If your phone supports Qualcomm Quick Charge then this below is hands down the best battery bank, it also appears to supports Qualcomm Quick Charge when charging the bank itself
Romoss Sense X 10000mAh Power Bank - currently R429 which is the cheapest Ive seen it:

And to complete the circle the Qualcomm Quick Charge car charger, but no stock at the moment:

Have them both! They work great, although when it comes to the car charger I would recommend the BaseUs model instead of the Romoss, as it has two Quick Charge ports instead of Romoss's one and has a dimmer white light instead of Romoss's blue.

Problem with higher capacity powerbanks is that they can get quite bulky. If you not carrying it around a lot then I suppose it is fine

Only the black one seems to support quick charge?

2 would be better, do you have a link to that one please?
 
Something that irritates me about my romoss is it auto turns off after a couple minutes when charging something small like a Bluetooth headset or a smart watch etc.

Xiaomi offers a way to force a 2 hour charge for this scenario by double pressing the power button.
 
My Romoss that I won from MYBB didn't charge anymore. Tried opening it but can't get in. It's the Solo 6

Not asked but... Just FYI.

The act of charging is not lossless, so energy is expended, whether wired or wireless, although wired is more efficient.

Lower capacity powerbanks and wireless charging might therefore deliver less charge than you need depending on your phone battery even when it is the same size battery in both phone and powerbank.

That's also why powerbanks and wireless charging power banks are not considered environmentally friendly.

We need our phones and need to stay connected.. But just saw this recently and decided to share, so, the real hardware bargain is really another cable to charge your phone at work etc rather than to charge from a powerbank when you can charge from a plug.
