Ever since the introduction of Qi2 I've been intrigued with the thought of picking up an Anker MagGo Power Bank with Qi2, but I'm also not completely sure if I'd use it. Those of you who use any sort of MagSafe battery pack, do you keep it on all day every day? Do you just keep it in your bag charged up to use the odd day you're out longer, or using your phone more heavily?
Curious to hear, I know it probably sounds dumb to think about buying something somewhat expensive without being completely sure I'd actually use it, but it does look like a neat product.
Okay, so I just picked up the new iPhone Air MagSafe battery and… wow. I’ve owned my fair share of portable chargers, but this thing feels totally different. Let me break it down:
What I love:
The ridiculous thinness: It’s only 3,000mAh, so yeah, it makes sense, but this is hands down the thinnest portable battery I’ve ever held. It feels less like a chunky power bank and more like slipping a slim wallet or card holder into your pocket. With bigger packs I usually debate whether to even bring them, but this one? I just throw it in my pocket without thinking.
The soft-touch material: the attaching side isn’t rough or plasticky—it’s smooth, almost luxurious. Actually feels good against your hand/skin.
It charges AirPods wirelessly: Didn’t expect it to work, but it does. Super handy.
**The design details:**The charging light hides behind translucent plastic, so it glows subtle and clean instead of screaming “cheap blinking LED.” Legit one of the nicest-looking power banks I’ve ever seen.
Size vs. a regular pack: Put it next to my 10,000mAh Anker brick and the difference is insane—this thing is dramatically slimmer and way easier to carry.
The cons:
$100 for 3,000mAh is… yeah, steep. You can grab 25,000mAh bricks for the same price.
No wireless recharge for the battery itself (no MagSafe puck support). USB-C only.
No real battery indicator—just orange when dying, green when charged. No idea how much is left unless you guess.
Pretty much exclusive to the iPhone Air. Doesn’t really fit other devices.
At 3,000mAh it’s not a heavy-use solution. If you’re traveling or powering multiple devices, you’ll still want a bigger 10,000mAh+ pack.
Overall: If you’re an iPhone Air user who likes to travel light, this thing is perfect. Apple clearly leaned into slimness with the phone, and this accessory nails the same vibe -tiny boost, premium feel, disappears in your pocket. I’ll still pack my bigger brick for long trips, but for daily carry? This one’s staying with me.
