Anker 747 vs Baseus Blade 100W

The Anker 747 PowerCore 26K and Baseus Blade 100W represent two different philosophies for portable laptop power. The Anker 747 prioritizes total stored energy — 25,600 mAh gives it a substantial capacity advantage. The Baseus Blade prioritizes per-port output speed and a lighter form factor, with each USB-C port capable of 100W. The right choice depends almost entirely on whether you need more charge or faster charge.

Capacity is the Anker 747's core strength. At 25,600 mAh, it holds roughly 28% more energy than the Baseus Blade's 20,000 mAh. On a practical level, this translates to approximately one additional full phone charge or a meaningfully longer laptop charge session before the bank runs dry. For users who spend multiple days away from outlets — camping trips, long conference runs, international travel with unreliable socket access — the Anker 747's extra headroom is a real operational difference, not just a spec on paper.

Output speed tells a different story. The Baseus Blade's USB-C ports each deliver up to 100W independently, which covers the full rated input of nearly all USB-C laptops sold today, including MacBook Pro models and high-performance Windows machines. The Anker 747's USB-C 1 port delivers 45W in standard mode and reaches 87W in a combined laptop mode that draws from both USB-C ports simultaneously. For most MacBooks (which charge at 67W or 96W), the 747's 87W peak is adequate. For users with laptops that benefit from 96W to 100W input, the Baseus Blade charges faster from the same starting battery level.

The USB-A port comparison favors the Baseus Blade significantly. Both banks ship with two USB-A ports, but the Baseus delivers 30W per port versus the Anker 747's 7.5W per port. The 7.5W output on the Anker is essentially limited to Apple Watch charging and basic trickle-charging for older accessories. Any device that supports Quick Charge or fast USB-A charging will receive dramatically faster speeds from the Baseus Blade. For users with USB-A peripherals that support faster charging, the difference between 7.5W and 30W is the difference between a 3-hour charge and a 45-minute top-up.

The airline carry-on situation is worth flagging. The Baseus Blade at 74 Wh clears the 100 Wh threshold by a comfortable margin that virtually no airline will question. The Anker 747's confirmed 94.72 Wh sits 5 Wh under the 100 Wh airline carry-on limit — legal on all major carriers, but close enough that a strict agent will flag it for manual review. If you travel through airports with rigorous enforcement, carrying the Baseus Blade's 74 Wh unit removes that friction entirely. The Baseus Blade is the cleaner choice for frequent flyers who want to avoid that friction. Weight follows the same pattern: the Baseus Blade at 1.0 lb (450 g) is meaningfully lighter than the Anker 747's 1.32 lbs (598 g), a 148 g difference that adds up over a long travel day.
