Hello guys, after several months of waiting, my Xiaomi 20000mAh Powerbank finally arrived yesterday, and I'm going to give it a review very soon.

Please, to ensure the accuracy of this review, I would really want to put it to use very well. So be patient for the full review. But if you have any question, or an area you want me to include in the review, please let me know here.

The full review will be available on https://www.droidafrica.net/ when I'm done.

I had their 10000mah powerbank but I couldn't charge my tablet properly, any device that needed increased power supply to charge properly was a problem.

So test this with different kinds of devices to check it's compatibility.

I don't think so. I've already commenced my observations, and the charging time is one of my priority. I'll give my final observations when I'm done.

the charger whats the amp and current rating? Thats what would determine.. I have the 10400mah xiaomi power bank.
Modified:

Oh they dont include charger..with a 2amp charger your looking at 6hours to fill that up.. Try a 4amp charger if you can find one.

No need to buy power bank that spoil batteries, just get a phone that had power bank in it

great product Xiaomi, still rocking d 10400mAh, but wouldn't mind this one. how much? where?

Good advice... I don't know why people are still buying power banks when there are phones like Gionee m5 and TECNO L5.

So, you think most people like those underperforming things that has just battery as selling point?

Friends.... Don't worry, I know there are many questions here already, I'll reply all of them soon. in fact, the review will go online sooner than I thought. so please stay with us on www.droidafrica.com

You're on point

People buy Powerbanks for the following reasons:

1. Techno L5 and Gionee M5 are both ugly
2. Power is not equally supplied throughout the country
3. Gionee M5 and etc might try, but it not got more than 6000mAh battery
4. Some guys are extreme smartphone users. I exhaust my Gionee M3's 5000mAh within 7-8 Hours.
5. Above all, classic smartphone users are not really fans of bricks

The bottom line is, everyone has his reasons for whatever he/she does, and no one can stop'em

You've not answered the most important question that was asked here... How much did you buy it and at where?

What is capacity of the charger you are using to charge it? I am using Xiami 10000mah, initially, I was using my android charger that was rated 5v 1A to charge it. It was charging more than 12hours without being full. I was worried because it was stated 5-6hours to full from 0% to 100%. I have to do research why it was not charging and I discovered that it was stated that charger that is rated 2Amp, 5V. I have to try my tablet charger that is rated 5V, 2Amp behold I happy on the speed of charging. Within 5 to 6 hours is already full from 0%. It is advisable you use Samsung galaxy or Ipad, or even tablet charger that is rated 2Amp, 5V to charge.

I used the 2amp cable that came with my tablet, but my 3000mah tablet never charged more than 15% before the 10400mah powerbank was completely drained.

Around N283 or so.... I really can't remember. I bought few things online that same period, and I'm not really sure of the exchange rate.

I've already carried tablet charging test. I was able to charge the Techno 7c (3000mAh battery) from 3% to 100% within 2 hours 52m, Although tablet was on but untouched.

I powered my old Gionee Marathon M3 from 0% to 100% within 5 hours or there about (I was actually taking an early evening nap when it got filled, so I'm not sure.

The good news is, the power bank was 100% when I started with the Techno 7c tablet, but to my amazement, after charging the slate till 100%, the Powerbank was still having it full 4 LED lights.

I've tried it with the older Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, and it was pushing in current pretty well... more details to come soon on www.droidafrica.com

Oh! It means you did not buy original. My 10000mah charge my 1900mah android battery up to 5 times.

EUGENE4GOO:

That could be true considering my current experience with the 20000mAh Xiaomi Powerbank.

So, you think most people like those underperforming things that has just battery as selling point?

Even the power banks also underperform. Some will even spoil your battery... You want to pretend you don't know this? I've been using power banks for over 2 years now, so I know what I'm saying. Meanwhile, Have you used Gionee m5 or TECNO L5 before? Who told you they underperform? Check their threads and see review from users before you say what you don't know.

Are you talking about the tecno L5?
