(Last Updated On: December 13, 2020)

Any more power bank on the market is going to be able to charge your smartphone, whether you have an Android or iPhone, all power banks are compatible to charge them.

Then after you get past that, there are the rest of the things that a power bank features that you have to look at features such as the power capacity, charging speed, or size of the charger too.

Some power banks are larger than others because they have very large power capacities and they also have many different charging capabilities. Just like this MAXOAK power bank that has a 50,000mAh power capacity and 6 ways to charge your devices.

The power capacity alone is staggering but the 6 charging ways are really what takes the trophy.

Power Capacity:

The starting power capacity of his MAXOAK charger is 50,000mAh and there’s still a lot of power even when the power capacity goes through a conversion.

Just how much power capacity is lost during charging? Well, the MAXOAK has an average conversion of 70% and that’s going to leave you with 35,000mAh of useable power.

This is mainly because there’s going to be a lot of things charging at once when you use the power, the power banks use Lithium Polymer batteries, and of course, there’s power lost through charging cables. Since you’re going to be charging many devices at once, there’s going to be power lost throughout each charging cable.

How does the MAXOAK 50,000mAh Charge Smartphones

With all that said, we don’t find this to be a hindrance because the power bank still has a lot of power capacity to use. It’s going to burn right through charging smartphones because you’ll be able to charge even larger battery capacity smartphones multiple times over.

Like the iPhone 6 Plus that has a capacity of 2,915mAh which you’ll be able to charge 11 full times and the same goes for a Galaxy S6 that will charge also charge 11 times too.

So if you’re charging solely smartphones with the power bank, it could last on a single charge from anywhere for about a week or even a month if you’re occasionally using it.

How does the MAXOAK 50,000mAh Charge Tablets

It’s also a good power bank for charging tablets and this time this isn’t just true for charging Mini tablets, but let’s go over those first anyway. If you’re charging smaller tablets like the Samsung Galaxy Tab, then the power bank will be able to charge them about 7 times to full power.

Or if you’re charging an iPad Mini 2 or iPad Mini 4 then they’ll be able to get 5-6 full charges.

Moving onto the larger, more colossal USB charging devices, the Full-Sized iPad 12-inch tablet that has a power capacity of 10,000mAh is going to be able to charge 3 times to its full power capacity.

Considering that it’s a full-sized tablet, the MAXOAK power bank hits it right out of the ballpark with multiple full charges.

Output Charging:

Even though a lot is going on with the charging side, it’s easy to make sense of and this is the second strongest point of the power bank after the power capacity being the first.

Charging with the USB Charging Ports

There are 4 USB charging Ports. Two of the USB ports have a charging speed of 5V/2.1A and the other 2 charging ports have a charging speed of 5V/1.0A.

5V/2.1A charging Ports:

Both of these charging ports are the ones that should be your first choice when using any of the 4 charging ports because they offer the faster-charging speed.

They’re able to charge most smartphones at their max charging speed, however, the power bank does not feature Quick Charge and therefore, Quick Charge smartphones will not be able to charge at their max charging speeds.

With that said, both these ports are still powerful and they’re perfect to use with tablets too because they can charge some tablets at their max charging speeds and the charging speed comes close to charging iPads at their max charging speed of 5V/2.4A.

5V/1.0A charging Ports:

You should only be using these 2 charging ports if you’re already using the two 2.1A charging ports, this is because both this only offer 1 Amp charging speeds and that’s slow charging for most smartphones and tablets.

Although, overall, you’re able to charge 4 USB charging devices at the same time and that’s amazing.

Charging with the DC Output Ports

There are 2 DC Output charging ports. One provides more power than the other but either way, they’re able to charge compatible laptops or digital cameras. Also, it’s important to know that you can use all 4 of the USB charging ports and 1 DC Output port all the same time.

DC 20V/3A Output:

This DC port can charge most Laptops and if you check out the Amazon page of the MAXOAK power bank, then you can see that it comes with 11 different kinds of connectors for many different Laptops. With that said, the power bank cannot charge MacBooks.

Also, before purchasing, check the charging power that is needed to charge your Laptop which can most likely be found under the Laptop or on the power brick that it uses for charging.

DC 12V/2.5A Output:

The other DC Output port has a slower charging speed and MAXOAK has said that this DC port is most useful for charging Digital cameras. Even though it can be used for that purpose, it can also be used to charge Laptops as well and any other devices that have charging needs that fit its Output.

Input Charging:

It uses a DC Input to recharge itself and for a 50,000mAh power bank, it recharges very quickly because the Home charger that the power bank comes with can recharge the MAXOAK portable charger at 16.8V/2.5A. As a result, the power bank can recharge to full power within 6-8 hours.

Size and Weight:

Portability is not the strong point of the MAXOAK power bank because it’s large and very heavy. Yes, it’s portable but in a more eventful manner of taking this on a road trip, for camping or taking to the library because you can freely sit anywhere you want without having to be next to an Outlet.

It has a length of 8.1 inches, a width of 5.3 inches, and a thickness is 1.3 inches. The weight of the power bank is 2.7 pounds. So for the most part, this going to be set down, and it’s going to be placed into a bag for when you’re taking it places. Luckily it does come with a container/bag to place the power bank in.

Functional Components:

All of the functional parts of the high capacity power bank are on a single side and we mean everything. This includes the 4 USB charging ports, the 2 DC Output ports, the power button, 4 LED power capacity indicators, and the Input port. Charging does not start automatically, so you must press the power button to begin charging.

Structure and Material:

The MAXOAK power bank is very sturdy, it can withstand shortfalls onto carpeted flooring but we don’t think it can withstand high falls onto hard flooring. So it’s perfect to be used every day, to have it with you on travels and so on.

Tech:

Since you can potentially charge 5 devices at the same time, the MAXOAK power bank has a 6 Tech Safety system that can keep you and your devices safe during charging.

One of the most useful ones is Over-Current protection, which can shut the power bank off automatically if the power bank is Outputting too much power than it can handle. This can prevent damage to the power bank and stop a potential fire.

Reliability

If you know what you’re getting with the large size and weight, then the MAXOAK power bank is a very reliable portable charger. You can charge 2 smartphones or 2 tablets at the same time or possibly 4 smartphones at the same time if you wanted to, and to put it basically, you can charge a lot of devices on the USB charging end.

Another major reliable factor is that you can charge Laptops as well and that can be useful for when your Laptop is lower on power and you’re nowhere near a Wall Outlet. Of course, there’s the power capacity that can last for days and even weeks depending on how you use the power bank.

Summary:

Power:

It has a very high power capacity that can charge lots of devices many times over and this isn’t just for smartphones, it’s true for Mini tablets as well as Full-Sized tablets and Laptops too.

You can charge 5 devices at the same time with 4 of them being USB charging devices and 1 DC Output device like a Laptop.

Design:

It’s a large and heavy power bank and that’s normal because of the high power capacity. With that said, it’s easy to use and you can still take it with you on your travels, it’s just that you’re moving around more weight and mass

Build:

Not a rugged power bank but it holds its own with a strong build. The tech is on par with what the power bank offers with it being able to automatically shut off if things are becoming too heated.

Reliability:

It’s the perfect kind of power bank for traveling and any time when you won’t have a stable source of power. For two main reasons.

It has a humongous power capacity and because it can charge lots of devices at once.
