Power Banks?

[mak916]

Any suggestions for a good power bank? Preferably one with fast charging.

I have this one, it charges up to the QC 3.0 standard, and it's fairly compact. (Though I've only used it twice with my S8+...)

I got the same one and I've used it a lot. Really good compact power bank.

I have the Anker 10000 power bank.

Is it quick charge 3.0?

To my understanding, the Note 8 only uses QC 2. All power banks that are QC 3 are backwards compatible, but will charge at QC 2 ON QC 2 devices. I use the 3 on my Note 4's, my Samsung Chromebook Plus, S7E and a rash of other devices. It works perfectly on all of them!

Anker PowerCore+ 20100.

Love it. Also has USB-C to USB-C compatibility.

I'm going to have to look into this. I was under the impression that the Note 8 used QC 3. Thanks for the information.

The Note is using Samsung's proprietary fast charging which is compatible up to QC 2. This I think is because Qualcomm has doesn't allow QC 3 on othee chips and Samsung wants the same thing on their Snapdragon and Exynos phones.

Bought this one a year ago, and it's been great.

I purchased the ZeroLemon ToughJuice V3.0 30000mAh Type-C/USB-C/QC 3.0 a couple of months ago. I have Androids, iphones, tablets, bluetooth speakers, and this thing charges them all, lots of times. It takes quite a while to charge form empty, but when it's ready you can charge them all. The version 3 has type-c and QC 3.0...find it on amazon

Get the Anker with Quick Charge. I've got the 10500+ and it's been an excellent spare battery pack.

I saw this one, but I thought the price was a little high on this.
