Does this work with wireless charging or only wired?

This power bank does not support wireless charging. It uses a built-in USB-C cable that plugs directly into your device for faster, more efficient wired charging. The magnetic attachment is for secure holding only.

Can I charge the power bank and my phone at the same time?

Yes. The POCKET 5 supports pass-through charging, so you can plug your phone into the built-in cable while the power bank itself recharges through the USB-C port.

Will the magnets work with my phone case?

The magnetic attachment works with MagSafe-compatible phones and cases. If your case is not MagSafe-enabled or is very thick, the magnetic hold may be weaker or may not work.

How many times will this fully charge my phone?

With a 5,000mAh capacity, the POCKET 5 typically provides one full charge for most smartphones. Larger phones with bigger batteries may receive less than a complete charge, while smaller phones may get slightly more.

Is the built-in cable replaceable if it gets damaged?

No. The USB-C cable is permanently integrated into the power bank and cannot be removed or replaced. When not in use, it secures into its port to protect it from wear.

Magnetic power bank with plug-in cable for faster, more efficient charging

Most magnetic power banks trade speed for convenience, using wireless charging that's slower, less efficient, and generates heat. This one keeps the snap-on simplicity but switches to a built-in wired cable, delivering the full 22.5W that a direct connection allows. You get the hands-free hold of a magnetic pack with none of the compromises that come with induction charging. That matters when you need a real top-up in a short window—waiting for wireless to trickle power into your phone is frustrating when a cable would finish the job faster. This design suits anyone who values the stability of magnetic carry but refuses to accept the performance hit that usually comes with it.

Good gift when

People who want magnetic convenience without wireless charging slowdowns
Travelers who need slim, reliable backup power without extra cables
Anyone with a MagSafe-compatible phone who values fast charging
Commuters looking for pocket-friendly power that stays put

Skip it if Only useful if you have a MagSafe-compatible phone or case; otherwise, the magnetic feature provides no benefit and you're left with a standard wired power bank.

The details

This power bank combines the snap-on ease of magnetic attachment with the speed and efficiency of a direct cable connection. Instead of relying on wireless induction—which runs slower and generates more heat—it uses a built-in USB-C cable that plugs straight into your device for up to 22.5W of wired power. The magnets hold it firmly against the back of your phone, keeping everything stable in your pocket or bag, while the cable delivers a full 5,000mAh charge without the energy loss that comes with wireless.

The integrated cable tucks neatly into its own port when you're not using it, so there's nothing dangling or getting tangled. You can charge two devices at once using both the built-in cable and the USB-C port, or run pass-through charging to top up your phone while the bank itself recharges. Four LED indicators show remaining capacity at a glance, and the aluminum alloy body carries an IPX7 waterproof rating for rain, spills, and everyday durability.

At just 0.35 inches thick and 4.41 ounces, it stays slim enough to carry without bulk. The magnetic hold works with MagSafe-compatible phones and cases, and the wired connection means you get consistent, efficient charging every time—no alignment fuss, no slow trickle. It's built for people who want the convenience of magnetic carry but won't compromise on charging speed.
