I don’t have any specific recommendations anymore — my first Nitecore bulged (second has been ok for ~2y now), and my understanding is that Anker quality has dropped — but check out the Anker nano 5k… or the NB10000v2, which is only ~150g.

I bought one, as it seemed easier to use due to the built-in usb-c connector rather than using a cable when out and about. I have an old 5,000mah charger that's about the same size and weight. The old one is a five year old NOVOO which I was concerned was wearing out.
FWIW, the old unit charges my phone slightly faster, 60-95% in 42 minutes v 50 and 49-96% in 56 v 63 (assuming the phone % indicator is consistent if not accurate). Not enough difference to care and now I won't need to carry a cable.
Main use case is walking around on vacation and topping up the phone later in the day, mostly for photos and maps.
