Apple MagSafe Battery Pack has been launched for the iPhone 12 series to provide on-the-go wireless charging on the latest iPhone models.
Apple MagSafe Battery Pack attaches magnetically to the back of the iPhone to provide an additional battery life. The battery pack is compatible with all the iPhone 12 models.
Apple has apparently been working on the MagSafe Battery Pack for some time. Unlike the battery cases meant for older iPhone models that had a Lightning connector for charging, the new battery pack carries magnets that are aligned to fit with iPhone 12 Series to offer wireless charging while on-the-go. It starts charging the iPhone once attached.
Users can also plug a Lightning cable into the MagSafe Battery Pack to charge the pack alongside simultaneously passing the current to the attached iPhone.Your iPhone, however, needs to run on at least iOS 14.7 for showing the charging status virtually on the screen.
Apple has not yet provided any details on how much additional battery life you would get from the MagSafe Battery Pack. But nonetheless, one of the images of the battery pack available on the Apple site shows that it has a 1,460mAh (7.62V, 11.13Wh) battery.
The Apple MagSafe Battery Pack carries a price tag of Rs. 10,900 in India ($99 in the US). It is currently available for orders in the US, with first deliveries starting July 19. The Apple India online store has also listed the battery pack to suggest that it would soon be available in the country as well.
