Can be charged by attaching it to the back of the iPhone 12 series
“PowerCore Magnetic 5K Wireless Power Bank” that Anker started selling on Amazon in the United States is a product that was announced to be released in February at CES2021, and it is characterized by being able to be magnetically attached to the back of the iPhone 12 series and charged.
With a battery capacity of 5,000mAh, the iPhone 12 mini can be fully charged, the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro can be charged from 0% to about 95%, and the iPhone 12 Pro Max can be charged up to about 75%.
However, unlike Apple’s MagSafe charger, which allows wireless charging with a maximum output of 15W, the maximum output of the “PowerCore Magnetic 5K Wireless Power Bank” is limited to 5W.
The selling price in the United States is about 4,200 yen
At the time of writing this article, the sales page of Amazon in the United States can not be browsed, but according to MacRumors, the selling price is 39.99 dollars (about 4,200 yen), and it was announced that it will be delivered in the middle of April.
Eventually, sales are expected to begin in Japan as well.
Will Apple also release a genuine battery case?
Apple currently does not sell the genuine battery case “Smart Battery Case” for iPhone 12.
However, starting with iOS 14.5 Beta, a statement has been found indicating that Apple is preparing a MagSafe-enabled battery pack.
