iPhone 7 Plus comes with a large battery capacity of 2900 mAh. Although the battery capacity is higher than earlier iPhones, it also gets drained faster due to the larger screen. This makes a portable charger for your iPhone 7 Plus a must have. The large battery also takes ages to charge with the default Apple iPhone 7 Plus 5-watt charger. As iPhone 7 Plus can charge at twice the speed (12-watt), all our recommended power banks support fastest charging 12-watt mode for iPhone 7 Plus.

Here are our picks as the best power banks for iPhone 7 Plus.

Best Future-Ready Fast-Charging Portable Charger for iPhone 7 Plus (18-watt USB-C PD)

Anker PowerCore Slim 10000 PD

Anker PowerCore Slim 10000 PD is our pick as the best future-ready fast-charging USB-C PD portable charger for iPhone 7 Plus.

The power bank will also fast charge the latest iPhone 13/12/11 etc.  and the latest Android phones as it supports 18-watt USB-C PD.

This portable charger has two charging ports – one USB-C PD port and one regular USB port. This allows PowerCore Slim 10000 PD  to charge both latest and older iPhones at fastest speeds. For example, it will charge fast-charge new iPhone 13/12 series, 11, 11 Pro/Max, XR/SE 2020/XS/Max/X/8/8+ at 18-watts from the USB-C port and charge older iPhones such as iPhone 7 Plus, 7, or 6s at fastest possible 10/12 watt speed from the regular USB port.
