Belkin BoostCharge Pro Power Bank 10K With Apple Watch Charger
The Belkin BoostCharge Pro Power Bank 10K with Apple Watch Charger is Belkin’s latest portable charger designed for Apple users. It retails for S$179, which is S$20 more expensive than the previous generation.
You can buy it online from Shopee or Lazada, or in-store at Best Denki, Challenger, Courts, or Harvey Norman stores.
This model is effectively the successor to the Belkin BoostCharge Pro Fast Wireless Charger for Apple Watch + Power Bank 10K that I blogged about in August 2023. That product was recalled in November 2024, and this new version appears to be Belkin’s redesigned replacement.
Design
The new power bank is smaller and lighter, weighing 263g while still maintaining a 10,000mAh battery capacity. Two colors are available: Sand and Black.
The overall design retains Belkin’s rounded form factor, making it comfortable to hold and easy to carry. The rubbery texture remains the same as the previous generation, which helps with grip.
A new addition is the digital display, which shows the real-time charging status and battery level, making it easier to check how much battery is remaining quickly.
That said, I still have some concerns about how the rubber coating will hold up over time, especially in Singapore’s hot and humid climate, where rubberized finishes sometimes degrade or become sticky after prolonged use. The good news is that, based on the previous generation, it held out well for more than a year.
It retains the integrated Apple Watch charging puck, but now it can flip up so you can charge the watch in Nightstand mode, which is convenient when travelling.
There is also a built-in loop that lets you attach the power bank to your bag.
Like the Belkin BoostCharge Slim Magnetic Power Bank 5K, this power bank also has the China Compulsory Certificate (CCC) logo, so you can bring it onboard flights within China.
Integrated USB-C Cable
These days, I like devices that come with an integrated USB-C cable, as I have one less cable to carry and can eliminate the risk of forgetting a cable.
The previous model required you to bring your own cable to charge other devices. With this version, the cable is built into the power bank, so you have one less cable to carry.
In addition to the integrated cable, the power bank still includes a USB-C port, allowing you to charge two wired devices simultaneously.
You can use either the integrated cable or an external USB-C cable to charge the power bank.
Charging
The power bank supports a maximum charging output of 45W.
When charging a single-wired device, you can get the full 45W output, which is enough for fast charging smartphones, tablets, and even some lightweight laptops.
If you charge one or two wired devices together with an Apple Watch, each wired device supports up to 20W.
The built-in Apple Watch charger is Made for Watch (MFW) certified, which means it supports fast charging for compatible Apple Watch models.
Passthrough charging is supported. However, when using passthrough, the maximum output is limited to 10W for the wired device, so charging speeds will be slower.
Conclusion
The Belkin BoostCharge Pro Power Bank 10K with Apple Watch Charger improves on the previous generation with a smaller design, lighter weight, higher charging output, an integrated USB-C cable, and a digital display.
At S$179, it is not cheap for a 10,000mAh power bank. However, if you regularly travel with both an iPhone and Apple Watch, the convenience of having a power bank, Apple Watch fast charger, and USB-C cable in a single device makes it a practical all-in-one portable charging solution.
