This iPhone power bank has a huge capacity, refilling a faded iPhone 15 Pro twice over in our tests—the best we’ve seen, although the Anker MagGo Power Bank performed extremely closely. We run the iPhone down to 10%, recharge using the power bank, and keep doing this until the power bank is empty.

It is MagSafe compatible and can wirelessly charge an iPhone at 7.5W, or a super speedy 30W when connected via USB-C—again, the best we’ve yet seen. What makes this power bank even more special is its short built-in USB-C cable that can be used for fast-charging an iPhone 15 or 16 or refilling the power bank itself. The 5.5-inch cable can be neatly hooked into the battery pack’s USB-C port for easy carrying.

Wirelessly it will work with any MagSafe iPhone (12/13/14/15/16). iPhone 15 and 16 users can connect via the integrated USB-C cable or a separate longer cable if required, for the fastest charging. Owners of earlier iPhones can use a USB-C to Lightning cable instead for fast 30W wired charging from the power bank.

While its wired charging is fastest, the Qi2 Anker MagGo Power Bank, reviewed below, is twice as fast when clamped on for wireless charging.

It’s reasonably chunky—twice as thick as the 5K Casely power Pod reviewed below—but around the same as any other 10000mAh MagSafe power banks we’ve tested. It just fits in a trouser pocket while connected but if you want a slimmer battery pack, look for a smaller 5000mAh option—we’ve tested the best slim power banks further on.

This power bank is clearly built for the iPhone 15 and 16 families—with its neat integrated USB-C cable—but it works as well as any other wireless power bank tested here with the other MagSafe iPhones, and that built-in cable can be used to charge the power bank itself.

At present it’s available in the U.S. only.

Around the same size as the Baseus Magnetic Power Bank, reviewed above, the Anker MagGo Power Bank (10K) didn’t quite match that battery pack in terms of recharging but was still impressive.

Where it beats the Baseus is in wireless charging speed. The MagSafe compatible Baseus is limited to 7.5W wireless charging, while the Anker is certified for the new Qi2 standard and so supports 15W wireless charging. This works with all MagSafe-supporting devices: from the iPhone 12 to 16. (Note that the iPhone 12 doesn’t officially support Qi2 but Macworld iPhone 12 Qi2 tests suggest that it does.)

The Baseus power bank has a slightly more powerful cabled charging spec (30W vs Anker’s 27W) but the difference is negligible. We like the integrated USB-C cable included with the Baseus, but any decent USB-C charging cable can be used with the Anker to fast-wired-charge an iPhone.

Aside from faster wireless charging, the Anker boasts two handy features missing from the Baseus: an LED display that shows you exactly how much charge is left in the battery pack, and a solid pull-out stand at the back.

If you want speedy wireless charging, the Qi2 Anker MagGo Power Bank is as fast as you’ll get with a portable battery pack.

While a little bigger and 25% heavier than the Belkin BoostCharge and Anker MagGo 622, the the oddly named Benks MagClap StandGo Power Bank’s battery capacity is twice that of its rivals—and beat the fellow 10K Alogic Lift and OneAdaptr OneGo battery packs in our recharging tests. Where the 5K Belkin recharged a faded iPhone 13 Pro by 90%, the 10K Benks boosted it by a whopping 160%.

It also boasts two USB ports. You recharge the battery pack itself via the USB-C port at 20W, and you can also use this port for faster-than-wireless cable charging, also at 20W when you’re in a hurry for power. The bonus USB-A port can charge at 18W, so you could charge three devices simultaneously at decent speeds.

At the time of writing, the choice of colors is quite arbitrary. U.S. buyers can choose from all three, while the U.K. gets black only, and some other countries, just blue.

Similar to the Benks and ESR 10K magnetic wireless power banks with stands, the Ugreen Foldable Kickstand Magnetic Battery recharged the most in our tests, but is usually a little more in cost—so check the live prices we include here to see which is the best value at the time your are buying. In terms of ports and size they are closely matched.

Like the Benks the Ugreen 10K magnetic power bank has USB-A and USB-C ports and can wired charge an iPhone at up to 20W via USB-C, which is faster but less convenient (you need a cable to hand) than the wireless pad. If you have friends or family with a compatible Samsung phone, you’ll get 15W on wireless but it’s limited to 7.5W wireless iPhone charging. Look to the Anker Qi2, reveiwed above, for the fastest wireless charging.

Using both ports you can charge both your iPhone and the power bank itself at the same time.

Much bigger and meaner than the Baseus Magnetic Power Bank, the Raycon 5-in-1 Power Bank can charge five devices simultaneously: two through the USB-C and USB-A ports, one wirelessly through MagSafe, and two through the built-in cables.

In our tests, it was very close in battery charging power to the Baseus—charging an iPhone 15 Pro nearly twice over.

It claims to offer 15W of wireless power but isn’t officially certified by Apple. However, it does show the MagSafe charging logo at the beginning of a charge and so may have circumvented certification and yet still boast a fast wireless charge.

It features built-in U.S. plug prongs so can be connected straight into a power socket rather than requiring a separate USB-C charger. This is fine for users based in the U.S. or Canada, but international users will have to use the USB-C port with a travel adapter that could end up too wobbly when hanging on to a power socket.

Also integrated are two output cables: one USB-C for iPhone 15 and 16, and one Lightning for older iPhones and Apple devices. If you don’t have any Lightning-based devices this will be superfluous, although friends in need of power may thank you if their iPhones are older. Most people’s AirPods are still Lightning based, so you may well find a use for it.

The power bank even features a handy pull-out phone clip that holds your phone upright, although the placement of the cables means the battery pack can’t charge your phone while it’s in the mini stand.

Unlike some of the more svelte power banks reviewed here—even the Baseus Power Bank—the Raycon 5-in-1 Power Bank is too big and bulky to let you slip the iPhone plus battery pack into your pocket—even a slim coat pocket might strain to hold both. As a portable power bank you might carry in a bag on your travels, it could keep as many as five devices charged up long enough for you to reach the next fixed power source.

As the built-in plug prongs work in the U.S. and Canada only, it’s not much help to international buyers. A similar alternative that does fare better around the world is the Journey Axie 3-in-1 Global Wall Charger & 10k mAh Power Bankreviewed lower down, which is about the same size and weight and features a built-in USB-C cable and a USB-C port plus of course features a wireless charging pad. While the Raycon can service five devices, the Journey can cope with only three but it does have plug heads for U.S., U.K., E.U. and Australia/N.Z. It is also faster at charging via USB, with a maximum 35W output that’s enough for even a 13-inch MacBook!

Similar to the Raycon 5-in-1 Magic Power Bank, reviewed above, is the Journey Axie 3-in-1 Global Wall Charger & 10K mAh Power Bank, which is about the same size and weight and features a detachable USB-C cable and a USB-C port plus of course a wireless charging pad. It can plug directly into a wall power socket.

It lacks the Raycon’s extra Lightning cable—which anyway is useful only for owners of iPhones older than the iPhone 15 or for charging your old AirPods case—and has one fewer spare USB-C port and no USB-A port.

Where it does beat the Raycon is its included international plug heads that slip onto the integrated U.S. prongs. It even comes in a nice travel case to keep everything together, which is handy as the nice white finish could get messed up at the bottom of a backpack.

It can charge at up to 35W via USB-C, so can be used to charge a 13-inch MacBook when plugged into a power socket. The wireless charger is non-operational when the Axie used as a wall charger.

Charging via USB-C is certainly the fastest way to charge an iPhone. When charging three devices, 15W of power is shared the two USB-C ports, plus the 7.5W of wireless charging.

We recommend this power bank for MacBook users who want a portable 35W charger with MagSafe for wireless iPhone charging, plus USB options.

While a wireless charging pad saves you the bother of carrying a cable around to charge your phone from a power bank, you still need a cable to hand to recharge the power bank itself… but not with the PhoneSuit Journey Mag, which features foldable North American plug prongs so you can plug the battery pack straight into a power socket.

While plugged in, the power bank can charge the attached iPhone wirelessly at the same time as recharging the battery pack.

Two further USB ports are also handy. The USB-C port can charge at 20W, so much faster than the 7.5W MagSafe-compatible wireless charging pad—but you will need a USB-C cable in this instance: USB-C to Lightning for iPhones older than the iPhone 15, and USB-C to USB-C for the 15 and 16. The USB-A port can charge another device at up to 18W.

The 10000mAh battery capacity allowed us to charge a faded iPhone to 100% and then again another 50%, which is about average for this size battery.

No 10K power bank is super slim but the PhoneSuit Journey Mag is slimmer than most, and although it is noticeably longer it is slightly easier to pocket than the Baseus 10K Power Bank or the Anker MagGo 10K while attached to your phone.

5K battery packs are slim enough to clamp to your iPhone and still slip into your pocket.

While 10000mAh power banks boast larger re-charging capacity, if you want a slightly smaller and lighter battery pack with a stand, we recommend you choose between this power bank and either the Ugreen 5000mAh Magnetic Wireless Power Bank or the smaller still Casely Power Pod, both reviewed below. All have 5000mAh batteries but the Belkin won in our head-to-head tests, recharging a faded iPhone 15 Pro by 79%.

The Belkin’s kickstand is easy to use and feels robust, and the battery pack itself is marginally smaller. The Torras MagStall Power Bank is a little slimmer but wider and boasts a stand/finger-grip but recharges to a slightly lesser extent.

It features 7.5W wireless charging when clamped to the back of an iPhone, and can be charged with a cable at a chippy 10W.

Belkin and Amazon offers a choice of four colors, and the Apple Store now has an exclusive set of new colors, including blue, sand and lime green. European customers gets an exclusive gold option, too.

The Power Pod from phone-case supremo Casely builds on the company’s bright and patterned phone cases range to make this the MagSafe-compatible battery pack the most varied in range with 50 wildly different designs from plain black to shocking pink and with The Beatles and Van Gogh in between.

It is one of the lightest and smallest magnetic battery packs, which is a big plus in portability and pocketability when attached to your phone..

The Power Pod might not charge as much as 10K battery packs, but is capacity is equal to any other 5K magnetic power bank we have tested here. The 80% battery boost we got should be easily enough to keep your phone going until you reach a charging station.

It comes with a separate magnetic adhesive ring that you can attach to a non-magnetic phone and enjoy the benefits of a battery pack.

At present, this product is available in the U.S. only, which is a real shame for international iPhone users as this is an ultra-portable magnetic wireless power bank that delivers in both power and style.

You’ll find plenty of super-cheap power banks online, but the best-priced magnetic power bank that we have tested from a trusted manufacturer is the Ugreen 5000mAh Magnetic Wireless Power Bank. For safety’s sake, we recommend you avoid the cheapest deals for products from providers you can trust—and we’ve done that testing for you.

It might lack a built-in stand as seen on other similar smaller-capacity power banks, but it can recharge your fading iPhone to about two-thirds full battery capacity, and is slim and lightweight.

It is also blessed with the ability to charge at 15W via a cable (supplied) and the power bank’s USB-C port.

If you want a magnetic power bank that’s even smaller, the Belkin BoostCharge Magnetic Wireless Power Bank 2.5K is a little slimmer, shorter and narrower and 25% lighter. It manages this with a smaller capacity battery, and this shows in the performance. In our tests it resurrected a faded iPhone 15 Pro by 41%, which might be enough for several hours service but is weaker than the Ugreen 5K power bank and all the other battery packs tested here. But it is smaller and noticeably lighter, and is available online for around the same price as the Ugreen.

The Anker MagGo 622 Magnetic Battery is available in multiple muted colors: white, purple, green, blue and gray.

It works with all MagSafe iPhones, but sits a little over the smaller iPhone mini when magnetically attached.

We love that the Anker 622 comes with its own built-in fold-out stand, which with MagSafe’s pulling power will hold your iPhone securely in either portrait/vertical or landscape/horizontal mode. The Belkin BoostCharge 5K, reviewed above, has a tougher metal pull-out stand, and also offer another 10% of charge on the better-looking Anker 622.

if you want ultra-charging power, consider the Benks MagClap StandGo Power Bank (also reviewed above) with its powerful 10000mAh battery. Other 10K MagSafe power banks include the OneAdaptr OneGo and Alogic Lift, both reviewed below.

The stand folds away so that it can be popped in a pocket to be magnetically clamped to the phone when you need it most.

In our battery tests, the 622 managed to charge a drained iPhone to 80% of full power, which is a decent power-up while you journey to the nearest fixed power socket.

The Moft Snap Stand Power Set is a clever combination of magnetic battery pack with a detachable stand that also holds up to three travel or credit cards.

The faux leather stand took me a few goes to work out how it works, but once you’ve mastered it, it’s easy. Previously, I haven’t seen a stand that can hold cards at the same time, so this is smarter than most MagSafe stands.

The supplied USB-C cable also links magnetically to the battery pack, which will charge a connected iPhone first before the power bank itself. While the battery pack offers only a 50% charge, that will likely be enough for most trips away from a fixed power source. If you need more portable battery capacity, look at one of the other MagSafe power banks reviewed here, although none boast the dual wallet/stand function.

The battery is only 3400mAh so gives you only a half-charge, but that might be enough to get you through the day.

Rokform is known for its ultra-rugged phone cases and its polycarbonate magnetic wireless power bank also looks like it would survive a combat zone, without having any extra bulk.

Its principal selling points are its small size and light weight. At 112g it’s the lightest magnetic power bank we have tested, but not by a lot—while slightly smaller, the Casely Power Pod, reviewed above, is an unnoticeably 2 grams heavier. It is also the slimmest by a fraction.

It is let down somewhat by its recharging potential. In our tests it re-powered an iPhone 15 Pro by 64%, which is low compared to the Belkin 5K and Casely, both of which reached 80%.

The iWalk Magnetic Wireless Power Bank has a couple of features not found on other magnetic battery packs.

The most obvious is the finger ring, which is meant to mean safer holding but we prefer to grip our phone using a whole hand. But it does double-up as a kickstand for the iPhone so you can place it in a horizontal/landscape viewing position–horizontal feels more stable.

Even more useful is the LED battery-charge indicator that shows you exactly how much charge is in the power bank. This is way more helpful than the usual array of four tiny LEDs that most battery packs come with and especially more informative than Apple’s single Orange (not full) or Green (full) LED that lights up only when cable- connected to a power source.

The iWalk power bank also boasts a sizeable battery, with 2.2Wh (6000mAh) capacity. It recharged our test iPhone 13 Pro to 100% and then another 5% above that, so, in reality, a full charge with a little over for expected battery drain if left sitting in your bag for a few days. And it will charge a non-Pro 12, 13, 14 or 15 even further.

As such, it’s heavier and fatter (including the pull-out ring) than most other magnetic power banks tested here.

It can charge while magnetically clamped to the iPhone and also (but not simultaneously) by USB cable at an impressive 18W, although you’ll need a USB-C-to-Lightning cable for wired charging.

it comes with a USB-C-to-USB-C cable for charging the pack itself, and also a Magsticker to attach to non-MagSafe phones for the same battery-pack functionality.

The RapidX Boosta Magnetic Wireless Charger scores around the same recharge power as other 5,000mAh magnetic battery packs, and is similar in most other respects, too.

Wireless charging speed is 7.5W, or you can connect with a USB-C to Lightning cable (not included) for 10W wired charging. The Boosta comes with a white USB-C cable for charging the power pack itself, and, being USB-C, will work with an iPhone 15 or 16.

While you can’t charge a phone simultaneously with a wired and the wireless connections, it does charge the phone and power bank together while plugged to power.

It’s available in seven shades. None exactly matches the iPhone but it’s a better than just black or white.

RapidX also sells a compatible charging stand for the Boosta battery pack, although in black and for the U.S. only. This can charge the battery and the phone at the same time, and also features a side USB-A port that can be used via cable to charge another device. It ships with a 30W USB-C charger and cable.

The HyperJuice Magnetic Wireless Battery Pack comes from one of our favorite Apple accessory makers, Hyper.

It looks smart and charges up quickly, with a 12W input.

However, it underperformed in our charging tests, scoring just 74%.

Wireless and USB-C connectivity allows you to quick-charge two devices at the same time, but not the same device at a faster speed.

It’s decent value in the US but Hyper’s high shipping charges make it an expensive product internationally.

We have tested a lot of great portable MagSafe wireless chargers but this is the smallest iPhone and Apple Watch charger that doubles up as a power bank. The Alogic Lift 4-in-1 MagSafe Power Bank is very similar but lacks the vertical charging stand and AirPods-charging facility. The OtterBox 2-in-1 Power Bank with MagSafe is a faster-charging but larger alternative. Both are reviewed below.

Yes, it’s a little larger and certainly heavier than most of the wireless power banks reviewed here, but it’s a neat solution if you are away from a power source when either—or both—your Apple devices pings you that terrifying Low Power Mode suggestion.

The Apple Watch charging module flips up from the back of the power bank’s pull-out stand and feels robust enough to survive in-bag travel. It charges at 2W rather than 5W so doesn’t support Apple Watch Fast Charge but it will inject the juice that your Watch requires when you need it—no Move calorie counting or Exercise minutes need be missed.

There is one USB port (the Alogic Lift has two) for input or faster wired iPhone charging (18W).

In our tests, using an iPhone 15 Pro, the power bank wirelessly charged close to 150%. There are 10K battery packs that offer greater charging power: the Baseus Magnetic Power Bank (187%) and Benks MagClap StandGo (160%) both offer better performance but lack the extra USB port, Apple Watch charger and AirPods charging base stand.

Pros

• High battery capacity
• 2x USB so can charge 4 devices at once
• Apple Watch charger
• 7.5W wireless or 18W wired
• Built-in kickstand

The Alogic Lift MagSafe and Apple Watch power bank is a little fatter but shorter than the OneAdaptr OneGo, reviewed above. While very similar, it lacks the OneGo’s base with AirPods charging pad but it does boast two USB ports to the OneGo’s single input/output port.

One USB-C port is for input or faster wired iPhone charging (18W); and the USB-A port is there for older charging cables. You could use either port to charge your AirPods or another iPhone. While you can use both at the same time, simultaneous USB charging does drop power pace to just 5W.

The robust-when-folded Apple Watch charging module charges at 3W rather than 5W so doesn’t support Apple Watch Fast Charge but it is a little faster than the 2W OneGo Watch charger.

If you don’t need the AirPods charging pad, the Alogic Lift is as able and expert as the OneGo.

Pros

• 2-in-1 charging power bank
• High battery capacity
• 15W wireless or 20W wired
• Watch fast charging

This is the largest and heaviest MagSafe power bank we’ve tested. It measures 6-x-3.2-x-1.3 inches (15.3-x-8-x-3.4cm), and weighs a hefty (12oz (340g).

It’s certainly not one to slip easily into a pocket, although it can do if you take everything else out!

It’s great, though, if you use it as a standard wireless charging stand for most of the time but need it occasionally to take away and charge your phone on the go, and it will also charge your Apple Watch when it’s laid flat.

For alternatives look to the Alogic Lift and OneAdaptr OneGo, both reviewed above.

Fully Apple certified, it wirelessly charges an iPhone at 15W and fast-charges an Apple Watch. It’s big but it recharges more iPhone than any other battery pack tested here.

No wireless charging here because the Juice Pack is a protective case with an internal battery. The iPhone is charged via a wired USB-C connector, so charges faster and more efficiently than a wireless-only power bank.

Mophie has designed this battery case to be as slim as possible while still offering enough recharge power to get your iPhone to over a half full battery. The other iPhone 15 battery case we tested, the Newdery Battery Case for iPhone 15, reviewed below, comes in two much larger battery capacities (5K and 10K) but the cases themselves are much heavier and bulky.

It’s a two-piece design that fits the iPhone well, and offers robust protection from knocks, bumps and drops. The top part did slip off a couple of times in testing from a tight trouser pocket but should fare better from a coat or bag. If you want a one-piece iPhone battery case choose one of the Newdery battery cases, reviewed below.

The Mophie Juice Pack is available for all iPhone 15 models except the 15 Plus. If you have an earlier iPhone model, look for options with the Newdery battery cases below.

Pros

• Options for iPhone 6 to iPhone 15
• Protective case
• Near 100% battery charge

The Newdery Battery Case offers full protection and nearly a full battery recharge, and this dual function makes it a cheaper alternative to a MagSafe case and MagSafe battery pack. However, some may find the bulky design too chunky, although the case itself weighs just 134g.

The 5000mAh Newdery Battery Cases scored around 95% in our tests, with the 10K battery cases reaching an amazing 168%.

Those test results are from the iPhone 15 Pro models, but Newdery has battery cases for all the recent iPhones. Newdery iPhone Battery Cases on Amazon US | Amazon UK | Amazon CA.

Some models are wireless compatible themselves so can be charged itself on most Qi charging pads.

If you desire protection as well as longer battery life, the Newdery Battery Case offers both in an affordable package. It is much cheaper than the Mophie Juice Pack reviewed above.
