It's a heavy unit for sure, you'll feel it. But - it's solid. Still small enough to fit into a messenger bag.
If you know your USB-C PD stuff, this unit will output up to 28V/5A (140W) from a single port, or do 20V/5A (100W) for two ports. I tested the 20V/5A output with a heavy load that had power impulses far above 5A (but still 5A average) and this power bank did totally fine, which was impressive.
Display animations are very cute yet not over the top. Info is useful. The screen is fairly dim and brightness isn't adjustable, so you probably won't be able to read the status in direct sunlight. The upside is that it won't blind you at night. The power charts are neat, but the CPU that drives them seems to sleep after the unit is running for a little while, so when you check the charts after a while, they're all reset.
It will do passthrough charging, so you can charge this bank with let's say a less capable charger (up to 65W with this device) while the bank supplies let's say 140W to your device. It will still deplete, but slower, since you're helping it with another charger. Definitely nice feature to have.
This power bank can only be charged at 65W so that could be a deal breaker for some people. On the other hand, the lower charge rate will preserve its battery health better in the long run.
Overall, excellent value for money. Happy to have it.
