Low profile, charges well.

Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2024

This thing is lightweight, and sleek. Very easy to stow in your pocket while installed, or not. It charges easily through my MagSafe case. At first, I felt it was charging extremely slow and I regretted my purchase. But I turned off optimal charging and now it works great. This supposedly wears out your battery faster, but I don't keep phones longer than for 2 years anyway so that's not a big deal. Also, it does turn your phone pretty hot if you're using it while charging!

Happy with this.

A little slow to charge phone but sitting on my desk, very convenient to keep my phone charged. Haven't needed to carry it but works perfectly for my needs.

Flimsy kickstand

Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2023

Pros;
-Nice little portable battery bank for traveling to charge your phone up to full about once.
-Slim, looks very nice, aesthetically pleasing.
-The charging port works both ways, to charge the battery bank, and charge your phone.
-I like that you can charge the battery bank and your iPhone at the same time.
-iPhone's newest iOS feature of "Standby Mode" works great, but only if you change how you use the kickstand. (Read con below)

Cons;
-The instructions on using the kickstand (what you see in pictures of product) is VERY WEAK. Any movement of your phone, tapping something on your screen, even with the slightest touch, will cause this to flop back. The magnet that holds it up just does not work. I found to instead fold it into a small triangle into itself, not using the magnet of the flap works best. If you use this horizontally instead though, the intended magnetic flap works fine.
-I've had this thing bug out on me where it just stops charging out of nowhere after a minute or two. I have to press the button to reset, or completely remove my phone and re attach for it to work again. My battery can be at any % and this would happen.
-It gets WARM. I've had this battery get so hot, iPhone gives you a warning message and pauses charging.

Better than the V1, stronger magnet and side charging

Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2024

I have the version 1 and apple battery pack that used to cost $99. The apple pack is better, charges faster, recharges faster, and is smaller. It's also twice as expensive. However, they don't make it anymore so you don't care. I use this to keep cables off my phone. It basically will charge my iPhone 14 max pro around 50%. That is hours of use. However, it takes hours to charge the battery, and the charge rate is pretty slow. These are the best made of all the non-apple batteries I have used. I would not go with more capacity to keep the weight down. Also, the stand is a very good design. It is very easy to recommend this battery. My years-old version 1 is still working. Most of the other batteries I have bought lasted a few months and broke. This is a no-brainer for the money and will make your old phone battery last like it was new or your new one go forever.

Portable and functional

Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2024

This power bank from Anker is one of my favorites. The portability and functionality of this product is almost unmatched. As it doubles as a stand for your phone while it charges, and it has a silky wonderful finish that adds to the quality of this product. Anker Is the best at what they do and it shows with this power back. Highly recommended!

In my opinion this is a emergency battery

Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2024

I like the small size to be able to carry around, but I will say, this battery pack holds very little juice, cannot charge a Iphone 14 pro max fully, youll get about 65% charge from 0, does the job but I definitely feel it can only be used in case of emergency

I've been looking for the perfect magnetic battery pack, this isn't it

Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2023

I have been looking at various magnetic battery packs, and because this one seems to be quite popular, I decided to give it a try. Although it isn't awful, it doesn't check all of the boxes for me. But, it does check one that others don't.

I am mainly using this with a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra with a magnetic case. I have also used it on an iPhone 14 Pro.

This is a small, slim pack. That is good because it isn't too heavy to carry around. It is just about the same size and weight as the Apple product, but this one supposedly packs more battery capacity. Even though this is advertised as 5,000 mAh, don't think you're going to charge your phone a couple of times with it. Wireless charging has a lot of loss, they are just plain inefficient.

Design: This is a magnetic pack that snaps onto the back of your phone or magnetic compatible case. It is thin and light, it is just about the same size and weight as the Apple product. Many videos I have seen about this product show that there is a USB type C connector on the bottom, which can interfere with using the table and the kickstand at the same time. Mine arrived with the USB type C and status LED's on the side, so Anker must have redesigned this item a bit since many of the video reviews were made. The kickstand is a fold-out flap that sticks to the back of the battery magnetically to form a base so you can stand your phone up on an angle. The stand is very weak and falls over easily. I can get it to hold up my phone, but if I touch the phone, it will fall over. This also goes for using it with an iPhone 14 Pro.

One stand out feature is that this pack will "trickle charge" your phone; so far I haven't found any other packs that will do this (the Apple does not - at least on Android, and the Anker 633, the "big brother" to this pack, does not). What this means is that you can put this on your phone when it is 100% full, and it will keep your phone at 100% until the pack is empty, and then your phone will start to use its battery up. The phone does not show that wireless charging is in progress - but the phone just stays at 100%. It kept my Galaxy S22 Ultra at 100% for about 12 hours, and at that point the pack was dead and my phone battery took over. When trickle charging, the pack might get a bit warm, but not overly hot. When charging at a higher speed (such as if your phone is not up to 100%) the pack will get much warmer, especially if you are also using the phone at the same time. Some people report it is overly hot - but I found it to be warm, but not hot. Still, heat and battery charging are not a good mix - they will shorten battery life.

The magnetic attaching power of this pack is fairly weak compared to others I have tried. The Apple pack is definitely the strongest, and the Anker 633 is also stronger than this model. This can actually move around on the back of your phone a bit and if you have your phone in a pocket, might actually even come off. I was very disappointed in the magnetic attaching power of this pack.

PROS:
Small enough to carry in your back pack as a spare
Will trickle charge your phone to keep it at 100% (haven't found any others that will do this)
USB C port on the side (if you get one with it on the bottom, get it replaced with the newer design)
Tested on Android phone with a magnetic case

CONS:
Kickstand is a joke - don't rely on it. At least it doesn't take up spare or add weight
Not a huge amount of capacity, especially because wireless charging is inefficient
Can get warm when charging and phone is also in use
Poor magnetic attaching power.

These types of packs are really for emergency use. Because wireless charging is so inefficient, and charging a battery and then dumping that power into a phone is also lossy, you should seek out a connected charger when possible. But because this is so small and light, it is something you can easily keep in a back pack, in your car, or in a drawer for that emergency time when you find your phone didn't charge and you need to leave and get your phone charging. But with the abundance of charging options, even in cars, and places to plug in, the usefulness of an item like this is really questionable. Now that I'm done testing it, I will put mine away and I honestly can't envision a time when I will absolutely need it.
