The demands that are placed on smartphones today mean that owning a powerful mobile hub is essential for urbanites. The One external battery charger was designed by Katerina Kopytina to provide consumers with [portable charging capabilities on the go](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carbonblade), as well as a few other desirable features.

Unlike most mobile power banks, the One device was made to have its [cables tuck neatly into the sides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cable-managements) of its casing for a lovely, tidy design. These same cords enable [data transfer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/photofast-photopower) so people can share media absolutely anywhere––and they will look good doing it. Manufactured in bright teal, coral pink and a slick black, these handy gadgets are made to be admired if they're seen. Of course, they're compact enough to slip comfortably in your pocket.
