When it comes to power banks that can juice up laptops on the move, the options nowadays are as abundant as sand on a beach. However, finding one that does not feature a bulky, cuboidal form factor is a tedious task. For people who prefer power banks as slim as a tablet, the Baseus Blade 2 ultra-slim power bank is a decent choice, which is now available for a record-low price on Amazon, at just $32.49 with a coupon.
First and foremost, the Baseus Blade 2 power bank, as the name suggests, is impressively thin. Measuring 5.2 inches x 6.36 inches (13.21 x 16.15 cm) with a thickness of just 0.4 inches (10.2 mm), the Blade 2 is certainly on the larger side, but its ultra-slim profile makes carrying it around in a backpack an absolute delight. The finest part, the device can even fit into a laptop sleeve rather effortlessly - a feat that is nigh inconceivable for typical power banks.
However, the Baseus Blade 2 does have its fair share of downsides. At just 12,000 mAh, the device is hardly the most capacity-rich in town. In fact, as Xda-developers' review points out, the device barely manages to charge up a 13-inch MacBook Air to around 46%. Its 65-watt output is also rather slow by laptop standards, and as such, the Blade 2 will be far better suited for tablets and smartphones, as well as other smaller USB-C gadgets, of course.
That said, at the current sale price of just $32.49 (be sure to select the coupon), the Baseus Blade 2 undoubtedly offers excellent value for those who desire an ultra-slim power bank that can give them some much-needed extra screen time on the go.
