Best budget power bank: MagSafe vs 35W fast charging
A power bank is the cheapest way to never run out of battery. We sell two very different ones — a 35W fast wired charger with lots of capacity, and a slim magnetic MagSafe power bank that snaps onto your iPhone.
What to look for in a power bank
- Capacity: 10,000mAh gives roughly two phone charges; 5,000mAh about one.
- Charging speed: Higher watts (like 35W) mean less time plugged in.
- Wireless or cable: Magnetic MagSafe banks snap onto compatible phones — no cable needed.
- Size: Smaller banks slip into a pocket; bigger ones last longer.

Common questions
- Does the magnetic power bank work with Android?
- It's designed for MagSafe-compatible phones like recent iPhones. Other phones may need a magnetic ring or case.
- Can I take a power bank on a plane?
- Power banks under 100Wh — which includes both of these — are generally allowed in hand luggage, not checked bags. Check your airline's rules.
- Is a cheap MagSafe power bank any good?
- For a top-up during the day, yes. A 5,000mAh magnetic bank gives roughly one charge and is far slimmer than a wired bank, so it's ideal for pockets and short trips.
- How many charges does a 10,000mAh power bank give?
- Around two full phone charges for most phones, depending on your battery size and how fast you charge.
