The Acebeam X75 flashlight power bank has the self-given title of the most powerful flashlight in the world, according to Acebeam Technology Co., Ltd a manufacturer of high-quality flashlights and headlamps since 2014.
It’s so powerful in fact, that the light emits so much heat that it uses a fan to actively air-cool it so as to preserve the life of the battery. This flashlight also has power bank functionality — use the charging port as an output to give external devices a boost of power, but be mindful that this will reduce your flashlight’s runtime. For this review, we will focus on the flashlight functionality, as that is what we’re most interested in.

Claiming any device is the most powerful in its category worldwide is a strong statement that needs to be backed up with proof. Happily, when we took the Acebeam X75 for a spin we certainly didn’t find it wanting.
As this is a hefty investment (around the $400 mark), it might be overkill for most people’s needs, have a look at our best flashlight guide or best headlamps for alternative and cheaper models.
Acebeam X75 review
Acebeam X75 review: Design
- Large, but still practical thanks to LED and Li-ion design
- Black metal makes it look premium without adding much weight
- Lighter than it looks
The Acebeam X75 has three core settings for you to play with, each one easy to access without needing to tap away at its two buttons for too long. Hold one to turn it on to its lowest setting, which is about bright as any standard flashlight, around 10,000 Lumens. Tap that same button and you’ll get to see what this thing can do, to the tune of 80,000 Lumens. It lights up everything in front of you but has such a decent range that the cone of light captures way more than you’d ever need it to.
The lowest setting is excellent for built-up areas around houses or other people. You don’t want to blind them or draw too much attention to yourself by lighting up the whole street, and the ability to do this means you don’t need another, dimmer, flashlight that you take out for your day-to-day local walks.
