Portable power bank for iPhone 13

[Anonymous]

I have bought two portable, slim power banks for travel in the past week - both were advertised as “compatible with iPhone 12/13.” In each case, the plug does NOT fit my iPhone 13.

Can someone recommend one that will fit? It’s baffling to me that these can be described as compatible when they aren’t. TIA.

Sounds like you just need a compatible power cord, not a new power bank.
-this is assuming that your bank’s cords are plug in instead of built in.

Most new devices today use USB-C cords instead of the traditional Apple Lightening cord, which is what your iPhone 13 uses.

Apple & Amazon sell the cord you need. I’m guessing you may need USB-C to plug into your power bank and Lightening connector at the other end to plug into your iPhone 13.

+1. You can find any version of the power cord needed on amazon cheap if you don't have one. The don't usually come with the cord that connects to your phone - just a cord for charging the power bank itself

Thanks, PPs! You were right and I got a lightening connector. Just wish this had been mentioned in the description, but it's all good now.
