If you need a power bank for emergencies—one that doesn’t hog space or turn your pocket into a brick—you might want to check out the new NITECORE NB Air Power Bank. Launched at IWA 2025 in Germany, this ultra-thin powerhouse joins NITECORE’s carbon fiber lineup, standing shoulder to shoulder with the NB10000 Gen2. Only this time, it’s gone on a serious diet.
Weighing just 89g (3.14 oz), the NB Air is so light you might forget it’s there—until your phone gasps for life and you smugly pull it out. Despite its slim frame (4.41″ x 1.89″ x 0.38″), it packs a solid 5,000 mAh capacity with an 18W max output via USB-C. That means it’ll juice up your phone fast and then disappear back into your pocket like a well-trained magician.
But wait, there’s more! It’s IPX7 waterproof, which means it laughs in the face of rain, spills, and clumsy coffee mishaps. And thanks to its carbon fiber shell and anti-torsion structure, it can handle the abuse of being tossed in bags, pockets, or anywhere else you cram it.
In the safety department… it rocks overcharge, over-discharge, overcurrent, overvoltage, and short-circuit protection. Basically, this thing is more protective than your grandma when you don’t wear a jacket.
Oh, and it’s airline-approved, so no awkward security checks. Just grab it, charge up, and go. Small. Mighty. Practically indestructible. The NB Air isn’t just a power bank—it’s a pocket-sized survival tool. Pricing and availability have not been disclosed yet. But you want to keep your eyes peeled on this gadget if you care about a small and light power bank.
