Ranked #8 in Best MagSafe Power Banks

ESR HaloLock MagSafe Power Bank

3.9

3 sources$40as of Aug 1

The ESR HaloLock MagSafe Power Bank charges iPhones reliably and adds an integrated kickstand, at the cost of some bulk. iMore rated the MagSafe connection sturdy and the 10,000mAh capacity useful for travel. artiss.blog was less impressed, criticizing the bulkiness and the excessive plastic packaging. It charges at 15W over MagSafe and includes a USB-C port so you can charge two devices, though it doesn't sit flush with smaller iPhones in cases.

Strengths

— Reliable MagSafe connection that feels sturdy
— Good capacity with 10,000mAh battery
— Handy kickstand for propping up iPhone

Watch-outs

— A bit too chunky to be pocketable
— Doesn't sit flush with smaller iPhones in cases
— Disappointing packaging with excessive plastic

Native Union Boost Charge MagSafe Power Bank

4.3

3 sources2 derived$69.99as of Aug 3

The Native Union (Re)Classic Power Bank is thin enough and stylish enough that you can leave it stuck to your iPhone. iMore's Gerald Lynch praised the 5,000mAh capacity and 15W wireless charging and said its slim profile means it can stay attached permanently. It skips the newer Qi2 standard, which caps how fast it can charge. Colors include black, kraft yellow, and slate green, and a braided USB-C cable is included. Buyers who care about aesthetics and portability more than charging speed are the fit.

Strengths

— Slim design at only 8.6mm thick and 123g weight
— 5,000mAh capacity sufficient for full iPhone 15 Pro charge
— Textured Yatay material provides grip and feels like leather

Watch-outs

— Qi2 certified, but it still charges at the older Qi standard's slower speeds
— Charging speed limited by temperature management in slim design

How they stack up

ESR HaloLock MagSafe Power Bank

The ESR HaloLock provides a sturdy MagSafe connection and 10K mAh capacity, but it's bulkier than the Apple or Ugreen models and doesn't sit flush with smaller iPhones in cases. Compared to the Baseus, it lacks the built-in USB-C cable and LED display, making it less feature-rich despite similar capacity.

Native Union Boost Charge MagSafe Power Bank

The Native Union Boost Charge is the slimmest option at 8.6mm thick, but it lacks Qi2 support and has limited charging speed compared to the Belkin BoostCharge Pro and Mophie Snap+. Unlike the Anker MagGo, it doesn't feature a foldable stand, and unlike the Baseus model, it lacks a 20W PD USB-C port for fast device charging.
