As part of the EcoFlow early Prime Day Sale , the brand has launched another flash sale saving you up to $1,149 on four units. One of those units is the 3,072Wh DELTA 3 Ultra Portable Power Station down at $1,199 shipped , beating out Amazon by $500. While it carries a newer $1,599 MSRP since the brand made permanent price cuts earlier in the year, its still been seen climbing as high as $1,999 at Amazon, though its only gone as high as $1,699 since mid-September there. This deal matches the Prime Day pricing we saw in June, with the $400 markdown off the going rate landing it back at the second-lowest price we have tracked $95 above the one-time and short-lived Lightning deal low from early March.

Best magnetic power banks and MagSafe portable chargers for iPhone 2026
Macworld Portable power banks that charge your phone are popular, but wireless battery packs using Apples magnetic MagSafe technology offer a simpler and smarter cable-free solution for iPhone 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 and Air users. Phone batteries are prone to run dry just when youre heading away from a power source, so having a portable charging source is one of todays necessities. Annoyingly, most power banks require you to carry around a cable, too. Wireless power banks do away with cables but come with their own major limitationthe inefficiency of wireless charging means you need a high-capacity power bank to fully charge a drained iPhone. MagSafe is a technology thats compatible with all iPhone 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, Air and Duo models, from the mini to the Pro Max, but strangely missing from the 16e model. It allows accessories to clamp magnetically to the back of the iPhone, making the charging connection more efficient. We havent yet had an iPhone Duo in for testing with these magnetic power banks, but the new folding iPhone is MagSafe friendly. We put the best portable chargers through a series of rigorous iPhone recharging tests, and have listed the winners by power, portability and functionality: Best high-capacity 10k MagSafe power banks Best small portable 5K magnetic power banks Best multi-device charging MagSafe power banks Best capacity magnetic power bank for you You should consider size when it comes to a power bank: physical size and battery capacity. The higher the battery capacity, the more recharging power youll get from the power bankbut youll also be carrying around a larger, heavier item. Lighter, slimmer power banks are easier to pocket even when clamped to your phone. Larger power banks might not fit in your trouser pocket and can slide off easier when pocketed even if clamped magnetically. 10K power banks (with a 10000mAh battery capacity) can charge a phone close to two times over, while 5K (5000mAh) battery packs usually stretch between 60-75%, which is often enough to get you to the next wall-socket powering opportunity. If you are relying on the power bank for long-haul travel or a camping trip, a 10K battery or higher will suit you better. Belkin even offers a mid-range 8K power bank. Milliamp hours ( mAh ) is quite a blunt measurement of battery capacity. Its great for quickly differentiating between power bank sizes but we also list the capacity in the more accurate watt hours ( Wh ). Also, look out for power banks that are built using the latest semi-solid-state battery technology that uses less liquid electrolyte than standard litium-ion power banks, making them more durable, longer lasting, and safer. Wireless power bank charging speed Wireless charging speeds vary from 7.5W (MagSafe Compatible) to 15W (certified MagSafe and Qi2), all the way to the very fastest wireless charging at 25W (Qi2.2). While its not as efficient as using a cable to charge a phone, magnetic wireless charging is a step closer to doing away with cables altogether. Qi2 25W brings wireless charging close to wired speed but only iPhones 16 and later support that speed, and some power banks include a built-in USB-C cable for even faster charging up to 45W. The iPhone Air can manage 20W max on even a 25W charger. See Which wireless tech is best for your iPhone? . We have listed the speeds at which each portable power bank can be charged itself ( Input charger ) and charge the iPhone ( Output charger ). The higher the wattage, the faster the charging should be. Best high-capacity 10K MagSafe power banks A 10000mAh (10K) battery is the sweet spot for both power and portability. 5000mAh (5K) power banks reviewed further down are slimmer, lighter and easier to pocket, but generally offer a maximum of 70-80% recharge potential versus a 10K power bank that should be able to recharge an iPhone at least one and a half times over.

A semi-solid state (SSS) power bank is more energy-dense than a traditional liquid electrolyte power bank because its semi-solid electrolyte is less prone to leakage and thermal runaway. SSS is therefore more durable, safer and offers more charge cycles so will last longer. Indeed, not only does it tick those boxes but its also boasts three other top-end features: a built-in USB-C cable, integrated kickstand, and super-clear digital battery display. Only the iPhones 16/17/18 support the very fastest wireless tech Qi2 25W, and only the iPhone 15 and later have a USB-C charging port. Older iPhones (from 12 on) can use a 25W charger such as the S3 but are pegged back at 15Wstill faster than the 7.5W found on cheaper power banks. Switch to wired charging via the integrated USB-C cable and youll achieve up to 35W so even faster. The S3 has a 10000mAh (10K) battery capacity and managed to recharge that same iPhone to 177%so up to 100% then another 77% when it came to a second recharging task. Thats not the top score weve had in our 10K power bank tests: the champ so far is the Ugreen MagFlow Air 10K , which scored an unmatched 208%, with the EcoFlow RAPID 10K and Anker MagGo Slim scoring 190% or closeboth are reviewed here. But 177% is above average. The same company offers two other 25W magnetic power banks: the similar S4 reviewed below, and the K1 Ultra (reviewed in our multi-device section below) that has a neat slide-out panel that can charge your Apple Watch or AirPods at the same time as the iPhone.

It also is the current (non-pun intended) champion in our 10K power bank recharging tests. Its performance in our recharging tests really wowed us. It scored 208%, so two full charges and a trickle on the third round. The previous champ, the EcoFlow RAPID 10K , scored 190%. There are a bunch of environmental factors that come into play each time you charge but theres no doubting that the MagFlow Air is an ace. It may be helped by its CryoPulse TEC Active Coolingit even has a screen thats meant to show the liquid cooling in action. Simon Jary If you want a slimmer alternative, the Ugreen MagFlow Air Magnetic 10K Power Bank (pictured above) actually matched the MagFlow Pro in our recharge tests but is slower at 15W wireless. At 0.53 inches (13.9mm) its also nearly as thin as the Kuxiu S4 , the slimmest 10K battery pack reviewed below. Like the Pro MagFlow it boasts a built-in USB-C cable (30W vs 45W). Theres even a 5K MagFlow Air model, reviewed with the other small power banks further down, and that too won its class on battery capacity.

Its a little lighter but a tiny bit wider, and it scored with a similar result in our iPhone recharging tests. It beats the S4 with 45W wired charging (but matched it on 25W wireless) and by including a detachable (but not built-in) USB-C cable. Its also available in a wider range of colors. Unlike the S4 its not semi solid state, which may mean it can perform fewer recharge cycles although it will take you a long time to find out. There are two USB-C ports but total output is pegged back to 15W when more than one id used at the same time. Its neat base-mounted digital display is helpful and better than most LED indicators but the S4s display shows a bit more information if you need it. The S4 also features a kickstand, missing from the SnapGo Air.

While it lacks the S3s super-useful and powerful built-in 30W USB-C cable, it measures up in terms of slim profile. At just 13.7mm thin, its the slimmest 10K power bank weve tested (equakl with the Iniu SnapGo Air 10K , reviewed above). The S3 and most 10K power banks look chunky in comparison. If you want thinner, you need to switch down to a 5K capacity power bank. Its integrated kickstand is not quite as robust as that found on the S3 but it does the job well enough, and its digital battery display carries even more charging information. Youll need to bring your own cable to switch to wired charging for 30W output. The S4 recharged our test iPhone to 182%, so a little higher than the S3 but close enough for the difference to be down to environmental factors such as temperature.

Its sole USB-C port is rated at 45W so will charge your iPhone much faster than wireless if you need to power up as quickly as possible, but youll need to bring a USB-C cable as it doesnt come with its own built-in as you find on some power banks. 45W USB-C, also found on the Ugreen MagFlow Pro and Baseus PicoGo AM52 , is the fastest weve seen on a magnetic power bank. The Anker MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro has two charging modes, which you activate with the charging button while looking at the display. Silent Mode is without the fan on, and Cool Mode is with the fan working for slightly faster charging. You can tap through six screens on its large, informative digital display to check charging status, battery level, battery health, and temperature, or quickly switch Silent and Cool charging modes and wireless charging on or off.

What makes this power bank specialalthough not uniqueis its short built-in USB-C cable that can be used for fast-charging an iPhone 15, 16 or 17 or refilling the power bank itself. The cable fits neatly away when not in use at the bottom of the power bank. Its the highest rated weve tested with 65W input and output. Wirelessly it will work with any MagSafe iPhone (12/13/14/15/16/17/18) at 15W. iPhone 15/16/17/18 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 banks port. Note that the iPhone 16e does not work with magnetic wireless charging. For faster wireless charging, consider the new generation of Qi2 25W power banks such as the Kuxiu S3 , Baseus PicoGo and Iniu SnapGo Air reviewed here. That said, the 25W power banks we have tested didnt match the EcoFlow or Ugreen MagFlow Air on battery capacity in our tests, although they are not too far behind. No 10K magnetic wireless power bank can match the EcoFlow on input speedthat is the rate at which it is recharged itself. Its 65W is much faster than the average 30W input speed. While winning on charging performance and capacity, the EcoFlow Rapid is reasonably chunky compared to the Ugreen MagFlow Air , Anker MagGo Slim and Benks ArmorGo , and notably bulkier than smaller-capacity 5K power banks. Its 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 optionweve tested the best slim power banks further on. It has a handy pull-out kickstand at the back.

That might not sound a lot but when youre in a rush to charge your phone, every minute counts. 25W wireless charging is limited to the iPhone 16 to 18 families, running at least iOS 26; older iPhones will charge at 15W using this power bank. Most 10K wireless power banks are around 22mm deep, so the 16mm-thin Baseus PicoGo Magnetic 10K Power Bank (AM52) is one of the slimmest weve tested. The Kuxiu S4 reviewed above is even slimmer at just under 14mm but the AM52 is certainly thinner than most. The AM52 is an output blazer is more ways than one. It is certified Qi 2.2 so charges wirelessly at 25W, as fast as the Ugreen MagFlow reviewed below, and like the MagFlow also boasts an option with a built-in USB-C cable. And if you choose wired charging, you can access output at 45Wequal fastest of any magnetic wireless power bank reviewed with the Iniu SnapGo Air, Ugreen MagFlow Pro and Anker MagGo 2 reviewed above.

When recharging an iPhone, it refilled our test 16 Pro more than one and a half times, scoring an impressive 182% in the Macworld Recharge Score. The Baseus PicoGo AM52 costs $69.99 / 59.99 for the model with no integrated cable and $79.99 / 69.99 for the AM52 with cable built in.

Only the 13.7mm Kuxiu S4 and Ugreen MagFlow Air are thinner. Its also one of the lightest 10K magnetic wireless power bank that we have tested, and scores highly on recharging power. A built-in USB-C cable would be nice but its lack keeps the MagGo slim as its name suggests. It uses Qi2 magnetic tech, so can wirelessly charge at 15W rather than Qi2.2s 25W. If you have a spare cable with you, it can charge at twice that speed via its USB-C port. This makes it as fast a wireless charger as the EcoFlow RAPID reviewed above but slower than the bulkier Kuxiu S3 or S4 . The EcoFlow 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. In our tests it performed well: recharging an iPhone 15 Pro to 188% (over the course of two iPhone charges from one power bank charge). Its available in up to four colors depending on your country and where you buy it, including pink and teal versions. Theres an even slimmer 5K Anker Nano model, reviewed below.

It even has a little RGB light show going on. They dont mean much but they do look pretty. At 25W its super fast for iPhone 16 to 18, and it maintains power output throughout by having built-in active cooling. Note. though. that this fan is quite noisy in operation but it should mean more reliable faster charging. Older iPhones will charge at a more sedate 15W.

The rose gold color also looks rather nice. Benks doesnt call it that (or anything) but thats how it looks with a pleasing weave pattern. Its Qi2 so capable of 15W chargingno longer the fastest but what was until recently the cutting edge of wireless power. It scored a decent 165% in the Macworld recharging tests so will give you over 1.5 charges before it, too, needs filling upwhich, by the way, it takes its time doing as the 15W input power is less than on other power banks. Benks also offers an equally tough and super-slim 5K Aramid Fiber model, although it is only MagSafe Compatible so a slower charging experience at 7.5W.

The P604 is a curious 10K power bank in a couple of other ways, too. In the U.S. it claims to have a USB-C power output of 65W, which would put it right at the top of the charts in terms of wired charging, as well as it boasting Qi2.2s 25W wireless charging. However, because thats a burst speed that cant be maintained throughout the charge, in some other nit-picking regions (e.g. the U.K. and E.U.) it is listed as a 45W wired charger. 45W is still extremely fast for an iPhone, but dont be surprised to sometimes see it listed as either 65W or 45W or both, which is a little confusing. As a result, well regard it as 45W here, but you might get an initially faster charging experience with this power bank tahn with others when using a cable. The other variance to other power banks is its slightly humped back in comparison to the flat form of most portable chargers. It means its a little shorter but thicker than most. All that said, it performed well in our recharging tests with a score of 185%. It has a USB-C cable permanently attached but its not integrated to the battery pack.

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 padbut 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, 16, 17 and 18. The USB-A port can charge another device at up to 18W. The 10000mAh battery capacity allowed us to charge a faded iPhone to 100% and then again another 50%, which is about average for this size battery. Best small portable magnetic power banks If you carry your power bank around with all day, in your bag or pocket, a slimmer, lighter magnetic/MagSafe power bank will suit you better than a larger, heavier 10K battery pack. They are also easier to pocket when clamped to your phone. The Anker MagGo 10K Slim Power Bank, reviewed above, is just 0.58 inches thick and weighs only 200g but these 5K magnetic power banks will take up even less space in your bag or desk drawer, and are easier to pocket with iPhone attached.

Where the 5K EcoFlow Rapid gets the overall nodespecially for owners of the iPhone 15, 16, 17 and 18is 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 top 30W speed. You can find faster 25W 5K power banks reviewed below, and also thinner models with higher recharge scores but the EcoFlow offers a greater mix of features with its integrated cable and kickstand.

At 6.8mm, its easily the slimmest magnetic power bank weve tested, and it performed the best of any 5K power bank too. Solid-state electrolytes are replacing flammable liquid electrolytes with more stable, efficient materials that allow for smaller, more compact, and safer battery designs. Semi-solid-state cells reduce flammable liquid to a fraction of that found in standard lithium-ion batteries. Its not all about sizethese batteries are safer and should last significantly longer with a greater number of cycles before the battery degrades. In our battery recharge test the BMX SolidSafe Air 5K achieved an impressive score of 89%, among the highest of all the magnetic wireless power banks we have had in the Macworld Labs. The SolidSafe Air features the usual four LED battery indicator lights. If you want a display with more detail, its plain (non-Air) BMX SolidSafe sibling (available in Black, Blue, Silver or Orange) boasts a great digital screen that is much more informative.

While thats only 1% more than the BMX SolidSafe Air 5K , reviewed above, and 2% higher than the Statik State 5K Power Bank , reviewed below, it beats the Ugreen by being a little slimmer (8mm vs 8.6mm) and faster at 25W (vs 15W). Using a semi-solid electrolyte helps this portable charger hit such a high recharge score and remain thin and lightweight with a higher energy density in a compact design.

We have since tested the Statik State 5K Power Bank , which performed even better (88%) in our recharge challenge but is slower (7.5W) at wireless racharging. One of the benefits of semi or solid-state batteries is that you should get as much as twice as many charges from the power bank before it starts to degrade: 1,000 vs a normal power banks 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.

It is also faster than the M3 Mini and Phonesuit Elite Mag Slim at wirelessly charging as it supports Qi2, and in our tests it recharged an iPhone 16 Pro from 0% to 70% before requiring a power-up itself, which easily beats the Infinacore and just shades the PhoneSuit.

The Elite Mag Slim from PhoneSuit has a large digital display showing off the exact remaining charge that is more accessible than the usual four LED dots found on most power banks. This battery pack is also notable for its slimness, which is equal to the Vonmhlen Evergreen Mag , reviewed above. The Vonmhlen power bank narrowly beat it in our tests but certainly not significantly so, but it does charge faster wirelessly (15W vs 7.5W) than the PhoneSuit. The PhoneSuit Elite Mag Slim Pro is a 10K version, with a recharge score of 149%, and the same bright easy-to-read display for just $10 more but deeper (0.5in vs 0.35in). Best multi-device charging MagSafe power banks if you own AirPods and an Apple Watch as well as an iPhone, look for MagSafe power banks that charge multiple Apple devices at the same time. As power banks these should still be portable, but often convert into charging stands when in use. Most are two large to slip in your pocket with the phone attached but they are useful for when you are away from base and need to power up all your favorite Apple kit.

Lets not knock it, though, as this is a super Qi2.2 iPhone magnetic power bank that can wirelessly charge your iPhone at the very fastest speed. The other multi-device magnetic power banks reviewed below are limited to 7.5W wireless iPhone charging. That will take around 90 minutes to charge an iPhone to 50%, where this power banks 25W wireless output reduces that charging time to a mere 30 minutes. Noe that only the iPhone 16, 17 and 18 benefit from 25W wireless charging; older iPhones will charge at 15W using this power bank. The back section of the K1 Ultra cleverly clicks round like a rotated Rubiks Cube to show off its Qi module that can charge Watch or AirPods at 5W.

You can snap it onto your iPhone and start using it to shoot photos or video with its one-touch shutter, plus charge your device at the same time. The ergonomic grip supports better framing, and it can attach to a tripod with a quarter-inch screw mount for steady photo or video capture. In our Recharge Tests it scored 160%, which means it powered an iPhone 16 Pro from 0-100% and then another 60% before it was drained itself. As its not quite a full 10K power bank (with a 9.3K battery) this holds up pretty well with the less functional but smaller and slimmer power banks reviewed here. Featuring a 29.5-inch (0.75m) retractable cable, it can also charge the phone at 20W, which is handy if youre in a hurry as the wireless charging is only MagSafe Compatible, and therefore slow at 7.5W. It has a spare USB-C port, too, so can simultaneously charge three devices. Its quite large and heavy compared to the other magnetic portable chargers but youll buy it as much for its camera grip as the battery pack. Statik SmartCharge Pro Multi-iPhone magnetic travel 15K battery pack Pros High battery capacity Integrated U.S. plug prongs U.K., E.U, AU/NZ adapters Built-in USB-C cables 2x USB ports Watch fast-charge Cons Too bulky for a pocket Not great on simultaneous charging 25W models are faster Price When Reviewed: $99.99 Best Prices Today: Retailer Price Statik $99.99 View Deal Price comparison from over 24,000 stores worldwide Capacity: 54Wh (15000mAh) Input charger: AC, plus USB-C (45W) Output charger: Wireless (15W), USB-C cable (60W), USB-C (60W), USB-A (18W) Macworld Recharge Test Score : 235% Battery type: Lithium-Ion Weight: 13oz (370g) Dimensions: 4.3 x 3.5 x 1.3 inches (110 x 90 x 33mm) Colors: Black, Orange Much bigger and meaner than the power banks reviewed above, the Statik SmartCharge Pro can charge through its USB-C and USB-A ports, an iPhone or Apple Watch wirelessly through a magnetic charging pad, and one through the built-in USB-C cable. As a portable power bank you might carry in a bag on your travels, but not in your pocketits one to rest on a table rather than in actual transit. In our tests, it demonstrated its 15K battery capacitycharging an iPhone 16 Pro nearly two and a half times over. It even recharged a flat 14-inch MacBook Pro to 54%. Certified Qi2, the iPhone wireless charging pad is rated at 15W. There is an integrated 60W USB-C output cable, as well as a 60W USB-C port and 18W USB-A. Its not so great at charging multiple devices at the same timewhen using all the ports simultaneously they share a maximum 15W output. If you want to get the 60W charging use either the USB-C port or cable and have nothing else hooked up to the power bank. 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. You can quickly charge the power bank plugged into a wall AC socket, but during recharging the output is reduced to 20W on the port and cable until the battery is at 100% when the charging returns to 60W. If you need a higher-wattage standalone USB-C wall charger, check our reviews of the best USB-C chargers . The U.S. plugs are fine for users based in North America, but not for international users, so there are U.K., E.U, and AU/NZ plug adapters included making it work in those countries and as a travel companion. Statik has a non-Pro version, the 10K SmartCharge Gen 2 , which features two integrated 15W USB-C cables, plus 20W USB-C and 22.5W USB-A ports. In our tests, it was very close in battery charging power to the top scorerscharging an iPhone 16 Pro nearly twice over. This version isnt available in the Pros bright orange color. The first version of SmartCharge Gen 1 has one USB-C for iPhone 15/16/17/18 and a Lightning cable for older iPhones. if that suits you better, Amazon still has stock at the time of writing. Dominik Tomaszewski / Foundry Another plug-in-the-wall power bank option is the Infinacore P3 Pro , pictured above, 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 Statik power bank but as it plugs directly into a wall power socket you wont need to carry a cable to recharge the power bank itself. Like the Statik 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.

Also check out our tests of the best iPhone chargers for wired charging solutions, and of course to refill your iPhone power bank. How we tested MagSafe charger testing was conducted using an iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro and 16 Pro, subscribed to a 5G network and WiFi, with screen off and all default settings. Our test is a simple battery recharge shootout. We let our test-unit iPhone Pro (3095mAh battery capacity) drain to just 10% and then set the Battery Pack to work recharging the phone. We then assigned the charger a score of whatever percentage it managed to charge the iPhone to and subtract the 10%; we test each model at least twice. Its not a real-world test of day-to-day use where youll likely be using your phone for various tasks (of varying battery usage) and in different environmental conditions and network configurations. But it does give us a common score format that we can use to compare different battery-pack models. Why is magnetic wireless better? The MagSafe connection to Apples iPhone is precise enough to make wireless charging more efficient as around 20% of non-magnetic power loss is from poor placement of a phone and the wireless charging pad. Standard Qi wireless charging can lose as much as 50% of the portable batterys power, but MagSafe and Qi2 wireless charging loses just 30%. Hot out of the gadget laboratory, the new Qi 2.2 (also known as Qi2 25W) brings even faster 25W wireless charging for the iPhone 16, 17 and 18. 15% will be plenty fast enough for most of us but who doesnt want the fastest possible charging when your iPhones battery icon is in the red? Why comparing Watt Hours is better than Milliamp Hours Phone batteries are generally rated in Milliamp Hours (mAh) but this is a measure of electrical charge, while a Watt Hour is equal to one watt of energy consumed for one hour of time. When comparing battery capacities and how much a power pack will boost a phones internal battery, energy is more important than electrical charge. And mAh ignores a battery voltage, which determines the wattage (power) of a battery. If the mAh is the same, the higher the voltage, the greater the actual stored power. For example, Apples MagSafe Battery Pack is rated at just 1460mAh but it has a higher voltage potential (7.62V) than the iPhone (3.81V) or other battery packs, meaning that it can provide more power to an iPhone than its mAh suggests; in fact, it is actually 2920mAh. To go into further depth about this read our feature iPhone battery capacities compared that also lists all iPhones battery life in mAh and Wh. Anatomy of a magnetic power bank TORRAS A lot more than a battery goes into the making of a magnetic power bank. Of course, the battery is the most important component, but the wireless charging coils and magnetic connection are vital for efficient and therefore fast and powerful charging. The transmitter coil transfers power by electromagnetic induction. The magnets need to be set up to exactly connect the transmitting coilshere on the power bank to the receiving coils, in this case inside the iPhone. The example shown above is the Torras MagStall Wireless Power Bank, reviewed in our chart. You can see the various parts, including that power banks rotating stand/handle. Which magnetic wireless tech is right for each iPhone? iPhone 7 and earlier: Dont support wireless charging. iPhone 8 iPhone X/XS/XR: Support wireless charging. iPhone 8 and later can charge wirelessly at 7.5W but on a less efficient non-magnetic Qi pad. iPhone 11 and earlier: Dont support MagSafe. iPhone 8 and later can charge wirelessly but on a less efficient non-magnetic Qi pad. iPhone 12 iPhone 15: Support MagSafe and Qi2. Can wirelessly charge at 7.5W with MagSafe-Compatible power banks and chargers, and at 15W with certified MagSafe or Qi2 power banks and chargers. iPhone 16 iPhone 18: Support MagSafe, Qi2 and Qi2.2. Can wirelessly charge at 7.5W with MagSafe-Compatible power banks and chargers, at 15W with certified MagSafe or Qi2 power banks and chargers, and at 25W with Qi2.2-certified power banks and chargers. Is charging via a cable faster or safer than magnetic wireless charging? Charging via a cable is nearly always faster than wireless, even the latest Qi2.2 wireless chargers. Wireless charging is inefficient, losing some of its energy transfer through heat, for example. MagSafe, Qi2, and Qi2.2 magnetic connections dramatically improve efficiency but sticking a cable in is still a faster method, if not as convenient. Most magnetic wireless power banks include at least one USB-C port, and some even include a port and an integrated cable for ultimate convenience. Models after the iPhone 17 can charge to 50% in 20 minutes or under via a cable and a 45W or higher charger or power bank. But wireless is so simple and cable-free that we dont mind waiting an extra 15 minutes or so to reach such a charge wirelessly. Why does my phone occasionally charge slowly or even stop charging? This phone charging behavior is due to the built-in battery management feature on your iPhone. A phone heats up during charging as power is exchanged between the chargers coils and the iPhones own. The phone actively adjust its charging behavior accordingly. This can slow down or temporarily pause charging to protect battery health and extend its lifespan. This is completely normal. Once the phone cools down, charging will automaticallyresume as normal. What is a semi solid state battery? The material that carries ions back and forth inside a battery is called electrolyte. Traditional lithium-ion batteries use a volatile, free-flowing liquid for electrolyte. As their name suggests, solid-state batteries use a solid material such as a ceramic or polymer. But semi-solid-state batteries are more common in todays new generation of power banks. A semi-solid-state battery uses a mix of solid particles in a much smaller amount of liquid, making a hybrid thick gel, paste or slurry. By reducing the liquid content to a minimum, semi-solid-state batteries increase stability and durability and significantly lower the risk of leaks, fires, and dangerous thermal runaway. What about non-wireless power banks? Wireless chargingespecially magnetic wireless chargingis super convenient and does away with the need to carry around messy cables to connect your device to the battery pack. But wired charging is nearly always faster and not much of an inconvenience if you are not out and about. Over on our sister site Tech Advisor I have reviewed the best power banks that includes standard non-wireless battery packs that might be a decent solution as well as the power banks reviewed above. Do magnetic power banks work when the iPhone is in a case? Yes, most quality iPhone cases are compatible with MagSafe having their own magnet ring to ensure a close connection between the power banks magnetic charging coils and the iPhones own. You can find exactly which are supported in our roundups of the best iPhone 17 cases , best iPhone 16 cases and best iPhone 15 cases .

That matters more than usual in 2026 because Apple raised iPad prices substantially in June. The standard iPad now starts at $449/429, the iPad mini at $599/599, the 11-inch iPad Air at $749/749, and the 11-inch iPad Pro at $1,199/1,199. Retailer discounts can therefore save hundreds compared with buying directly from Apple. But not every iPad deal will be worth grabbing. The M4 iPad Air and M5 iPad Pro are both relatively recent models and arent expected to be replaced until 2027, making a strong Prime Day discount easy to recommend. The situation is different for the iPad mini. Apple is widely expected to introduce a new model soon, potentially before the end of October, with an OLED display among the biggest rumored upgrades. And while the current A16 iPad probably wont be replaced until early 2027, it remains the only iPad Apple sells that doesnt support Apple Intelligence. Below, were tracking the best October Prime Day iPad deals and explaining which discounts are genuinely worth taking and which models you may be better off waiting for. Of course, Prime Day isnt just for iPads. If youre looking for a new Mac, Apple Watch, or set of AirPods, check out our big roundup of the Best Apple Prime Day Deals . Best Amazon Prime Day iPad deals M4 iPad Air Best Prime Day buy Apple Inc The iPad Air is Apples only tablet to get an update in 2026 (so far) and we havent seen much in the way of significant savings yet. The various sizes and storage configurations have been hovering at $40-$50 off for several weeks, so we expect Prime Day to bring lower prices of around $100 off. But if you want a full-sized tablet, the Air represents the sweet spot for screen size and performance. With Apple driving up iPad Air prices by $150/150 grab a bargain while you can. U.S. Prime Day price: Theres $100 off nearly every iPad Air on Amazons U.S. store. Get iPad Air, M4, 11-inch, 128GB for $649 U.K. Prime Day price: Amazon U.K. hasnt yet cut prices on the iPad Air, beyond a 50 saving on a 13-inch model with 128GB storage. Wed hold out for discounts on the rest of the range unless thats the one you want. Get iPad Air, M4, 13-inch, 128GB for $899 iPad Pro Buy if you need the power Apple Inc The iPad Pro is Apples best tablet, with the fastest chip, most RAM, and best display. Its probably more tablet than you need, but if you dont mind paying a premium, which is even higher now than it was before the price hikes in June, youll be getting an incredible tablet. U.S. Prime Day price: Amazon is currently slashing the price of the iPad Pro by $100 . We also spotted a M4 iPad Pro with a deal that puts it $400 below the equivalent model. Get iPad Pro, M4, 13-inch, 256GB for $1,299 U.K. Prime Day price: Amazon has not yet dropped U.K. for the iPad Pro by more than 12, so wed hold out for better deals. We have previously seen considerably lower prices, including 929 for the 11-inch model. Watch Amazon's iPad Pro page iPad (A16) Only buy at a substantial discount Apple The A16 iPad remains Apples cheapest tablet, but Apple raised its price by $100/100 in June, and it is the only current iPad without Apple Intelligence. A new iPad is expected later in 2026 or in early 2027, likely with a newer processor, more RAM and Apple Intelligence support, so we wouldnt recommend paying close to the current $449/429 price. If Prime Day brings the 128GB model below its pre-price hike price of $349 we might consider it, but wed prefer to see it drop more than that. It remains a very good budget iPad for browsing, streaming, schoolwork and everyday use. U.S. Prime Day price: At $399, wed pass. A price around $349 would restore its old Apple price and make it more appealing, while anything significantly below that would qualify as a genuinely strong Prime Day deal. Get iPad, A16, 128GB for $399 U.K. Prime Day price: In the U.K. the best discount so far is 20 off. Get iPad, A16, 256GB for 509 iPad mini Buy cautiously: replacement expected very soon Apple Be particularly careful with iPad mini deals this Prime Day. The current A17 Pro model is an excellent compact tablet with Apple Intelligence support, but it launched in October 2024 and could be replaced within weeks. October is now the leading launch window for the next iPad mini , with reports pointing to an OLED display and newer processor. We wouldnt pay close to Apples $599/599 price. A substantial Prime Day discount could still make sense if you need one now and dont care about OLED, but otherwise this is the iPad wed be most inclined to wait for. U.S. Prime Day price: Theres $100 off the iPad mini at Amazon U.S. Get iPad mini, A17 Pro, 128GB for $499 U.K. Prime Day price: Just 5 off the iPad mini so far in the U.K. Come back later. Watch Amazon's iPad mini page iPad Prime Day price watch Based on recent reviews and pricing trends for Apples iPads, these are our buying recommendations: Model Lowest Ever U.S. Price Lowest Ever U.K. Price Buying Advice iPad (A16) $271.29 299 The standard iPad is the best value option, especially if it falls to, or below, $299/299 . There are trade-offs to consider, including lack of support forApple Intelligence,though, and a new model is expected in the next few months. iPad mini (A17 Pro) $349 399 The iPad mini is an excellent compact tablet, but a new model with an OLED display could arrive soon. At $399/399 or less it may still be worth buying if you dont care about OLED; otherwise, wed wait. 11-inch iPad Air (M4) $520 578.99 The iPad Air offers high-end performance and portability without the premium price of the iPad Pro if you can find it for less than $560/570 , all the better. 13-inch iPad Air (M4) $700 768.99 The 13-inch iPad Air is ideal for users who need a large screen for multitasking or creative projects, but do not require the features of the Pro model. An easy recommendation at $ 699/749 , if it drops to that level. 11-inch iPad Pro (M5) $800 929 We think this is the best tablet on the market for power users and creative professionals. If the price dips below $800/929 we recommend buying. 13-inch iPad Pro (M5) $1,149 1,169.10 If you want the ultimate iPad laptop and find the 13-inch iPad Pro for around $1,149/ 1,149 we recommend it.

Theres an iPad for everyone. Foundry iPad:The budget recommendation The standard iPad is the best choice if price is your priority. Its powerful enough for everyday tasks, streaming, schoolwork and casual gaming, but its the only current iPad that doesnt support Apple Intelligence. With a replacement expected in early 2027, wed look for a substantial Prime Day discount. iPad mini:Best for portability The iPad mini is the best choice if you want maximum portability, but wed be cautious about buying one this Prime Day. A new model could arrive later in October, with an OLED display among the expected upgrades. Only buy the current model if the discount is good enough to compensate. iPad Air:Best choice for most buyers The M4 iPad Air is the best choice for most people and probably the safest Prime Day buy. It offers considerably more performance than the standard iPad without the expense of the Pro, comes in 11-inch and 13-inch sizes, and isnt expected to be replaced until 2027. iPad Pro:Best for professionals/creative users The M5 iPad Pro is aimed at demanding creative and professional users who will benefit from its performance and OLED display. Its also safe to buy this Prime Day, but most people will get better value from the iPad Air. For more advice read our guide to the Best iPad . Prime Day iPad deals to avoid Dominik Tomaszewski / Foundry When deciding whether to shop for an iPad deal, we recommend you keep a few things in mind: If youre considering an iPad as a laptop replacement, remember to factor in the price of a keyboard. Adding an Apple keyboard case can add hundreds to the cost and, depending on the iPad, push the total close to or above the price of a MacBook. The arrival of the lower-cost MacBook Neo makes that comparison even more important. Be particularly cautious about iPad mini deals. The current A17 Pro model could be replaced as soon as later in October, with an OLED display among the expected upgrades. Unless the Prime Day discount is substantial, you may be better off waiting. The iPad (A16) is currently the only tablet in Apples active lineup that does not support Apple Intelligence. A replacement is expected in early 2027, so avoid paying close to Apples full price. A substantial discount, however, can still make the current model a good-value choice. Deals on older or refurbished iPads can be tempting, but check software support before buying. iPadOS 27 drops support for several older models, so make sure the iPad youre considering can run the current operating system. Avoid paying extra for a Cellular model unless you truly need it. Cellular versions cost significantly more and may also require a monthly data plan. If you usually carry an iPhone, Personal Hotspot is often a cheaper alternative. Casual users should also think twice before jumping on an iPad Pro (M5) deal. Unless you need its OLED display or additional performance for demanding creative and professional workflows, the M4 iPad Air offers better value for most people. Likewise, dont pay extra for the iPad Pros nano-texture glass unless you regularly work in bright or uncontrolled lighting. Should you buy an iPad during Prime Day? October Prime Day is one of the better times of the year to buy an iPad, particularly after Apple raised iPad prices substantially in June. Amazons October sale often comes close to Black Friday pricing, so a good deal could offset much of Apples price increase. The model you choose matters, though. The M4 iPad Air and M5 iPad Pro are relatively safe buys because neither is expected to be replaced until 2027. The A16 iPad can also be worth buying at a substantial discount, although it is the only current iPad without Apple Intelligence. Wed be much more cautious about the iPad mini, as a new model could arrive soon after Prime Day. There are a few other things to consider before making a purchase: Prime membership is required : Many of the best deals are exclusive to Amazon Prime members. If youre not already subscribed, you might be able to take advantage of Amazons 30-day free trial or you could sign up for a month and cancel afterward. As well as getting free two-day shipping, Prime customers also get access to Prime Video and Music. Prime memberships cost $139 / 95 annually, or $14.99 / 8.99 / AU$6.99 every month. Other sales : If you miss Prime Day, youll have another chance to save during the Black Friday sales in November which historically brings some of the lowest iPad prices of the year. Student Discounts : Students can save significantly through the Apple Education Store. For example, students can save $50/50 on the iPad Air and $100/100 on the iPad Pro when shopping at Apples U.S. Education Store or Apples U.K. Education Store . Compare Prices : Amazon isnt always the cheapest option. Retailers such as Walmart and Best Buy frequently run competing promotions around the time of Prime Day, so its worth comparing prices before buying. Prime Day is available in multiple countries, including Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Mexico, the Netherlands, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, the U.K., and the U.S. Why you can trust Macworlds recommendations The Prime Day iPad deals picked here are all chosen by our editors, who have decades of experience with Apple devices.
