Some gadgets are built to impress. Others? They’re built to be used—and used often. The JustZan Mini Foldable Cooling Pad Fan (or as many might call it, a compact kipas tangan) falls squarely into the latter. It may not turn heads with flashy colors or over-the-top packaging, but from the moment I took it out of the box, it was clear this fan was designed with practicality in mind.
Let’s start with the unboxing.
What’s in the box?
It’s a simple, no-nonsense setup. Inside the box, you’ll find the fan itself, a foldable stand that doubles as a phone holder, a USB-C charging cable, and a short manual. Everything’s packed neatly, and once in your hands, it’s clear this fan is meant to follow you wherever you go—whether that’s your desk, your bag, or clipped onto your backpack.
Wind Power: Surprisingly Powerful for Its Size
This is easily one of the strongest compact fans I’ve tried. It has five speed settings, but truth be told, I rarely need to go beyond speed 1. That’s already powerful enough to cool my face, especially when I’m indoors without air-conditioning, or even outside on a humid day.
It doesn’t just cool — it rescues you from the kind of heat that makes you instantly regret stepping outside. And for a palm-sized fan, that’s saying something.
Battery Life: Lasts Long Enough for Your Daily Routine
On speed 1, I’ve consistently gotten around 4 hours and 30 minutes of uninterrupted use. That’s more than enough for a few meetings, study sessions, or even a half-day of outdoor activity. Unlike many portable fans (or kipas mini), it doesn’t come with a digital battery percentage display — but when charging, the number of lights that turn on gives you a clear idea of how much battery has been charged.
It’s also USB-C compatible and works perfectly with a power bank, making it easy to top up on the go without needing to hunt for a wall socket. With a reliable battery like this, you can truly stay cool anywhere, anytime.
Sound: Noticeable, But Not Distracting
Now, let’s talk about sound. This fan isn’t whisper-quiet, even at the lowest speed. At speed 1, there’s still a noticeable hum—just loud enough that your colleagues might glance over. In fact, one of mine mentioned how quiet the office suddenly got when I left for lunch and took the fan with me.
It’s not a dealbreaker by any means, but it’s something to note if you’re in a silent workspace or sensitive to ambient noise.
Portability: Small Body, Big Function
The size strikes a nice balance. It’s slightly larger than your average pocket fan, but still compact enough to fit in a small bag without trouble. Roughly the size of a folded phone, its foldable design helps it stay travel-friendly and easy to stash away. Whether you’re heading out for errands, moving between meetings, or packing light for a short trip, it’s one of those gadgets that earns its spot in your bag.
Design and Features: Thoughtfully Made for Real Life
There’s a lot packed into this tiny frame. Let’s start with the look—it’s minimalist, clean, and fits right into any work-from-home or office aesthetic.
But what really makes it stand out is its multi-functionality. You can place it on your desk using the included stand, which even doubles as a phone holder—perfect for video calls or watching content hands-free. But if you ever forget the stand, you’re not out of options. There’s a built-in hook behind the fan that not only lets you hang it on your bag or any surface, but also doubles as a mini stand to keep the fan upright. It’s a small touch, but one that adds a lot of flexibility to how and where you can use the fan.
The fan also rotates up and down manually, allowing you to find just the right angle. But the real MVP here is the cooling pad. Yes, this fan has a built-in ice cooling pad, which you can activate by pressing a button on the left side. Place the cooling pad directly on your skin (like your neck or wrist) and you’ll feel an immediate drop in temperature—perfect for sweltering outdoor days.
Controlling the fan is also super easy. It has a single main button that you can press left or right, depending on what you want to do. Click the right side to increase the speed, the left side to reduce it, and a long press turns the fan on or off. Want to activate the cooling pad? Just press the left side again after turning it on. It’s intuitive and user-friendly—and with USB-C charging, recharging is simple and convenient wherever you are.
Value for Money: Worth Every Cent
At $34.90 / RM99.00, it’s priced reasonably—especially considering everything it offers. You’re not just getting a fan. You’re getting a portable cooling solution with thoughtful features like the cooling pad, multifunctional stand, and strong airflow in a compact body.
For those who are always on the go—whether you’re commuting, working outdoors, or hopping between meetings—this fan makes hot days feel a little more bearable.
The Verdict
The JustZan Foldable Fan with Cooling Pad isn’t just a fan you throw into your bag and forget about. It’s the kind of gadget you’ll find yourself reaching for more often than expected. Strong wind power, long battery life, and the bonus of a skin-cooling pad make it more than just a cooling device—it’s an all-in-one comfort solution for our tropical lifestyle.
If you’ve been considering a portable fan but want something with a little more utility, this one’s an easy recommendation.
