Which should you buy, Anker 313 Power Bank or EcoFlow RIVER 2?

The Anker 313 Power Bank is the one to take for budget buyers and ultra-slim everyday carry, though it is not the pick for fast-charging modern phones and laptop charging. The EcoFlow RIVER 2 suits frequent outages where fast top-ups matter and content creators cycling gear between shoots, though it is the wrong buy for ultra-budget buyers (X-Stream tech carries a price premium) and pure USB-only charging needs with no AC device to run. It is the wrong buy for users without access to a standard AC wall outlet for recharging. Our rating of the EcoFlow RIVER 2 (8.6/10): best pick for anyone who drains and refills a power station multiple times a day and can't wait around for it to charge.
