In reply to Sl@te Head:
Charging a power bank is usually prefered, because some phones (iPhones usualy), when geting a lower current (the solar panel gets shaded temporarily by a cloud or trees) switch to trickle charge and remain in it until you unplug and plug them back (some more modern panels like the Anker or BigBlue 28W claim to be able to detect that and reset the current, although I am not sure if it really works consistently, from my experience). Of course, everything depends on the charging circuitry of the powerbank as well, if it can cope well with the varying current from the panel in changing conditions.
When stationary (in camp), not only the power bank or phone should be in shade, it's important to try to have the solar panel itself somehow cooled (perhaps positioned such that there is some airflow underneath it, not just put it on hot ground). The (not so high to begin with) efficiency of photovoltaics gets quite lower when they heat up from all the sunlight.
