Hello guys.

So i need a power bank for my zenfone 5. was looking for xiaomi ones but OOS everywhere.
Was specifically looking for 5200 models. I only heard about the xiaomi models and don't know much about other brands.
Any suggestions guys for a bank which is reliable and economical.

You can check paytm.
They have power bank deals going on now.

I bought Anker 10400 mah(700 rs after cash back offer ) and eveready 5200 mah .(990 rs )
Unfortunately the eveready was defective but I had to return it.

Takes longer to deliver than Flipkart, Amazon etc.
Anker unit is working well for now.

dont go for anything else just stick to Mi 5200mah powerbank for 600
i have 2 of the 10400mah ones and im very satisfied after numerous poorly made powerbanks from sony,samsung and local/chinese brands

My Mi 10400 mAh powerbank died and flipkart refunded the amount (even though it was past refund period) as a replacement wasn't available. At the moment, I'm not having any other powerbank.

I have not heard good things about the other brands. Xiaomi ones are trustable but OOS everywhere.Cannot find a single place where its in stock.
Flipkart is the only site which i can trust. Others are not trustworthy.

Any alternative to the xiaomi ones.

Xiaomi is still better than others but not at all what you can consider the best.
I use this for the best result Amazon.com: KMASHI 10000mAh MP816 (2.1Amp+1Amp Output,2Amp Input Fast Charging) Dual USB Portable External Extended Battery Pack Power Bank Backup Charger For iPhone 6 Plus 5S 5C 5 4S 4 iPad Air Retina Mini Samsung Galaxy S5 I9600 Neo S4 I9500 I9190
