Anker’s Zolo Power Bank is down to $21.99 right now at Amazon. Maybe not the absolute best price we’ve seen for this model, but it’s only a couple of bucks more. And considering how nifty the Anker Zolo is compared to regular power banks, this 27% discount is still great.

I have the 20,000mAh version of the Anker Zolo and it’s easily my top pick power bank for taking along to concerts and on day trips. It’s small enough to pocket, it comes with a built-in 5.4-inch USB-C cable for convenience, and that cable doubles as a carrying strap when not in use. This means you won’t have to carry a separate charging cable in your bag, and you won’t even have to carry a bag at all if you hook it up to a belt loop, for instance. Great for commuting around a city, too.

This Anker Zolo can deliver 30W of power, taking your phone to 50% battery in less than half an hour. And with 10,000mAh of capacity, it can deliver about two full charges for a typical smartphone. Using the extra USB-C port, you can also charge a second device at the same time as long as you have a separate cable with it.

If all you need is basic fast charging, if convenience is a top priority, and if you don’t need a power bank that’s laptop-capable, then the Anker Zolo is one of the smartest picks out there.
