A live number, not a guess from a row of lights.

The usual magnetic power bank gives you four dots and leaves you to interpret them. This one puts an OLED display on the back, showing input, output and charge level as real figures — so you know exactly how much power is going where, and how much is left.

We chose the metal-bodied version over the more common plastic one because fast wireless charging generates real heat, and metal sheds it instead of holding it against your hand.

Why it earns its place

• An OLED display with real numbers, not ambiguous dots.
• Attaches magnetically and stays, so it works one-handed.
• A captive cable built in, so the right lead is never the one you forgot.
• Two capacities — a slim 5,000mAh, or 10,000mAh for a full day.

Before you choose

It needs a phone with built-in magnets, or a magnetic case — without either, the magnets alone will not hold, and the captive USB-C cable is the way to charge instead. Wireless charging is slower and warmer than wired on any device; this is not unique to this power bank. On flights, power banks travel in hand luggage only, never in the hold — check your airline's policy before you go.
