Many people will be traveling this Memorial Day weekend as the summer unofficially gets underway. It’s important to keep smartphone, tablet and laptop batteries topped up, but you can’t always rely on finding an outlet as you’re on the move. So it’s always useful to have a power bank on hand. As luck would have it, Anker’s power banks are on sale for up to 50 percent off. The Anker MagGo Power Bank 10K, for instance, has dropped to $70. That’s $20 off the usual price.
Our favorite MagSafe power bank is $20 off ahead of Memorial Day.
This is our pick for the best MagSafe power bank so if you have an iPhone 12 or later, it’s definitely worth considering. It’s Qi2 certified, so it can wirelessly charge other supported devices as well, albeit at a slower rate than the 15W speed you’ll get on a MagSafe-ready iPhone.
Anker claims the MagGo Power Bank can wirelessly charge an iPhone 15 from zero to 50 percent capacity in 44 minutes. With a 10,000mAh capacity, it can charge an iPhone 15 Pro up to 1.8 times over. It has a built-in stand, so you can prop up your phone to watch videos on a train or plane as it charges. There’s also a smart display that’ll show you the battery level and remaining usage time of the power bank.
Elsewhere, you can snap up the Anker Prime Power Bank for a record low of $125. That’s $55 less than the usual price. This model has a far larger capacity than the MagSafe offering at 27,650mAh — that’s enough to charge a 13-inch, M2-powered MacBook Air 1.28 times or an iPhone 14 around 4.67 times, Anker says.
The power bank has fast charging support for multiple devices at the same time via its dual USB-C and single USB-A port array. Anker claims it can charge a 16-inch M2 Pro MacBook Pro to 50 percent in 28 minutes.
In addition, the Anker Magnetic Power Bank 5K is 50 percent off in this sale, having tumbled to $35. This has a smaller capacity of 5,000mAh (which is good for 0.8 full charges of an iPhone 13) and it doesn’t have a screen like the other two models mentioned above. But it’s a handy way to keep your phone’s battery topped up while you’re on the move. It has a built-in kickstand and you can recharge while using it via a USB-C cable.
