The Xiaomi 3-in-1 Power Bank 5000 33W has been released in China. Available in four metallic colorways, this compact accessory can charge devices via an integrated USB-C cable and a USB-C port. Plus, folding pins allow the device to act as a charger, delivering an up to 33W output.

I really wish power bank and dock OEMs would stop integrating cables into their devices or at least do it in a way that makes it possible to remove them. It makes the devices really hard to stow in a tech bag and the point where the cable joins to the case is where they inevitably break.

Worse, now you're carrying a cable that's dedicated to one and only one device.
