After Xiaomi , OnePlus, and Asus,
Microsoft on Wednesday launched a se
of three power banks with 5200mAh,
9000mAh, and 12000mAh battery
capacities in the accessory market. The
Microsoft Portable Dual Chargers will
arrive in select regions in the "next few
weeks" with an estimated retail price of
$35 (roughly Rs. 2,200), $45 (roughly
Rs. 2,900) and $55 (roughly Rs. 3,500)
respectively.
The Microsoft Portable Dual Chargers
sport the same "pocketable" shape like
Xiaomi Mi Power Banks but are availabl
in Black colour variant only. While the
three portable chargers measure the
same 100mm and 25mm in width and
thickness respectively, they differ in
length and weight based on different
battery capacity versions. While the
5200mAh variant weighs 141 grams an
is 50mm long, the 9000mAh and
12000mAh versions weigh 215 grams
and 275 grams and are 68.5mm and
87mm long, respectively.
"While bigger in capacity and also
physical size, these two are still portabl
and can easily be slipped into your bag
your glovebox, or in your tent while you
prepare your smores," said Adam Fraser
on the Lumia Conversation blog post.
As the name suggests, the power banks
house two USB ports, letting users char
two devices at a time and are said to
hold their charge for months at a
time.The Microsoft Portable Dual
Chargers have 5V - 1.5A input and offe
5V - 2.1A output. Furthermore, in case
users need to charge both the handset
and the portable charger simultaneousl
they can make use of the 'daisy-chain'
feature, in which they would need to
plugin the power bank to a source and
then the handset with the power bank.
Microsoft claims the power banks can
also charge the smartphones and table
as quickly as the company's AC-60 wall
charger accessory. Like most of the oth
power banks in the market, the Microso
Portable Dual Chargers feature four LED
lights for indicating the power left in th
device.The company has also announc
a competition to win the power bank, fo
which more details are available on the
blog post.
