Apple has started selling a magnetic battery pack called MagSafe battery pack for iPhone 12 models on Apple’s online store.
Compatible phones contain magnets on the back of the device, which can be used to attach accessories such as the MagSafe.
MagSafe ensures that the charger and the charging coils of the iPhone are coordinated.
The pack works with the iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max, but requires iOS 14.7 or later.
It charges the iPhone with 5W if it is not connected, or 15W if it is connected.
The MagSafe Battery Pack itself can be charged with up to 15W. If users connect it to an iPhone and charge both at the same time, it can be charged with 20W.
The battery costs $99 on Apple’s website.
