Anker MagGo 622 Magnetic Battery REVIEW | MacSources

One snap to charge your iPhone series 12 or 13.

In my opinion, you can never have enough portable charging options. I love that MagSafe charging is now available for iPhones (series 12 and higher) because it makes accurate charging easier.

The Anker 622 Magnetic Battery (MagGo) is a 5000mAh foldable magnetic battery that also features USB-C for charging connected devices or recharging itself. It’s specifically designed for the iPhone 12/13 series phones and is available in five different colors (Dolomite White, Interstellar Gray, Buds Green, Misty Blue, Lilac Purple).
