Apple MagSafe Battery Pack

4.3

4 sources1 derived$59as of Jul 31

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 #9 in Best MagSafe Power Banks

Mophie Snap+ 5000mAh Power Bank

3.8

2 sources$34.99as of Jul 31

The Mophie Snap+ Juice Pack Mini with Stand offers Qi2-certified magnetic wireless charging plus a built-in kickstand for hands-free viewing. Reviewers found the compact design and MagSafe compatibility suit people charging on the go. It supplies up to 15W of wireless power and enough to fill an iPhone completely, though some reviewers pointed out the MagSafe output is capped at 7.5W. iPhone users who value convenience and portability over maximum charging speeds are the fit.

Strengths

— Magnetic Qi2-compatible design works with Apple's MagSafe system for precise alignment
— Built-in kickstand enables hands-free viewing in portrait or landscape mode
— Provides up to 15W wireless charging power for fast battery boosts

Watch-outs

— MagSafe charging is limited to 7.5W output (not the full 15W capability of some iPhones)
— Only one USB-C port means you can't charge both the power bank and an external device simultaneously

How they stack up

Apple MagSafe Battery Pack

Unlike the Belkin BoostCharge Pro or ESR HaloLock, Apple's MagSafe Battery Pack offers seamless iOS integration and unlocks reverse wireless charging on iPhone 12 models, but it lacks the high capacity of competitors like the Baseus or Aukey Omnia models. Its premium price and limited 1,460 mAh capacity make it less practical for heavy users compared to the Ugreen or Spigen alternatives.

Mophie Snap+ 5000mAh Power Bank

The Mophie Snap+ offers a built-in kickstand and Qi2 compatibility, but its 7.5W MagSafe output is slower than the 15W capabilities of the Belkin BoostCharge Pro and Native Union models. Unlike the Baseus power bank, it has a smaller 5000mAh capacity and lacks the 20W PD USB-C charging support found in the Baseus and Aukey Omnia Power models.
