I just got this from my prime day haul. The previous 1000 MagGo was one of my favourite purchases of last year and I loved it for everyday use since day one. It was a bit bulky at first but it was always reliable and pretty quick for a portable wireless charger. So I had all the reasons to be exited for this one.. after a days use, I’m super bummed to be completely honest. It’s not charging my phone faster by any means and I actually had it stop charging my phone after like 20mins of charging my phone due to overheating. Granted my phone was almost dead and already hot before I slapped it on and was still using it to browse the we but I used to do this all the time with the previous model all the time and never once had it fail me. And it barely charged my phone in that 20mins. Im hoping that this was some odd case and that it works fine from here on out so I’ll keep y’all posted. Also testing out the power bank nano.
That’s really odd. I think you might’ve gotten a bad unit. Mine definitely charges noticeably faster than a regular MagSafe battery pack and doesn’t really get uncomfortably hot either. I would try to get a replacement.
@@Brians_tech yeah, I’m gonna check out all the solutions a available before scraping this purchase. I rarely get hyped for things but the 633 was such an awesome edc/life hack.. the 15w and 27w usbc bump up seemed amazing on paper so I’ll keep testing them for a bit.
Remember, use this battery not to charge the phone when the battery it’s almost dying because it’s going to get really hot. It’s nice to have 15w on iPhone but 15w gets hot. BUT, it gets less hot than Qi v1
Support said I can use my iPhone wireless charger to charge this, but I have not been able to??? “Yes, the Anker MagGo Power Bank (10,000mAh, 15W) can be charged wirelessly using an iPhone wireless charger. The MagGo Power Bank is designed to support wireless charging, and it can be charged wirelessly using any Qi-compatible wireless charger, including iPhone wireless chargers.”
What I cannot understand is the Alogic Lift 4 in 1 equivalent without digital screen is fast charge and only 120grams and this is 250gms.🤷♂️ That can make a difference for travelling.
Awesome video! Thanks for doing the review! Do you know by chance if this device offers pass through charging while charging the powerbank and using the qi2 wireless charger?
Not sure you understand how these things work, but I don’t expect you to because you haven’t been in the position before, so let me explain: Anker sent this to me (and other creators) simply for review. I wasn’t paid for this video, nor was I asked to give any kind of “good review”. I make it very clear that all of my reviews are completely honest and my thoughts and opinions. My audience comes in first place to me, not a brand or anything else. My review here was 100% genuine. I still use this Qi2 battery pack daily or almost daily. It’s my favorite battery pack that I have, which stands by my review since I have it such a great review. Hope that helps clear things up for you. Thanks for watching.
@@Brians_tech I know exactly how this works and it's like you said. This does'n't mean you don't favor the product so the company will send you other stuff in the future... All the creators are doing it. No biggy.
My power bank arrived and it looks awesome. The only complaint is the material that scratches so easily that I haven't even used it and it already looks used. They could have rubberized that part at least on the side where it is charged, as Xiaomi did on its wireless power bank. Ok, it will be used, but let's make it durable a little bit
I got the MagGo 10000. It'a a great battery but still have a lot flaws. 1st it does not fit the 6.1" iPhone 15 Pro, only the Max. The battery is longer than the 15 Pro when mounted on the phone. 2nd is the build quality. The Charging Pad face of the power bank does not stay flat on the phone when charging, the surface has irregularities (bad quality) and the lower part where the second magnet is located has always a 2-3 millimeters raise from the glass back of the phone. 3rd, on the iPhone 15 Pro it starts to charge with 15 Watts but after 30-40 mins goes all the way down to 5-6 Watts.
I understand about the 6.1” model. However, I don’t have that experience with it laying flat. Maybe where the kickstand is, but otherwise I wouldn’t say it’s bad.
@@Brians_tech Just lay it on a glass table or plain surface, and press each side, you will see it....people also see this problem when they try to fit them on matte tough-plastic cases, the lover part just slips on the sides because of this.
What about the "Belkin BoostCharge Pro Wireless Power Bank 10K w/ Qi2, MagSafe Compatible + Built-in Pop-up Kickstand" that just launched into the market? Would you pls do a comparison of these two? Thanks!
Do I need to press the button constantly to charge with this power bank? I want to use it as a wireless charger but don't want to press the button all the time. I have a similar Baseus power bank, and it doesn't start wireless charging automatically after magnetizing; I have to press the button.
Hey Brian…another excellent video, I really enjoy your content! I already own the Anker 633, which is also 10,000mAh, so I will not be purchasing the Anker MagGo for the additional bells and whistles. Keep up the great work!
Yes. It IS the best wireless powerbank, no doubt about that. I love it. The only thing that could be a downside in some cases is the actual weight & size; it can be too big/heavy for some users. Not my case though. :)
@@Brians_tech i found the problem! Yes amazon does not have them in stock anymore. But i tried using your link…. But that took me to the american site. I needed to switch to the europe one
Say my phone is already at 80% charge and I no longer want the maggo to charge the phone anymore. Is it possible to turn it off while it is attached to the iPhone?
Im returning mine... for the price you can get a iniu 145 watt pd usbc output charger... qi2 is cool but just get a better portable battery pack and an independent mag safe charger from apple... you get better use from a multipurpose power bank ie laptop steamdeck charging
You can carry any battery bank UP TO 100 wh (that is almost equivalent to 27000 mah, based on 3.7V) . You can find the mah and V information on your battery bank.
It is quite important because it tells you how long you have until your battery pack dies. People don’t necessarily care about power output, instead they care about getting their phone back to 100% and in the end, that will happen. Overrated now?

Not this battery pack. It doesn’t wirelessly charge.

Awesome video! Thanks for doing the review! Do you know by chance if this device offers pass through charging while charging the powerbank and using the qi2 wireless charger?
It does
Hey bro,
Nice video!! Could you check again n tell me if you could charge the power bank phone together? 7:30
Yes it shows it in the video. Why would it change?
@@Brians_tech coz mine doesn’t charge and it arrived today? So i wanna cross check! Thanks for replying
These should work on android with "magsafe" cases, or adapters, right?
Yep, as long as the phone supports wireless charging.
It`s kind of obvious that Anker sent you this for a favourable review... aand you are not the only one...

Even my charger got a display.
Yeah but too bad wireless charging still trash
I stopped using mine after a month. It overheats a lot and I lost 5% of my 15 Pro Max’s battery health in less than a month.

What adapter/brick do you use to charge this? Is there like a max limit of watts for the adapter?
You can use pretty much anything 20w and up. Less than that may not be enough power.
@@Brians_tech thanks man! U deserve a subscribe
You can not charge the iPhone 15 Pro Max Nearly 2 Times with it. you can calculate it and its only 1.4 times. I have to use the factor 0,62

What's the best magsafe powerbank for iPhone 15 pro?
wired actually up to the 27W
I have this in white. It’s is the best MagSafe charging bank.
Yeah it’s great. I’ve been loving it.
Can i charge the power bank with the 30w adapter for iphone
Yes
Is it hot when using wireless charge?
Not really
I love this powerbank so much - i had the first Gen first and loved it so much - when i saw it now can do 15W i Bought it
Magnets are joke. Does not hold to the phone in your pocket
Magnets are fine, not perfect but easily manageable. Overheating is a bitch tho.
@Image1Nation mine doesn’t really get too hot
What about the "Belkin BoostCharge Pro Wireless Power Bank 10K w/ Qi2, MagSafe Compatible + Built-in Pop-up Kickstand" that just launched into the market? Would you pls do a comparison of these two? Thanks!
I’ll look into it
Far too big for non max size phones? Only really suits pro max iPhones
does anyone know if it will charge a android phone(samsung) using a magsafe case?
Yes it will
Do I need to press the button constantly to charge with this power bank? I want to use it as a wireless charger but don't want to press the button all the time. I have a similar Baseus power bank, and it doesn't start wireless charging automatically after magnetizing; I have to press the button.
Nope, it starts as soon as you connect it. No press of the button is necessary.
Hey Brian…another excellent video, I really enjoy your content! I already own the Anker 633, which is also 10,000mAh, so I will not be purchasing the Anker MagGo for the additional bells and whistles. Keep up the great work!
Thank you!! And I understand. Whatever works is the best thing for you anyways. If it isn’t broken, no need to fix it, as they say 😂
Yes. It IS the best wireless powerbank, no doubt about that. I love it.
The only thing that could be a downside in some cases is the actual weight & size; it can be too big/heavy for some users. Not my case though. :)
So I can charge my phone on the magsafe and Apple Watch via usb c port? And can you charge AirPods Pro 2nd gen on the MagSafe?
Yep exactly
should display when it’s fast charging
Can a s23ultra still utilise the 15w fast wireless charging? Even without the qi2
Yes as long as it’s rated for at least 15w charging
is magnetic good on this battery? i got a mophie wireless battery pack i feel like magnetic is very weak to me.
They’re not the greatest, but they work. Still, if you bump it, it’ll probably disconnect.
Is the hinge improved? My 633’s hinge broke within half year and I am only using 13 pro not pro max.
Seems to be pretty good. Supports the weight of the phone and battery pack well.
For 12 mini phone work
can i turn off the power bank in case i don't use it yet? I just want to use a stand. thank you!
Yes you can. When you attach it, it automatically turns on but you can click the button and turn it off.
@@Brians_tech thanks 🫡
Damn, i can not even buy this where i live (Belgium)
That’s unfortunate. You can’t from their website or from Amazon?
@@Brians_tech i found the problem! Yes amazon does not have them in stock anymore. But i tried using your link…. But that took me to the american site. I needed to switch to the europe one
Good made video, thanks.
TOO BIG
iPhone 15 pro max by magsafe 0 to 100 in how many hours will be full ?
About 2:15-2:30, depending on if you’re using the phone heavily or not while it’s charging
I think I see the new Bullstrap contemporary case lol
👀👀 maybe.... lol
Does anyone know how this fits on the 15 pro non max version? Is it awkward?
No it just takes up more space on the phone itself because the phone is smaller. It doesn’t hang off the phone or anything like that.
Say my phone is already at 80% charge and I no longer want the maggo to charge the phone anymore. Is it possible to turn it off while it is attached to the iPhone?
Yep, you just click the button and it should turn off.
Also turn on optimized charging from your phone’s settings. It will learn your charging pattern and reduce charging after 80%.
@@Image1Nation thanks for the tip!
Nice case… Pls share the link for the case.

Too thick for my taste.
Yeah makes sense. But for 10k mah and Qi2, I’ll take it
Can you charge other things like iPads or computers?
With the USB C port you can. Computers I don’t think it’s powerful enough to charge, but it may charge your iPad, if that’s powerful enough.
Can i use it to charge my ipad pro as well ?
Yep! Just through the USB C port
@@Brians_tech thanks 😊
Will this pass TSA when travel?
Yes in carry-on.
You can carry any battery bank UP TO 100 wh (that is almost equivalent to 27000 mah, based on 3.7V) . You can find the mah and V information on your battery bank.
How’s bad does it heat up/
Same question...@@noelnolasco7305
can it charge two devices at same time one by MagSafe one by wire
Yes
It’s overrated. It should show how much output is going to your phone. It just shows the time left to empty. What good is that?
It is quite important because it tells you how long you have until your battery pack dies.
People don’t necessarily care about power output, instead they care about getting their phone back to 100% and in the end, that will happen.
Overrated now?
Its Not overrated there is Nothing Else like that available
The fact you won’t reply proves that you are overrated. People have clearly shown why you are wrong.
And it doesn't even fast wireles charge android phones!
@@corey7219 works just fine for my phone.
