Best MagSafe power banks for your iPhone in 2024

If you’ve ever been in a situation where you brought your power bank on a road trip, but forgot the cable, you’re not alone. If your phone happens to be one of the newer iPhones though, there is a way out – MagSafe power banks.

These are specialised power banks that don’t need additional wires to charge your phone, and can be used directly. Here’s all you need to know about them, and why you may want to get one.

What are MagSafe power banks?

MagSafe power banks are wireless power banks that use Apple’s signature MagSafe technology to magnetically align the wireless charging coils in a charger and the one behind your iPhone to transfer power using electromagnetic induction.

In simpler terms, this is wireless charging with the added benefit of magnetic fastening. Thanks to the magnetic alignment, MagSafe chargers can snap exactly into place and this ensures the best possible charging speeds, unlike non magnetic wireless charging, where improper alignment can slow down charging significantly.
