ASUS power bank line — ZenPower — has three new variants with their own respective updated features from the predecessor.
First off is the ZenPower Combo which has a built-in adapter for recharging the cell, a retractable cable that supports Quick Charge 2.0 with high-speed 18W output, and a second full-size USB for connecting more devices. Capacity is still at 10050mAh.
Next is the ZenPower Pro which is more of a direct successor to the popular 10500mAh power bank of ASUS. With the ‘Pro’, you now get 2 ports instead one for simultaneous charging and thankfully, it’s not just an additional port. The second full-size USB port supports Quick Charge 2.0 with an 18W output or 2x the charging speed. An additional LED flashlight is also onboard.
Lastly and the biggest of the three is ZenPower Ultra. With the ‘Ultra’, you don’t just get twice the ports but also twice the capacity at 20100mAh. Also, both of the full-size USB ports support Quick Charge 2.0. And, charging the ‘Ultra’ will also benefit from the quick charging tech. ASUS also threw in an LED flashlight to top it all.
No details yet regarding the availability and pricing of the new ZenPowers but we expect them to arrive in the Philippine market anytime soon.
I’ve read that the Pro variant goes for 799 Yuan. 1 Yuan = 7 PhP. That means it costs P5600!
Quick question, for Zenpower Ultra, if it’s ports supports fast charging. Is it not safe to charge a device that doesn’t support fast charging on it? Thinking of buying Zenpower Ultra cuz I am a Zenfone5 owner. Thanks in advance.
it will just draw power according to the device attached to it. a “quick charge” port simply means it can give a higher amp output and those devices with quick charge feature can utilize that current draw. if you try to connect phones without quick charge on those ports they will charge normally, it will just draw lower amps from that port.
“you don’t just twice the ports” and “you now get 2 ports instead one for simultaneous charging and thankfully, it’s not an additional port.”
What on earth are you talking about?
also got confused with that one.
i see now the extra built in cable on the bottom which act as a charging cable.
