Iniu 5,000mAh power bank for Apple Watch reviewed

Zdnet reports the Iniu 5,000mAh power bank includes a built-in Apple Watch wireless charging pad, a short built-in USB-C cable, two USB-C ports, and a nylon webbing loop with a split ring for clipping to a bag or keychain.

The unit's 5,000mAh/18Wh capacity is said to provide about 50–90% of a modern iPhone top-up and roughly six Apple Watch recharges; it measures 3.2 x 1.5 x 1.1 inches and weighs 4.1 ounces. It can also wirelessly charge AirPods with a compatible case, includes a monochrome LED display showing charge state, supports up to 20W input and 15W output, allows the wireless pad and both USB-C outlets to be used simultaneously to a combined 15W, and supports pass-through charging.

Zdnet's buying advice describes it as a practical option for keeping an Apple Watch charged when away from a usual charging setup and useful for hiking because it removes the need to carry an extra cable. The report lists the price at about $22, with a $22.48 listing on Amazon at the time of writing.
