This is the same price ($60k) as the anker 325 powercore 20k. this 335 weighs more but allows for usb-c charging. are there any other differences?

I was curious about this too. I have ordered this product. I haven't received it yet, but I should be receiving it soon. Here's what I can tell from their product pages: The older Anker 325 Power Bank (PowerCore Essential 20K) has two USB Type-A output ports for charging other devices, and it has one USB Type-C input only port for recharging the Anker 325 Power Bank and also one micro USB input only port that could alternatively be used for recharging the Anker 325 Power Bank. The USB Type-C port and the micro USB port on the Anker 325 Power Bank are input only and cannot be used to charge other devices. Regarding the power output of the Anker 325 Power Bank, it's product page says that it can output up to 2.4 A, which at 5 volts is equal to12 watts. I don't know if that's supposed to be a total of 2.4 A or if it can output 2.4 A each port simultaneously. (There are two output ports and the product page advertises that it can charge 2 devices at the same time.) The newer Anker 335 Power Bank (PowerCore 20K) (which is the product on this page) has two USB Type-A ports and one USB Type-C port. It does not have a micro USB port. I believe the USB Type-C port on the Anker 335 Power Bank is for input and output. The product page for this power bank advertises USB PD (Power Delivery) 20 watt fast charging via its USB Type-C port. In other words, the Anker 335 Power Bank can charge iPhones and other similar modern smartphones at a rate of up to 20 watts via the power bank's USB Type-C port. At the time I'm writing this, the Anker 335 Power Bank product page does not say how many amps or watts the USB Type-A ports can deliver to charge phones and other devices. I am curious to know. Is it also up to 20 watts like the USB Type-C port? If anyone knows, please share. Also, at the time that I'm writing this, the older Anker 325 Power Bank is discounted on Amazon, so it is currently cheaper than the newer Anker 335 Power Bank.

Can you take this onto a plane?

Yes, you can take this with you onto a plane, but only in your hand luggage (aka carry-on luggage). In other words, it has to be with you. It's NOT allowed in checked luggage. I just received mine from Amazon. It says on the Amazon shipping package "forbidden for transport aboard passenger aircraft," but that simply means that it can't be transported by air as "cargo" on passenger planes. This will be true for all lithium ion batteries. If it is with you as a passenger in the passenger part of the plane (like in your pocket, purse, or carry-on luggage), it is okay.

Does this have a usb-c out? i'd like to charge my devices without having to use an adapter.

Yes, it has USB-C output. I just got mine from Amazon. The included manual says that all of the ports (USB-A ports and the USB-C port) can be used to charge phones and tablets. Additionally, the USB-C port is also an input used to recharge the Anker 335 Power Bank (PowerCore 20K).
