The Apple MagSafe Battery Pack..Why IT'S THE BEST! 

The Apple MagSafe absolutely is the best. Two words: power management. It knows when to sip and it knows when to pause, regular power banks only have one mode: charge all the way. The integration is top tier and as you rightly mentioned, when used properly you will be up to 90% on your phone late in the evening. It will keep your phone battery in tip top condition as well. A 5-star device from Apple.

Another thing I like about it is that It's heat sensitive. If you're power-using your phone with the pack attached it will stop charging if your internal battery gets too hot and resume when it cools down. An excellent feature for battery preservation.

This youtuber deserves his silver button. I've watched youtubers where almost all of them just discuss the technical side of things but most doesn't consider how it integrates with the gadget itself. Gadgets always has two sides, how it runs and how it is being used.

You can not overstate the fact that the Apple battery back is not! a power bank, just like you said, its a battery EXTENDER, like opening up your iPhone and putting a larger battery into it… via MagSafe

8 months later using the  battery pack my battery health is still at a 100%

About once every dozen or so videos they get it right and it’s nice to see you have gotten it right. The Apple MagSafe battery pack is a battery extender and it’s meant to be attached to a fully charged iPhone to maintain the charge level in the phone at about 90% for as long as it can. It adds many more hours so the phone can be charged less often. As this device is basically a trickle charger it doesn’t do any harm to the iPhone battery unlike many other battery packs

After seeing the first video where you mentioned the setting to not charge past 90% I started using my Apple MagSafe battery pack differently and it has been a GAME CHANGER

Dude, you got me. Instant subscribe. Looking forward to seeing what else you teach me in your other videos. I didn’t know this and your ability to explain is excellent. Cheers man!

I have both, love both; they both serve their own purrpose. Agreed, I see a lot of hate on the Apple one, it's very simple if people just understood what it is, and how to use it. Glad you put out this video, hopefully more people educate themselves before knocking a product. Cheers man!

This!!! Love how you simple explain its use cases and give real world examples. It’s crazy because none of apples battery cases have ever been designed to charge from 0-100. They were always designed to keep your phone between 90-100 and preserve the battery health while doing so. So I’m confused why people are all upset and confused that it doesn’t have a lot of MAH. It will charge it from about 0-50 depending on your device, but it’s literally to keep your phone at 90, so when it dies later in the evening, your phone will still have a high charge. I love mine and I don’t go anywhere without it because of that peace of mind.

Glad to see a thorough explanation of this battery use. I plan to get one for my 13 mini and assumed the best way to use the battery pack was just to throw it on once i got to around 20% left. Now that I understand the pack has smart integration like that and heat sensing- this makes it a lot simpler.

Waiting for them to release the new version with USB-C charging. I will definitely buy that if it comes out!

I love the apple one. Got it for travel and everyday use when I don't feel like using a normal charger. Works amazing at keeping your phone around 80% without heating it up. That played a huge factor considering my destinations for traveling are very warm usually. I also use it as a wireless charger for at night, and sometimes for my airpod pros when I'm on the go. One last thing I enjoy is that it uses the same cable as my phone, eliminating the need for another charger.

Love the video. I was curious I’m going to be using my MagSafe Duo Charger at night then this during the day. Would that potentially hurt the battery or? :)

I completely agree with you man, it’s an extender not a battery pack…I bought mine this year for my 13 mini and it’s fantastic, the integration itself is stunning:it knows when to charge,when to stop,when to reprise charging. I use it on my trips and my mini is never out of juice.

Do you guys think they will change the port from lightning to USB-C in the magsafe battery later this year? No sure if should go ahead with it or hold

Thank you I have a mag safe apple battery pack since the iPhone 13 Pro Max and I been using it since then and now I have the same pack on the 15 pro. I have to say it’s worth it. Can’t wait to see a usb pack from apple. Great video! Thank you 🙏🏾

Hey T I got the concept with the Apple MagSafe battery extender and wanted to get your suggestion. I’m a pretty heavy user. I start at about 5:30 am and at about 9:30am I’m at around 40% battery on my iPhone. Then I charge to about 100%, then at around 2:00 I’m around 60% when I leave for work. I plug in again on my Anker on my way home so I’ll have battery to last me the rest of the day. I’m wondering with my usage of the Apple MagSafe will be ok for my usage. I would slap it on at 5:30am and use it until it dies. I’m wondering with my usage when the Apple MagSafe will die. If it dies at 9:30am and I’m at 90% I suppose that’s better than being at 40%. Then when I use my iPhone again until 2:00 when I leave work I might be at 50-60% then I could charge on my way home on my Anker. Reason I don’t like the Anker is because my iPhone can get hot when I’m using it while it’s charging. Thanks!

Found this channel when it was a top hit for an anker mag go I am considering buying and that vid led to here, fantastic and eye opening stuff, thank you

This one hell of a video man, I saw your tweet thread and I didn't really know what the difference between the two. Great comparison and explanation of how they both actually work and what's their best use

Thank you I was about to go buy an Anker battery Pack , question tho does apple battery pack show how much juice the pack still has before it needs recharging 7:54

thank you so much for the explanation! I was using the magsafe battery pack in the wrong way all along and thinking it was a bad device for not charging the phone too much and too slowly! now I know how to use it

Love the Apple MagSafe battery pack and how it keeps the main phone battery consistently at 91%. However since I started using the battery pack full time the auto iCloud backup has stopped and I am having to manually do the backup every second or third day. Is this a consequence of using the battery “extender” and the phone is not recognising it as a “plugged in” power source to kick off the backup?

The Apple MagSafe battery pack is the pure definition of clutch. People hear battery packs and instantly think “it’s gonna charge my phone up fully” but the Apple version is just to manage the battery life on the go.

Thanks so much for this I got one today and was reading reviews on Amazon for a little scared but this video made me feel better

Can’t lie man, you definitely convinced me last video on the Apple MagSafe. I got it, used it how you advised us to use it, And man it’s a gem. PS I know I know price ain’t it…but Apple knows what’s best for its product and this is it.

Wow thank you for the explanation, no one explained it like this. I will give it a go the way you recommended thank you ❤

I got the anker power bank, but you convinced me to get the apple pack too😂 thanks for the video, and the explanations

The MagSafe battery I always assumed was intended as you stated. Apples battery cases did the same thing was well

I have a question if I use the maggo 622 as a charger will my anker powerbank battery deteriorate or does it have a direct current which preserves the battery of the powerbank from power cycles

Have an Anker 622 but stopped using it via magsafe since my phone gets really hot while charging wirelessly.

can i use my phone while the battery pack is on? will it affect the battery? should i wait for September in case they announce a new magsafe battery pack? or get this?

3rd party accessories sometimes generate a lot of heat which wrecks your battery health! The Apple MagSafe is well optimized. I think of it as a bettery extender and not a powerbank.

Why did apple stop selling those?

Would this battery pack be an option if I’m out and about using my phone and it drops to 50%, connect the magsafe power bank and keep going about my day? Or is it better to have it connected when the phone is 100% and then take it of?

Great review. Pls what’s the brand of your phone case??

I love my MagSafe battery. Keeps my phones health in great shape! Thanks for explaining how it should be used

okay, so are you not meant to use the apple battery pack when your phone is battery is low? are you supposed to use the apple battery pack right after you finish charging your phone in the morning? as a battery extender does it need to be on your phone the whole time?

Never had it, or heard anything, BUT glad I found this video and getting the 🍿 and light camera action!!!

i bought one recently and the tiny portable extension really helps stretch there battery life smartly, but i cannot see what firmware it is on, can't see it in general-about section

2:53 that toss to the other hand with the MagSafe was smooth lol

Was debating between these and this helped, Thank you 🙌

Thats a very good explaining tee!

So let me make sure I understood correctly. You would use the apple mag safe charger the whole day and the anker one you use it whenever your phone is low and you just plug it in and then take the anker charger off once you’re happy with the battery percentage you have ?

How do you charge the battery pack ? Does a light come on and stay on? I think I brought a fake one the battery pack is hot when I connect battery Pack and charge my phone when it’s plug in

Totally agree. I have both the apple and ankr. The apple magsafe is an extender. When attached to my phone fully charged, it can top up my 14 pro max easily for more than 6 hrs. With apple's integration into consideration as well, thats why im picking the apple magsafe battery pack.

Got a Anker one and the Apple one. Love the Apple one and using it everyday! The Anker one is more like a backup for Pokémon Go for me😅

Thank you for this review! I film concerts and this product would be a major help!

Finally someone who knows what he is talking about that’s exactly what it’s used for I love mine it’s the best 💯👍🤓

Very useful info. Thanks!

Hi, nice review!! Would you recommend me to buy a magsafe to do uber eats delivery?

This is what I was looking for something that keep my charge up though the day when travelling so can a full charge phone then can go out and not worry about charging till I get back to hotel in evening

Tee made these facts abundantly clear!!

Great review! Keep up the great work!

Can we use Apple magsafe power pack to iphone 15 pro without any issues just like 13 and 14 series?

It’s difficult to explain. But I truely love this product. I’ve had battery packs for years. This one is beautiful. I get compliments. Makes my mini more ergonomic. Acts as a charging base.

It‘s like you say. 100%. I use it with my 13 mini and it works so good. It is typical Apple, so good.

lmao the fact most casual Apple fans couldn't comprehend this on its release is staggering to me. Magsafe and this Apple Magsafe battery EXTENDER was so big for Apple that a lot of Android enthusiast applauded it. The fact that iOS can split power consumption on both the battery extender and the phone means there's less wear on the battery health with usage and charging cycles.

Thank you Tee. A true enthusiast; and knows what you’re talking about. 👏🏾🙌🏾

Would love to have a Magsafe Battery PRO with higher battery capacity.

I love my Apple battery pack and it works just like you said! Also it does not heat up my phone. Great video….

yes you got wright and you know I got my beloved iPhone 13 mini and it is soooo perfect with the MagSafe battery pack and I love it day and night, it's so useful for every day and for any matter. thanks for nice video and I love it!❤

Everyone says it’s the best but no one seems to run into the issue I’ve had. It no longer holds a charge nor charges my iPhone even when plugged into a power source. It has a charging light indicator but when I connect to my phone, it says it’s dead even when still plugged in. Apple only recommended to use different outlets and charging bricks but that’s it. Doesn’t look like they’ll cover this defect. Don’t look forward to buying the battery pack again. Anyone recommend a different but RELIABLE brand instead?

Dude. I used to LOVE my MagSafe Battery Pack. It was one of the most beautifully engineered Apple products I had seen when I got it 2 years ago, back when I was rocking an iPhone 12 mini. It worked flawlessly. I left it on the phone 24/7, plugged a lightning cable up to the battery pack to charge both batteries overnight and it would keep my 12 mini at 90% until about 6-7PM most days. More than enough battery to get me through a heavy day and I loved how it preserved my battery health and maximized battery life by keeping it at 90%. But a year or so ago all of a sudden when I unplug the charger (with the battery pack on my phone) it automatically charges to 100% even though that setting is not toggled on in my control center. While it's charging to 100% it's getting hotter, it's wasting more energy so I'm losing battery life, and it's putting more stress on my internal battery. And the only way to get it to stop charging past 90% is to remove the battery pack from the phone and reattach it. Is it the end of the world? No. The battery pack is still good to have if I'm in a pinch and don't have an outlet all day. But it's really annoying most days as many times as I plug in and unplug for CarPlay in my truck throughout the day to have to manually fix this bug every time I unplug. Can you see if your battery pack behaves the same or if this is a bug with my particular device? I've already gotten a warranty replacement from Apple and it does the exact same thing. I've left comments on Apple support communities and submitted a feature request and nobody knows anything about it, the folks working at Apple Stores have no clue how this thing is supposed to work, probably because most people just slap it on for a quick charge in a pinch. But I really liked being able to just leave it on the phone all the time and have the peace of mind of having the maximum possible battery life whenever I happened to need it, and I liked reducing the wear and tear on my internal battery as much as possible. It's been super frustrating having no fix for this for this long when it used to work so freaking well.

If Apple had a combination MagSafe Battery/Wallet, world peace would ensue.

I honestly love mine. I usually just slap it on when I’m at like 30% and don’t worry the rest of the day 👍🏼💯

"let me turn on the overhead projector" dying

Not to mention the Apple MagSafe Battery keeps your iPhone a lot cooler. I have seen some Anker Battery Packs to get extremely hot and wear down the internal iPhone Battery.

but definitely not usable on hot climate like in Asia, most of the time when I'm on the go, the magsafe pack never charge due to heat, I have to put it stationary in cooler environment for it to charge, I can't even use it at the same time.

Thanks for the informational video. I now know more about my Apple battery pack.

i have apple battery pack and do use it as just an extension, but still cannot justify its price for what it does. i only have it cuz i got it as a gift, i would not buy this with my own money unless it is on sale or something. i do agree with Tee that this is just an extension, not a charger that will get ur phone back up to 100%, but yeah that apple premium price is not right.

Brother. Esr or anker. 622. Which is best choice?

Preach!!!! Absolutely right, and how I use it!!!

As an iPhone 13 mini user I AGREE I just leave it on 24/7 and charge my phone like normal when I need to. It’s a battery EXTENDER not a back up emergency battery !

This man is absolutely correct because charging to 100% is proven to be worse for the battery longevity than keeping at around 80-90%. Most EV manufacturers even recommend keeping the battery charge between 20-80%. So that means to keep your battery lasting a long time on an EV, you’re really only looking at 60-70% of the rated range

When you make your livelihood as a tech reviewer, Apple threatens you for giving anything but glowing reviews of its products.

i get it after watching and it makes sense bc i was like, my phone didnt charge more than two percent but lasted for the whole day that way tho

Great video... first time finding your content. Subbed instantly.

I already know thanks to you I’m going to get one before the year is over with

I couldn’t agree more. Somehow this thing improved my life. No more anxiety of my iPhone running out of battery. For example; I have school every morning at 8:10. When I use my iPhone during the night maybe 1 or 2 hours before going to bed, I have no more time to charge it. But because the Apple MagSafe Battery Pack is charged, I can just stick that to the back of the phone in the morning.

we need an updated version with the USB C now for the iPhone 15

Got mine for my iPhone 13. Perfect for Travelling. The best Magsafe Battery Pack

Best video I’ve seen about the MagSafe debate, Thanks for breaking it down Tee - I’m getting the Apple

Ok, so 2 things. 1. Thank you for the explanation! I just got my Apple battery pack today and we’re going to see how this goes. 2. Let’s all take shots every time “Battery Pack” is said. 👍 lol. Thanks for the video!

Works like the old apple battery cases, which i still use on my iPhone 11 Pro Max.

My battery health is bad. That’s why I’m looking for this lol. Went for the Anker 633

Ty for being knowledgeable!!!

I agree with you about rationale of using Apple MagSafe which we should not use like a high capacity power bank.

Bro, have you tried the Duracell 5000mh pack. The Micro5?

My apple MagSafe charger doesn’t show the charge past 90% option anymore has apple removed this feature?

I think that the anker magsafe charger is pointless because when it charges it gets super hot so you don’t want to use it while your using your phone and if your going to use it while your not using your phone a normal power bank is better because they are more efficient and have a larger capacity

Can you pls share the link for this Anker?

Nicely worded said keep it up 👍

Great job great delivery!

Bro, I don’t know if they’ll ever get it no matter how many times you try to explain it 🤷🏾‍♂️. I love mine though since your first video 👍🏾

Bought this thing first day it was released for $100 …. They are cheaper now that Apple has discontinued them because of the lightning cable port

What phone case are you using?

So , does there is any other brand , do the same act as iphone premium battery ?

I prefer an anker with PD charging over type C so I can can charge from 40 to 80 percent fast and put it back in my pocket. That’s the use case I prefer I also don’t care about battery degradation because I get a new battery every year

What would sell me on this is if the back side of the charger has magsafe so I could use it with my magsafe car vent mount. Need it for work.
