Long gone are the days when phone battery can sustain the use for weeks and with software updates, excessive background activity draining the battery, I had to reach for a power bank when I'm on holidays or even a long day out.
Gifted by my friend, I have been enjoying using the, which comes with a built-in foldable USB-C connector that makes it perfect to fit in my micro bags. Originally listed at a RRP of £29.99, Amazon has currently reduced it to £19.99 in a limited time deal.
