My smartphone always seems to run out of battery at the most inconvenient times, like when I’m lost and trying to use Google Maps, urgently trying to send an email or when a flight lands at a far-flung, confusing airport and I’m desperate to call an Uber. I do my best to keep a phone charger handy, but it’s not always possible to get access to an outlet.
For this reason, a good portable charger is an absolute game-changer, and I’m always on the hunt for one with a light, slim silhouette and speedy charging abilities. Recently, I noticed that my TikTok “For You” page had become inundated with recommendations for the iPhone-specific Anker 622 MagGo magnetic wireless portable charter, and my interest is officially piqued.
This ultra-convenient charger has a magnetic feature that allows you to snap your iPhone into place securely, delivering a quick and effective charge free of cables. But if you do need to charge the power bank itself, you can plug it in via USB-C cable without having to remove or stop using the portable charger with your phone. The device is as slim as it gets, so it won’t weigh down your purse or add too much excess bulge to your pocket as many portable chargers can.
The feature that is most appealing to TikTokers is the fact that this charger also doubles as an iPhone stand thanks to a built-in, foldable kickstand that holds your phone in an upright position, so you can prop it up on a table and use your phone to stream shows, read emails or scroll through social media while it gets juiced.
It’s compatible with iPhones 12, 13, 14, and 15 and has 5,000mAh which can deliver a continuous current for up to five hours. It has 4.3 out of 5 stars and over 5,100 five-star ratings at Amazon. TikTokers say that the magnet is strong with a good grip that won’t slide off your phone and that the sleek .5-inch silhouette can fit in just about any size bag.
You can purchase the Anker 622 MagGo in five colors including black, white, soft blue, dusty green and lavender. Keep reading to check out reviews from happy customers over at Amazon and pick one up for yourself. (I already have one locked and loaded in my cart).
Promising reviews:
“Super compact, lasts long! I love this product. I use it when I’m traveling or if I am going to be out all day with no plug. This product was great for Disneyland. I like that you can use it as a stand to hold your phone. 10/10 recommend.” — N. Noriega
“Don’t know what I’d do without this. Just got mine but what a lifesaver it has been! Used it twice and I can’t believe how convenient and easy using the charger is. Much better than having to find and outlet and plugging the phone in. And the stand on he back is great too. Good purchase for me!” — Cheryl Davis
“My all time new favorite magsafe gadget for whenever I am traveling or spending a day at a theme park! Helps my phone stay on all day when waiting around in queue lines. Definitely a must have whenever I go to disneyland or any other amusement park. Anker always makes high quality battery packs that last all day. but paired with magsafe makes it the most portable battery bank i’ve owned” — Oscar G.
“I originally purchased one of these for international travel. When I got home, I bought one for each of my kids, and three as gifts. These things are fantastic. Not only are they relatively small, but the folding stand is really useful. I didn’t think I’d use it much, but I used it all the time. My family has used this with multiple iPhone models (12 mini, 14, 15, 15 Pro) and we’re all happy with it.” — The Civilized Outdoorsman
“This power bank from Anker is one of my favorites. The portability and functionality of this product is almost unmatched. As it doubles as a stand for your phone while it charges, and it has a silky wonderful finish that adds to the quality of this product. Anker Is the best at what they do and it shows with this power back. Highly recommended!” — Samuel Stewart
