Baseus Picogo Power Bank, 0.3" Ultra Slim 5000mAh MagSafe Portable Charger, Card-Size Magnetic Battery Pack with USB-C Braided Cable, Alloy Wireless Charger for iPhone 17 Pro Max/17 Air/16/15/14/13/12

To the point, Baseus rates this pack as having a capacity of 5000 mAh @ 3.6V, equaling 18 watt-hours (Wh). It will output at a “fast charge” power rate of 9V @ 2.22A or 12V @ 1.5A, this should be sufficient for a single recharge, as the latest phones typically have batteries around 17.4 Wh (4500 mAh @ 3.87V). In testing I found this to be accurate, as I could only output and recharge the pack between 1900 and 2000 mAh @ ~9V via USB-C. Regarding recharging the Baseus pack, I tested it with multiple USB adapter technologies (standard/PD, QC 3.0, PowerIQ 3.0, and Adaptive Fast Charging), and they all worked, charging at 9V @ 1.67 A (max) or 5V @ 2.0A (max). The battery pack comes with a short, 12-inch, and stiff USB-C to USB-C braided cable; instructions; and stickers. The silicone cover is a nice feature to avoid scratching your phone; however, it does make it difficult to see all the specifications printed on the pack—importantly, it states an input of 5V @ 3A or 9V @ 1.67A (also listed in the manual). The magnet is incredibly strong, and wireless charging worked with both iPhone and Android phones through cases. The USB cable is an OK size; it's more suitable for recharging the battery pack than charging the phone while being attached, as it extends ~ 6 inches from the phone. Additionally, the location of the USB-C port on the battery pack is off-center, so it makes it difficult to use a phone stand with the cable—it would be enjoyable if the port were centered. Importantly, the pack will disable wireless recharging once the USB-C is connected to a phone, but it can wirelessly charge a phone while charging the battery pack via USB—I, personally, don't plan to do this as I haven't tested temperatures over a typical phone charge duration, and there is nothing stated within the manual or safety instructions about this method. Overall, this pack will output and charge up to the stated 20 watts via USB-C or 5, 7.5, or 15 watts wirelessly. The value proposition is good, as there are a plethora of other MagSafe battery packs on the market; this one is slightly pricier than unknown brands but a better value than others. However, Baseus is a recognizable brand within the phone accessory space, has an excellent website and support pages, and adds holographic authenticity stickers to their products. Additionally, they back the battery pack with a two-year warranty. While battery measurements can be perplexing at times, this is a convenient method for extending the battery life of your phone while you are on the go.

Strong magnet, light weight, charging is fast enough for a wireless charger. Velvet backing ensure your phone won't be scratch if you are not using a case. Manual instructions are so tiny, hard to read, so bring out your handheld magnifier. Overall, its a high quality built that wont hurt your wallet.

First, I got myself a MagSafe phone for xmas (Pixel Snap to be exact) and I wanted a nice wireless magnet charger. This wasn't easy to find. Most had reviews talking about major problems with heat and/or speed of charge. This thing was great in both regards. For a test, I put it on at about 50% charge and stuck it on my side table. I then let it sit for about 10 minutes and measured with Ampere. I was getting about 1000ma charging (or about 5w). That's like an old school charger which is perfectly fine for wireless charging. I would say the power is adequate for the size/usefulness. The size is perfect, my Pixel 10 Pro XL has a little ledge for the cameras and this fills it in perfectly. The quality is very nice. I think it's plastic but looks aluminum. The functionality is dead simple. Just slide it on the magsafe spot and the thing starts charging on its own. One caveat. I put this in my front pocket once and the thing got super hot. I would not recommend you charge it without adequate ventilation. Meaning, sit on the table or put it in a coat pocket at best. Do not have it near your body where it can combine charging heat with your own, it'll get toasty fast! It also won't do much more than 1 more full charge. But that's to be expected. My phone and charger are about 5mAh each. Charging it is very easy. Any USB-c charger will work. I'm not sure if it fast charges to itself, but it's done in a few hours at any rate. I was VERY worried about high heat and very slow charging speed, but both didn't turn out to be a problem at all. The heat is manageable and the speed is not blazing, but fast enough to keep up with whatever you are doing. This extends my phone by about 2x which is amazing if you are neurotic like me about having enough power. It also doesn't feel like you are charging. It just feels like a bit of a thicker phone. I'm impressed and happy with the item.

From the outer packaging to the product design and overall build quality, everything feels very well done. The box presentation is clean and professional, and the device itself looks and feels premium. The materials feel solid, the finish is smooth, and the design is modern and practical. You can tell attention was paid to the details. Overall, I’m very satisfied with both the quality and the experience. It feels like a well-made product from start to finish.

The Baseus Picogo Power Bank in Natural Titanium is impressively slim and convenient, with a 5000mAh MagSafe-ready battery pack that sticks right to the back of my iPhone for easy wireless charging. The card-size design fits comfortably in a pocket or small bag, and the included USB-C braided cable feels sturdy and useful for wired charging too. It doesn’t give a full charge on my 17 Pro, but it’s enough to top up throughout the day when I’m out and about, and the MagSafe alignment makes it simple to snap on without fuss. It fits the 17 Pro perfectly. The alloy finish looks classy and holds up well to daily use, and the overall portability makes it a great companion for travel, errands, or long days away from a wall outlet. For anyone who wants a sleek, lightweight power bank that’s easy to carry and works seamlessly with MagSafe devices, this one hits the mark.
