YU JYUICE 10,000mAh Power bank Unboxing and Initial Thoughts.

Now Available via Snapdeal, 10,000mAh costs Rs.1099 while the 5000mAh costs Rs.699
Remember some time back we posted that YU might be launching the  power banks with 5,000mAh and 10,000mAh capacities? Well, if you have forgotten here is the link to the article.The company has launched the YUNIQUE smartphone couple of days ago and as a part of the launch the company officials has held a separate meet in Hyderabad and we were also a part of that so we got hold of the YU JYUICE 10,000mAh power bank which is not yet out nor available as of now. We will be testing out the power bank and put our piece but before that this is our unboxing and initial thoughts. 


Box Contents: Starting off with the box contents, soon after you open up the box packaging you will notice a sleek designed yet bigger is size 10,000mAh power bank under a typical cardboard type YU package. Beneath the power bank, we have the warranty card and a normal USB cable to connect any smartphone or tablet etc. 


Design: The power bank has rectangle shape to it just like any other power bank and it looks cool. On the front side as said we have the YU logo but nothing else and on the back you absolutely have nothing except for the self-declaration note and power bank model number. On the top, you can see the 10,000mAh capacity written clearly and again the model number with some other information. And on the bottom, You have 2 MicroUSB ports meaning you can charge two smartphones at any single point of time, but the Outputs to the ports vary, the primary one has 5V 2.1A OUTPUT while the second one has 5V and 1A OUTPUT. There is another port which is used to plug-in and charge the power bank and an LED indicator light which will glow in green color if it's fully charged. 






Thoughts: Design wise the YU power bank looks decent enough for our liking but what makes it from being a decent product to extraordinary is the performance. We have used the Asus ZenPower power bank and also the Mi power bank so how well can the YU perform and compete with those is the real question. We will spend our time testing the power bank and come up with the full review very soon. Till then stay tuned with us.
