Magsafe battery pack case7/17/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() The MagSafe Battery’s 11.13Wh compares to the iPhone 12/12 Pro batteries having 10.75Wh.Īnd the iPhone 12 mini has an 8.57Wh battery with the iPhone 12 Pro Max featuring a 14.13Wh battery. Second, the capacity to deliver power over time – watt-hours (Wh) is a better metric to understand what Apple may deliver here. That means it’s likely there are two 1460mAh at about 3.7V for a total of 2920mAh (creating the 7.62V Apple uses on the label). While the raw 1460mAh spec may sound low at first when comparing to other companies that offer around 5000mAh or even the internal 2815mAh of the iPhone 12/12 Pro, here are two things to keep in mind.įirst, Apple’s MagSafe Battery is designed with 7.62V, almost twice the voltage of alternatives on the market. That may be for a few reasons, including that it works with all four iPhone 12 models which all have different sized batteries and we’re talking about wireless charging which includes some loss of power during transfer.īut Apple did reveal the raw capacity and power specs in an image of the battery pack: However, with the MagSafe Battery Pack, Apple doesn’t give any guidance on what to expect as far as charge capacity. For example, with something like the iPhone 11 Smart Battery Case, Apple says it “delivers up to 50% longer battery life.” TL DR: Based on all the specs plus and an efficiency assumption below, we think it’s likely the Apple MagSafe Battery will offer around 75% charge for iPhone 12/12, around 50% charge for iPhone 12 Pro Max and possibly closer to one full charge for the iPhone 12 mini.Īpple is often vague with details around battery specs in its product listings. When using the Battery Pack on the go, Apple says it will charge iPhone 12 at 5W. Interestingly, while the MagSafe Battery Pack does offer up to 15W charging speeds, that only happens when used while plugged into a 20W or higher power brick. Status icons also show up for the new battery pack in the Today View and widgets with iOS 14.7. Like Apple’s Smart Battery Cases, the MagSafe Battery Pack automatically starts charging your iPhone 12 when you attach it to the back of your device with a charge status showing up on the lock screen. Apple recommends charging it with a 20W or higher power adapter via the Lightning port.Īpple also recommends charging the Battery Pack fully before first use. No surprise here but the only thing in the box is the MagSafe Battery Pack itself. iPhone 12 MagSafe Battery Pack tidbits What’s in the box? The official MagSafe Battery priced at a premium $99 comes with other benefits like Apple’s clean design (only in white), up to 15W charging speeds, simultaneous passthrough and reverse charging, and more. It’s been a nine-month wait for Apple’s MagSafe Battery Pack and while we’ve seen a range of third-party MagSafe compatible alternatives launch Apple’s entry marks the first that’s MagSafe official. Simultaneous passthrough and reverse charging. ![]()
