Magsafe Battery Pack best
More on reddit.comApple MagSafe battery pack charger vs a 3rd party battery case. I’m looking for a charging solution but every review I read is skewed to one end or the other of a spectrum. Anyone have any insight or recommendations?
I was between the anker and apple mag battery pack. I went with the anker because it has more battery and can charge other devices. There is almost no difference in charging speed and its half the price.

Hey ya'll, I asked this same question but it's been a while so maybe theres something new, but I wanted to ask if there are battery packs that are cheaper than the Apple one?
My only criteria personally is that it's cheaper than the Apple one, and that it triggers the Magsafe animation when attaching it, I just like to watch the animation.
My other question was, can anyone comment here or send a message, for a link for an NFC sticker to trigger these animations? If I can't find an alternative I may just try to make one on my own.
Thanks for reading!

The Anker MagGo battery is freaking awesome for only like $60
Just curious if there’s anything out there as all I’ve seen are for regular and max, not the mini. Thanks!
I love most Apple products. I somewhat agree with people saying they're overpriced, but if you can afford it, it's usually still worth it to me for the extra quality, thought into design, ease of use, etc. The "Magsafe" battery however is an exception. I bought this thing on impulse without doing any research on it prior because I got used and thought it was a good deal at half retail price.
First of all, it only wirelessly charges at 5W unlike the Magsafe charger which charges at 15W. The only thing that's "Magsafe" about this is that it has a stupid magnet. Cases with magnets already existed long before Apple came out with Magsafe, big deal. Secondly you cannot charge wired with it. This means you cannot take advantage of the iPhone 12's fast PD charging capabilities, you cannot charge your iPad, you cannot charge any other devices. Other portable batteries can and are way better suited for travel when you have many devices and are on the go, so you want to juice up as fast as possible. Lastly, it doesn't have any cool features like level indicator or kickstand.
This piece of crap should not cost $99. I paid $50 for it and frankly don't think it should be worth any more than $20. It is inferior to nearly every single other power banks out there. Anybody have any positive things to say about this product? Any redeeming qualities that would make me feel better about my purchase?
Return it?
I’m the opposite. Works very well for my 12 mini. I just pop it on in the morning to keep it charged at 90-100%. The battery pack is usually dead right around my work day is over (about 8 hours after I put it on). Then the iPhone’s battery easily makes it through the rest of the day.
My iPhone was dying after 12-13 hours and I always needed to charge it during the day before getting this battery pack.
