It’s not often that you see many devices these days that surprise you. Android manufacturers are one of the most ambitious and versatile OEMs in the tech industry. From foldable and flip phones to smartwatches, nothing is out of bounds. But when one makes something for a protocol that also works on iPhones, you take notice.
OnePlus is not as well known in the consumer market as say Samsung or Google, but they consistently push the industry forward. The latest accessory from the company is MagSafe and Qi2 battery pack. This slim, magnetic battery power bank has immediately become one of my essential options for a space in my backpack.
The OnePlus Slim Magnetic Power Bank is available in a single size and houses, 5000mAh of juice. While this may not be as much recharge power as many competitors, it’s enough to get you through a full charge of the iPhone or most other smartphones. This includes the new OnePlus 13 with its magnetic backplates.
The sleek profile of the OnePlus Slim makes it perfect to travel with. It becomes nearly invisible in a backpack or carry one and can be stowed away in almost any area. Even better, it’s damn near no bulk added when you throw it in your pants pocket as well. I love this especially as I hate adding that bulging power bank to my phone while in my pocket while on the go, but this isn’t an issue with the OnePlus Slim.
OnePlus had all your travel needs in mind while designing the 0.88cm charger. The aerospace grade aluminum paired with a NTC thermal sensor, you have all the safety features to rest assured you’re going to fly without issue. OnePlus promises the Slim Magnetic Charger is compliant with all airlines and bullet trains to make sure your phone and bank batteries meet the standards of safety.
Lastly, there’s a handy LED display to make sure you know that the Slim power bank is running out of juice as well. Recharging takes less than an hour, and then you are ready for your next adventure. The new OnePlus Slim Magnetic Power Bank is available from OnePlus’ website for just $70 in Silver Grey.
