Which should you buy, Anker MagGo Power Bank 10K Slim A1664 or Goal Zero Venture 30?
The Anker MagGo Power Bank 10K Slim A1664 is the one to take for MagSafe iPhone users wanting a no-frills slim magnetic bank, though it is not the pick for users wanting a kickstand or display and Android users without a Qi2 case. The Goal Zero Venture 30 suits backcountry hiking and kayaking trips and pairing with a Goal Zero solar panel for multi-day treks, though it is the wrong buy for charging laptops or other high-wattage devices and anyone wanting max capacity per dollar. Our rating of the Goal Zero Venture 30 (8.2/10): the power bank we'd actually trust in a kayak or a rain-soaked backcountry pack.
