The latest hi-res image of Anker's 25,000mAh Zolo power bank confirms its 165W output and dual inbuilt USB-C cables, one of which is retractable. The power bank features a digital display for battery status and includes one USB-A port and one other USB-C port, likely enabling 4-device simultaneous charging.

Anker’s Zolo Power Bank 25K (model A1695) has made another appearance following an earlier leak that showed a blurry image of the device. The previous leak had speculations regarding the power bank's retractable USB-C cables and digital display, suggesting it might work similarly to Anker's 647 Conference Charging Station (currently $69.99 on Amazon, with coupon), which has a pull-to-unfurl mechanism. This new image now gives us a clearer look at the portable charger, confirming some of the earlier rumors about its 25,000 mAh capacity and 165W maximum output.

With its dimensions of 15.7 x 5.38 x 4.88 cm and weighing 555g, it is substantially bulkier than Anker's slimmer models, like the MagGo 6.6K (currently $29.99 on Amazon with coupon), but its capacity far exceeds them. At the same time, it is still 75 grams lighter (and has an extra 1000 mAh capacity) than Anker's 737 24K Power Bank (priced at $109.99 on Amazon), which weighs a hefty 630g. The lanyard cable clip on the Zolo Power Bank 25K also adds portability. Not having to carry a USB-C cable alongside a big power bank could be a boon to some. Furthermore, the design confirms not one, but two cables: the retractable one at the top and a second cable integrated into the lanyard clip on the side. The power bank also includes a USB-A port and another USB-C port, likely enabling 4-device simultaneous charging - though this hasn't been mentioned explicitly.

The new image also clearly shows the digital display on the front, adding weight to the previous leak's claim about monitoring battery life. While exact outputs for each port and cable remain unknown, this follow-up leak cements key features of Anker's upcoming power bank while filling in some design details left vague by the initial report. The text '165W' on the power bank's side appeared to be gray and muted in the original blurry picture, whereas the new, more polished image showcases it in a cyan-like hue, making it stand out against the slate shade of the portable charger.

We can expect an official announcement from the company regarding the Anker Zolo Power Bank 25K in the coming days. In the meanwhile, check out these other high-capacity power banks from the company, like the 20,000 mAh Anker Zolo Power Bank that has 30 watts of output, available for $28.79 at Amazon
