This looks like Apple Mag Safe battery
0:04
pack, but I assure you it's not. At
0:08
least this is not the original item.
0:11
This is one of the numerous knockoffs
0:14
that are available on the market today.
0:17
And why are we dealing with knockoffs?
0:20
Well, Apple has discontinued the
0:22
original Maxive battery pack and have
0:25
not replaced it with any. Of course,
0:28
they released one for the iPhone Air,
0:31
but it's compatible only with the iPhone
0:33
Air, not with any other iPhone. So, you
0:37
cannot use that with any of your other
0:39
iPhone models. So, if you're looking for
0:42
the best Mags safe power bank or battery
0:45
pack for your iPhone today, you're going
0:48
to have to look towards third party
0:51
manufacturers, third party brands
0:54
because unless you are able to get your
0:56
hands on one of the original products,
1:00
and I doubt that you will find any of
1:02
them brand new. You might find used,
1:05
pre-owned, but I doubt you will find any
1:07
brand new in the market. or you buy one
1:10
of these knockoffs. This one has a USBC
1:13
port instead of a lightning port. That's
1:16
a dead giveaway that it's not from
1:18
Apple, but it looks like the real thing.
1:21
And most importantly,
1:24
it works. They come cheap. If you're
1:27
looking for something affordable to top
1:30
up your iPhone's battery life on the go,
1:33
this actually does a good job.
1:35
Or you look through some well-known
1:37
brands like Anchor, Belin, Basis, U
1:41
Green, Satei, Shaz, ESR, and a number of
1:46
others who produce Mag Safe power banks
1:51
for iPhones. These are your options. I'm
1:53
[clears throat] leaving links in the
1:55
description of this video to some that I
1:57
recommend and that you can explore to
2:00
see if they meet your needs. If you're
2:02
new to Magafe technology and how it
2:04
works, it's pretty much having magnets
2:08
built into the power bank or the charger
2:11
and parallel magnets built into your
2:13
iPhone that allows them to stick
2:17
together and wirelessly charge the
2:21
device. That's pretty much it. So, every
2:23
time you hear Maxive, it's about
2:25
magnetic compatibility, so to speak. The
2:28
magnets tend to be built to a specific
2:31
size and shape, circular and a specific
2:34
size so that these things can fit
2:38
together easily. I hope this video helps
2:42
you. You are not likely to find the
2:45
original Apple iPhone Maxafe battery
2:48
pack in the market. Don't let anyone
2:50
fool you. It's been discontinued by
2:53
Apple for a number of years now and
2:55
there's no way that there's still stock
2:57
of that anywhere on the planet. Thank
3:00
you for watching this video. Do like the
