How can we more precise and more detailled run a simple Google Picture Search? My impression is that we have to improve our skills in-lab human and tech based.

Here the actual subject. We search for a white powerbank with the numer 20000 printed in grey on the top. The crime case I cannot reveal. On one side is a single USB-A outlet and I guess somewhere (not confirmed) will be a microUSB to charge. Size is aprox. 25cm x 10cm x 3cm.

In the past when too accurate searching with Google, the search engine replied with to have to proof to be human 'as suspicious blablabla' with a CAPTCHA.

I want to learn -)

Please help me to more accurate run a search request with the mentioned example/subject.

Toda raba.

Good day, Rolf.

I'm not sure what you're entering into google, however the following search terms [powerbank usb microusb 20000 white] brought up several images of power banks, including one that closely matches your description. By adding the brand name of the unit will reduce the search results to that type.

Much luck in your investigations.

Rolf, do you know Google Goggles? Take a picture of the evidence object and let Google search for similar pics. For your convenience, the link to Wikipedia

Happy Hunting!

Define "top".

You are seemingly describing an "Original" Xiaomi Mi 20000 2C, but it has 2 USB ports+the micro USB, and it is smaller than that size

Thks to all! On the 'top', see the example picture here with the word 'KATE'

The figure 20000 is similar printed on the white shell of the powerbank in at least approx. 15mm height of the figures. Its unusal that the nominal capacity of a powerbank is written in 'big' letters. Mostly all the technical parameters are written on the back and small.

Its not the Xiaomi powerbank, eaven Aliexpress may miss to provide RR Real Reality pictures we already got pics from Asia that the device in real has no 20000 on-print.

The powerbank has explicitly ONE! only USB-A outlet on one side.

We work with Google Search Index only as the most accurate source. Using meta search engines does not really help from our experience.

Is there a search tool or site to feed in much written details? I know 'similar' inside Google Picture search also works with a picture and term combined like 'Powerbank'. The combination of PAT Pic And Term we are familiar with.

Can also be a site being based on the Google Search Index, I just recognized in the past that all-outside Google was worse than Google itself. Of course we can ask Google and buy data from them but we here have to sharpen our on DIY skills and the fastest approach always is COTS.

The point I am trying to make (with an example) is (was) that there are like 1 "real" Xiaomi mi powerbank every - say - 10 "fake" ones (mostly listed as "original").

These "original" ones may well have different (badly replicated) writings and other Xiaomi powerbanks do have only one USB A port, possibly an older model for which there is not anymore any item on sale.

See
https://www.techmesto.com/identify-fake-xiaomi-power-bank/

sometimes the fake can be even the fake for a non existing model, like the 20800
https://www.quora.com/How-do-I-check-if-my-Xiaomi-Mi-Power-Bank-is-genuine

the same may happen for *any* brand of course, and there is a whole lot of "similar", "no name" and "no brand" devices which may have (or have not) a 20000 on it, maybe only on a single batch.

You are on the same page - this we already took into consideration from the beginning. The crucial element is ONE USB-A on one side (video evidence). There we hang.
