Pros and cons
Pros
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, pairing phone and chat with email and a help centre
- charger and power bank keeps the catalogue short and focused on what most shoppers actually buy
- Top output of 130 W covers phones, tablets and lighter laptops
Cons
- charger and power bank stops at chargers and power banks, while anker and mophie cover charger, power bank and cable
- US names the US alone, so buyers elsewhere should check delivery terms first
- Top output of 130 W leaves desktop class charging to other brands
Who it suits
- US shoppers who need one charger or one power bank and nothing more
- Readers who want human help as well as self service, given support on email, chat and phone
- Value buyers weighing $39 against the wider catalogues at mfish and anker
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone after cables, docks or wireless charging, since mophie and anker list charger, power bank and cable while this range stops at charger and power bank
- Buyers who need desktop class power, as output ends at 130 W
- Shoppers outside the US, because US names a single market
Who runs it
The brand is run by Guilin Zhishen Information Technology Co., Ltd., headquartered in the CN and founded in 2015. Support runs on email, chat and phone, so you can reach the company by phone, chat, email or its help centre. That mix keeps post purchase help away from a single inbox, which matters most when a faulty unit arrives.

Frequently asked questions
How much do the chargers and power banks cost?+
Zhiyun lists chargers and power banks from $39, and top output across the range reaches 130 W. There are no tiers or renewal steps to weigh, since each unit is bought outright and the charger and power bank list is the whole catalogue.
What is the highest output this brand offers?+
Top output is 130 W, a little under the 145 that is typical across the site. That handles phones and tablets comfortably and charges lighter laptops, though not at the pace a desktop machine needs.
What product types does the brand sell?+
charger and power bank covers chargers and power banks and stops there. mophie and anker each list charger, power bank and cable, so anyone assembling a desk setup with cables or a dock has a wider choice elsewhere.
Which markets can I buy in?+
US lists the US as the market the store is set up for. Buyers in other countries are not covered by that listing, so delivery, currency and warranty terms for their own market are worth confirming before ordering.
How do I get help after buying?+
Support runs on email, chat and phone. Phone and chat sit next to email and a help centre, so both quick questions and fault reports have a route. Across comparable brands, a help centre appears on 96.3% and phone support on 51.9%.
Who runs the brand?+
Guilin Zhishen Information Technology Co., Ltd. is the legal entity, headquartered in the CN and founded in 2015. Buying and support sit with the same company, which is a simpler path than chasing a marketplace seller or a regional distributor.
How does it rank against other charging brands?+
On top output it ranks 29 of 46 brands, and on entry price 32 of 50. The overall score of 8.9 carries an offer part of 9.2 and a trust part of 8.4.
