13.1 mm and 145 g, the real strength of this power bank
At 13.1 mm thick and 145 g, this power bank remains one of the strongest arguments in its category: it genuinely disappears on the back of an iPhone and in a pocket, without throwing it off balance. The soft-touch silicone finish, the magnet that aligns the phone firmly, and the compact format all come through consistently across the information available.
A 60 W cable included, but not at full power with this battery
A 0.5 m USB-C cable rated up to 60 W is included in the box, a genuine plus rarely offered at this price point. One useful clarification is needed, though: the power bank itself caps at 15 W over cable, so the cable's 60 W is never actually used at full power with this particular device. The real value of that figure lies elsewhere: the cable stays usable at full speed with a charger or another, more powerful device, once it is no longer needed here.
Real heat build-up during extended wireless charging
Magnetic wireless charging comes with a noticeable warming of both the case and the phone, a behaviour the manufacturer itself describes as normal for this type of charging. During extended, uninterrupted use, this warming can become significant, enough to prompt cutting the charge short as a precaution before it finishes, rather than because of an automatic safety cut-off kicking in. No safety cut-off, damage or incident is reported otherwise: this is a real point to keep in mind, not an established danger signal.
A silicone coating that shows signs of rapid wear
The silicone coating on the case shows signs of wear within about a week of use, and picks up dust more easily than the faux-leather finish on a direct competitor. Overall build quality is also perceived as a notch below that competitor. This is a real but isolated signal, not corroborated by another independent source despite a targeted search: to be treated as a point to watch rather than as an established manufacturing defect.
iPhone 16 and 17: the French product page has not caught up
The official French product page for this item limits its listed compatibility to the iPhone 12 through 15, without mentioning the iPhone 16 and 17. Yet the page for the same product on the North American market explicitly lists the iPhone 16, 17 and Air, as does the manufacturer's Japanese store, and even the Amazon.fr page this product page links to shows "iPhone 17 16 15 14 13" in its own title. Since MagSafe technology relies on a mechanical standard identical from one generation to the next, nothing indicates a real compatibility problem with recent iPhones: this looks more like a French page that simply has not been updated than an actual technical limit. Written confirmation from the seller remains the safest way to remove any doubt before buying for an iPhone 16 or 17.
One charge, as advertised, no overstatement
The advertised 5000 mAh (around 18.5 Wh) works out to roughly one full smartphone charge, and this promise holds up rather than falls short: recharging an iPhone halfway uses about half the power bank's capacity, consistent with a full charge for the entire available capacity. Given the usual conversion losses in wireless charging, this result lines up fairly closely with the actual capacity of a recent iPhone battery: the promise is neither inflated nor optimistic.
The catalogue price of 39.99 € also stays consistent over time, with no spectacular discount episode that would suggest an artificially inflated reference price.
Who it suits, and who it does not
This power bank suits anyone who wants the thinnest and lightest option in its category for a daily MagSafe top-up, with a useful cable included in the box and a capacity promise that is honestly kept. The price stays consistent with what it offers.
It suits less well anyone after the fastest possible wireless charging, since 7.5 W stays modest next to the 15 W offered by several direct competitors, or anyone who prioritises build quality perceived as the most robust, a point where it remains perceived as a notch below a direct competitor.
