Power banks act as external portable batteries for charging cell phones and other mobile devices. They act as perfect supplements to batteries. Power banks are ideal for long-distance travel. They charge most types of smartphones and one only needs to have the right cable. Consider the weight, size, and capacity when shopping for a power bank. High-capacity power banks are heavier and larger compared to those with fewer capacities. Go for a lightweight and small unit for use in daily commutes and bulkier models for long work or camping trips.
Choosing the right cell phone battery for a smartphone

A refurbished original equipment manufacturer (OEM) cell phone battery has features that promote safe discharging and charging. Look for clean and tested refurbished phone batteries from trusted retailers. Good refurbished batteries save money. Control the discharge rates, percentage drained between cycles, and temperature to ensure the battery lasts longer.

Most modern cell phones use lithium-polymer or lithium-ion batteries. Cell phone batteries that use lithium cells outperform the nickel-metal hydride and nickel-cadmium batteries that are common in old cell phones. Batteries with lithium cells are not vulnerable to memory effect and have high capacities. Lithium-ion phone batteries have a long life span and can deep cycle when maintaining power. A one-time purchase of lithium batteries ensures longevity since they do not require any active maintenance. They are also nonhazardous, safe, and tolerant of temperature.
Can third-party cell phone batteries replace OEM ones?

Third-party batteries are the only option for other phone models. Check product details when buying mobile phone batteries and only go for those made by well-reviewed and reputable brands. Ensure that the capacity and voltage of a third-party phone battery match those of the original battery before buying it.
