey has three major types of USB charging stations that use Quick Charge. With there being one that has 6-Ports and one of the ports using Quick Charge. They also have another 6-Port USB charging station that has two ports which use Quick Charge, so you can charge your Xperia Z tablet and a Quick Charge compatible smartphones at the same time with this charger.

Specs of the Aukey Charging Station with 6-Ports and Quick Charge:

  • Output:

Each USB-A Port: 5V/2.4A

Quick Charge Ports: 3.6V-6.5V/3.0A | 6.5V-9V/2.0A | 9V-12V/1.5A

  • Input: AC 100-240V
  • LED Power Indicators: None
  • Size: 4.06 × 2.80 × 1.02 inches
  • Weight: 7.2 ounces

The last one of Aukey’s USB chargers that we want to recommend is their 5-Port USB charging station that is very similar to the Tronsmart charger that we mentioned above; as it has a single port that uses Quick Charge 3.0 and four other 2.4A standard ports.

Car Chargers for the Sony Z4 Tablet

Quick Charge with car charging is the best combination ever and that’s because you’re able to charge your device very quickly. So by the time that you reach your destination your device is charged up to a good amount.

Aukey single Port Car Charger with Quick Charge

A single port car charger is all that you may need as you might just have your Xperia Z4 or Z3 tablet to charge while you’re driving. Perhaps you might also have a Quick Charge smartphone too. That is why we think this 1-port Aukey car charger is one of the best choices for fast charging. It only uses a single port with Quick Charge and it can also charge standard devices too. Aukey also has a Flush Fit type that’s really small and is able to fit into your 12V outlet fully.

Specs of the Aukey 1-Port Car Charger with Quick Charge:

  • # Of Ports: 1
  • Output:

Quick Charge Port: 3.6V-6.5V/3A | 6.5V-9V/2.0A | 9V-12V/1.5A

Max Output: 3.6A (18W)

  • LED Power Indicators: None
  • Size: 0.98 × 0.98 × 1.63 inches
  • Weight: 0.43 ounces

If you want two separate ports for Quick Charge while you’re driving, then Aukey also has a two port car charger that has both of its ports using Quick Charge 3.0. As a result, you can charge a tablet like the Xperia Z and a Quick Charge smartphone at their max charging speed.

Skyocean 3-Port Car Charger with Quick Charge 3.0

If you’re finding that Quick Charge with all ports of a car charger just isn’t your thing, then Skyocean’s 3-port car charger can be more useful. That’s because it has a single Quick Charge port and the other two ports have a charging speed of 5V/2.4A. So you can charge your standard devices at their max speeds while still charging your Quick Charge devices at its max speed too, all while you’re driving.

Specs of the Skyocean 3-Port Car Charger:

  • # Of Ports: 3
  • Output:
  • Standard USB Ports: 5V/2.4A

Having 4-ports with a car charger is also possible with RAVPower’s 4-port car charger that has one of its ports using Quick Charge and the other 3 have a 2.4A output. Having 4 devices charging at once while you’re driving during a road trip can be very useful and Aukey also has a 4-port charger that uses Quick Charge. Both of these car chargers have the same specs.

Specs of the RAVPower 4-Port Car Charger with Quick Charge 3.0:

  • # Of Ports: 4
  • Output:
