Belkin power banks plummet in price for travel season - our tech writer picks best deals

Belkin makes some of the most popular gadgets, with power banks and wireless chargers amongst the top accessories for phone owners. Alongside the huge Prime Day sales that Amazon has been hosting, Belkin also has discounts on many of its power banks.

But choose your store wisely, as in some cases Argos beats Amazon, in others Amazon has the lowest price. Belkin is also offering many discounts directly.

I've been trawling through the deals to pick out some of the best offers on power banks and help you get the best price. Some of these sales will end today, so don't hang around if you want a power bank for your summer hols.

This is a great option for iPhone owners, with a huge 10,000mAh battery which will recharge your iPhone twice. MagSafe means you can slap it on the back of your phone, or you can connect via cable if you want to charge another device.

It even has a stand on the back, so if you want to prop your phone up to watch a video, that's easy too. iPhone owners using MagSafe will get up to 15W charging, but you can also connect a USB-C cable to charge other devices.

Argos is offering the best deal here, but you'll have to use the code BELKIN50 at checkout so it's only £44.94. Amazon is also offering this MagSafe charger for £63.99, with only a £16 saving.

This is a bone fide Prime Day Deal, with Amazon offering this 10,000mAh power bank with integrated cable at a 44% discount. That brings the price down to £13.99, which is great for a power bank that will charge your phone a couple of times.

There's an LED display so you can see how much charge is remaining, while it offers 20W power, meaning it will fast charge plenty of devices. It will charge two devices at 15W simultaneously, and you can also power up devices while charging the power bank itself.

Belkin is offering a discount on this model, but it comes out at £14.99 direct from Belkin, so buy it from Amazon and save yourself an extra quid.

This one is a little painful. The 5,000mAh version of the Belkin BoostCharge is really popular because it's a MagSafe power bank. But at half the capacity of the model listed above, it's slimmer and lighter and easier to slip into your bag to carry around with you, a positive to the downside of it not having as much oomph.

The good news is that most stores are selling it for around the same discounted price. You can get it from Belkin for £22.99 (down from £29.99), you can get it from Amazon for £22.49, meanwhile Argos is offering 20% off, which brings it out to £23.99 with code BELKIN20.

The painful part of the news is that this isn't the lowest price it's been offered at: it was £16.09 on Amazon just recently, so you've missed your chance for the best deal here.

This power bank has a digital display so you can see how much charge it has, as well as offering a couple of connections to plug devices in. Best of all, it offers 20W charging, so it's faster than some rival devices. It will even charge two devices at 15W at the same time.

With a 10,000mAh capacity, it will recharge your phone a couple of times, or it can charge a full range of other devices. This compact power bank is ideal for travel.

This is a pretty new power bank, and while Belkin is offering up to 20% off the price, I prefer the straightforward offering from Argos (at £22.50 with code BELKIN10) or from Amazon at £22.49 once you claim the £2.50 voucher. It's not a huge saving over the normal £24.99 price, but it's a good power bank.

Belkin isn't the only option when it comes to power banks, with Anker also offering some compelling deals in the Prime Day sales. If you're after something compact, then the PowerCore 20,000mAh is a great option. It doesn't have a fancy display on it, but it offers a couple of USB connections for charging. Discounted to £24.89 on Amazon, it's a great alternative to the Belkin power banks above.

But if you want to go all-out, there's something much more exciting to consider. Anker also has a power bank that's designed for laptops. This is quite a bit larger than your typical power bank, so size is a negative point to flag, but it packs in a massive 25,000mAh, and it has 100W power. That means it will charge everything, including your laptop.

The Anker Laptop Power Bank normally costs £89.99, but it's reduced to £65.99 on Amazon, which is the lowest price that it's been so far. Whatever your charging needs, there's likely something out there for you
