Portable Charger for iPhone SE 2021

What is the best portable charger for iPhone SE 128GB purchased new from Apple in 2021? Need it for when I'm not home walking outside and nowhere near a place to plug with my cable and lightening plug.

I need to have my iPhone fully charged for emergencies (health reasons).

iPhone SE, iOS 18

Given you’re on an 2020 "2nd Generation" iPhone SE, you don’t get MagSafe—only Qi wireless up to 7.5 W—so for emergencies I’d avoid wireless (inefficient) and stick to a compact power bank + short Lightning cable. For that, I would suggest something like the Anker Nano Power Bank. It’s tiny enough for a coat pocket and purpose-built for iPhone.


If you need more power than that, then you may want to consider either the Belkin BoostCharge Power Bank 10K, or the Anker 323 / PowerCore 10K.
