We found the iPhoneAir have a pretty decent battery life for such a thin and light phone, around 27 hours if you’re continuously streaming videos. But it’s still a phone, arguably your most used device on a daily basis, so you may need to charge it during the day if you use it constantly. This is where Apple iPhone Air MagSafe the battery is coming and it’s currently on sale for $79.
This accessory only works with the iPhone Air, but just like the phone it attaches to, it’s extremely thin at 7.5mm, so it doesn’t add so much bulk when attached that it defeats the point of having a slim phone in the first place. The MagSafe battery isn’t huge at 3,149mAh (enough to add 65% more charge to the Air), but it can wirelessly charge the AirPods Pro 3 which also makes it an even more useful travel companion. You can also charge your iPhone while charging the battery.
At its regular price of $99, the MagSafe battery is an admittedly expensive addition to what is already an expensive phone, but for $20 off, it’s worth considering what Engadget’s Sam Rutherford called an “essential accessory” for some users of its iPhoneAir goodbye.
Many Apple loyalists will still insist on having first-party accessories for their iPhone, but there are also plenty of third-party MagSafe chargers, many of which are considerably cheaper than Apple’s line. Don’t forget to check out our guide for those.
