Anker has unveiled its cutting-edge lineup of chargers and accessories for 2024, perfectly tailored to elevate your charging experience. This impressive array includes everything from cables and chargers to sleek desktop stands. We’re excited to showcase some standout items from the new Anker MagGo line, thanks to our friends at the company.
These innovative magnetic devices seamlessly integrate with both MagSafe and the advanced Qi2 wireless standards. Let’s dive into how you can elevate your charging game with these remarkable new products.
Level Up is where we explore the gear that actually makes a difference, whether that’s in how you live, work, or unwind. Each edition brings together standout products, whether tied by brand or by theme, that turn the everyday into something a little more exceptional.
MagGo Power Bank Slim 10K
We’ll start with the simplest of the options. Anker has made a living off power banks, and MagSafe is a great new way to add magnetic mounts to make sure the connection is both wireless and secure. Anker’s MagGo line utilizes this and the new, open Qi2 standard to continue this tradition.
The MagGo Power Bank Slim has an internal battery with a 10,000mAh capacity. This should allow the average smartphone with MagSafe/Qi2 to essentially recharge two full times using this accessory. The magnets are strong, and using both my Pixel 8 (with a MagSafe case) and iPhone 14, I’ve found the MagGo Power Bank Slim stayed snapped to both and offered a seamless charging experience.
The MagGo Power Bank Slim contains plenty of output juice as well as capacity. Since Qi2 devices don’t really exist in the market yet, we’ll cover that MagSafe iPhones can get the maximum 15W of charging. There’s also a USB-C port on the side of the unit that can push 30W to your device for even faster replenishment.
The Anker MagGo Power Bank Slim can be purchased for just $75 via both Anker and Amazon. If you want exclusive colors like Pink Aura and Teal Oasis, you’ll need to hit Anker direct. Amazon buyers will settle for just Black or White.

Anker MagGo Apple Watch Power Bank
The next portable charger from Anker still has MagGo, but with a different twist. The Anker MagGo Apple Watch Power Bank is predictably made for Apple Watch users. The 10,000mAh capacity is dedicated to Apple users with iPhone 14s and newer who also own an Apple Watch.
The obvious thing you’ll notice out of the box is the pop-up Apple Watch charger. This MagGo option is capable of Apple’s full 5 Watts of quick charge that should recharge a Series 9 watch to 50% in around 30 minutes. The charger is certified by Apple to output this maximum charge, just like an official one from the fruit company.
The same is true for the dedicated USB-C cable. For the newer iPhones using the universal charging protocol, you can get a maximum wired charge of up to 30 Watts. Much like the Power Bank Slim, if using it only on a phone, you should get close to two full recharges from the internal battery. Rounding out this charger is the LED status screen on the side. This shows you the remaining capacity and the current charge rates.
The Anker MagGo Apple Watch Power Bank will cost consumers $80 at full retail, but there are some launch discounts at both links below for Anker.com and Amazon. Colorways include Aurora White, Black Stone, Pink Aura, and Teal Oasis. Again, Amazon is limited to just the Black and White variants.

Anker MagGo Wireless Charger Stand with Qi2
Finally, we’ll wrap this Level Up with the latest Anker charging stand. This USB-C power unit can push out the full Qi2 standard, delivering 15 Watts of power to iPhones. This should give you around 30% charge from a fully depleted iPhone 15 Pro in just 20 minutes. Again, the MagGo stand offers a nice snap when the magnets pull your phone into the charger.
That’s not all, though. The Anker MagGo Wireless Charger Stand has unique orientations that make it great for iPhones and AirPods alike. The magnetic “puck” features a fantastic 360-degree swivel mechanism. Turning the phone to activate Apple’s new Standby Mode is just a twist away. Lastly, the puck also tilts to 90 degrees to create a level surface to set a wireless charging-capable AirPods case.
I love how Anker found a way to support both Standby on iPhones and AirPods without having to sacrifice the slim design. Usually, this would have been added in a bulk extension of the stand’s case. The price isn’t terrible, either. At just $36, I think the Anker MagGo Wireless Charger Stand is a steal at our links below.
