Charging accessories have become so cool thanks to some healthy competition in the industry. But I’m not going to lie, Anker and UGREEN in particular have been slaying hard. Both brands make very high-quality gear, but Anker’s style focuses on aesthetics whereas UGREEN has taken a more unique approach — adding adorable faces to its already sleek-looking accessories.

I test a new power bank or charger every week, more than one most weeks in fact. At one point, everything starts to blend into one, which is why differentiation like this is so important to keep things fresh.
