This iPhone magnetic power bank is our overall winner as it is a champion in terms of both recharging capacity and speed where its closest competitors win on one or the other. It has a large capacity, refilling a iPhone 16 Pro twice over in our tests—equalling the best we’d seen before. We run the iPhone’s battery down, recharge using the power bank, and keep doing this until the power bank is empty.

What makes this power bank special—although not unique—is its short built-in USB-C cable that can be used for fast-charging an iPhone 15 or 16 or refilling the power bank itself. The cable fits neatly away when not in use at the bottom of the power bank.

Wirelessly it will work with any MagSafe iPhone (12/13/14/15/16) at 15W. iPhone 15 and 16 users can connect via the integrated USB-C cable or a separate longer cable via the side USB-C port if required, for faster 30W charging. Owners of earlier iPhones can use a USB-C to Lightning cable instead for fast 20W wired charging from the power bank. Note that the iPhone 16e does not work with magnetic wireless charging.

The Baseus Nomos power bank, reviewed below, matches it for wireless charging speed as both use 15W Qi2 technology. They also boast faster wired charging via their similar built-in USB-C cable. In our recharging tests it beat the Nomos by spreading its 10000mAh battery capacity for longer: 190% vs 166%.

The 10K Anker Zolo matched the 10K EcoFlow Rapid on recharging capacity in our tests, but has a slower 7.5W wireless charging speed.

No 10K magnetic wireless power bank can match the EcoFlow on input speed—that is the rate at which it is recharged itself. Its 65W input is much faster than the 30W boasted by the Baseus or the 20W of the Anker.

While winning on charging performance and capacity, the EcoFlow Rapid is reasonably chunky compared to the Anker Zolo and Baseus Nomos, and notably bulkier than smaller-capacity 5K power banks. It’s still pocketable but the slightly larger size is the compromise for the other benefits. If you want a slimmer battery pack, look for a smaller 5000mAh option—we’ve tested the best slim power banks further on. It has a handy pull-out kickstand at the back.

This power bank is clearly built for the iPhone 15 and 16 families—with its neat integrated USB-C cable—but it works as well as any other wireless power bank tested here with the other MagSafe iPhones, and that built-in cable can be used to charge the power bank itself.

We love this iPhone magnetic power bank for its large capacity, which was (albeit narrowly) the best in our recaharging tests. It refilled a faded iPhone 15 Pro twice over in our tests—the best we’ve seen. The EcoFlow Rapid 10K power bank was very close in our tests, but is a little larger and heavier and with a less affordable price-tag.

The 10K Anker Zolo is rated at just 7.5W for wireless charging as it is only “MagSafe compatible” rather than using certified MagSafe or Qi2 magnetic wireless technologies. That said, if you need to recharge quickly you can use its built-in 5.5-inch USB-C cable that can be used for fast-charging an iPhone 15 or 16 at 30W or refilling the power bank itself at 20W. The cable can be neatly hooked into a loop for easy carrying. Owners of earlier iPhones should use the side USB-C port and a separate Lightning cable for 20W wired charging from the power bank.

Where the Anker Zolo wins is its value: it wins on capacity where it loses on charging speed, but it’s easily the best value if you don’t mind the charging speed compromise.

There are smaller-capacity 5K power banks, but the 10K Anker Zolo is still very pocketable for such a high-capacity battery pack. It’s around the same size as other 10000mAh MagSafe power banks we’ve tested—except for its sibling the Anker MagGo 10K Slim, reviewed below. Our overall best 10K magnetic power bank, the EcoFlow Rapid 10K, is noticeably bigger, although still portable.

The Baseus Nomos Magnetic Power Bank could easily be our number-one choice as the best magnetic power bank, with its built-in USB-C cable, 15W Qi2 wireless charging and best-in-class 45W wired output and 30W input.

In those charge-speed aspects it beats the Anker Zolo Magnetic Power Bank and matches the 10K EcoFlow Rapid, both reviewed above, but it is let down slightly by its performance in our battery capacity tests. While its 166% recharge score is high, it is not as full of power as the Zolo (191%), which is also cheaper, or similarly priced Rapid (190%).

Choosing between the power banks with built-in USB-C cables is therefore one of charging speed (EcoFlow or Baseus) vs charging power (EcoFlow or Anker) and size (smaller Anker and Baseus). You can’t go wrong with each of them as they are all great choices and super convenient for iPhone 15/16 users with their integrated cables.

• Colors: Black, White, Pink, Teal

At just 0.58 inches thick, this 10000mAh power bank rivals even some of the 5000mAh battery packs in terms of slimness. It’s also lighter than any other 10K magnetic wireless power bank that we have tested, and wins too on recharging power. It’s only the integrated USB-C cable that pushes us to recommend the Anker Zolo or Baseus power banks for owners of the iPhone 15 and 16. While I admire that rival feature, I admit that the Anker Slim is the magnetic power bank in my backpack every day.

It uses fast Qi2 magnetic tech, so can wirelessly charge at an impressive 15W. If you have a spare cable with you, it can charge at twice that speed via its USB-C port. This makes it a as fast a wireless charger as the Baseus Nomos reviewed above. The Baseus charger is more convenient with its built-in USB-C cable, but owners of iPhones 12/13/14 might appreciate the ability to add a Lightning cable to the USB-C port and charge that way. Wired charging via Lightning is limited to 20W—a limitation set by Apple to ensure device safety and performance, not by the cable or the power bank.

In our tests it performed among the best of the 10K magnetic power banks we have put through their paces: recharging an iPhone 15 Pro to 188% (over the course of two iPhone charges from one power bank charge).

It’s available in up to four colors depending on your country and where you buy it—the pink and teal versions are available only direct from Anker.

While a little bigger and heavier than the Anker MagGo 10K Slim, the the oddly named Benks MagClap StandGo Power Bank’s battery capacity was decent (160%) in our recharging tests. It lacks a built-in USB-C cable but it works well wirelessly clamped to your iPhone, and is the most affordable 10K battery pack that we have tested and approved.

It also boasts two USB ports. You recharge the battery pack itself via the USB-C port at 20W, and you can also use this port for faster-than-wireless cable charging, also at 20W when you’re in a hurry for power. The bonus USB-A port can charge at 18W, so you could charge three devices simultaneously at decent speeds.

Around the same size as the Anker Zolo power bank, reviewed above, the Anker MagGo Power Bank (10K) didn’t quite match that battery pack in terms of recharging but was still impressive—around the same as the Baseus Nomos.

Where it beats the Zolo and matches the Nomos and EcoFlow Rapid is in wireless charging speed. The Anker MagGo is certified for the new Qi2 standard and so supports 15W wireless charging. This works with all MagSafe-supporting devices: from the iPhone 12 to 16. (Note that the iPhone 12 doesn’t officially support Qi2 but Macworld iPhone 12 Qi2 tests suggest that it does.)

The Zolo/Nomos/Rapid have a slightly more powerful cabled charging spec (30W vs Anker’s 27W) but the difference is negligible. We like the integrated USB-C cable included with those power banks, but any decent USB-C charging cable can be used with the MagGo to fast wire-charge an iPhone.

Aside from faster wireless charging, the Anker boasts a easy-to-read LED display that shows you exactly how much charge is left in the battery pack. It also features a solid pull-out stand at the back.

If you want speedy wireless charging, the Qi2 Anker MagGo Power Bank is as fast as you’ll get with a portable battery pack.

Much bigger and meaner than the power banks reviewed above, the Raycon 5-in-1 Power Bank can charge five devices simultaneously: two through the USB-C and USB-A ports, one wirelessly through MagSafe, and two through the built-in cables (USB-C for iPhone 15/16 and Lightning for older iPhones).

In our tests, it was very close in battery charging power to the top scorers—charging an iPhone 15 Pro nearly twice over.

It claims to offer 15W of wireless power but isn’t officially certified by Apple, so we rate it at 7.5W for wireless. There are two integrated output cables: one USB-C for iPhone 15 and 16, and one Lightning for older iPhones and Apple devices. If you don’t have any Lightning-based devices this will be superfluous, although friends in need of power may thank you if their iPhones are older. Most people’s AirPods are still Lightning based, so you may well find a use for it.

It features built-in U.S. plug prongs so can be connected straight into a power socket rather than requiring a separate USB-C charger. This is fine for users based in the U.S. or Canada, but not for international users. The power bank even features a handy pull-out phone clip that holds your phone upright, although the placement of the cables means the battery pack can’t charge your phone while it’s in the mini stand.

Unlike the more svelte power banks reviewed here, the Raycon 5-in-1 Power Bank is too big and bulky to let you slip the iPhone plus battery pack into your pocket. As a portable power bank you might carry in a bag on your travels, but not your pocket.

Eugen Wegmann

As the built-in plug prongs work in the U.S. and Canada only, it’s not much help to international buyers. A similar alternative that does fare better around the world is the $139 Journey Axie 3-in-1 Global Wall Charger & 10k Power Bank (£99 in the U.K.), pictured above, which is about the same size and weight as the Raycon and features a built-in USB-C cable and a USB-C port plus of course features a wireless charging pad. While the Raycon can service five devices, the Journey can cope with only three but it does have plug heads for U.S., U.K., E.U. and Australia/N.Z. It is also faster at charging via USB, with a maximum 35W output

A third plug-in-the-wall power bank option is the Infinacore P3 Pro, which costs $129 / £102, and can charge four devices at the same time, including an iPhone at 15W Qi2. It lacks the integrated USB-C cable found on the Raycon and Journey power bank chargers but as it plugs directly into a wall power socket you won’t need to carry a cable to recharge the power bank itself. Like the Journey battery pack, it comes with U.K., E.U, and AU/NZ travel adapter plug heads. As well as the Qi2 charging pad, there are two USB-C ports and one USB-A.

The P3 Pro also boasts an excellent display, showing charging speed, battery status, temperature, and charge time remaining. We recommend this power bank for MacBook users who want a portable 65W charger with MagSafe for wireless iPhone charging, plus USB options. The Raycon and Journey aren’t as suitable for laptop charging, but the P3 Pro’s 65W is enough to keep most MacBooks going when connected.

While a wireless charging pad saves you the bother of carrying a cable around to charge your phone from a power bank, you still need a wall charger to hand to recharge the power bank itself… but not with the PhoneSuit Journey Mag, which features foldable North American plug prongs so you can plug the battery pack straight into a power socket. While plugged in, the power bank can charge the attached iPhone wirelessly at the same time as recharging the battery pack.

Two further USB ports are also handy. The USB-C port can charge at 20W, so much faster than the 7.5W MagSafe-compatible wireless charging pad—but you will need a USB-C cable in this instance: USB-C to Lightning for iPhones older than the iPhone 15, and USB-C to USB-C for the 15 and 16. The USB-A port can charge another device at up to 18W.

5K battery packs are slim enough to clamp to your iPhone and still slip into your pocket. While 10000mAh power banks boast larger re-charging capacity, if you want a slightly smaller and lighter battery pack with a stand, we recommend you choose between this power bank—the smaller sibling of our recommended best 10K magnetic power bank—and either the Belkin BoostCharge Power Bank 5K + Stand or Ugreen 5000mAh Magnetic Wireless Power Bank, both reviewed below.

All three have a 5000mAh battery but the Belkin won in our head-to-head recharging tests, recharging a faded iPhone 15 Pro by 79% compared to the 5K EcoFlow Rapid (70%) and Ugreen (68%). For the biggest recharge, Belkin wins.

Where the 5K EcoFlow Rapid gets the overall nod—especially for owners of the iPhone 15 and 16—is its built-in USB-C cable. No other 5000mAh wireless power bank we have tested has the handy integrated cable. Several of our favorite 10K battery packs have built-in cables but this is the first 5K power bank to boast one. Even if you have an earlier Lightning iPhone, the integrated cable can be used to top up the power bank itself.

It features 15W Qi2 wireless charging when clamped to the back of an iPhone, and can be charged with a cable at a speedy 30W.

There’s an interesting battle for the crown of smallest, slimmest and lightest magnetic battery pack between three of the power banks reviewed and tested here

The Baseus PicoGo 5K is a tiny bit shorter and less wide than the Vonmählen Evergreen Mag but almost exactly the same slim depth and is 13g lighter. It is precisely the same weight (111g) as the Infinacore M3. We think it’s the sweet spot between the three.

Recharging our iPhone 16 Pro to 71%, it performed much better in our battery tests than the smallest power bank (Infinacore: 56%) and very slightly better than the slimmest (Vonmählen: 70%), although that will charge faster at 15W compared to the PicoGo’s 7.5W.

There is a larger capacity 10K Baseus PicoGo (4 x 2.7 x 0.6 inches; 6.2oz) that is about the same credit-card length and width but noticeably thicker in depth than the 5K, as you’d expect from a much more powerful battery pack.

Solid-state batteries (SSB) are a new technology that promise to be more powerful, sustainable and safe than conventional Lithium-ion rivals by using a solid rather than liquid electrolyte. The Kuxiu S2 is actually “semi solid-state” but it’s still the first SSB power bank that we’ve tested.

One of the benefits is that you should get as much as twice as many charges from the pwer bank before it starts to degrade: 1,000 vs a normal power bank’s 500. It should also be more robust and safer to carry and store.

The Kuxiu S2 performed very well in our charging tests, matching the Belkin BoostCharge at 79%. With Qi2 it wirelessly charges at 15W.

OneAdaptr has recently updated its OneGo 3-in-1 iPhone/Watch/AirPods charger and portable power bank, and made it even more compelling a solution. No longer is the power bank a separate part. Now the Watch and AirPods charging modules flip out from the back of the iPhone wireless charger, and the power bank can recharge all the devices.

We have tested a lot of great portable MagSafe wireless chargers but this is the smallest 3-in-1 iPhone/Apple Watch/AirPods charger that doubles up as a power bank. The 10000mAh battery capacity is high, and in our tests, we managed to get around one and three quarters recharge of an iPhone 15 Pro, which is impressive. That’s higher than with the similar iPhone/Watch charging Alogic Lift power bank (1.5 charges).

You can get slimmer and lighter 10K power banks but not with built-in Apple Watch and AirPods charging stands. We have tested and reviewed 10K battery packs that offer greater charging power: the Baseus Magnetic 10K Power Bank (187%) and Anker MagGo 10K Slim (188%) both offer better performance but of course, lack the integrated Apple Watch and AirPods modules.

Yes, it’s a little larger and certainly heavier than most of the wireless power banks reviewed here, but it’s a neat solution if you are away from a power source when all your Apple devices ping you that terrifying Low Power Mode suggestion.

The Apple Watch charging module flips up from the back of the power bank and feels robust enough to survive in-bag travel. It charges at 2W rather than 5W so doesn’t support Apple Watch Fast Charge but it will inject the juice that your Watch requires when you need it—no Move calorie counting or Exercise minutes need be missed.

There is one USB-C port (the Alogic Lift has a USB-A port for older cables) for input or faster wired iPhone charging (18W).

The Alogic Lift MagSafe and Apple Watch power bank is a little fatter but shorter than the OneAdaptr OneGo, reviewed above. While very similar, it lacks the OneGo’s base with AirPods charging pad but it does boast two USB ports to the OneGo’s single input/output port.

One USB-C port is for input or faster wired iPhone charging (18W); and the USB-A port is there for older charging cables. You could use either port to charge your AirPods or another iPhone. While you can use both at the same time, simultaneous USB charging does drop power pace to just 5W.

The robust-when-folded Apple Watch charging module charges at 3W rather than 5W so doesn’t support Apple Watch Fast Charge but it is a little faster than the 2W OneGo Watch charger.

If you don’t need the AirPods charging pad, the Alogic Lift is as able and expert as the OneGo.

This Mophie battery case for the iPhone 16 family (omitting the 16 Plus) feels more robust in its two part design than the version for the 15. It again offers less recharge potential than its rival but is significantly slimmer and lighter with its smaller battery capacity.

This more affordable battery case for all models of iPhone 16 is noticeably wider and fatter than the Mophie Juice Pack but that’s because it hosts a larger battery, which means you get more recharge potential at the price of the bulk.

The iPhone charges wirelessly within the case, which means less stress on the port but the ensuing compromise means that charging is notably slower. That shouldn’t matter while you are on the road and the capacity will keep your iPhone going for longer.

No wireless charging here because the Juice Pack is a protective case with an internal battery. The iPhone is charged via a wired USB-C connector, so charges faster and more efficiently than a wireless-only power bank.

Mophie has designed this battery case to be as slim as possible while still offering enough recharge power to get your iPhone to over a half full battery. The other iPhone 15 battery case we tested, the Newdery Battery Case for iPhone 15, reviewed below, comes in two much larger battery capacities (5K and 10K) but the cases themselves are much heavier and bulky.

It’s a two-piece design that fits the iPhone well, and offers robust protection from knocks, bumps and drops. The top part did slip off a couple of times in testing from a tight trouser pocket but should fare better from a coat or bag. If you want a one-piece iPhone battery case choose one of the Newdery battery cases, reviewed below.

The Mophie Juice Pack is available for all iPhone 15 models except the 15 Plus. If you have an earlier iPhone model, look for options with the Newdery battery cases below.

The Newdery Battery Case offers full protection and nearly a full battery recharge, and this dual function makes it a cheaper alternative to a MagSafe case and MagSafe battery pack. However, some may find the bulky design too chunky, although the case for the iPhone 15 Pro itself weighs just 134g.

The 5000mAh Newdery Battery Cases scored around 95% in our tests, with the 10K battery cases reaching an amazing 168%.

Those test results are from the iPhone 15 Pro models, but Newdery has battery cases for all the recent iPhones. Newdery iPhone Battery Cases on Amazon US | Amazon UK | Amazon CA.

Some models are wireless compatible themselves so can be charged itself on most Qi charging pads.

If you desire protection as well as longer battery life, the Newdery Battery Case offers both in an affordable package. It is much cheaper than the Mophie Juice Pack reviewed above.
