Quick Take

The Anker 737 is the power bank for people who actually need power. It is the rare portable battery that can fast charge a 16 inch MacBook Pro while topping up a phone, and the smart display ends all guesswork about remaining juice. At $149.99 it is expensive, but nothing else does this job as well.

What We Like

  • 140W USB C output charges a 16 inch MacBook at full speed
  • Smart display shows percentage, wattage, and time remaining
  • 24,000mAh capacity stays under airline 100Wh limits
  • Three ports charge laptop, phone, and earbuds at once

What We Don’t Like

  • Heavy at 1.4 pounds, not a pocket bank
  • $149.99 is serious money for a power bank
  • No wall charger included in the box
  • Overkill if you only charge a phone

Full Review

Quality

The 737 packs a 24,000mAh battery with Power Delivery 3.1 and GaNPrime circuitry into a brick measuring about 6 by 2 by 2 inches. Two USB C ports and one USB A port share up to 140W of total output, with intelligent power distribution when all three are in use. The standout is the smart digital display: exact battery percentage, live input and output wattage, and estimated time to empty, all at a glance. It recharges itself at up to 140W too, so downtime is short.

Value

At $149.99 the 737 costs triple a basic 10,000mAh bank, but those cannot charge a laptop at all. Against rival high wattage banks it holds its own on features and display quality. It goes on sale regularly, often dipping toward $100, which is the time to pounce.

Who Should Buy It

Remote workers, travelers, and creators who need real laptop charging away from outlets.

Who Should Skip It

Phone only chargers should save money and weight with a smaller 10,000mAh bank.

FINAL VERDICT

The Anker 737 is the best high power portable charger for laptop owners. Fast, smart, and travel legal, with a display that makes every other power bank feel dumb. Heavy and pricey, but unmatched at what it does.
