19000 PD: FRESH
DESIGN AND NEW
FEATURES MAKE THIS
BATTERY PACK VERY
APPEALING
BY JASON CIPRIANIIMAGE: ANKERBattery packs have become commonplace.
These small power banks are easy to carry
and make it possible to top off a phone or
tablet—and more recently with the addition
of Power Delivery (PD) capabilities, a laptop
even—while on the go.
Anker’s PowerCore+ 19000 has a
slightly tweaked design, departing from
the standard black brick. The PowerCore+
19000 features a two-tone aesthetic,
consisting of a space-gray top and a
matte-black bottom. Its corners are
rounded. It looks nicer than older Anker
packs, and I hope the company sticks with
the new design going forward.
There are three ports on the front: one
USB-C and two full-sized USB, along with a
power button. On top is a circular charge
indicator, made up of 11 dots.The Latest Mac Products
