Our review
The Anker 622 MagGo is the magnetic battery that made wireless power banks actually convenient — a 4.3-star product across more than 15,000 ratings. It's ultra-slim, about half an inch thick, and it snaps onto the back of a MagSafe iPhone (16/15/14/13) with a satisfying magnetic click, then charges it wirelessly with no cable to carry or fumble. The clever extra is a fold-out kickstand built into the back, so you can prop the phone up in landscape and watch video hands-free while it tops up. With Anker's name behind it, the safety and build are a cut above the generic magnetic banks, and there's a USB-C port on the side for wired charging too.
Honest expectations: at 5,000mAh this is a top-up, not an all-day power station — it'll get a modern iPhone roughly three-quarters to a full charge, so it's built for slim convenience rather than maximum capacity. Wireless charging is inherently a little slower and warmer than a cable, and the magnetic grip works best on a bare phone or a thin MagSafe case — a thick non-MagSafe case will weaken the hold or block it entirely. It's also tuned for iPhones; Android phones without a magnet ring won't stick. Take it for what it is — a pocketable, cable-free magnetic top-up with a handy stand — and it's one of the most genuinely useful phone accessories you can buy.

FAQ
How much will it charge my phone?
About three-quarters to a full charge of a modern iPhone — it's a 5,000mAh slim top-up designed for convenience and pocketability, not an all-day power station.
Will it stick through my case?
Best on a bare phone or a thin MagSafe case. A thick or non-MagSafe case weakens or blocks the magnetic hold.
Does it work with Android?
It's tuned for MagSafe iPhones. Android phones can use it with a stick-on magnet ring, otherwise it won't grip and align.
Can I charge it and use it at the same time?
Yes — it charges your phone wirelessly while you scroll, and the built-in kickstand props the phone up for hands-free video.
