What Anker’s New MagGo Plus Magnetic Power Bank Is
Anker’s Nano Power Bank (MagGo Plus) is a 10,000mAh magnetic power bank that combines Qi2 wireless charging and a fire‑resistant lithium‑ion battery design to deliver safer, higher‑speed portable charging for modern smartphones in a slim, travel‑friendly body. At its core, this 10000mAh charger targets people who rely on magnetic power bank accessories but worry about heat, swelling, or reliability over time. The MagGo Plus supports Qi2‑certified 15W magnetic wireless charging for compatible phones, along with 30W USB‑C wired output for faster top‑ups or small devices such as tablets and earbuds. Measuring 15mm thick and weighing 215g, it aims to balance capacity, speed, and pocketability while offering an upgraded internal battery management system, health monitoring through Anker’s app, and hardware designed to contain heat more effectively than typical portable chargers.
Fire‑Resistant Battery Tech and Safety Monitoring
The standout change in Anker’s latest magnetic power bank is its focus on safer lithium‑ion power rather than experimental chemistries. Anker continues to use what it calls Neo Lithium‑Ion cells, supplied by ATL, arguing that alternatives like solid‑state and sodium‑ion are still too heavy and bulky for pocket‑sized power banks. To address rising concerns about portable charger fires, the MagGo Plus adds a fire‑resistant chassis, an aluminum alloy heat dissipation layer, and high‑density graphene to spread and shed heat during heavy charging. According to Anker, this combination allows it to keep standard lithium‑ion while improving thermal control and travel friendliness. Inside, a battery management system logs voltage and cell data over time. Users can plug the power bank into a phone via USB‑C and check battery health and an estimated replacement window through Anker’s mobile app, which makes long‑term safety more transparent.
Charging Performance: 15W Wireless and 30W Wired
On the performance side, the Nano Power Bank (MagGo Plus) positions itself as a capable daily 10000mAh charger. Qi2 certification enables up to 15W magnetic wireless charging, which is particularly useful for compatible iPhones from the 12 series onward running iOS 17.4 or later, with the iPhone 12 mini, 13 mini, and 16e excluded. For faster, more efficient top‑ups, the single USB‑C port delivers up to 30W wired output and supports 30W input to recharge the power bank itself. When charging two devices at once, the magnetic power bank splits power more conservatively, limiting wired output to 12W and wireless output to 5W to manage heat and protect both the internal cells and connected devices. This mix of moderate‑speed wireless charging and higher‑speed wired charging makes the MagGo Plus versatile enough for phones, earbuds, and even small tablets in a pinch.
Design, Price, and Ecosystem Fit
The MagGo Plus aims at the premium end of the wireless charging market, combining a slim 15mm profile with a 10,000mAh capacity and a weight of 215g. Its flat, phone‑sized footprint is designed to sit neatly behind compatible smartphones without adding excessive bulk, making it easier to hold while charging or slide into a bag. The power bank is available in black, with a white version scheduled to follow later. Anker lists the price at ¥11,990, which it equates to roughly USD 75 (approx. RM350), placing it among higher‑end magnetic power bank options that emphasise safety and ecosystem features rather than being the cheapest possible 10000mAh charger. As more phones adopt Qi2 and USB‑C, the MagGo Plus is positioned as a single, multi‑device accessory that can wirelessly top up phones while still offering 30W wired support for other modern gadgets.
