Best Power Banks for Google Pixel 3 XL

(Last Updated On: June 5, 2020)

The Google Pixel 3 is finally here, after all the rumors and the leaks, the notch is actually real. Most of the community is rather bitter about how the phone came out to be, and we’d be lying if we said that we were roses and peaches about the Pixel 3. The reason for this is because even though it is an upgrade, the Notch is massive, although some could say that’s because of the large front-facing speakers and how there are two cameras at the front.

At the same time, there are others things such as it having no headphone jack and no expandable storage that also might put many people off.

That said, even though the Pixel 3 isn’t what we expected from it, we’re putting that aside, and still want to provide value to those that did purchase the phone from Google. The good news is that the charger is Qi wireless charging compatible and it also makes use of Power Delivery charging.

So if you’re in the market for a Power Delivery portable charger to charge your Pixel 3, then you’ve come to the right place. That’s because we’re going to be going over Power Delivery portable chargers that you should use for the phone. When it comes to Power Delivery charging for the Google Pixel 3, the USB-C Power Delivery port should have an 18W charging rate or higher.

Jackery SuperCharge 18W 10,200mAh Power Delivery Portable Charger

To start out, this is the Jackery SuperCharge 10,200mAh portable charger. So we’re going to first go over power banks that have mid-range power capacities. The reason for that is because there are many Power Delivery power banks that make use of high capacities and are rather large. When it comes to using a portable charger with a smartphone, you don’t really want one that‘s large and heavy.

A power bank that can fit into your pocket is one of the best types to get. That’s what Jackery SuperCharge and the other power banks in this guide have to offer. With its 10,200mAh power capacity, you’re able to charge the regular Google Pixel 3 with its 2,915mAh battery capacity and the Google Pixel 3 XL with its 3,430mAh battery capacity to full power about two times.

The charging from this power bank can be done through two ports. There’s the USB-C Power Delivery port that has an 18W charging rate and there’s also the USB-A port that has a standard charging rate of 12W (5V/2.4A).

The form factor of the power bank is small with its length of 3.6 inches and it has a thickness of 0.8 inches.

Aukey 10,000mAh Slim Power Delivery Portable Charger

Another great benefit of getting a mid-range power bank is that they not only have a small form factor but they can also have slim ones, too. That’s what this Aukey power bank features with its 10,000mAh power capacity, it manages to have a length of 5.8 inches, and a thickness of 0.5 inches. You can basically fit this power bank in the same pocket as your smartphone.

The power capacity is able to charge your Pixel 3 to full power about two times, it can also be used to charge other smartphones to full power about the same amount times, too. Speaking of charging other smartphones or other devices in general, you can potentially charge three devices at once with this Aukey power bank as it makes use of three ports.

Yes, three ports with a mid-range power bank are uncommon but it can still be highly useful.  So two of the ports are USB-A, with one of them featuring Quick Charge, and the other USB-A port has a standard charging speed of 5V/2.4A (12W). So there are actually two fast charging technologies on this power bank.

With the other fast charging being the USB-C Power Delivery port with its 18W of charging power.

AideaZ 10,000mAh Wireless Charging Power Delivery Portable Charger

Very few power banks on the market are making use of wireless charging and that’s actually a shame because when wireless charging is being used with a power bank then that’s truly wireless charging. Whereas with a wireless charger you have to use a charging cable to power the charger in the first place.

Well, this AideaZ power bank not only makes use of Power Delivery charging but it also has wireless charging. There are two output ports to use, One is a USB-A port that makes use of Quick Charge to fast charge Quick Charge compatible smartphones. The other port is a USB-C Power Delivery port that has an 18W charging rate.

The reason that we’re recommending a wireless charging power bank is that this the Pixel 3 is also Qi wireless charging compatible. Getting this AideaZ power bank is great as you can use the wireless charging by setting the phone on top of the power bank and you can you can also fast charge it with the Power Delivery port.

Of course, you can only do one charging method at a time.

To top it all off, you can recharge this power bank at a fast charging speed, too, with either of the two input ports. There’s a Micro-USB input port that’s Quick Charge compatible and the USB-C port can take Power Delivery speeds.

So to recharge this power bank at a fast charging rate, you need either a Quick Charge or Power Delivery wall charger.

Something not power related, but that we found cool is that this power bank makes use of a digital power capacity display. As a result, you get a percentage display and also a notification on whether you’re using Power Delivery, Quick Charge or standard charging power.

Pros for AideaZ 10,000mAh Wireless Charging

  • Has wireless charging and is able to charge an additional two devices via ports
  • Features Power Delivery and Quick Charge for fast charging

Another Slim power bank, that’s actually more slim than the Aukey power bank that we mentioned previously. As this Tronsmart power bank has a length of 5.6 inches and a thickness of 0.4 inches. So this charger will actually fit a lot easier into your pocket.

Coming from a new brand that looks to change the way tech products are created, Nimble creates their portable chargers with the environment in mind. That’s because their portable chargers are made of recyclable material and the same is true about their packaging, too.

Just because it’s made for the environment though doesn’t mean that this portable charger holds anything back. That’s especially true when it comes to the charging behind it, as there are three ports for you to use.

There are two USB-A ports, with one making use Quick Charge and the other USB-A port has a 5V/2.4A charging speed. The USB-C Power Delivery port has a standard 18W charging speed. To recharge the power bank you have to use the USB-C port.

This Nimble portable charger might not make use of a digital power capacity display but what it does have is 6 power indicators. One of the power indicators changes from either Green to show standard charging or Orange to show that Power Delivery or Quick Charge is being used. The other five power indicators represent 20% of the remaining power capacity.

AideaZ 20,000mAh Power Delivery Wireless Charging Power Bank

Yet another AideaZ power bank but this time, this is a 20,000mAh model of the previous power bank that we mentioned. So you get double the power capacity to use and as a result, you can potentially charge your Pixel 3 to its full power about four times.

The charging ports on this power bank remain the same, with the same 18W USB-C Power Delivery port and the Quick Charge USB-A port. That said, we think that maybe having a more powerful USB-C Power Delivery port would have made this power bank more helpful for charging larger PD compatible devices such as laptops.

You also get the wireless charging at the top of the power bank.
