Power banks will definitely have a long term damaging effect on your phone's batteries, though the damages can be negligible. A case study is this, a friend bought Infinix Hot Note exactly by March last year while I bought mine June last year, although I am a 3 times more voracious user of my device than him, which is also a big factor to consider. Aside that,

Now, he never used Power Banks on his, while I bought mine together with a power bank and from day 1, I have always used power banks on my device whenever I am not charging through direct power supply.

And here are the outcome;

My friend phone's battery is still solid presently and have not really shown any serious sign of weakness but mine on the other hand started giving me sleepless night just at the beginning of this month that made it exactly 1 year I purchased it.

My battery has become so weak that I will now have to watch the battery drain to empty in just 2hours of usage after a full charge.

In fact I have just placed order for a new replacement battery for my device before it gives me HBP.

The damaging effect of power banks is mostly as result of this: you know power banks are made of cells, and long time usage of the power banks will definitely make the cells to grow weaker and the steady state voltage supply and current coming out from the power bank to the phone while charging the phone with power banks will be weak on its part and will not be perfectly suitable for your phones battery, even if it charges your phone to full battery percentage, it is still weak voltage.

Have you ever wondered why your phone battery last longer after charging it with direct power supply but drains faster on usage immediately after you finish charging it with power banks?

As time goes on this weak voltage from the power bank also weakens your phone battery and cut short it's life span.

But this is Naija, how man go do na, if you don't augment your phone charging with power banks, your phone might likely keep you offline most of the times

Your phone battery is weak because of constant charging and discharging and recharging.
Has nothing to do with the power bank

can't say with certainty, but what i can say with certainty is never let your first charge of a new phone be with a Power bank.

I don't like the stress of carrying a power bank around, so I have never bought one.

You tried this is trial and error experiment....

Power banks are power source just like any other charger..

Facts here: battery life is determine by its number of cycles that is the number if times it is recharged from 0 to 100...

This varies some have 1000 cycles, another may be 1200 or even lower..

Here it shows that the have execeeded the battery life cycle where as your friend charge may have been charging thrice a week...


I agree with you, maybe the guy charges his phone battery more often.

I bought my Gionee M2 together with power bank of 15000mah November 2014, till date I have never experienced drainage of power on my phone battery charging it with the power bank.

just last night I charged my phone with my power bank from 32% to gained me 92% within 1hr 45mims before unplugging it, I browse with it till 12.45am before sleeping and I woke up to meet it at 85%

When you buy a 50,000mah powerbank for 3000,damage to phone battery is definitely inevitable.Good power banks like anker,xiaomi and lumsing do not weaken phone batteries.But again,how many persons can afford to buy a 10000mah powerbank for 5k upwards with this prevailing economic hardship?I got xiaomi 10000mah powerbank from a guy here for 4500 and its very good!
You know what? Oraimo rules the world of power banks.for a start get Oraimo 10PB-AR with 10,400MAH and a digital display of percentage and power bar capacity.you will marvel

And someone just gifted me this powerbank after returning from China... If I tell you how much he bought it after converting Yuan to Naira, you'd weep for this country.

A friend who picked up the power bank on my behalf is already asking how much I'm going to sell.

Re: Do Powerbanks Damage Phone Batteries? by JohnLou(m): 8:29am On Jun 08, 2016
Yes it does.

If the output rating of the power bank is higher than the output rating required to charge your phone.

If you over charge you phone...The power bank doesn't have fail safe for batteries.
Re: Do Powerbanks Damage Phone Batteries? by Jholland(f): 8:34am On Jun 08, 2016
Due to the poor power supply in my area that even if I get a power bank to chage it would be another problem, I decided to go get the solar power bank today before I do so, does anyone advice against it?

Thinking of purchasing a power bank for my device (2100mah) but not sure if continuous use of it would end up damaging the battery.

Re: Do Powerbanks Damage Phone Batteries? by dovoule(m): 10:17am On Jun 08, 2016
I have two batteies. The one that came the phone and another which I charge with a power bank.
I keep the Original battery away from power banks. After my terrible experience with power banks, that's the trick I embraced.

u need to unscrew every single nut on the back of your device before it can be changed. If you are not techy enough you should take it to a phone repairer or calcare but I know you will part away with N1000 or N500 for doing so


what you explained here is how to remove the battery not how to replace it; where can one get the battery? the original
