Microsoft Launches Portable Dual Chargers; Starting At $35
The American tech giant, Microsoft has launched three travel-friendly battery chargers called âMicrosoft Portable Dual chargersâ for daily use. As the name suggests, the new affordable power banks have two standard USB ports for charging two devices at the same time. They are named as DC-32, DC-33 and DC-34 and have 5200 mAh, 9000 mAh, and 12000 mAh capacities, respectively. DC-32, DC-33 and DC-34 will come with a price tag of USD 35 (approx Rs 2,200), USD 45 (approx Rs 2,900), and USD 55 (approx Rs 3,500). The Microsoftâs sleek USB portable chargers will be globally available in selected markets in next few weeks with only one colour option âblack.
The power levels of the chargers are indicated by four LED indicators. The 5200 mAh power bank has pocketable shape whereas the power banks with 9000 mAh, and 12000 mAh capacities are not pocket-friendly but can easily fit in your bag or glovebox. All the three chargers with different capacities have same 100 mm width and 25 mm thickness but have different heights and weights. They charge the devices as fast as AC-60 wall charger. If your smartphone, tablet or any other gadget needs charge but the portable dual charger is out of charge. During that time âdaisy-chainâ feature can be used for charging both the device and the power bank at the same time. Moreover, these portable dual chargers will still retain up to 80% capacity if you do not use them for several months. Letâs take a brief look at the set of three power banks.
