I got the new Xiaomi 10000mAh power bank, its a slim powerbank which can be charged and discharged via the Quickcharge standard.
The battery came in a typical nice paperbox with a “rub free anti counterfeit logo”. Also with the power bank came one of the nice flat 300mm long microUSB cables and a micro USB to USB type C.
I really like it this way because i only need one cable for the new and also for the older phones and stuff.
Specs and test results:
What I really like about the xiaomi power banks is the nice quality, the design and that they write the real world specs on their products.
This 10000 mAh power bank is marked as 7100mAh@5V/1A =>35.5Wh
my measurements were 7280mAh@5 V/1A&2A =>36.4Wh
Also interesting to see that they specify the battery voltage as 3.85 V (measured 4.37V when full and 3.3V on empty shutdown).
Also they specify input and output possibilities as 5V 2A; 9V 2A; 12V 1,5A also confirmed through my measurements
9 V Quick discharge 3650mAh measured Voltage 8,3V/2A =>30Wh
12 VQuick discharge 2880mAh measured Voltage 11.2V/1.51A=>32Wh
I also tested several phones and Ipad all was charged with the same amount as the original chargers.
Charging the power bank with an Ipad charger only gives1.5A(instead of 2A), some other USB outlets let it also only charge with below 2A. With a QC charger the thing worked perfectly and charges indeed very Quick with the full current.
What really is great(and new) about this new Version are the following things:
Quick charge input and output
USB type C input
real charge through with UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply): there is no disconnection if the input is disconnected like it was on all previous power banks, also the bank works as a buffer allowing a higher output than input.
double click the button allows low current devices to be used, previous models switched themself offf below 0.07A, so the dimmable USB LEDS didn’t worked in moonmode and also it wasn’t possible to charge small batterys on smartwatches and rc helicopter so well.
Especially the charge through feature was kind of buggy on all the previous Xiaomi power banks, this one works perfectly together with my solar cell. It works as a buffer like someone might expect it. The older versions never worked well for that.
Comparison between different models shows clearly how slim this one is.
Teardown
I was glad that they chosed this time the same case construction as the older models. Bottom and top plate are glued with adhesive tape, 2 screws on the bottom, after that the innards can be pushed out:
backside of innards:
Battery: LISHEN SP4858102SH-C 3.85V
Side view: you can see two parallel cells and a ntc temperature sensor in between
PCBtop, similiar to other xiaomi power banks, just the LEDs are a bit brighter

The power bank came from Banggood and it was 100%genuine.
Conclusion
I got the power bank for free from banggood, this is the link I should provide in the review:
http://goo.gl/oIUhWS it is no affiliate link, but it is kind of a tracking link so that they can see if my review is it worth, so please click it plenty that they might send me another product for a review.

Link unshortened for the curious…
The power bank is better than any of the previous xiaomi power banks(which were fantastic to their time). Especially the new low current feature and the UPS mode are super nice. The capacity is enough to recharge an ipad air2 once or most phones several times. But on the cons side the price is higher than the older models with 18650 in it which were really cheap…this one here still has a good price/value ratio because of all the features, but you have to think about what you need. I for example will use it in my Blitzwolf solar charger where the 16000mAh and 20000 models always nagged me.
