    This compact power bank from Jackery is probably one of the most unique designs I've ever tried. Most power banks function in basically the same way: they have one or more USB ports, and you plug a cable from there into your device via a micro-USB. But this power bank from Jackery has two charges built right into the box, which are permanently attached and cannot be removed. One for Android devices, and the other for Apple devices. It also has a flashlight, another unique feature!

    As well as being able to charge Android and Apple devices at the same time, you can also plug a cable into the USB slot to charge a third device at the same time, which is a first for any of the power banks I've used. This power bank holds 6,000 mAh, which is enough to charge most smartphones multiple times to 100% in one charge. I found the charging speed to be very good, and equivalent to any of my fastest charging options.

    The only downside to this unique design is that it limits the manoeuvrability of the power bank. The arms come down from the left and right side, and so the power bank has to sit next to your devices. This makes it pretty hard to charge on the go, and impossible to use in a small bag or in your pocket. It's fine when at home or work, but not a great option for travelling. On the flip side, it is very small and extremely light, so if you do take it with you on the go, you'll barely notice the extra weight.
