After disappearing for a short time, Gionee is back in the market with various mobile accessories, including earphones, headphones and power bank. The company recently introduced it’s new 10000 mAH power bank ‘ Gionee PB10K1D ‘ in the Indian market with an affordable price tag and 15W quick charge 3.0A USB type C input/output port. Apart from this, there are lots of other interesting facts that I will discuss in this article, and I will also clarify whether this power bank is better than Mi Power Bank or not. But before that I want you to tell one thing is that the Gionee is now Indian own brand and this power bank is fully made In India, so unlike other power banks, this one is 100% made in India power bank.
Design & Build
At first impression, the Gionee PB10K1D won my heart with its compact size and minimalist stylish design. It’s available only in black colour, we don’t have any other colour options, but the black colour goes really good with this design and look quite attractive. The best thing about this power bank is its compact size. It’s really compact than most of the other power banks in this price range. Here I compare with my six-inches phones so you get batter idea about its size. You can easily carry this power bank in your jeans pocket, so if you are a frequent traveller then this will be the best ideal option for you.
Apart from this, I absolutely like the overall build quality of this power bank. The company use good quality plastic over here, which will definitely make this power bank to more durable. As you can see, the nice textured pattern on the top of the case, that looks really premium and eye-catchy. The outer body has matt finish, that offers some kind of rubberized soft filling which give satisfy feal while holding this power bank. So, the overall design and build quality of the Gionee PB10K1D is really good.
Now moving to the top, you will get all the functionality of this power bank. Here we have two USB output ports, one with 1.0A and another one with 2.4A fast charging support. For the input, we have standard 5V/2.0A micro USB port and near it, one USB type C port with 15W max 3.0A for input and output both. On the left side, there are small power button and four LED indicator light for battery status and remaining power check.
Performance
Now let’s talk about charging time. If you charge your 3000 mAH battery-powered phone using 2.4A fast charging port then within 1 hour 40 min your phone will be full charge. It’s the average duration and all the power bank in this price range takes the same time, including mi power bank. But if you have USB type C cable and your phone supports 3.0A fast charging, then your phone full charge within an hour. Yes, it really quick and currently this one is the only power bank in this price range comes with 15W 3.0A input/output USB type C port.
As same, if your charge this power bank using USB type C and fast charging adapter, then within 3 hours your power bank will fully charge. Using the normal micro USB cable it takes approx 4-5 hours for a full charge.
Finally, let’s talk about capacity. The Gionee PB10K1D comes with 10000 mAH lithium-polymer battery, that gives approx 6500 to 6800 mAH actual capacity. And it’s decent capacity and almost every 10000 mAH power banks deliver same capacity.
Final word
Overall, Gionee PB10K1D is really good, it comes with a nice good looking premium design, solid build quality and compact size. You will also get 3.0A USB type C port and the price tag is also very budget-friendly, which makes this power bank to the one of the best 10000 mAH power bank in this price range.
