Wireless Portable Charger 30,800mAh 15W Wireless Charging 25W PD QC4.0 Fast Charging Smart LCD Display USB-C Power Bank, 4 Output External Battery Pack Compatible with iPhone 16/15/14/13, Samsung etc

I panicked when my iPhone 8 Plus’s lightning port stopped charging, then I learned that the 8 plus was the model when Apple started including MagSafe charging in it. I purchased this power bank primarily for the size and the magnetic charging capability. When it arrived it was at 34% power, but it was able to get my phone back up to a relatively good power level using magnetic charging much faster than I typically could with a lightning cable.The capacity of the battery is huge, so it took overnight to charge it to 100% via the USC-C input — I recommend that you use a high output brick (eg, 2.1 A output, not 1.0 A like the older bricks are) to get it charged faster. The battery has to be initially on in order for the magnetic charging to start, you can’t just put the phone on it and expect the battery to auto-detect that it’s there when it’s off. I found that it does NOT do magnetic charging of a phone when you are charging the battery pack— this is a minor inconvenience since I can always use the battery to completely charge my phone and THEN plug in the USB-C cable to charge the battery. The digital display gives an exact charge value, and I found that if I had my phone off and let it charge, my iPhone 8 Plus’s battery would go up about 4% for every 1% change in the battery pack’s charge. That theoretically means 4 complete charges before the pack is drained, though I typically don’t let it get that low to find out.The construction of the battery pack seems solid, and although it warms up slightly if you are doing magnetic charging, it doesn’t get hot to the touch. It IS a bit chunkier than most battery packs, about the size of a iphone plus with the thickness of a deck of cards, but I don’t mind that since you’re getting such a huge battery. The unit comes with a tiny USB-A to USB-C cable, so realistically you’ll need your own longer cable to charge it if the brick is more than a few inches from the battery.All in all, I’m very pleased with my purchase. I’ve only had it two days, but right now I recommend it if you are looking for a decent portable magnetic charger for an older iphone or other standard Qi devices.9/24/23 update: Two weeks in and the battery pack is still going strong. One thing to note: I have a non-MagSafe (but thin) Speck case for my phone and it charges through that. There’s no magnetic click so you have to line things up right (basically just flush the edges of the iPhone with the battery), but it charges well. I’m guessing that it might click with a MagSafe case, but I’m just guessing, I don’t know for sure. So if you don’t have a MagSafe case, you need to make sure that the iPhone doesn’t move around while it’s charging wirelessly. I just lay it right on top of the battery as it lies flat on the table and it works just fine. I’m still very happy with this purchase, and can’t believe the price — I saw wireless batteries with 1/8th the capacity selling for more at Target.

I have several different power banks, most of them are quite good and work fine for 1 to 2 charges of my Samsung S22 Ultra. But THIS one - I can get at least 4 charges, I think more than 5. And because it's wireless, I don't have to worry about having or losing a charging cable. I do carry a short USB-A to USB-C cable and with the fast charging port on this power bank it charges my phone completely in just about an hour. With wireless charging which is fast but not quite as fast it's about 1 hr and 20 minutes. I've had it two years now, traveled extensively with it and it is absolutely reliable. I've even accidentally dropped it a few times (one time really bad) and it has held up (knock on wood!) and works perfectly still. It does take a few hours to charge up but I don't charge it up often because realistically I'm using it when my phone is down to about 20%, so I can do that around 10 times before it dies. I usually charge it once a week (or even every 2 weeks) and usually when I get home from work one day I put it to charge and then remove it from charging by bedtime and it's full. And you always know how much power is left because of the display. REALLY awesome. And it charges with USB-C which is what everything mostly is these days so charging cables are easy to get (just make sure it's a USB-C that can handle fast charging). I just came back onto Amazon to buy another and it's on sale so I'm buying TWO - one additional for my sister who travels internationally for work a lot, so I'm getting hers in pink. Might even buy 3 as it will be a perfect gift for my brother whose birthday is coming up - yeah I'm buying three. Also gonna buy a case to protect it this time. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS - also my reason for having a 2nd one is because whenever we have upcoming bad weather that may take out our power I charge all my power banks but THIS one especially is the first to get charged because it's so powerful. Great for travel and emergency but also for every day use. Oh, it IS a little bit bigger and heavier than my other ones, but not by much, very little, and for the added performance you can't go wrong. If you want something really lightweight and smaller there are tons out there and they cost a little bit less, BUT you sacrifice power (10k mah usually) which is 2 to 3 charges! And that might be fine for just getting through a regular day - but for a real backup, for a one power pack solution, this is the way to go.

Pros: Its size. 30,000mah is HUGE. The display easily indicates how much power is left. It takes USB-A, USB-C power delivery and takes both MicroB in and USBC in. It is simple, easy to use, effective. Not really much to say beyond it works. The wireless charging can be a bit finicky, and I'd prefer wire for travel anyways for reliability and transportability. It doesn't get hot while using.Cons: Weight. As others have said, this thing is heavy but the use case has to be understood. This is not meant to compete with the portable 5-10k chargers other brands sell. This is meant to be a sling or backpack carry, a travel companion, etc. Lets be realistic, at 30,000mah it can charge an iPhone 14 Pro nearly 7 times from 0-100%. This is great for companion travelers or families where multiple users need power simultaneously. It does charge slow itself, but remember the size. Charge it overnight before you head out, and it'll be full.
