The d-power ultra thin series S8+ 10,000mAh wireless power bank easily fits in most compartments because of its slim profile and is able to charge up to three devices at the same time with both USB Type-A and USB Type-C ports and the built-in lightning port are able to deliver power. 

The power bank is also able to charge wirelessly at 5V1A.

Let's dive deeper into the device!

The black polycarbonate top houses the LED display that displays the remaining percentage of power charged. It also indicates if there is output power or when it is charging. This includes how much Voltage and Ampere is being put out.

The 10,000mAh can charge our Samsung Galaxy Note9's 4,000mAh more than 2 times via the USB-A, USB-C ports and via wireless charging. It supports Samsung's Adaptive fast charging, Huawei's Super Charging, Qualcomms Quick Charge 3.0 and Power Delivery 3.0. If you have a wire that support these standards for charging, it will charge at its fastest.

Complete with fast charging standards!

Our Note9 took around 90 minutes to charge from 0 to 100 percent while our Mate 20 Pro's 4,200mAh battery took under 75 minutes because of the support for Huawei's Super Charge. It isn't as fast as using the power brick that comes with the Mate 20 Pro in the box.

You are also able to charge up to 4 devices at once via the USB Type-A, Type-C, lightning port and the wireless charging. We do not recommend it though because it drains the power bank quickly.

The LED display displays the remaining charge along with the output and whether or not the output is Quick Charge or not.

The power bank takes three hours to charge from 0 to 100 percent depending on the cable and power plug you use to charge the d-power S8+.

Pros - Slim and Light weight, wireless charging support, USB Type-C, Power Delivery 3.0 support, works with multiple fast charging standards
Cons - Three hours charging time
