It won't go soar up overnight, but things are starting to go up.

I'd say it's the new normal. Just like when SSDs bumped, the glory days may be over.
Now INIU has one even smaller, but the cable is attached by an integrated lanyard. Technically the cable isn't totally attached.

Things to know about this power bank:
- Power bank charges up very slowly
- Charges your device very fast
- When the display is on you can tap the power button twice to put it into trickle mode and a little green led comes on. This lets you run very low powered devices from it for a couple of hours without it doing an auto-shutoff, which it normally does to avoid small drains.
I bought several of these and they've been handy.
Anker, Baseus and INIU tend to buy the "good" rejects. Ones that test safe and still have about 90% or more of their target capacity.
Still, this increases the rate bad apples slip through. So you have to test on arrival.
This is why you can get a 140W 20k mAh portable charger for under $40, or this for around $15.
Also, USB-C, voltage conversion, and heat loss all take away capacity. You should expect 20-30% less capacity than rating, even when perfectly accurate.
All three use nearly identical internals, with INIU and Anker preferring more plastic for drop protection and heat dissipation. Baseus seems to rely more on thermal monitoring, and hope for the best I guess.
