I’m in the process of overhauling my entire arsenal of chargers now that the world is finding common ground when it comes to charging tech — whether voluntarily or not. The iPhone 15 finally features a USB-C port, and I anticipate upgrading from my iPhone 12 Pro Max this year to exile Lightning cables from my life for good. Thankfully, though, my last-gen phone is keeping up with the evolving wireless charging landscape just fine thanks to its newly gained support for Qi2.
I’m glad I’ve been forced to wait on adopting the new magnetic charging standard, as that means I can now take advantage of discounts like the one we’re currently seeing on Anker’s Qi2-ready MagGo power banks. The Anker MagGo Power Bank (10K), the 10,000mAh version with a built-in kickstand and an LED display, is available at Amazon right now in select colors starting at just $69.99 ($20 off), which is the first discount we’ve seen since the power bank arrived late last year. It’s also on sale from Anker for the same price through May 27th with offer code WSPEV22ONZXB.
The kickstand model’s 10,000mAh capacity is ideal for bigger devices, as it allows you to squeeze out close to two full charges on an iPhone 15 Pro. The integrated display, meanwhile, can tell you the exact capacity remaining and the total time to charge. You can even use the same USB-C port you use for recharging the power bank to charge various devices at up to 27W speeds, which is useful if you’re pressed for time.
If you can get away with a smaller power bank, you can also save 20 percent on the 6,600mAh model, the Anker MagGo Power Bank (6.6K), which uses the battery bay as a weighty base. The latter is available for $55.99 ($14 off) when you clip the on-page coupon at Amazon, which is a mere $7 more than its all-time low. It’s also on sale at Anker when you apply offer code WSCPV2ZVMS7Z at checkout.
The 6,600mAh alternative doesn’t have a built-in display or reverse USB-C charging, but the stand offers more flexibility since you can adjust the angle between 35 and 65 degrees. Both devices also support passthrough charging, allowing you to charge both the power bank and your phone simultaneously, and the new Standby feature in iOS 17, which can showcase the time, photos, or your calendar when your phone is mounted in landscape orientation.
Since they both use the new Qi2 standard, you can use either to charge any MagSafe-compatible iPhone at speedy 15W speeds. Anker says it can bring an iPhone 15 from empty to 50 percent in just 44 minutes. Without Qi2 or true MagSafe certification, that speed would effectively be halved, as most Qi chargers only offer 7.5W charging speeds (with iPhones).
