I have used Anker products for a few years now and I have always been impressed with them. This unit is no different I occasionally drive a company truck for work which doesn’t have usb-c charging and that is one of the main reasons why I chose to get this charger. This charger is small and compact which is great because it can fit in any pocket and I love the fact that if I don’t have a charging wire I can just slap it on the back of my phone which is so convenient! (However make sure you have a MagSafe compatible case if you are using an iPhone) The only downside is because of its small battery it will not charge your phone to 100% (via the MagSafe charging feature I have yet to charge my phone via lighting cable) if your phones battery is lower than 25% but it will give you enough charge to get through your day! All in all I’m very pleased with this charger!

It doesn’t have a lot of power but i find it just right to get me by my day. The magnet is nice and strong so it’ll stay on your phone no matter what. I have an iphone 13 pro and it charges my phone to about 80% when its at 10% only downside is that it charges very slow but i dont mind it since its just stuck on the back of my phone and i don’t really notice it. Its just perfect to get you through the day without having your phone die.

Oh though it didn’t have the strongest magnets or the best battery life but in some cases that’s how it’s gonna be. Mag safe loses a lot more battery when wirelessly charging than a cable and also makes it slower. But I found that if your case is grippy on the back it won’t slid as much and the magnets won’t matter at all! The only thing you can’t fix is the charging speed but it’s nice that’s it’s slow in one way to help out with the life of your phones battery and overheating. After the end of the day I can charge my 12 pro to 75 percent in the whole packs charge. And on other nice thing is I can use it normally with a usb c cable to lightning for the full use of that 5k battery.

For half of the price you’re getting a MagSafe battery bank that will do the job better than Apple’s MagSafe battery bank especially for anyone who owns a 12 Max. With that said, there are pros and cons when compared to Apple’s. Pros: Faster recharge It will give you a better recharge. Battery charge indicator for the battery bank. Cons: The battery bank is thicker due to the larger battery. The magnet is not as strong, even on a MagSafe case. Gets hot while charging the phone. No reverse charging. The battery bank drains just as fast as Apple’s. Nitpick: It doesn’t show up in the battery widget to show you the percentage left. For half the price, it will get the job done. It’ll also charge your 12 Pro Max better. However, you will lose out on some extra features that Apple’s product will give you. Apple’s charger doesn’t get as hot like Anker’s which, in the long run, will be better for your phone’s battery health. I’d recommend it if you don’t want to spend $100 on a battery bank that is less efficient as the pros still outweigh the cons.

I have so many charging banks that it might be a slight obsession. Standard bricks, wireless, ones with fold out prongs, solar, credit card size, you name it, I have one. This is the first one that scratched all the itches and was something I didn't know I needed until Apple added the mag option. The fact this battery just attaches to the phone and wirelessly charges it so I don't have to hold it separately or balance or use a cable is awesome. It just works and works well. The magnets hold firm when generally holding it with the phone but it will slip if too much pressure is set. The capacity is ideal to get you that extra few hours of use when needed. On it's own, it's not very large which is great. Maybe a little thicker than I would like, but overall I'm still able to hold the phone with the charger attached without problem (I don't have the Pro). It definitely adds weight to the phone when attached, but not as much as you might think. This is going to be my portable charger going forward.

This battery pack has been awesome, loved it for quite some time,. However out of the blue it ceased charging, charging devices or shutting off. It not continuously blinks its 3rd indicator light. After reaching out to Anker support, they denied a replacement request as I was out of the “3 month” warranty period. I guess those are the rules they set forth, but $40 for a battery pack that is only guaranteed to work for 3 months is a bit of a bummer. Definitely was hoping I’d get some good will, at minimum a discount on a replacement since I’ve spent hundreds of dollars on Anker products. Definitely will rethink my next purchases…

I'd purchased this to try out with a new iPhone 12 mini, but received an empty opened envelope in the mail along with an official notice from USPS that it'd been tampered with. I contacted Anker cust service and explained what happened - right away they said they'd look into it. They ended up sending another brand new one in a few days. As to the actual charger, it's been working very well - the form factor is great for the 12 mini and convenient for just putting it in your (normal guy's) pocket. Yeah it's the lower 5W charging as opposed to the full magsafe, but i feel it goes as fast as any other items of similar quality we have. Rated to do about 1+ complete charge for an iPhone 12 Mini, before you need to plug in the charger. But that's fine if you're only using it to keep your battery up until you can plug it in normally, which's how I plan to use it as when travelling in future. Overall very happy with it, and extra happy with the customer service

Just the right size for my iPhone 13 Mini. I wouldn't mind a thinner one (this can probably charge my phone a few times over), but it still fits in the pocket of my Levis just fine while attached to my phone.

Excelente batería portátil. Es una excelente opción para cargar de manera inalámbrica tu iPhone, ya que es Magsafe. Considera varias cosas: al ser inalámbrica la carga no es TAN rápida como con cable. La velocidad de carga es buena-aceptable. Además, tu iPhone se calentará, lo cual es completamente normal por ser carga inalámbrica. Por otro lado, alcanza para una carga completa aproximadamente al iPhone 13 Pro. Es buena compra y la recomiendo ampliamente

The package arrived well protected and on time, even when there was a tornado warning in our area. The battery pack is sleek and small; it is heavier than expected. The construction of the battery pack is solid, like Anker products. The charging speed is slow; I would look at this product as something that will maintain the phone while connected and not something that will quickly charge the phone. I like the size, and using my IPhone 12 Pro while the battery is connected is still comfortable. The magnetic strength with MagSafe cases have been excellent and I am confident it won’t fall off with normal use

I've been using this for a little 4 months now, and I've found it to be relatively good. Its cheaper than Apple's offering. Downside is the fact that its a little heavier. Other than that it is good. Charging capacity is decent, and the magnets through a magsafe case are acceptable. Would definitely purchase again. Hopefully there will be a smaller capacity but slimmer and lighter one in the future.

Muy buena batería, la fuerza de MagSafe es buena aun con case en el teléfono. La recarga es rápida, obvio no tanto como la recarga por cable y cargador. Se puede usar sin problema para carga alambrica como inalámbrica, probado en iPhone 13 y audífonos pixel (ambas opciones de carga) y Motorola moto g (solo alambrica), de hecho este teléfono la detecta como turbo power.

Able to fully charge my iPhone 12 Pro Max when it’s battery was down to 25-30%. Magnet is strong enough to stick to my case but I wish it should be stronger.
