Is lithium polymer better than lithium ion? A guy on YouTube said polymer ones aren’t reliable for long usage, so they are normally cheap. I had asked the same to chatgpt but it didn’t give a clear answer
Perplexity Says almost same.
I checked for cold temperatures too and it seems Lithium-Ion is better for cold temperatures than Lithium Polymer.
the deal looks good though. I am still thinking about this
I’m only thinking if it’ll fall further after new gst rules kick in on 22nd?
Which power banks come with Lithium Ion battery, any examples?
Xaiomi 4i and others are there too.
Why did you remove this link, is there something wrong with this model:

No problem with the model. just because it came out too long. I was going to post short link but you seem to have done it now.
but having said that my opinion just buy which ever is cheaper.
There wont be much difference to be going ahead and paying almost 2.5 times more .
But if after GST cut on powerbanks, say the Lithium Ion model comes for around 1500 then would you still suggest going for the 700 priced lithium polymer model.
Ofcourse.
Lithium -Ion is better no doubt but most powerbanks with Lithium Polymer is also performing well. Read reviews.
This is mostly a kind of device that has between 150-300 recharge cycles and then mostly you just discard it.
So why spent so much unnecessary when almost half the price you are getting that does the job for about 1- 2 years for you.
What about reliability even within warranty period of 1 year? I have seen many reviews where powerbank required warranty service. This makes a difference in getting cheaper ones vs a bit more priced ones as even if warranty is successfully availed there is still the extra hassle involved.
I agree to this point.
Look that is why brands like Xiaomi is more better quality control.
And you should go for it if you do not want unnecessary chance.
However, my own experience with brands like Anker has not been good.
So I try to see if my price is really good and worth taking the risk and then go for it.
So there is bit of chance taking here . Even more so when brand is lesser known like Urbn and protronics .
Personally, If i could spare extra money . I would go for better brand like Xiaomi but since I am saving almost Rs 1000 then It is worth to take a chance in my books.
I buy anything Duracell only.
Here is one of its Powerbanks:

Duracell is almost never on sale but I have read good reviews for them too.
I placed an order for the spigen via the amazon link because personally I don’t trust jholkart. In the reviews the spigen unit gives fast charging for samsung and I own a s23
