- Lenovo launches 100W compact power bank with 10000mAh capacity
- Lenovo Legion P5 10000 supports phones, laptops and tablets through multiple charging ports simultaneously
- Low power mode supports earphones and wearables for safe charging
Lenovo has announced a new Legion-branded power bank with a capacity of 10,000 mAh – although many fans may be disappointed that they can’t get their hands on one.
The company says the P5 10000 can provide long-lasting battery life for smartphones, computers, tablets and other gadgets that people use every day.
The power bank supports up to 100W high power with smart dynamic power distribution for flexible charging and discharging.
Built for high and low current devices
The power bank includes a built-in Type-C cable along with a USB-C port and a USB-A connection for external accessories.
A small circular display appears on the front panel, although Lenovo has not explained all the functions supported by the display.
The device has a cool mech-style exterior with a compact and lightweight construction, making it easy to carry while traveling or commuting.
The device can charge PCs and handheld game consoles as a one-device solution for worry-free battery life, but we wouldn’t recommend it.
Considering the battery capacity, the device is more suitable for low power consumption devices such as smartwatches and earphones with its low current charging function.
Users only need to press and hold the power button for 3 seconds to activate the low power mode.
In addition to Lenovo’s fast charging protocol, this device also supports fast charging protocols from Huawei and Apple.
The Legion P5 10000 has a 3C certification, which means it’s supposedly safe to take on planes and trains.
But there is no product page available to confirm any of these technical details for public review.
Availability, prices and alternatives
The Lenovo P5 10000 portable powerhouse will officially hit the shelves on May 19, and it will retail for CNY 169, which is roughly $25 or €21.
At the time of writing, this device has been listed on JD.com, a Chinese online retail platform.
Unfortunately, there is no information on the global release of this device, so you probably won’t be able to buy it unless you have links to China.
If you live in the western world and need a Lenovo power bank, you can get the Lenovo Go USB-C laptop power bank, but this device costs $140.
It is a 20,000 mAh power bank that supports up to 65W fast charging, making it more suitable for large battery devices such as laptops and handheld game consoles.
This device can also power up to three devices simultaneously while staying cool under load.
Although it is more expensive than the P5 10000, it offers more capacity and thus more options.
