Baseus has launched a do-it-all travel charger in China that combines a 10,000 mAh power bank, a wall charger, and two built-in USB-C cables in a single body. The new Baseus PicoGo Super Energy Pro is aimed at people who are tired of hauling a small electronics drawer in their backpack, and on paper it looks annoyingly practical.

The hardware mix is straightforward, but clever. There is a built-in AC plug, one retractable USB-C cable that stretches 72 cm, and a shorter 20 cm USB-C cable that doubles as a strap. That means fewer loose cables, fewer excuses, and one less reason to rummage through a bag like a confused octopus.

67W charging and pass-through power

Over USB-C, the PicoGo can output up to 67W, which is enough for phones, tablets, and even some laptops. The USB-A port tops out at 20W, while support for PD, PPS, and QC covers the usual fast-charging alphabet soup. Plug it into the wall and it behaves like a charger with pass-through charging: it powers connected devices first, then refills its own battery.

Display, NFC, and portability trade-off

Baseus also added a display and NFC, so users can check battery status from a smartphone. The catch is weight: at 326 g, this is heavier than a typical power bank, but that is the price of replacing a charger, a cable bundle, and part of your travel kit with one device. Chinese pricing is set at 345 yuan, or about $50, and there is no word yet on a global release.

If Baseus pushes this outside China, it will be going after the same audience that buys compact GaN chargers and magnetic cable systems: travelers, commuters, and desk-to-suitcase users who value fewer accessories more than absolute pocketability. That is a pretty crowded crowd, which is exactly why a cleaner all-in-one design could get attention.
