Questions and answers
- Which one charges a laptop?
- The Wukong edition. Its USB-C ports deliver up to 140W each, enough for most USB-C laptops. The Prime tops out at 65W total, which suits phones, tablets and small laptops only.
- Which has more battery capacity?
- The Wukong edition, at 20,000mAh versus 9,600mAh for the Prime. Expect roughly two to three times as many phone charges from the Wukong.
- Which is easier to carry?
- The Prime. It weighs 600 g and is slimmer. The Wukong is 520 g but chunkier at about 5.8 × 2 × 1.8 in.
- Is the Wukong worth the extra money?
- Yes if you charge a laptop or need many charges between outlets. If you only top up a phone on day trips, the Prime covers it for less.
- Can both go in a carry-on?
- The Prime is listed as flight-approved. The Wukong's 20,000mAh (about 74Wh) is under the common 100Wh airline limit, but confirm with your airline.
