Ranked #4 in Best MagSafe Power Banks

Apple MagSafe Battery Pack

3.9

2 sources$99as of Oct 15

Apple says its MagSafe Battery Pack extends iPhone 12 and 13 battery life by up to 60%, and real-world testing put the figure around 60% additional charge for iPhone 13 Pro users. It's compact, with strong magnets, a soft-touch finish, and iOS integration that needs no setup. Reviewers treated it as a premium option that earns its place on trips while costing too much for the capacity you get. iMore called it a 'premium battery pack for your iPhone 12,' and iPhone J.D. praised how well it held up on extended trips, though both flagged the high price and the modest battery size.

Strengths

— Fully integrated into iOS 14.7 and later with smart charging features
— Compact size with strong magnetic attachment for secure iPhone connection
— Unlocks iPhone 12 reverse wireless charging capability

Watch-outs

— Expensive at $99.99 list price
— Small battery capacity of 1,460 mAh with limited additional charge
— Battery can wiggle while attached to iPhone

Ranked #5 in Best MagSafe Power Banks

Belkin BoostCharge Pro MagSafe 10K Battery

3.9

1 source$100as of Oct 15

The 10K capacity is enough to keep a phone going well past a single charge; TechRadar found it returned just under three full recharges of an iPhone 15. A kickstand is built in, and its Qi2 wireless charging runs at 15W when the bank is plugged in, but TechRadar notes it drops to 7.5W on battery alone. Performance is strong, though reviewers noted Apple Store pricing runs higher than other retailers. iPhone owners who want reliable high-capacity wireless charging in a sleek magnetic package are the right buyers.

Strengths

— Impressive battery capacity with 10K mAh rating
— Qi2 wireless charging at 15W in plugged-in passthrough mode
— Built-in kickstand for hands-free viewing, which TechRadar praises

Watch-outs

— Wireless output is only 7.5W when running on battery; 15W requires it to be plugged in, TechRadar found
